Attention, fandom! MegaCon is coming up in less than a month from now and will be at the Orange County Convention Center in (hopefully!) beautiful Orlando, Florida! I will be doing events there for what I believe is the fourth year in a row! I am pretty excited about this year; the Propeller Anime Club will be stepping out of the shadows and we will be showing off what we can do!
I will be hosting several panels and events at the convention in the Anime Events Track. It would be in your best interest to attend them if you happen to be going!
Anime is Already Dead?
Friday, March 12th from 2:30pm – 3:30pm in W224B
Anime in America boomed with tremendous popularity in the beginning of the last decade and by now the bubble has burst. What happened and who is to blame? What about anime has changed over the past ten years? Is there hope for the Japanese import? The founder of the Propeller Anime Club provides insight into this matter and how it will affect anime fandom in the future.
The Panel about Everything!
Friday, March 12th from 4:30pm – 6:00pm in W224B
Everything you should hear about convention culture will be discussed! Convention survival, how to talk to girls, the dos and don’ts of anime conventions, and all the dark secrets of the anime community will be covered!
(Note: I am not an expert on how to talk to girls, but my co-panelists are!)
It’s MANIME! The Manly Anime Panel
Saturday, March 13th from 12:30pm – 1:30pm in W224B
Learn what is to be a true man and makes a manly anime! This one is for fans of series like Fist of the North Star, Berserk, and other testosterone-filled classics! Both old and new anime of manly proportions shall be covered and you will even learn the gospel that is the Twelve Laws of True Man!
(Note: If you don’t go to this panel, then you are already dead!)
That is it for my panels! My club will also be running the Ninja Olympics, the Quickdraw! Contest, and Karaoke on Sunday! The anime events schedule looks better than ever this year at MegaCon so definitely check out as much as you can while you enjoy the convention. See you guys in March!
