Update 3/11/12: We've hit our goal! thank you all so much!
AnimeBoston 2012, in addition to being the generally awesome con it always is, is going to be super special for Touhou fans! In addition to what will assuredly be an even bigger turnout than last year's already impressive Touhou showing, we should be seeing not one, but two potential Touhou guests!
The first is the person referenced in the thread topic. A few months ago, several of us in #conmeido got together, formulated the idea for bringing a Touhou guest to America, dredging up the courage to be willing to sponsor said guest should we not be able to get a con to sponsor them for us, and after a quick e-mail exchange with our first choice, we already had someone willing to visit. Having kept this contained to #conmeido until today, it is with great pleasure I announce that Hitoshi Mizuki, mangaka and main character of Hang in There, Kogasa-san!, has agreed to come to America and attend a convention! Our group generally agreed on AnimeBoston after other potential opportunities fell through, and so we begin the proper planning of getting him a plane ticket and a room.
Now, this stuff is obviously not cheap, and does not include whatever else he'll need while here (con badge, at the very least). Given this, we are currently planning to raise $2500 in order to safely get him over here with a comfortable cushion should something go amiss. We will try to cover as much of that as we can, but that's a fair sum of money, so we turn to you, other AnimeBoston attendees. If you would like to help us out, we will gladly take whatever you are willing and able to donate (osaise~n~). See the next post for the proper information; Gandalph will be covering the plane ticket, so all PayPal donations should be funneled to him. (I'll be covering the room and may nick a tiny bit of comp off of his collective depending on how much we can raise.) Make sure to send any donation as a Gift, since this is, after all, a gift to Hitoshi (also to ensure you avoid PayPal fees).
Our second potential guest at least won't require our direct assistance. After being informed that Mizuki-san was very likely to be at AnimeBoston, LeoModesto, operator of and artist for the Ask Udonge tumblr account, has become very interested in attending as well! While this is not a thing set in stone, AnimeBoston is one of the four conventions on his recent list of places he'd like to go, and assuming Mizuki-san shows, I suspect he'll choose AB. (He was rather excited on Steam and IRC, at least!) Unfortunately, this isn't going to work out this year, due to questionable interview practices by the US consulate in Brazil. We hope to have Leo next year, though!
Thank you for reading! The braying and neighing of AnimeBarnyard animals follows.

Hey there youse gaiz!
I'll keep updated totals of the current collection here. Please send moneys to g4nd41ph@gmail.com to pledge. If you want me to post your name, then please put it in the payment note. Otherwise, I'll put you down as an anonymous donor. PLEASE REMEMBER TO MARK THE PAYMENT AS A GIFT, FIRST BECAUSE IT IS, AND SECOND BECAUSE PAYPAL DOESN'T CHARGE FEES FOR GIFT TRANSACTIONS. ALSO, PAY WITH A BANK ACCOUNT INSTEAD OF A CREDIT CARD IF YOU CAN, BECAUSE THAT AVOIDS CREDIT CARD FEES.
So yeah, help us help you. Sending Mizuki Hitoshi to the US is not cheap, but with a community effort, it can be done with a minimum impact to our wallets and offer maximum impact directly to the fun and the awesome.
CURRENT TOTAL: $5000
REMAINING TO GOAL: -$2500

As the first donor, I'll put down Kilgamayan, who's covering the cost of the hotel at $600.
I got $50 from Zakenna this morning, 1/23. Thank You!
I got $25 from labeth this morning, 1/23. Thank You!
I got $250 from Reddyne this evening, 1/23. Thank You!
I got $250 from -K- this evening, 1/23. Thank You!
I got $50 from Sophilia this evening, 1/26. Thank You!

I got another $25 from Murein this evening, 2/19. Thank You!
I just got $2500 from Nat Tea/Choja. We are currently discussing what we are going to do with this extra money. Stay posted here for more information.
Notice how the ENTIRE BAR IS GREEN?! AWWWW YEAH CHECK THAT OUT! HITOSHI IS ON HIS WAY! WE ARE $%#* AWESOME!
-
You should sticky and/or put this in the site news.
-
Should I? I hesitated making this more important than any of the previous con threads because it's basically only applicable to those attending, even with the extra stuff involved. I've actually already gotten a pledge (to be fulfilled later) from someone that, as far as I know, isn't even going, which makes me feel kinda bad. :C
I guess I'll do it if a staff member that isn't going to AB approves it, but I don't think I'm in a proper position to make that kind of judgment.
-
I was wondering when the donation drive for Mizuki Hitoshi was going to come up.
-
Does the $2500 cover the massive amounts of meat he's going to (want to) be eating? :V
-
I think they calculated the eagle's deli challenge into that figure :D
-
...
Have I ever mentioned how much I hate you guys?
Because I'm damn right jealous right now of anyone who is going because:
A) I'm in England! ><
B) I LOVE Hitoshi & Hang in there Kogasa-san!
C) I LOVE Ask Udonge!
I'll donate for you guys at the very least. Just know that I'm going to be all paru-paru for, like, EVER!!!
The UK never gets the good stuff. >>
-
Hell, it's about time. Now I know where to throw my money!
Also, don't worry, we'll be sure to have our resident tactical video recording operator record plenty of footage.
(AB staff needs to hurry up and get back to Maullar & Co. about panel applications)
-
And this is why you should have always ask MotK's true 1% when this stuff happens. Anyway I hearts Hitoshi so sure why not. I could probably pump out 1.8k if I get my sister to Paypal it over, but may I ask when the deadline is? I have other important things that my money has to go to, too.
And that 1.8k will come out from my anime con allowance that I have been saving for november. ;_;
-
Lol. Why don't we get ZUN to come? xDDDDD
-
Will be putting in a good amount later today most likely. I'll see if I can't tack on a bit of back-up cash in the next couple of weeks if we don't quite make it.
-
Also, don't worry, we'll be sure to have our resident tactical video recording operator record plenty of footage.
Man I'd hate to be that guy, he's going to have to record like the entire time he's at the con OH WAIT CRAP HE MEANT ME FUUU I NEED TO GET MORE BATTERIES STAT.
-

Wow. Well. Um.
To be honest, I'd kinda rather you spend that much money on yourself so you can get here and enjoy the convention with everyone else.
But if you really can't come, then we certainly won't turn the offer down.
-

