Looking for new friends

If you need a room or a ride, this would be the place to make a new friend. Please note that this is NOT a place to discuss anime in general. In addition, this is NOT a relationship or solicitation forum, either.

I forgot to add Eden of the East. Such a great show but it crashes at the end. Still a memorable and great show. (I want to have that phone) Bebop is Bebop. It's amazing with a great soundtrack but I enjoy the others a bit more. But then again that's imo.

As for GTO live action, which one the 1999 or the 2012 version?

And of course I am doing more manga panels this year.
I've got 21 retro manga recommendations for grown ups, thieves in Anime and manga, retro horror in anime and manga, and teachers in manga

oooh retro horror, that sounds interesting!
Does teachers in manga include that one series always forget name of where the teacher was from a yakuza family? What the hell was that one called!!

GTO the late 90's miniseries. Hows the 2012 version, worth checking out?

The retro horror panel is full of 80s and 90s goodness.
You are talking about Gokusen, with the creepy dog pig pet. and will I be talking about it, wellyou have to come to panel to find out ;)

The 90s series of GTO is really awesome. The 2012 series is fun but is crap in the second season.

this sounds like a super wishy-washy answer: but kinda all of them? And it's driving me crazy how half the best stuff is scheduling conflicts
like your Manga for Grown-ups panel, but same time as Josei Manga panel... uhhhh, want both!

People need to start doing Twitch streams or like... upload the panel highlights to YouTube :roll:
