Drallcome said : Having Hentai night every night was great this time!

Response : We are glade u liked it. We have fun bring it to you fans.

Darkstar said : I know you guys like to have a lot of different media formats, but you have to make sure that you have the machinery to work with it -- even if you get a bit submarined. Happened to the room I wanted to watch Friday morning and again for Midnight Madness.

Response : yes I know. We are so sorry about that. We will fix this problem so that next year you and everyone else won’t miss the anime they had there harts set on seeing. That is a promise!

Kazuko said : and it was a good idea to put that border for ID checking for the yaoi and hentai rooms :3

Response : yeah we do this so u can see whats playing in the rooms with the doors open and chose if u want to see it or not.

Uzutake said : For the yaoi marathons and such...Gakuen Heaven and Gravitation arent rated R or anything...they're Shonen Ai, not Yaoi. Maybe have a Yaoi marathon for people 18+ then have a Shonen-ai one for people ages...13+? Ionno, but I'm pretty young and LOVE LOVE LOVE yaoi.

Response : yes we know some titles are not 18+ but since some are we feel it needs to remain 18+. Also we are not in charge of hot yaoi nights. We leave this to experts so if u ever want to thank the people who do this pls thanks yaoi con. they do a great job every year!

EternalMalachi said : there was a mistake on Saturday night that said "Geneon Presents Akira 2." Got all excited for nothing.
Video Programming:
Not too thrilled this year. There were a couple Asian Live Action shows I enjoyed, but no much in the way of animé. I'm guessing something happened where fansub animé is no longer allowed to be played? Two years ago I was running from room to room all day to catch new animé I wanted to check out. Was much more laid back w/ only a couple shows I had to catch. This year, however, there were only 2 shows I wanted to see: one was the Shadow Chronicles preview that I missed because I was feeling ill, and the second was a typo on the schedule. -,-` All the rest of the animé that played was basically stuff I can just borrow from friends. *shrugs*

Response : hehe yeah that was my fault on the akira 2. what happen it was written in my notes akira 2hrs40mins. So when I cut it out I took akira and accidentally added the 2. so I’m sorry about that.  Now as for fansubs u are just not looking for them cause if u ever gone to our website would have seen our awesome list of fansubs. http://www.fanime.com/video/view.php?cat=4 here is the link. We here at fanimecon pride our selves on the amount of fansubs we show. We have not forgotten were we come from. Also remember this we have the most video rooms then any other anime con.
U know it really hurts me when people say we don’t show fansubs or we sold out. we are a con that live for the fans and stand tall on our saying “by fans for fans”!

YoureMyHiro said : 3. A wide variety of screening rooms. It was great to ALWAYS have something to resort to if the dance ended or the Gaming crowd had died down and you just wanted to get in some good viewing.

Response: thank u! its so nice to know we were able to make u happy.

EternalMalachi : If the animé rooms could have a set up like the Live Action Asian Cinema rooms, with what show showing at what time w/ a brief little synopsis, that would be most helpful, I think.

Response : we wish we could do this but it would take up to much space since we have over 200+ tiltes showing during the con. But if u noticed we have all the info on the website. A lot of people printed out all the titles we were showing from there home computer. Just an idea.

FanFicGuru : Video Rooms- Good, some of them weren't that heavily guarded as far as badge checking, but for the most part it was checked. Good selection this year, and the Bleach marathon definitely was a hit as well. Bravo.

Response : well we don’t check for badges for the video rooms. We do how ever check for ids for events that 18+.
We are happy to to see you enjoyed the titles we were able to bring to you. And yes bleach was the bomb this year.

Kyokun : Decent selection of fansubbed anime. I was especially happy with Rozen Maiden.

Response: well what would make fansubs better for next year. We did show over 130+ fansubs. As for rozen maiden we are glade u liked it.

ip136 said : ++ I was sooooo happy about the whole previewing stuff on Thursday for the pre-reg people. Showing The Maxx was 'boss' and very 'rad'.
++ The viewing rooms were large and awesome. It was great the diversity of anime that was being played

response : yes someone went to our thur night showings. U like the uncut ver of the maxx? That had to be one of the best American animes ever made. It nice to see u liked the titles we showed. Did u see a lot of the anime u never seen before like studio 4 c, angel egg, or hell girl?

Zouri said : Viewing rooms: 5 Stars: Great Selection and large rooms. The Bleach marathon was fun and I was surprised to se Yakkate Japan there too (I didn't get to watch much though, I was dead tired). Air was definately fun to watch and the One Piece movies are always a blast.

Response : yes!! Another satisfied customer

Darkstar said : Back to video: Almost wish they'd have people (not all the time) at the Info booths, especially with all the fansubs, that one could go up to and say "I like X, Y, and Z animes. What do you recommend from all these fansubs..." Didn't watch as much as the anime itself as I would want to.

Response : well u could ask them Or the staffers at the video rooms. There’s some Food for thought.

