Sakura-Con 2010: Finalised Facts, Disappointment
So, I need to kill some incentives spectacularly now...
Okay, so on the plus side, it looks like 3:00pm on Saturday, April 3rd at the ground-floor couches is a lock and essentially everyone can make it there. Excellent. So we're gonna finalise that.
On the other hand, no corgi.
Sadly, Panda will not be making it to the con' this year, and as such shall not be bringing her dog to see us. She's going to Canada instead.
Yeah, think about that.
All is not lost, though. We've plans to hook up on Friday so she can still unload all the cool free stuff to me so I can bring it to everyone who comes out to the meet-up. So we'll still have that.
Other than that, any other questions or stuff that pop up regarding Sakura-Con can be fielded over at the Conventionist World. So, for example, if anyone doesn't know where the ground floor couches are, we can fill you in on that.
So yes, should be fun. Hope to see lots of you there!
Punch and pie.
Caption Battle (MMM): Two Out Of Three Congoers Agree...
"It's that time again..."
"To buy more interlacing?"
"To interlace a package of bacon?"
"No... it's time for the final March Member Madness(TM) caption battle!"
But first, last week's winners:
In third place with an historically inclined try: cowboysean!
The long lost portion of the Beatles' Abbey Road album cover found at an anime convention.
In second place because the green machine gonna rock the town without being seen: Sakaki Sakura!
Go, Ninja, Go, Ninja, GO!
And in the coveted first place, with an all-encompassing third-degree burn... Shinmaru!
TheO's members get more "perfects" and "greats" in a single DDR session than Masashi Kishimoto will ever get for writing Naruto.
Fun times. And now, sadly, we bring March Member Madness(TM) to its conclusion... with one random girl and a couple of jerks...
This photo comes courtesy of yours truly from Sakura-Con 2008 in Seattle, Washington. On the left is Miss Anonymous; to her right are The Podcasters, Batou (left) and Ichigo (right)! Told ya the final image was gonna be epic:
You know the drill: type up the funniest, wittiest, most original caption you can think of for the screencap above in the comments below. Also, if any of you would like some tips on writing a great caption, you can find those here.
And like always, theOtaku is open to all submissions and suggestions for weekly feature content. You have a screencap you want used, you can PM me and we can do somethin' about it. So good luck, and remember: I'm going to Sakura-Con next week, so if caption battle is late, that's my excuse. So hah.
theOtaku.com Anime Podcast VII - Ep. 22
Okay, Asian Dust is officially the scariest sounding thing I have ever heard of. For this week, anyway. I mean, just listen to that man! Scary stuff, I tell ya... good times.

Sakura-Con 2010: Let's Do This!
theOtaku.com is gearing up for Sakura-Con 2010 in Seattle, Washington once again, and so should you! We're gonna be there, and by virtue of tradition, posterity, and just plain audacity, we feel that you, the member, should be there as well.
This is up far later than usual for planning this. My bad. I think I shall copy-paste:
Reasons for coming out:
- This is one of the site's best meet-ups in terms of turnout for both members and staff-types.
- The Amazing Panda will be there!
- The Amazing Panda will be bringing a buttload of free giveaways!
- The Amazing Panda will be bringing her corgi cosplaying as Ein!
- I'm not going to quiz anyone on Canadian trivia this year!
- Seriously! Corgi! What more needs to be said?!
Y'know what'd suck? If it turned out Gail doesn't bring Ashton the corgi with her. That'd kill the incentives spectacularly...
Planning is underway over at the Conventionist world as we speak. So let's show everyone how awesome the northwesters (and the Canadian southwesters) are and let's have some fun.
Remember! Corgi!
