Title: Anime North 2010 - Touhou Panel!
Post by: PN on April 14, 2010, 12:13:24 AM
I tried last year to get a panel going, with no luck, but let's aim to get it done this year!  I've got 3 people on board already, so 1 or 2 more should seal the deal.  If you're interested, sign up at anpanels.com, and posting on the AN board doesn't hurt either.

What do you need?

Not much, just people who can talk Touhou.  As a panelist, you don't need to do much, mainly keep conversation going.  I like panels to be free-flowing, so I don't really plan a strict agenda (usually a rough one that covers the topics I want to touch on).

For this panel, what I'm leaning towards as topics are: the games, the Gensokyo world (and characters), influence of Touhou, doujin work (spinoff games, manga, music). 

You do need to sign up at anpanels.com, and it does help (I think) to post on the AN board.

Having an audience would be great too (since I think one of the criteria that a panel is judged on for inclusion in subsequent cons is audience size).

Hmm... I think I can do that. I just hope I'll manage myself appropriately for the situation. And be remotely well-rested.

I guess I should look into that then :<

I guess we need to set up some sort of slide-show with all this and all though.

I guess I'll look it up myself as well.

If we want to do a slideshow or any other type of AV stuff (videos or music), let me know sooner rather than later.  Not all the panel rooms have AV equipment, so we'd have to let the organizers know ahead of time.

Tbh I'd rather do a slideshow to show some samples of what Touhou is, the games (especially gameplay videos), videos and popular memes that spawned from it, a lot of things to explain. I, myself, am a visual learner and all that, so these things would help me understand than just mere words.

Oh and am i required to dress up as a Touhou for this? cause i already made other costumes and it's a bit too late to change now.

I'm not gonna cosplay at all. At most I'm gonna bring that shitty Flan shirt I made in Media Arts last year to AN again.

Yeah, c(r)os(s)play is not mandatory. Might be a detriment in some instances.

I'll probably bring Chen, though I'm not sure I'll wear it.

... though, it sounds like plans aren't 100% certain of whether a few of my friends are interested in going, so I'll have to see about whether I'm going, first...

Crossplay is only a detriment if you take yourself seriously. 3/4ths of the AB panel crew was crossplaying but we had spent the entire weekend not taking ourselves seriously so no one really cared.

Still no idea whether Touhou will happen or not, but was told by Fingers (who organizes all the panels), that any A/V equipment will only be provided on a needed basis.

That said, if we want any type of A/V stuff, please forward me what you had in mind, and I can see how receptive he is to what is suggested.

Unfortunately, we're gonna have to share rooms w/ the fighting game guys again. Last year was really unfortunate because we were sandwiched between two crowds and setups (from the fighting games).
Hopefully, I can ask for my section to be placed in one of the (isolated?) corners of the room, then we can blast the volume up to whatever loudness we damn please.

EDIT: Created the thread over at the official AN board here: http://teahouseofthemaplemoon.yuku.com/topic/2887/master/1/

So the Touhou panel has been tentatively scheduled for Friday at 5.  So let's kick things off with a bang, as we'll be first up.  No A/V stuff, so we'll probably address that with Khoa's shmup station, but hopefully we get a great turnout.

No pop'n this year though. Last year, Leo brought his and it got quite a lot of traffic. If I can get my ASC fixed on time, maybe I will bring mine during Free Play or something.

The panel is confirmed to go and is scheduled for 5PM, Friday the 28th, in the Ottawa (Jrock Panels) in the Double Tree hotel.
I noticed that the room is roughly right beside the Plaza Ballroom where the opening ceremony will be, so its easy to get to.
I'll be there this year, cosplaying Iku Nagae. Hope to see some of you there!

You can get your pass before the convention even opens its events.
The line up for passes starts at 1PM, and the events don't start until 4PM, mostly.
And then the panel, which is at 5PM, a good ways away.

#2 Says you don't need to 'register' in particular for it. But you do need a valid AN membership pass.
So I guess you do... but, hey, who'd be monitoring? The only thing I saw them carefully monitoring last year was the Dealer's Room, where you needed to show your pass when you entered and left.

As it is an AN event, yes, you're supposed to get your pass first.  That said, I doubt any of the panelists are so anal to check to see if people have them or not (we're generally more worried about saying something incredibly stupid in front of a live audience).

That said, higher ups may be by to see how the panel is going and how the attendance is (usually used as a gauge for whether to have the panel again in the future) and if they happen to notice people without passes, they'll likely be less forgiving about it, but I don't expect them to be actively checking for passes either.

As Chibity mentioned, you can show up early to pick up your pass, or if you have pre-registered, you can go on Thursday evening to get it ahead of time.

The main panelists for Touhou consists of PN, Gpop, me and a friend.
However, I'm hardcore into the games themselves so don't expect me to add much discussion into the memes and stuff. If anything, I'll probably add the least to the discussion.  :blush:

Also, since I'm one of the core staffs for AN's gaming section, expect me to go in and out if I get called by one of the higher-ups of AN. That being said, I hope this panel's first debut becomes a blast and I expect the room to be completely bombarded.

We've got a fifth panelist.  Not sure if they post here, but they go by TheeShenanigans on the AN board.

SFKhoa, you'd better add more concerning the actual games! All I ever hear about is Touhou panels failing because they didn't add enough regarding the games themselves. And sheepishly inserting memes at awkward moments.

EDIT: Oh wow, 5PM is empty. Good stuff.

If you want to talk gameplay, come out and talk gameplay.  The panel is for the audience, and if that's what the audience wants to talk about, that's what we'll talk about.  The last thing I want is for the 5 panelist to talk for 60 freakin' minutes, with everyone in the audience sitting on their hands; although if we have to, we will.

Khoa is our resident shmup expert, so yes, he'll have to talk gameplay.  That's why I recruited him in the first place.   :D

If there are empty slots in most of the gaming schedule, us staff tend to just shove in arbitrary games in there just to 'look professional'.
If you really want your Bemani that much, I suppose I can bring in my FP7 and KOC to one of the Free Play slots (or the Overnight Gaming slots).

Of course not, but if all goes well this year with the panel and we get enough people interested and enough people to attend the panel then we'll most likely have it next year as well.

Hopefully longer time slot too.

Will do. This is my first try at being a panelist ever so I'm pretty nervous about it in general.

Don't worry. We're first-time buddies!

That was a nice panel today!
You don't know how glad I was when there was nobody who said they entered touhou from badapple haha :D
Hope to see some of you guys around at the other sections too!
Other than that, is there anything else that you guys are up to? -Since I'm already planning to go crazy again like I did today for the Japanese voice actor!

P.S. What happened to of the merchandise? I'm a bit curious since I didn't get to stay for that one.

Post by: Gpop on May 29, 2010, 03:18:00 AM
So yeah, we had the panel, and it went A LOT better than expected, and there was A LOT more people than we definitely expected. We need a bigger room next time.

We went through quite a bit, discussion never really stopped, but we had to cut some short to move onto different subjects without forgetting about them completely.

Anyways, I also took picture of quite a few Touhou crosplayers out there, so I'll upload them probably tomorrow when my friend sends me his.

I was mostly with Chibity and her gang, and did talk to Suikama a little. Also talked to Astral and Khoa for a bit, as we crossed paths three times. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THAT SATORI/KOISHI doujin (even though the doujin was mostly Satori >_>)

You were there? I didn't know which one was you ;_;

Astral was selling his Touhou stuff over at the room across from the Touhou panel, but since not many people came, it wasn't an auction as he wanted. Still, I got Perfect Momento, a Happy Flame Time doujin, a KFC Satori doujin, and an NSFW ReverseNoise doujin on Daiyousei >_>

I'll be there tomorrow at the shmup, same guy wearing a white t-shirt with a Flan symbol.

PS: I also got a free pin from Chibs...I'm ashamed to say who's on it ;_;

Hey, I just found this thread. Good job with the panel! As you can see, I haven't spent much time on these forums, but I'll probably end up spending more time here this summer. If anyone remembers, I was the guy in the K-ON shirt :3

Anyway, I will most likely be at the shmup room tonight. I never spent much time in the game rooms in the past years, so I'm looking forward to it!

Oh yeah, Khoa, here's the link to the Touhou stepmania theme I use:

And the packs I made are these two:

http://zenius-i-vanisher.com/v5.2/viewsimfilecategory.php?categoryid=416

It's for your DDR panel or whatever.