LastElixir said : -Anime selection - I think this was a bigger issue imo. There were 2 huge flaws in the selection.
One being the selection itself. I understand that there are people with different tastes and understandings toward anime, lots of hardcore fans, old skool, newbies, the works. What I don't understand is why is there series like Yugioh being shown. I would definately call some of the selections made rather "low end", and could've been replaced with more quality series that people can gain from. Maybe it was just me, but it felt like there were more empty chairs than the last couple of times I went to fanime.
My second issue is, why so many marathons? Don't get me wrong, great series were marathon-ed like honey and clovers, school rumble and bleach. But I think theres limitations on how much episodes one person can take. It might have been better if more shows were shown in pieces rather than sets of 25. People can take breaks without missing anything. It kinda sucks if someone gets tired after episode 10 and have to miss the rest.

Response : well u have to understand we are trying to make lots of people happy. The yu gi oh eps were showing were from the 1st season from japan and if u were a fan of the ser u would know it was never shown here in the us cause they said it was to violent for kids.
As for the empty chairs if u stayed in the rooms u would notice they got filled over time. Now for the marathons, we do these for the fans of the ser.  Its kind of a way for them to get together and enjoy the ser they love. Maybe exchange stories about what’s different between the tv ser and manga or about there favorite characters. Its Like I said its for the fans.

Milkmandan said : I know this is a stretch since only a minor portion of people will care, but for viewing anime that is NOT licensed. It would be nice if you guys put which fansubbing group's version of the anime you are showing. Its a little extra, but it does help those who care about groups translations and what not.

Response : we can see what we can do but this is the only complaint I have ever heard about this. If there is a big cry out for it will try to  do it.

Wasteland said : My main complaint is about video rooms 6 and 7, which happened to be showing 90% of the anime I wanted to watch (yeah, I'm a shoujo addict). If there were more than around 10 people in the room, some of the people will not be able to see the subtitles, since the subtitles were at a lower height than where people's heads were, so I always had to end up sitting on the floor, or slouching a massive amount to the people behind me could see. If you're to use those rooms again next year, even though it would make the visible screen smaller, I'd recommend tilting the projector up, so that the bottom of the visible screen is just above top-of-head level, then most everyone should be able to see the subtitles comfortably. Anyway, it was still a nice improvement over the TV that was plugged in one of those rooms last year!

Response :  haha u remember the tvs sets last year. Well this is the problem we run in to every year. I find it best to sit in the last seat near the center of the walk way or sit 2 seat back.

mDuo13 said : Video Rooms 6 & 7: Having projectors instead of TVs was great. Unfortunately, those rooms have rather low ceilings, so when anyone of somewhat average height or taller sat down, everyone behind him or her completely lost sight of the subtitles. It was extremely frustrating. I also encountered video problems in rooms 6 and 7 more than once: Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha had terrible playback issues. It was like the file was corrupted, because it kept looping back, displaying artifacts, and stuff. Also, I went to see Hitsuji no Uta, and they didn't have the DVD at all, so they just showed more School Rumble. Okay, I have nothing against School Rumble, but it's a lot easier to find than HnU! Oh, also, I was upset when at 6am in Video Room 1, Macross came on instead of Haibane Renmei. I was hoping so bad for it, too!

Response : yes I know. We did have problems with the dvds players since they were not compatible with the avi file. We are really sorry about that and I assure u we are working on it so it doesn’t happen next year.

Glitch said : One big complaint I can't let go.Some of the viewing rooms didn't have the schedules up outside the doors.Which meant we didn't know if their had been a change in schedule.I came into one room expecting one thing and seeing another

Response : well they were but people steal them. Sorry about that. Will see what we can co about making it better next year.

E-Chan said : On the Video Rooms and Scheduling again. At '05 Fanime there were schedules on the video room posters. They told you what would be played in that room and that room only. I found those more useful than the booklet because it had times and a brief synopsis. I didn't notice that this year. Was I just blind?.

Response : we can see if we can do that next year. Remember though it cost a lot of money to do that and we do have 11 rooms.

did u guys like f3 ep3 the attack of the Antonio Banderas blow up doll. to me that was the funniest hentai we showed all of  the 3 nights.

This year the schedule will be on the web sight soon. Keep your eyes for it. I hope most of the events all of u pick is mostly my video programming since it's the best of the best. Full stuff u never heard of and fan favorites. Also great fan made parodies like redeath, necaflowne, this is otakudom, and steam. Unfortunately we were not able to show amvs screenings since I hit a bump in the road but next year I promise next year we will bring that back bigger and better just to make it up to u fans.

Well one more thing "REMEMBER YOUR US ID CARD" so u can get in to the 16+ events.  hope to see u all this Thursday!

we are now 2 weeks away and all i can say is ......
ARE U READY!!!!!!!!
our video programming will be better then any other cons programming. if u don't believe me look around at the other cons and see what they play and what we play. look at the rooms, the marathons, the events, and the late night programming
