Nothing here really catches my eye in a MUST WATCH kind of way, but I might end up checking out Ironman (if just for the lulz. I feel so cheated by the trailer OTL) Stardriver and Bakuman (been meaning to reading the manga, just never got around to it).

Though then again, if none of these are available for legal streaming I probably won't end up checking any of these out and just stick with Hetalia. Not much of a downloader/torrenter since my computer has become a bit of a magnet for viruses and I hate when fansub groups drop a series mid-way or when my go to site for a show has a bunch of dead links for anime because they got taken down for copyright reasons.

Thanks for the warm welcome guys! I'm feeling a lot better now, I guess it's the whole first week culture shock and all XD

I have not been to fanime before! I'm from Southern California so I've been to AX 4 years and Comic Con 1 year (this year actually ^^). I've been wanting to check out fanime, so I'm working on getting the funds for it (college student remember OTL). Luckily fanime isn't for a while yet (May right?) so hopefully by then I'll have proper funds for all three cons.

Of course with the whole being a college student and all comes the ever present lack of funds and lack of car and what not. Also the schedule is a bit tight, but I do intend on checking out No Name Anime eventually. May also venture a first trip down the Lightrail to check out Japantown this weekend if the schedule allows.

Again, thanks for the warm welcome guys! I really appreciate it and hope to see/talk to you more on the forums :D

Hi, hope I'm not jumping on this too late or anything, but I'm also someone who's rather new to the Santa Clara area and looking for fellow anime fans I could potentially meet go to fanime with and have a lot of fun with.
I'm a freshman at Santa Clara University living in the dorms and apparently the anime club that was running at the university no longer exists (I'm assuming that the founders graduated 2010 and not enough people were around to start it up again).
Like a lot of people here, I'm pretty shy especially with my fandom (been actually getting a little homesick because of it) so knowing that I have even one friend up here who I can talk anime with without shame would make me feel a whole lot better ^^;
Also, if there's anyone here who goes to SCU please by all means speak up! I wasn't kidding when I said I was feeling lonely here, so even knowing of your existence would mean a lot to me.