Enjoy the con without me. I would be deathly excited if I could go, but, parents. Anyway, don't get your hopes that high up. Best case scenario is I pay at least 1k, but at worse im going to have to ship Dormio 100$ to pay pal over.
Empathsizing this because I have made many people excited but then my plans crash and burn and they rage even though I tried.
-
(AB staff needs to hurry up and get back to Maullar & Co. about panel applications)
for the Touhou panel? or Slam Jam panel?
-
for the Touhou panel? or Slam Jam panel?
Well I don't think he's running the Touhou panel, so... :V
-
Well I don't think he's running the Touhou panel, so... :V
AWWWWW YEAAAA
-
Does the $2500 cover the massive amounts of meat he's going to (want to) be eating? :V
Most likely: Nope.
Also, I assume Hitoshi isn't coming alone. Because there is noway his Sanaewife is going to let him go alive.
Finally, shouldn't this thread be in the News Section?
-
If we can raise enough money for both, then yes.
Also, LIKE I WAS SAYING YOU NEED TO PROMOTE THIS, KILGA.
-
Oh, very well.
EDIT: Done. I'm still not a huge fan of requesting donations of people that won't be attending, but I guess if non-AB peeps want to help us out then I'm in no position to refuse.
-
Well you'll never know. Perhaps some people will change their minds and attend because such things probably happen once in a life time (unless you decide to visit Ket/Reitaisai yourself sometime). Either way it is always news-worthy to see such things being planned and executed. Even if the idea would be scrapped, it still remains nice.
-
Sanaewife is going? Why do I live in California? ;_;
Might donate 50 if you still need it later.
-
As far as I know, there are currently no plans to bring Sanaewife over. Only Hitoshi has been invited so far and we are budgeting under the assumption of bringing one person.
If we happen to raise the necessary funding, then we will probably invite her over as well. Either her or Marisafriend.
-
or Marisafriend.
This can't end well.
-
AnimeBoston? I would go, but I can't. Parents. Anyway, if you want a Japanese Touhou guest, have you tried to contact Japanese Americans? [ Given the fact that is is in Boston? ] Anyway, this post will get me probated again if people say this is pure nonsense.
-
I will probably be going to AB, but I am unfortunately very low on money being in college and coming from an otherwise lower-middle class home. If I had the money to donate I would :c

Um...that would defeat the purpose given they're looking for a specific Japanese guest with relevance to the Touhou community. I'm...not sure I even understand why you think this would be an option.

Then I guess I messed up really bad at my previous post. Oh well, good luck finding one.
-

Er, they found one ^-^;...they already spoke with him and he's good with coming over. This is only the fundraising aspect. Umu...this is all stated in this very thread ^-^;
-
If Mizuki is coming to Boston, they can expect at least a foot of rain around early April.
I hope a translator is included in the cost; don't want him getting lost like the last time he came to the US.
-
Might want to spare him from the oni taxi drivers as well :3
Joking aside this is really cool, I have an ocean between me and this con so my chances of showing up are nil but I wish you every bit of luck in this endeavor.
-
Feel the need to point out now, that unfortuantely if you check leomodesto's tumblr he says he won't be able to attend. :(
-
We're working on that.
-
Update on AB shenangans!
- It does indeed appear that Leo will be unable to attend, due to *ahem* questionable interview methods employed by the US consulate during the visa application process. My sympathies go out to Leo, as well as everyone that was looking forward to meeting him.
- In brighter news, the Hitoshi Mizuki train keeps rolling along. His plane ticket has been officially purchased! All that needs to happen now is for AnimeBoston to actually come.
- The Touhou panel has been approved, because Lou is a bro that has always done good by us. We are tentatively scheduled for Friday, 6:30 PM in Panels 202. The panel will run for its standard AnimeBoston 2 hours, though it's obviously going to be run a bit differently this year, given who will be attending.
I know Katsucon is around the corner for a few of you, but Gandalph still whatever donations he can get! Whatever can be spared, we will be very grateful to have it!
-
Pitty to see some things not working as intended but congratulations on getting Hitoshi rolling. Let us hope he arrives in one piece and not being beaten to pulp by SanaeWife.
-
Okay, money issues have hit me stupidly; so donating stuff to the cause is going to be a little hard...
However, I have my own way around this.
Since I can't actually be there, I'm going to do the one thing I've sort of been getting a reputation for...
I'm going to send a parcel!
If anyone who is going to the con would be willing to give me their address, (obviously PM it) then I'll send a small parcel to you with items inside for the one and only Hitoshi... With possibly an item for SanaeWife too; because I aim to please everyone! XD
So yeah, if anyone would be nice enough to that, I'd be very happy; since it's pretty much the only thing I can do sitting here in England. ><
-
I got $31.41 from UncertainKitten this evening, 2/19. Thank You! But why the weird amount?
It's pi multiplied by 10 and rounded.
-
It's pi multiplied by 10 and rounded.
Uh...close enough, yes! I was going for the 3.141(5) visual effect. Technically a proper rounding would be 31.42.
-
Notice how the ENTIRE BAR IS GREEN?! AWWWW YEAH CHECK THAT OUT! HITOSHI IS ON HIS WAY! WE ARE $%#* AWESOME!
Hitoshi is going to devote entire season of "Hang in there Kogasa-san" for this.
-
I contacted Hitoshi on pixiv today to ask about this rumour and he confirmed that he'll be there.
Among other things, I also suggested to him to consider Sakuracon in Seattle in the future... we do have a solid fanbase.
-
If you can raise the money and have interpreter-capable people on hand, go for it.

Hello,
This email is to let you know that your panel titled:
Slammine Boston: The Charles Barkley Experience
has been denied for Anime Boston 2012 due to being off-topic. Sorry. :(
This issue of where to draw the line on the type of content we allow
into Anime Boston is a grey area. Despite this, we want to stay as
focused on one area of culture as much as we can. Specifically, based
on our mission statement, we?re focusing on Japanese Animation, the
Japanese language, and areas that it has influenced -- so long as they
can be tied back into those core focus areas.
We already have a number of crossover events to allow Anime fans to
enjoy other activities that fall outside of strictly Anime and
Japanese culture. For example our informal dances, video game room,
live gaming track, and blood drive. While these events are not
strictly focused on Japanese animation and culture, we ask them to try
to tie in with the convention whenever possible.
Just for some information for you -- in 2011 we received requests for
roughly 209 hours of panel programming from the Anime Boston
community. Of those 209 hours, only 54 hours were waitlisted or
denied. This shows that we accept the majority of panel requests
(about 80%) that are submitted. Of those that we waitlist or deny,
you?ll find that there is a mix of panels that follow our mission
statement versus those that do not. If we find that more and more
panels are being submitted outside of our mission statement, we may
choose to broaden our definition to some degree.
If you would like to get a better idea as to how our panels are
selected, please refer to the following thread on the Anime Boston
forums: http://forums.animeboston.com/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=13865
If we were to allow panels popular in our sub-culture that fall
outside of Anime and Japanese culture, we feel that our message
wouldn't be as strong, and we wouldn't have as strong and focused a
community. Many of Anime Boston's programming staff, myself included,
also have a love of interests outside of Anime that a lot of us seem
to have in common. However, upon our inception as an organization back
in 2002, the founders of Anime Boston came to consensus that we
wouldn't allow our convention to get diluted and unfocused, and
decided to limit the scope of the content. The current executive
staff of Anime Boston, and many of our rank-and-file staff have
continued to support this position.
Thank you for understanding.

Still waiting to hear back on Artists' Alley. If I get in, I'll be selling--at the least--this (http://maullarmaullar.deviantart.com/art/Incubator-s-Counterattack-268563273) and this (http://maullarmaullar.deviantart.com/art/Girls-Generation-Wars-Gaiden-276783541?q=gallery%3Amaullarmaullar%2F308324&qo=4) and this (http://maullarmaullar.deviantart.com/art/Ultimate-Madoka-266839658?q=gallery%3Amaullarmaullar%2F308324&qo=10) (nsfw-ish.)

there is only one option
CHAOS DUNK

I'll fly in on a plane, but jump out over the convention center, b-ball in the palm of my hand.

