AGP#043 – Otakon 2013 Carcast

In this episode we make the mistake of trying to record a podcast
in a moving car! Evan and Ink, exhausted from a weekend at Otakon
2013 talk about the ups and downs of the convention with Vinnie
and Vince Averello. The audio quality isn’t great, but for a
podcast recorded on a portable recorder in a car, I think we did
a damn good job. Show notes and links are after the break, as
always.

[0:00:00] Opening Song: “Kill Me” by Lame
Drivers


[0:00:15] Say hello to the GPS navigation
voice, and say hello to our four hosts.


[0:04:00] The classic: “What was your
favorite thing at the con?” Hint: the Yoko Kanno concert.


[0:17:00] We talk Japanese guests,
especially Masao Maruyama, Shinichiro Watanabe (and his new
show, Space Dandy), and the Anime Mirai guests. The 2011 Tohoku
earthquake charity song that MAPPA did an animation for is
called “Hana wa Saku” (“Flowers will Bloom”). The animation
isn’t online, but here’s a nice music video for the song with
English subs.


[0:43:00] A mix of panel discussion and
some concerns about lines, crowd control, and some rude
staffers.


[1:21:00] Final thoughts


[1:26:00] Ending Song: “Kill Me”