Right, while I'm talking about it, I found some of my old FFR buds (who now go on KeybeatOnline) Kommisar, Gundam-Dude, WTFBrandon, and Smexy. We had great fun at the DDR panel since they had OpenITG. I managed to get my files there, so that's when they recognized me :V

I'm much more popular than I expected >_>

DANCE! And tails (Chibs is on the right btw)

(http://i516.photobucket.com/albums/u323/Gpop92/0528001900.jpg)
CAPTAIN MOTHERFUCKING MURASA! And Kogasa woo!

(http://i516.photobucket.com/albums/u323/Gpop92/0528001901.jpg)
Let's add Iku and Ran shall we?

(http://i516.photobucket.com/albums/u323/Gpop92/0528001905.jpg)
Badass EX boss

(http://i516.photobucket.com/albums/u323/Gpop92/0528001934.jpg)
Even though I hate her, I do like cosplayers of her :P

(http://i516.photobucket.com/albums/u323/Gpop92/0528002006.jpg)
He did have this girl with him also dressed as Flan. My friend took a pic of them both, and I'm waiting for him to send them to me.

Anyways, I got some Touhou doujin and merch (mostly from Astral at a good price, thanks man!), here's what I salvaged:
(http://i516.photobucket.com/albums/u323/Gpop92/0529001237a.jpg)

(http://i516.photobucket.com/albums/u323/Gpop92/0529001236.jpg)
(Yes, that's a ReverseNoise H-doujin, thanks so much Astral <3)

What's this? I wonder what's that pin I got...
(http://i516.photobucket.com/albums/u323/Gpop92/0529001237.jpg)
FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF-

I am ashamed, but I got it from Chibity for free. There wasn't any Chireiden pins unfortunately.

THere was also a Reimu plushie, but it was $65. Fucking overpriced!

The games were $35 as well, a little too much for me, but I would've got it if I had more money (I only had $20 left at the time I found it ;_;).

Anyways, I'm gonna go back tonight for the shmup section. Hope to see most of you there!

So, although I was only able to stay at the Shmup panel for an hour or so, I must say I was pleased to meet others like Gpop.
I guess I'll be posting pictures of stuff that I got and cospalyers after tomorrow.
I hope to go back to my regular streak of translating by after Wednesday. (I was a bit busy since I was going as staff this year)
So, thank you everybody and hope to see you guys again some day! :D

Well AN is pretty much done. Let's see what else I've got.

First let's see which Touhou cosplayers I spotted:
(http://i516.photobucket.com/albums/u323/Gpop92/0529002340.jpg)

(http://i516.photobucket.com/albums/u323/Gpop92/0530001329.jpg)
(Now this one was awesome, and that Meiling was pretty ho *shot*)

And here's what I got:
(http://i516.photobucket.com/albums/u323/Gpop92/0530001620.jpg)
(The one in the left looks really interesting. Might scan if it wasn't already. The one in the right was $5, which is because it was short and...not that great. Well I got it anyways because Koishi~)

(http://i516.photobucket.com/albums/u323/Gpop92/0530000046.jpg)
(Might give to friend. Might not :V)

Also, Astral had this but wanted to get rid of it.

All cosplay pictures I've taken are here @ http://www.dwrkoa.net/AN2010/ . Thx to those that wanted to hold on to my Cirno doll for the pictures!
Sorry for some of the blurry pictures. Cell phone cameras certainly are the devil.

Wow, I look so bad in that photo.

OMG WRIGGLE YOU ARE WIN. FRIENDS NAO.  :V I was that litto girl with the weird dress and black/brown hair talking to Ran and Iku while we were playing Touhou on Saturday~ and I said I loved your costume WHICH I DO XD

Thanks! I didn't think my costume was that good. I Sent you an e-mail so you can get me on Youtube or MSN.  :]

I'm the one in the white shirt with the Flandre symbol. Khoa was the one beside me, and PN was the one in blue. Chibity was the Iku cosplayer. You get to see Sabino and Suikama talk a bit as well.

I was that asian guy with the blue yukkuri shirt and button armoured hat in case you happened to see me in the ddr room or with Kommisar.