Well, as fun as it sounds, I'm not surprised that a panel about Space Jam and Charles Barkley got rejected.
-
Get dunked.
(Alternatively, get hype.)
-
Allright, Mizuki Hitoshi says that he'll be bringing a few doujins along with him to buy and get autographed and stuff, but not too many. He also regrets having to leave Sanaewife at home and hopes there's enough money that she can come next time too.
-
Believe me, we regret leaving her at home too. But it would've required an extra $1700 (minimum) that we just weren't getting.
Hopefully we will have that much available next year.
-
Wow, the Touhou panel is going to have Hitoshi Mizuki? Sounds like a must-visit to me!
Despite how much I want to go, I still have some planning to do since I have a job now so I need to do that that so I don't get fired (that'd be terrible!!). My mother already agreed to let me go as long as I think of the job first before the convention, so if the job says no, I'm out.
Anyways, you guys seem like you have the panel handled fairly well. Have fun!
I'm going to yell at all of you not to screw it up.
-
Noooo!! D: I won't be able to go this year! :(
:colonveeplusalpha:
-
Well terrible news, my University sponsored trip has been canceled so I guess I can't go.
Ah well, I never got a chance to make a Medicine cosplay anyway.
-
This is awesome!!!!
I have always been a fan of Hitoshi Mizuki comic
I will definitely leave my AA space for seeing the Touhou panel!!!
a question though,
what are you gonna do with the money? cuz 2500 is a lot lol
-
That's been discussed loosely. We have two ideas and wish to discuss them with the donor before we make a decision.
-
what are you gonna do with the money? cuz 2500 is a lot lol
Purchase meat. Lots of meat for Hitoshi.
AFAIK, that is the money for the hotel and his plane ticket you know. It will vaporize within seconds.
Edit: Ninja'd by Kilgapai.
-
Believe me, we regret leaving her at home too. But it would've required an extra $1700 (minimum) that we just weren't getting.
Uh... you guys said that the amount total in donations on the other page as $5000, right? So you could use some of those extra donations to bring Sanaewife with. (y'know, if those two options you are discussing with Choja with don't work out.)
-
Maybe it's just as well that Sanae will stay behind. She'd be flat-out impossible to drag out of the New England Aquarium once she finds out about the penguins...^^;
-
Perhaps the same could be said about all people.
-
Sanae has been asked and, due to various understandable circumstances, she has declined. We hope to invite her over at a future time, but AB 2012 is not happening for her.

well too bad kilgamayan you're still keeping the donation
trusting friends over a bank to hold money that's pretty high on the scale of stupid right there choja
what idiot takes back donations that's like saying "oh no i did something with good intentions i better take that back!!"[
in other news, ++ good news now i just have to plan my plane trip and i should be fairly ready to go by then!

Okay, I was able to actually find a way to get to Boston and find a place to stay, so I will actually be coming next week! Unfortunately, I couldn't get a Medicine Cosplay ready in time, and if I'm going to be doing my Jin Kisaragi Cosplay I'll need to get my hair cut/re-dyed this weekend. If I can't get that done, I'll probably be wearing my rabbit-eared fleece hat from ComicCon and ahdunnuh, I'll just be looking for you all and probably awkwardly asking every Touhou cosplayer if they're on this site. :V
-
Well, it's almost time now.
I really do hope you guys have a lot of fun! And enjoy the company of Hitoshi for as long as you can~ XD
Again, thanks to Gandalph for allowing me to send a package over; it certainly made my day when you told me you received it. Now to wait for the reaction of Kogasa-san; hehe~
Tick. Tock.
-
Upon package arrival, we were able to partially translate its contents. A full translation is pending and will likely be completed at the convention.

Fun times. Sad that I can't be there to see it.
Kilga, we need pictures!
On another note, how are you talking to Hitoshi? Through a translator?
-
Yeah, Sola's with him.
-
Oh, and because it really couldn't have happened any other way, the first thing Hitoshi and the group present at the airport for meeting him (which I was going to be a part of but WORK) did was go to the New England Aquarium to see the penguins.
Now that's a proper introduction to the area! :V

The Perfect Art Class was great - watched it via livestream though I would've liked to meet ya all in person for that (tried to via IRC though).
Props to Maullar as always for great illustrations (and lots of QBs), UK for being the willing model and bondage test subject
, as well as to Hitoshi for stopping by and saying hi during the stream!
I think our multiple groups and individual/duo travelers could use better coordination, though. Perhaps for stuff after the Touhou panel I guess ^^;;
EDIT: By chance, did any of you wear a Rumia (or what seems like her) cosplay during pre-registration? Passed by one today after getting my AB badge - should've stopped and asked in retrospect :V

Also, Sect, I can't wait to see what Kogasa-san makes of the situation; seeing as your comment pretty much summed it up. :V

Did it rain when Hitoshi arrived in Boston? This is important to know.
-
Hasn't rained yet. This is almost disappointing, since AnimeBoston requires no outside travel if you stay at the Sheraton.

It would've been most hilarious if you people called room service and the employee delivering the food/drinks walks in and sees UK being tied up like that. I wonder what kind of reactions it would cause.
Either way, it looks like you lot were having fun. Although you shall all be sentenced to hell by Enma-sama

Part 2 wherein (s)he takes the bait. (http://www.pixiv.net/member_illust.php?illust_id=26390862&mode=medium)
Title: I'm surprised!
1: "Well, even if it they're not serious, it might make for an interesting story, so I'll just say "OK"!"
"And if by some slim chance it's real, then yipee!"
2: [But what's this? They are serious.]
PC: "Foreign Forum: Please donate to bring Kogasa to America!"
"Whaaaaaaaat?"
3: Kogasa: "Hey, Sanae... Where's Boston?" *Seems like that's where the event is*
Sanae: "Here!"
4: S: "It's roughly 20 hours from Japan and and a round-trip ticket would be 160,000 yen! (~$2000)"
K: "This is OK?! You really want me THAT badly?!"
-
For some reason, Kogasa expression made me laugh a lot in that comic.
Looks like the event is a blast~ :D
-
Looks like the event is a blast~ :D
Yeah remind me to go to one of these things, one day. Looks like good times all around.
-
Perhaps a bit too srsbssmode to say but, it is quite amazing what the power of a community can do. Now if the rest of this planet was doing more like this for the joy, cheer and wellness. [/srsbssmode]
20 hours, holy hell. How does one survive such a trip.
-
I know I haven't said anything, but I do want to say congratulations to you guys for managing to rake in the money needed to bring Mizuki Hitoshi over to the US to attend Anime Boston.
I'm personally watching this thread to see how everything plays out since I'm personally wonder how Hitoshi himself will see his trip to the US. And how it'll be represented in the comics.
My personal prediction for Hitoshi's AB comics: Key members of the MotK crew will likely be personified at the Taoist crew of 10D. The rally and desire to bring donations to get him here, the aquarium, the bondage, and that's only the beginning. It simply reeks of Taoist conspriacy!
(to be honest, though, it could go in many directions it's too early to tell or even perdict, but will be amusing non the less)

