Fansub as official script

Wednesday, January 16th, 2008

Companies sometimes steal from fansubbbers, so it would be interesting if they started buying instead. However, the official announcement says nothing about the source of the script. The only evidence is Roxfan’s e-mail.

Official Russian title “Девочка, покорившая время” (The Girl Who Conquered Time) sounds not too bad, although it probably says something about the Russian psyche and the conquistador complex. Now you guys know why everyone in the West is so wary about the Empire.

Tokikake attendance

Saturday, June 14th, 2008

Unbelievable:

At the 6pm showing last night, I counted less than 30 heads in the theater.

Jumping into a car and driving to L.A. is not a big deal for me, it’s only 4.5 hours away by I-5. However, I’m a bit busy throwing my belongings into cardboard boxes for a move which cannot be rescheduled. It simply is a bad time. I’m going to miss Yoko Ishida at AX, too. But what about the rest? Everyone has got an excuse too, apparently.

UPDATE: Scott twittered: “The crowd was still very small, probably only a dozen. The weather is crappy today, so that could be the reason for the low turnout.”