Overall, entertaining panel and amazing weekend. I'm content with all the Touhou merchandise I managed to buy (posters, wall scrolls, plushies, music, and buttons). Too bad I didn't have a camera on me to take pictures of the Touhou cosplays but more or less everyone else here that took photos more or less got everyone I saw, rofl.

yeah con in general fucking owned. def. going next year. maybe i can convince synexi to go as rin hehu


the touhou pannel itself was aite. I found it was more about who had the biggest knowledge of reimu's penis size rather than a panel but thats aite. needs more gaming room exposure also.

Suggestions are always welcome. For most of us panelists, it's our first time, so anything you think we gotta improve (other than the obvious 'having a microphone, speakers, and a projector screen' suggestion), just tell us. I think the panel went off pretty damn well and we can definitely make it so much better for next year hurhurhurhurhr.

So yeah, a little late to the post-con party, but I finally made it.

First and foremost, thanks to everyone who came out and enjoyed the panel.  The panel was for you guys, and you guys made it awesome.  I have to say, you made this probably the easiest panel for me to do all weekend (out of five).

Shout outs to the other 4 panelists with me:  Khoa, Mike, Gpop and TheeShenanigans.  You guys were great, and kept things alive.  I know  you were all nervous being all first timers, but you pulled it off with flying colours.  I have to apologize for not being able to use a lot of your ideas (mainly the AV stuff), but hopefully the next time the panel runs, we'll have all the bells and whistles.

Gotta give a shout out to anyone who decided to hype up the panel beforehand.  Specifically, I did notice Chibity getting the word out (hurray for Youtube...sometimes), so big thanks to her for making my job easier.

I got to say, the panel was one of the highlights of my con going history (and it's been a while).  It was probably one of my personal highlights of this con, followed by finishing 2nd in the TvC tournament and 1CCing LLS twice (using Reimu A and B).  That's not to say that meeting a great bunch of people was not memorable (although I'm terrible with names, so apologies if I don't remember you).

I don't know if I'm going to be going back again next year, but if I am, I'll be sure to try and bring the Touhou panel back.  Keep your eyes open around January or February if you want to get involved.  Feel free to PM me if you want to stay in touch; it's always fun meeting more Touhou fans.

I doubt we're getting a sound system for the panel next year.  Despite over-filling Ottawa, I doubt that the attendance we had for the Touhou panel would have put a seat in every chair in, say, the Toronto B room, which does not have a mic.

Did I give you a weird look or something  :ohdear:. I was wondering where you got that plushie and those Touhou pins but I managed to find a bunch later on when I went to the Dealer's Room after the Touhou panel and over the course of the weekend. I actually remember you from last year when you brought your IIDX and Pop'n Music stuff for the Rhythm Gaming event on Friday night except no one was really there. I was with Dan/Xiao and I think we did talk to you at one point but I don't quite recall. And Dan did mention to me a few weeks back before AN that you were selling your IIDX controller or something since you stopped playing, haha.

Definitely planning on going next year and really considering toohoo cosplaying if I'm brave enough

Also in general it wasn't cold but when I sat in the middle of the room which is right under the AC I was shivering so much.

pat if you do touhou next year i'll definitely match that.

Nice to know we're on good terms at least. I'll try to be more open in person next time. Most of the Touhou stuff (ex. the cirno plushie) were from a friend of mine that wanted to sell off his doujins when the panel finished.

Also, I wasn't selling my IIDX controller cuz I stopped playing. I just want to sell it cuz it happens to be a spare (I have 3 arcade-style controllers, actually). It's still for sale though. Aside from that, I really want to re-open Bemani for the gaming section, but judging from the past two years a friend and I have put it up in AN,  there doesn't seem to be all that much interest to warrant bringing them back.

I could be wrong though, and sorry if my post seems out of whack. :3

Did we have IIDX at AN before? I never saw it, but I never really looked. Honestly, I wouldn't mind dropping by for some freeplay, even if it's non-IIDX Bemani stuff. I'd play any rhythm game that doesn't involve feet :P

Yeah, IIDX and Pop'n weren't very popular last year since that room was completely dead aside from a few people that stopped by to watch what was going on. I only remember Khoa, his friend, and Xiao going up to play the entire time while I only sat by and watched, rofl. The year before, I remember IIDX being in a lone corner in the DDR room when I was working at AN that year :(

I'd probably be interested in trying it out, if not watching it again. My friend bought Beatmania from the Dealer's Room so I could probably drop by his house and start playing in PRePaRaTioN for next year if it does happen, lol.