Kilga you've told Hitoshi you like big breasts right? Or else you might end up as one of the flatter members :V
-
Finally caught up with the main group after a morning at PAX and hasty touring of AB. More went all-out in cosplay than I expected! (as for me the only prop I have is a Minecraft pickaxe :V)
Karaoke is next on the agenda it seems. What they have planned to sing is beyond me :V
-
In the artist alley 69d now :D
Where is our touhouist in the gaming room ? ;(
Just in case does the panel starts at 7?
Cuz I can't wait to see our awesome guest OwO
-
Still no rain. Plenty of sun here.
If it somehow comes down to many of us being XD characters and I get a choice, I'd choose Miko. I expect that if (IF) I get anyone, though, it'll be Orange, Yuugi, or Nue.
-
We're those the costumes you were wearing at the time? :V
-
I am feeling regret because I could not make it to Anime Boston this year.
Please send my regards to Hitoshi-san if you can.
By the way, does he speak English well enough?
-
We're those the costumes you were wearing at the time? :V
I've worn Yuugi in his presence, and Orange will be tomorrow. I've also worn Aya and Yamame, but those characters are taken.
Nue may be because I'll be four 2hus in 48 hours.
By the way, does he speak English well enough?
We have a translator.
-
By the way, does he speak English well enough?
I will say his English is better than my Japanese.
:] "Umm, how you say... konnichi wa."
:V "Hello. Nice to meet you."
:] "Yeah, there are Pixiv tags for everything... though my personal favorite? Oppamadoka."
:V (huge laughs)

Just seeing that message on the panel was so awesome; wonder how surprised he was.
Also, seeing him bow down to Suwako was just perfect; manga scenes based on real-life moments becoming reality again. XD
And because I keep hammering my own head... has he received my gift? I mean... I just want to know if he has it yet.
Thanks guys; and by the looks of it, you're really enjoying yourselves. Hitoshi looks happy; so that's what counts! ^^
-
Hitoshii sensei is a great guy
I love him when he talks~
I gave my sketch to him and I was too nervous to say thing correctly
so I somehow just walk away out of embarrassment XD
but anyway I explain what happen in his pixiv and added him as my friend
I am looking forward to his next comic :3
I bet it's gonna be so much fun watch all of us turning into the green dudes lol

So you were the one with the huge-titted Sanae picture, huh? That was some good work. So jealous over here.
Tamashii Kanjou, what was your gift again?
-
Glad to hear that this is working out. Is Sola doing all the translating?
-

Yes, we're completely useless without him.
-
Tamashii Kanjou, what was your gift again?
In the white package was...
A small blue plush.
A big penguin plush.
A red slip with something inside.
A card.
I think that should do. Ring any bells? ^^
-
Yes, we're completely useless without him.
That's gotta be rough for an entire weekend. Y'all better be super nice to Sola (aka buy him things [like meals if he refuses presents])
-
Is that Maullar tying someone up?
Since I didn't answer this earlier, that's actually Angelica from #conmeido in the video :V

You just scored +rep at SanaeWife, you cheeky boy.

Sounds like this is a great success! Good work, everyone. Also, it's really cool to see the events leading up to this in the comic itself.
-
Tamashii Kanjou: Gift-giving is going to be a Sunday thing, near as I can tell.
Vic: He's been a fucking champ this whole weekend, including soloing the interpretation for the panel. I want to cover his dinner at Eagle's Deli, if nothing else.
Helecopter: He'll be heading home with two penguin plushies, since the Thursday crew picked one up for him at the aquarium.
-
Oh dang, the panel was yesterday? Good thing I didn't buy that ticket for a 1-day stay!

I expect an interview before he leaves Kilgapaiman. Ask Hitoshi some interesting stuff. Make us BunBunMaru proud.
-
One of y'all better actually finish a Reily Burger for me ;_;
-
There was a Mizuki-san-speific Q&A session at the panel. We have permission to upload it to YouTube, so those that wanted to hear questions answered, there's that.
-
Yessssss fabulous news can't wait to see it!
Sounds like you guys are having a total blast and I hope Hitoshi is enjoying his time in Bawwwston :toot: What else do you have planned for the rest of the weekend?
-
I'm happy cuz everyone's having fun and this plan worked out well, but I'm sad that I can't be there to enjoy it with you guys. Have lots of alcohol for me!
-
I just finished reading through the entire Kogasa-san series thanks to this thread. I can see why Hitoshi become so popular, and I hope he's having a great time with you all!

Too bad I can't go with u guys for the touhou shoot
I am stuck in the artist alley :(
>>Bad appellant
No need to be jealous
Cuz I will be drawing another one soon and post it up here OwO
>>kailgamayan
Yes!!! My awesome breast question! :3
-
Currently at Eagle's Deli. Genichiro ordered the main challenge and finished the 5 pounds of burger with 2 pounds of cheese and bacon topping before surrendering to the 5 pounds of fries.
Mizuki-san Tweeted a picture of the fries. The reactions were almost instant.
-
Man, I wish I was there!
I love his comics and have been following it for a really long time.
Hope everybody had a great time at the convention.

Also, are there any plans for tomorrow?
-
Was the food free? Because I planned on going but was too afraid since I didn't have money. I wanted to see Kogasa eat and gorge on food!
-
Whoadang is that burger like a foot tall or :o
I can see why he (and most everyone else) passed on that one.

Many times if you eat all the food it winds up free so if you're really desperate..... :V
-
That particular challenge is $59.99. I believe you get $100 for finishing it in an hour. No one's done it yet. No one ever will, most likely.
There is nothing special on tap for tomorrow.
-
That thing is ridiculous. You'd need the right appetite to even finish half of that.
-
Did any of the rest of y'all get any if the challenges?
-
That particular challenge is $59.99. I believe you get $100 for finishing it in an hour. No one's done it yet. No one ever will, most likely.
Are you banned from the challenge if you're a professional eater? :V
-
Vic: I didn't, but I didn't pay attention to anything anyone else ate.
I didn't even finish my meal. I wasn't very hungry.
Suikama: Not at all. I doubt even professional eaters could take it down. Keep in mind that it's twelve fucking pounds of food. Forget the hour limit on the money, good luck downing all of it in one visit at all.
-
The internet tells me someone DID indeed finish it
He's some sort of crazy bodybuilder but hey it works. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=va3Nex4AqS4)
Now if you'll excuse me I think I'll be eating salad for the next two weeks after watching that :barf:
-

The second I get over there, I'm going straight there.
Because you have no idea how much I'm known for devouring meals on end and still going 'I'm not full yet.'
But still, that is bloody huge! XD
-
To Gen's credit, he did finish the burger--once again, that's 5 pounds of beef, 20 pieces of bacon, 20 pieces of cheese.
Freeze-Ex - where are you in the Artists' Alley? I'd like to come and say hi.
e: day 2 photos incoming, after I finish dancing with sexy cosplayers to Space Jam
-
Unrelated to Mizuki-san stuff: Cops are swarming all over the place. There was a riotish thing at the rave, which has since been shut down, and the police are ziptie-cuff-arresting absolutely anyone they can get their hands on.
Our main group is safe in our rooms, but friends of friends are currently unaccounted for. Here's hoping they come back safely.
EDIT: Scratch that, I just realized that E-Mouse is also unaccounted for. He's been missing for a while, before this all started, but it's still quite worrying. (Not that him missing before wasn't generically worrying.)
EDIT 2: Scratch THAT, E-Mouse is accounted for.
EDIT 3: Friends of friends are now accounted for. We're gonna wait a while to see when they can go back to their room.

