Fanime! started today, and I am currently en route to San Jose for that very reason. As previously reported, Jon went in 2009, convinced me to join him 2010 (to which we did a five part followup), abandoned me for 2011, and all of team snowulf went last year (as covered by Jon, Lauren, and [...]
FanimeCon 2012 and the Evolution of Anime Fandom
I have been a member of the anime fandom since the early 1990s… over 20 years. In that time I have seen the community grow and evolve in amazing ways. One such way can be seen in how we get access to anime and manga. When I was first getting into Anime, I was very [...]
Fanime Report: Friday & Saturday
While we have an anime category, we don’t talk about it in excess (only 26 posts over 7 years). Be that as it may, Fanime is a big event each year for the staff of Snowulf. We’re all fans of anime, no shame in that, but our fandom is something on the quieter side as [...]
Recovering from Fanime
Report on proceedings to follow later in the week.

FanimeCon 2010 Wrap up: Part 5 of 5 – John’s View
As Jon pointed out in part 1, I am doing my own post about my Fanime experience. We arrived via our respective motorcycles and pulled into the Hilton parking garage around 2:30 PM and thankfully were able to checkin early. After sherpaing our bags to the room, we changed and headed down to check out [...]
FanimeCon 2010 Wrap up: Part 4 of 5 – Monday
== Monday == Monday started fairly early as there was packing to be done. We decided that we wanted to get out and on the road, with any luck, by 11ish since we had 250 miles to go for the day. We managed to make it fairly close to our expected departure, but not without [...]
