Hatsune Miku Cosplayer Goes Viral For Selling ‘Feet Juice’ Outside Anime Convention

I think the highlight of my #FanimeCon this year was, surprisingly, fan panels. There was an excellent one about cybernetics in anime—accuracy of the portrayal, nearest modern-day equivalent, etc.—and another intriguing one about gender and giant robots (about how certain recurring themes in the mecha genre have particular relevance to trans-femme people's lived experiences).

Nagahama: "Also, I did the design for this castle in Utena, where they can't seem to get farther away from it and then it's revealed that it has all these wheels and it's been chasing them. You can kinda see how I wanted it to look like a Star Destroyer. Anyway, they made a CGI version of it for use in the show, and all of us on the staff complained that it looks really jarring, like can we do something to make it look less CG? And you know what Ikuhara said? He said, 'Well, we made it with CGI, so what would be the point if you couldn't tell that it's CG?' That's how you know what a genius he is—this is supposed to be my panel, but somehow it's become about Ikuhara instead!" #FanimeCon

At his panel, Hiroshi Nagahama is explaining a bunch of details about the mechanical designs for the cars in Utena, and how for one of them it started with Ikuhara's request to make it kind of like a scene from Speed where Keanu Reeves is sliding around on a board or something? But he ended up making a thing where the characters are kind of entwined in an X shape and got Ikuhara's OK for that instead. #FanimeCon

I'm very thankful that registration for #FanimeCon is consistently fast now. I don't at all miss the bad old days of waiting 4+ hours to get my badge.