Suddenly I'm glad I checked out early.

The burger is ewhuge, but those fries are nothing compared to the amount I usually eat at home. :V
-
*Crashing in*
I just had a sunday morning idea; What about introducing Kogasa-chan (if he's still there) to the Touhou things that we made ourselves.
Such as fanart, ZUN remixes, and even Dan (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q-7Xe-nQehA)ma (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iivVoqUO3_0)ku (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DAJaJj362MM)fu (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F6VREiFzZ3c) games.
It'd be nice to hear what the Japanese think of our own Touhou projects. And it can be great comic bait too.
-
If you have any fanworks you'd like to give him, feel free to do so.
-
It kinda sadden me out seeing u guys have fun with Hitoshi sensei QAQ

I was the Suwako again (brunette Suwako last year, but I upgraded my cosplay) and I had so much fun. I have a lot of photos up over here, of the Touhou photoshoots and other things from the convention:

It was awesome when... everything really haha. Love the drawing Hitoshi drew for me on the back of my badge thing. And the burger adventure. And the panel and photoshoots.
I can't wait for next year's.

2013 EDIT: Putting Flickr up.
-
want to enjoy eatting not suffer
also i just dropped mizuki-san off at his gate. thus ends his time with the maidens.
-
Some input later as this is still technically a developing story. However, he immediately recognized a Hokuto no Ken quote that wasn't one of the obvious ones that could be made. It made my day. I have a lot of sleep I need to catch up on though, considering how busy the last 4 days have been.
-
Spent the day at PAX instead today, and alas came too late to buy more Touhou mini-figurines, leaving Hitoshi's autograph, Reimu and Marisa mini-figurines and the poker/Uno deck with the odd Mokou/Reimu print on one card as my only AB souvenirs. :<
Anyways, the cons and associated events were fantastic! Looking forward to doing this again in the future wih you all. ^^
Now the worst part is ahead - catching a 7am flight tomorrow morning :V
-
I have to thank all of you, as you all helped this con be a great first con for me. Good to ~actually~ meet y'all, too.
Sad it is over, though. Post-con depression, ho!
-
I'd also like to thank you guys for the awesome panel this year, even moreso for having Mizuki-san attend.
Glad I was able to get a brand new laptop (without melted keys!!) just in time for the con to set up some PoFV/Soku in the game room for people to play, haha.
Can't wait until next year's panel ;)
-
Sad it is over, though. Post-con depression, ho!

Phew, what a blast this convention was! I felt so sore-thumb showing up with no cosplay Friday and my half-missing Jin cosplay Saturday but the whole thing was amazing. On Friday and Saturday I hung around with Nue and Rinnousuke, and finished Sunday off hanging around the MotK staff. Su-San is just the absolute nicest person to be around, and the rest of the staff was wonderful as well. I walked away with a Reimu plushie, Aya key chain, posters, doujins, and a very nice Reimu Nendoroid, got Hitoshi's autograph (twice actually, do to my clumsiness.), and had the surreal experience of watching Hitoshi play MoF one seat over from playing PoFV myself. The entire weekend was an incredible experience and I wholly suggest that everyone give AB a chance when you can.
Oh and a 5 foot halogen tube fell less than a foot past me, so, aside from that near-death or at least near-serious-injury experience, the convention was absolutely amazing.
-
You're welcome, Purvis. (http://i43.tinypic.com/veot8m.jpg)
Real post will probably come tomorrow. In the meantime, shoutouts to any of J-Ko, Maddy, Thursday, and Meishu that find their way here to read this thread. I miss all of you already. :(
-

That's right, you showed me a pic of the aftermath on your camera.
Did they ever figure out exactly how that happened?
@Kilga: It was nice to see you again this year, even if my new laptop was initially without any games XD
Though I did finally manage to get my brother to see you again after the panel, so that's a plus, lol.
-
OH GOD THIS CON. So, I got to karaoke with Mizuki-san! We sang UN Owen Was JIMANG'S Girlfriend. I even got an autograph on my badge...and the drawing was JIMANG. In a Suwako hat. It was beautiful.
-
I've said it year after year, I will try to make it next year! It's about time I see you guys.
-
yay I'm finally back! I'll get around to uploading my pictures and the video of Hitoshi Mizuki playing Jubeat sometime tonight but will probably upload it tomorrow
-
That's right, you showed me a pic of the aftermath on your camera.
Did they ever figure out exactly how that happened?
No idea. There weren't even any other tubes like it on the ceiling.
Drugs, Yukari, Moriya shrine, templates, etc.
On an unrelated note, man I really want to make a costume like right now for some reason. Or even two, because I really want to make a Medicine, but the Nue et al. are planning a SDM group, so Meiling is also on the table.
-
lolwut. May have been stored up there for some reason and fell off. Still doesn't make any sense :V
Even if you were lucky, that would have still freaked me out.
Last thing I need right now is Yukari trying to drop like stop signs on my head.
Still had fun sparring with Medicine, though ;)
-
On an unrelated note, man I really want to make a costume like right now for some reason. Or even two....
Same here, haha. Possibly a Nitori mixed with a few elements from Engie, so it works in both PAX and AB. :V
Probably will be uploading my pics (mostly from the Saturday photo op and restaurant) on Tuesday.

Zeta- Yeah very gg's. Snow dot bullets and Youmu's EX attacks are the bane of my existence V:

Ugh, was doing so good in one of those matches until a single snow dot bullet took out half my health XD
-
That was a puny match compared to this one.

I dunno, the CROSS-COUNTAH between Ran and Mima was pretty amazing.
Definitely was :D
In the meantime....
Not surprisingly, there was a noticeable absence of any Touhou in PAX. I took a quick attempt to fix that at the Fangamer booth:
(http://i1208.photobucket.com/albums/cc379/apr0396/ab_2012/th_IMG_0381.jpg) (http://s1208.photobucket.com/albums/cc379/apr0396/ab_2012/?action=view¤t=IMG_0381.jpg)
'What about Touhou?' is what it says, roughly. The last character is incorrect (should be 은, not 는), but I didn't notice the mistake until later :derp:.
-
It just occurred to me that I asked *you* about the SAT.
Sorry about that. :derp:
hahaha, I was wondering when that would happen.
I've been asked stranger things without first thinking about why XD
-
Hooo man, that was an awesome weekend; I'd do that again in a heartbeat. Wellp, as requested, I tried to take as much video as I could. Unfortunately, my laptop's display went bonkers between me shutting it down on Wednesday night and trying to boot it up on Thursday (a fact made twice as painful as it was supposed to be the panel laptop, yerghimble). Unfortunately this means that it's taking a little bit longer to pull all my vids off the SDHC cards my camera takes and get them onto external HDD to upload, but I'm beginning the uploads soon. Stay tuned as usual!
-
You're welcome, Purvis. (http://i43.tinypic.com/veot8m.jpg)
Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha!
What a lovely thing to wake up to.
-
That was a puny match compared to this one.

MIMA VS. SHINKI ~ PC98 Generation of Maids
You two are OLD and will never make it to the next touhou games. Get over it! Blablabla*
I take my hat off for ya people having fun and shared all the experience with us. Well played all, well played and well done.
-
We are going to have a Q&A with Hitoshi-san video right? I remember someone saying so. I can't wait until it is done uploaded =D
-
OMG~Thank you so much for bringing Hitoshi sensei to me QwQ
there was too many of u guys
and I am kinda new in this forum
so I couldn't recognize Bad Appellant!! sry QAQ
at least I manage to speak some bad japanese with Hitoshi sensei comparing to the last time in the panel =////=
but with the help of Sora I am all cool now~ (thx Sora I owe u~
I told him that I will also draw a comic somewhat similar to がんばれ小傘さん
can the other people who came into my table remind me who u are in the forum?
just so I can at least say ur name in the next AB :3
Thank you all for the great con and manage to bring an awesome artist in!!
I will definitely be a part of the donation next time!
-
What? Kogasauthor is coming to America? I wanna go to America to meet him! (ノ?Д｀)
-
Had fun watching the thread. Wish I could have been there, but I only could choose one con with the end of my spring semster so close. ^^;
-
What? Kogasauthor is coming to America? I wanna go to America to meet him! (ノ?Д｀)
he's already came and should be on his way back if he hasn't gotten back already
-
I heard this was a pretty cool event.
But really, it was a real good time. An amazing time, as every AB tends to be. Whenever I get around to it, I'll throw some pictures up. Nothing too interesting, but a little bit of redundancy never hurt anyone. A bit of a shame that Hendane's AB stock got eclipsed by the Sakuracon stock, but I suppose my wallet is thankful. In the game room, I only really had the time to sit down at the Touhou tables and play a little bit of PoDD. (the allure of jubeat and IIDX is far too strong for my weak will, please forgive me!) As expected, hanging out in the karaoke room and going out to eat with Mizuki-san was awesome.
A+++++ would buy from again
NOTE: Okay seriously, mobile Photobucket sucks. Can't zoom in on these pics, and the "View Full Website" link just takes you to their main page. aaaargh
-
Oh fine, I'll wax mushy too.
I won't say y'all are my family or anything like that--after all, I would not be comfortable with you guys possessing my baby pictures--but AB is probably the one thing I look most forward to every year. A necessary oasis from the straight-laced world of law school, where everything you want to say is vetted and second-guessed and sanitized in your mind before you even say it. I love my friends in my normal life, don't get me wrong, but around you guys, every part of my life--from the law, to the bondage, to the slamming--can just hang loose.
Miss you guys already. Currently reevaluating the costs and benefits of flying out for some future con.
-
The only thing I could ask for next year would be to have a place to set up my laptop that isn't directly in front of huge speakers being used to set up tourneys XD
That, and making sure I can get this laptop to survive until then. Only time will tell :derp:
-
Had a load of fun Friday and Saturday with people I ran into. It was a blast playing Soku and PoFV in the game room every night until it closed. Also played some Youyou Kengeki Musou again too. The panel was good fun and getting the chance to have Hitoshi there was awesome. Also kind of new to MotK, so I'll try to post more frequently here. Hopefully I will see some of you at Otakon? :ohdear:
-
Since it hasn't really been brought up all that much yet, I'd like to cover something in particular. In the end, we were bringing someone who we didn't know firsthand to the US for some 4 days' worth of fun and excitement with which he wasn't entirely familiar. Still, Mizuki-san proved to be friendly, sociable, polite, patient, understanding, open-minded, amicable, appreciative, generous, good humored, a good sport, and is indeed quite experienced with the about the whole anime/manga/video game scene to boot. We really couldn't ask anything more from a guest. It allowed the entire weekend to go off without a hitch. He's also well-spoken and articulate, which allowed our dogged translator to easily turn over any information. It also allowed anyone with knowledge of the language to pick up on the conversation.
Story time ahead filled with notable events and such will be for later when I have more writing time. Ugh. I miss the people already, too.
Edit: My work inbox contains more than 300 messages. Back to reality!
-
You guys are awesome. I wish we could stay together forever. I hope I get to make a return trip sometime. Here's to hoping we gave Kogasa enough comic material!
On another note, did anyone else catch con plague? I have influenza. I dunno if it came from the con or the airport.
-
I was the vector for most con plague cases. I'M SORRY GUYS :(
-
I started showing Flu symptoms around 1 PM today actually. I hoped it was just food poisoning but sounds like I've got about a week of aches to come D:
-
I'm fine, but then again I bought plenty of Vitamin C and zinc before the con, and made sure to take some every day
The alcohol might have had something to do with it too
-
Was pretty damn tired but that's about it. Didn't help that I slept only 4 1/2 hours overnight to catch my plane, though I added 3 hours to that on-board and upon arrival.
Better eat up on fruit, vegetables, and vitamins to offset this easily.
-
I wonder if I can bribe Benny into snagging the Touhou panel at next year's ACen. I would feel a lot less bad about inviting guests to the con then, with someone from MotK behind the wheel.
It probably wouldn't be very realistic to expect this kind of thing to happen again, but I can dream. ;-;
-
yeah my fever just broke about 30 minutes ago. I was pretty much stuck in bed all day
-
Well, that shoots a 92-proof hole in Maullar's "the alcohol helps" theory.

All seven people that went with me from North Station to Fitchburg are just fine.
Although, I did break out the hand sanitizer on quite a few occasions during the con XD

here's my album http://imgur.com/a/IMXAr#0 of AB 2012. Included bonus pictures at the end of the album of our air port shenanigans while waiting for our flights. I'm still pretty ill from what ever disease was being passed around so I didn't really sort out anything or alter the images to make them better
-
Thanks for the pictures, guys!

Care to zip all these pics up and upload an archive version? :3 I'm sorting my pics out in the meantime, will upload tomorrow.
-
Whew, back home after a train ride that took entirely too long. If I had to choose between catching the sickness or spending almost 24 hours for all my train rides, I'd definitely go with the latter. I don't know what it is that I do, but my immune system seems to just not care about anything.
I really should have taken more photos of us eating or sitting around the karaoke room. Lord knows there was a lot of both of those. (On that note, the karaoke room was a bit of a mess. Occasional equipment failures, excessive setup time, and a strange insistence on using YouTube over slow phone internet for some songs even if the singer had it on their own device)
Now waiting watching warmly for the story arc that will unfold at the hands of Mizuki-san.
UncertainKitten wins the Best Mizuki-san Autograph Award, hands down.
-
Went to work straight after landing in the airport from Anime Boston so I was sort of dead and stuff after work. Got a cold the next day but that's nothing out of the ordinary.
Also remind me never to drink any alcohol ever again, I think I have a tolerance of zero or something. Maybe wine won't hurt as bad but that's not a convention kind of drink.
-

Don't need to know, although it explains your low tolerance :V (Well, somewhat because I know some people simply cannot take alcohol at all).

Surely, it's best to get the germs too inebriated to function properly. You can trust me, I'm a 'medical specialist'.

Ugh, perhaps I should have taken said advice. I've become striken with conplague as well. *goes back to burying self under blankets* Well, at least I can keep an eye on the recording. Looks like the Boston tourism is fully uploaded and we're starting to get into the con, so I may as well throw the link up.

I'm glad things worked out so well! I had to cancel my trip about a week prior due to my mother-in-law going into surgery (she's fine now.) I hope to make it back up next year, though

My symapthies to all who got sick in some capacity. Especially since I shared a bed for three nights with someone that came to the con sick, I didn't eat a whole lot, spent the entire weekend high-fiving strangers on the escalators, and have come into work on less than 6 hours of sleep both days this week and I'm still going strong. <_<;
Zakenna: Choja got shitfaced Thursday night.
-
wait Choja you drank? when? I don't recall drinking with you
I didn't sneak a sip of your rum, I had a shot of the "special signature apple cinnamon brandy" from bad applent!!
damn my face was on fire and i was saying the stupidest things.
Zakenna: Choja got shitfaced Thursday night.
YES. trust me i'm a professional
also i feel bad because we were going to visit the artists' alley and then we didn't. or i didn't, unfortunately.

I have developed something in the way of a post-nasal drip, but there's no accompanying symptoms, which doesn't tell me much based on what the others have had. It really is tough to contain a disease in such an environment and any effort the sicklings went through to contain the con endemic are appreciated since some people seem to have made it through. It might reach a point where it's easier to count the number of people who didn't develop some sort of sickness, though.

Whoah, you missed out, and I'm not one to throw such wording about. There were a number of booths with great and creative bits of artwork in there, including several booths selling Touhou-related stuff. I got a few real nice things, plus I found out later that one of the people in the AA was the artist for the Touhou wallscrolls in the DD. Two of those will be going up on my wall shortly in addition to other things. Go ahead and give it a look the next con you go to.
-
If only I found out that a surprising number of Artist's Alley tables accepted credit cards BEFORE Sunday, I would've probably been all over that.
-
Photo upload time! The vast majority were from Saturday's photoshoot, though. Didn't take many pics outside that.
Also, hooray mobile phone pics (even though I brought my camera along too). Camera+'s Stabiliser shot helped quite a lot at least.

you got shit-faced from the brandy? it probably would have taken the entire bottle that Mauller brought to get me as drunk as the rum I had did.
EP: I forgot you also bought the touhou playing cards, I should take a picture of all my merch I bought once the world stops feeling so cold
-
And still, no one from my party has wound up sick.
Just lucky, I guess :V

I remember us going to the Artists' Alley on Sunday to see them closed (opens at 10, we were there like 8:45 or something?) then after the photoshoot when we had free time i just went to dealers' hall to purchase Tanto Cuore and then sat around in the hotel room
Man, I bet all the Japanese are reading our posts here and thinking "How did Hitoshi survive with all these crazy people!? They're all so weird!!" but that is me being awkward.

I just lost my voice mostly. Mom calls me every day at noon and today I had to ignore it and text her "yeah mom I can't talk can you text this time?" :X
I'll be okay though! Drinking lots of warm tea.
... I miss everyone. :<

Had a fantastic time for my first AB. Always great to hang with everyone, and Hitoshi-san was an amazing guest. Looking forward to next year as well.

Q&A with Mizukisan was well done. And I was wondering where he got the hat from, so his wife made it for him huh. Lucky fellow.
Was fun to watch the Q&A, well done all once more.
Charismatically approved.
-
Which video is the Q&A (or anything really interesting?) Can't watch any of the Blair Witch Projecty styled ones and want to jump right to the big kahuna videos.
-
Ah yes right here the introduction speech of Mizukisan starts (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NRIeuQ504FU&feature=bf_next&list=PL3970F5FB9B084518&lf=plpp_video#t=8m39sl), and after that the Q&A.
Maybe the people there can point out the other most interesting parts because I was seeking for this part in particular.
Edit: Forgot to add in my previous post, had 1 minor complaint about the Q&A, due to the quality of the sound it would've been nice to hear the question being repeated through the microphone, because half of the time it was impossible to hear what was being asked. But oh well.

I drew myself as Charles Barkley, but it might be easier to draw me as Mami, since that's my IRC nick, and also so Hitoshi-san can say America was full of busty blondes

well I expect to draw others as touhou characters :/

Hmm! Let's say Renko then.

Which Chinese Tea arrange is the one playing before the start of the panel?
Also whoever decided to do the "9... is the number of Ran's tails!" thing is a good person.
I think you guys spent a bit too much time explaining the storylines of the official print works. Personally, for a panel with (surprisingly, this year) a bunch of new people, you should have expanded a bit more on the derivative works. Despite me absolutely loving them, you have to admit that explaining them to new people is even more boring than explaining the silly stories in the games themselves.
-
Do you mean the arrange of "Scooter is Awesome" that plays first? That's "One": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ygWV__SMt7M
The Chinese Tea arrange was Scarlet Tea Party from DDBY: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-KcRG1SblwY

Yup. I picked it because it's a solid arrange and suits the mood for "panelists are preparing".
Also whoever decided to do the "9... is the number of Ran's tails!" thing is a good person.
Kilga put that in for the Otakon panel last year. Considering it's memetic implications (and this time my attire), it fits pretty well.

Point taken. We've got things into a nice framework, but not a science yet, and as such parts of the panel are too short or too long and it's difficult to nail down the amount of time that should be spent on several talking points. It's also difficult to balance things considering there are some people that have been involved with Touhou for 5+ years and have come to every panel, and then there are the people who have no clue as to what we're talking about. For now the excuse I have is that hitting every last high note of a series with as much material to it as Touhou in the most precise time frame necessary to properly cover it is not so easy.
Edit: As an addendum, I'd also like to say that I'm still just not used to being in front of an audience despite how many times I've done this. I'm better than I used to be, but I still have a long way to go before I can talk as easily as I can on-on-one, and as such have a hard time conveying what I want to say and doing so in my typical jocund fashion.

She had quite a fierce look when she took her photos.
The Kanako Itou concert and panel was what I originally came for. Mizuki-san's guest appearance was a surprise when I heard about it. The photo shoot was a ball too.
Definitely good game to who I believe was Red(?) and anyone else playing with the PSP controller in the game room Saturday night.

I just used a homebrew app that just mapped it for me automatically. I figure put it to good use. Even the guy who asked for a spare controller to play PoFV wondered how that was possible.

Okay folks, sorry about the lack of updates recently; work has been hectic to say the least and my time at home was mostly spent eating and complain about conplague. Anyway, by now, we have the tour of boston/aquarium, our entry to the hotel, the very beginning of the friday photoshoot (I derped here and skipped a folder of upload, that's going up next), and, as a special treat, video of Mizuki-san drawing the 500th strip! Finally (at least for the moment), the panel is up, and in said panel, a Q&A session with Mizuki Hitoshi! Anyway, enjoy, and more to come!

Mizuki confirmed this in his comment on his pixiv page:
There were four people who came to meet me, but if I depicted them all, then the joke would get diffused and it'd become hard to draw, so I figured I'd condense them down to two for a bit. Sorry (to a certain image board (^^;) ).
So sorry to hear that but I guess Mizuki has his reasons so condense it to 2 people.

Yeesh, you greet the guy at the airport, lead him all around Boston during a VERY full day, give him a hotel room, bid him good morning every morning, share several meals with him, play a round of Hisoutensoku with him, give him a spot in your tails, and bid him farewell by quoting a character that hurls himself from the top of his palace at the center of the city he created to avoid dying at the hands of his rival as his big exit and you're summarily forgotten.
Sounds like an allegory of how relationships in my life have gone. (?・ω・`) (?・ω・`) (?・ω・`)

I suppose I should have considered this possibility sooner, what with a decent number of people getting worked up over the idea of possibly appearing.
Obviously, it would be nice if we all got to show up at least once, but I imagine that's not going to happen. To any given person that never appears, though, just remember that you made out a hell of a lot better than everyone that couldn't even attend the convention.

Truly, the crowd was so large that it'll be a wonder if he remembers everyone, let alone include us in the strip in some fashion. Also, if he takes up 25 characters for one arc, how much is that going to limit him for other people he introduces?

Yeah. Too lazy to look it up in the vids at the moment. It kinda fit. Besides, he got a kick out of it.

"We've a full day before the con! Whatcha wanna do?"
"Breakfast."
This is the droid we're looking for.

Sure, but they're primarily one-shot characters. They can pop up again with a different occupation when necessary. If he decides to use a handful of characters and they pop up several times, their identities will be set and will clash if he wants to reuse them for a fitting situation. I'd rather he avoided backing himself into a corner if it comes down to creativity clashing with other things.
Congratulations on your ret-con, Murein!

Ah well, these things happen. I got the chance to videorecord a comic artist I really like and upload it to my youtube channel; I can't really complain about things overall. Also, this will merely add to the humorous reputation I have of being invisible in pictures.

Since it's been mentioned in danbooru, here's a list of ideas I have for possible invites next year.
Warukagi (SK-II, seems like a cool guy)
Chado (would love it but seems really high profile)
Tani Takishi (that yukkuri guy; seems to know Mizuki a bit)
TEDDY-PLAZA (though he's been to NYC before, so I'm not sure if that's a consideration)
Wi-Z GARAGE (good luck finding contact info)
Haniwa (of Miko Miko Suika fame maybe?)
I'll keep it there. Intentionally didn't add artists turned manga-ka like One Night Stand and Aki Eda. There's always ZUN, but I don't see that happening until at least the 5th invite.

Warukagi - The good news is this: Heleopolis has good connections with Warugaki and he's currently over in Japan hanging out with him on his one month long vacation. He probably has the highest shot of all the people.
Chado - DO WANT BADLY!!! IT would be worth it to find a way to contact him and haul him over here.
TEDDY-PLAZA - Ok so he's been to the states before might be tough to bring him over, but it never hurts to
Wi-Z GARAGE - Best bet is to contant Hele before he goes to Reitaisai, he might find a way to meet him.
Haniwa - Again, another want.
Don't forget the less known but growing in popular Aya Azama of WaHH fame.
But regarding ZUN, he might be a very hard one to pull in. Considering his stances on things (especially with westerners [though that's probably on a business scale]). I know it's worth a shot, like we said, we need to establish some bonds with other well known artist first. It might be the only way ZUN might reconsider.
Also I would nominate Gensoukoumuten as another candidate since he was well known for that more modern Touhou series that involved a postman adventures through Gensokyo delivering mail and being friendly with everyone. Very heart warming stuff.
Anyways, Today's episode: Kogasa and friends checks into the hotel and decide where to go sightseeing.

Forgot the post office guy. If part of the panel was talking about his view of Gensokyo, I'd be for it. If it was just to have him as an accessory like what seemed to happen with Mizuki, it's not in his best interest.
As for Aya Azuma, , she(?) is a mangaka as far as WaHH is concerned. It'd feel like we're taking work time away or something. That's just my two cents though.
-
I suppose it might be worth mentioning that the ideas floating around in at least my head are not just artists.
However I will throw full support behind Chado if I am promised he will come with a new Tohonifun doujin where Yuuka beats Remilia clean.

I would second the idea if it's possibly getting a hold of someone from a music circle or fangame developer. But another artist would do just as well.

Dunkin' Donuts, which was founded some 60 years ago in Quincy MA and now operates in Canton MA, is absolutely huge out in the eastern half of the state, including Boston. Simply touring around my town has unearthed six of them, and searching further has revealed several more. And this is in a single TOWN and not some big city. You can literally start at one, then drive by a street that has one before taking a left at another one just to arrive at a fourth down that street.
-
If any of you come down South and encounter a Shipley's (http://www.shipleydonuts.ws/), I would say it's better than Krispy Kreme and Dunkin' Donuts combined.
It's like biting into a freshly-baked, fluffy, yeast bread, in donut form.

He did eventually get dinner about the same time as I was ready to actually be sociable and do things. The recounting is slightly out of order, as I ended up having dinner with Mizuki-san and Solamarle because we both (myself and Mizuki) needed to get our badges as well, and *after* that I ended up tied up for art. But yeah, he missed the ~*~main~*~ dinner shenanigans.

The combination bathtub/showers I came across in Japan were so absurdly tall that I find it strange that he didn't realize to tuck the curtain behind the wall. Then again, maybe because the wall of the tub is so tall that you can leave the curtain on the outside of the tub and the water still won't splash out.

ahh awesome, you were pretty cool. I pretty much only saw you at the photo shoot though. it's a shame what happened to your mirror, If you plan on bringing back Kanako you should look into mirrored acrylic (http://www.tapplastics.com/product/plastics/cut_to_size_plastic/acrylic_sheets_mirror_clear/521) it's pretty easy to cut out if you have a rotary tool and much lighter than an actual mirror so hot glue will hold it up. Even if you drop it, it won't shatter like a real mirror. For your purposes you can probably just buy their sample size which is 1/8''x 4'' x 4''

A bit of context for this strip:
The person that Hitoshi is talking to in the 4koma was the "really excited Japanese lady" we met at Anime Boston and Hitoshi drew her appearance spot-on. I assume that she was visiting Anime Boston for some event or something because when she happened upon the first Touhou photoshoot, she was so overjoyed to take pictures of the cosplayers.
She also politely entered the Touhou panel room while we were setting up. None of us apparently knew enough Japanese to ask her to wait outside with everyone else, so she stayed around until the panel started.
Also, her enthusiasm scared me.

Not enthusiastic enough for Mizuki Hitoshi, though, apparently ... :B

Same; as I said in the danbo comments, I'm amazed he remembered my collar being open, the fingerless gloves, and the web belt pouches I had on, but he drew it all (even the trigger discipline!) And in the same vein, he drew my hairstyle different than the hotel Tokikos; sans the super long side bangs since I wasn't sure the best way to do those. Dude's got an eye for detail.

From here on out, all I can say is we all had a fun ride watching Mizuki's antics and all the mess that came with it. You all did a spectacular job by bringing him here and I'm certain you will become legends to some for doing this.
I look forward to see how next year plays out.
As mentioned earlier, I'll probably bump this thread once more when Kogasa gives Sanae the penguins (which I'm certain will happen) but otherwise it's time to wrap it up since I can tell now that from here Mizuki's going back to doing stories of Kogasa's typical (but funny) life in Japan.
I'm pretty certain you all will be checking his comics daily since they are very well recognized. And since we made such a wonderful impression I'm certain we will have many laughs as his adventures continue.
