For anyone who hasn’t read my back entries, I’m from Toronto. And once a year I help out at Anime North, one of the biggest anime conventions in North America. It’s on this weekend, May 25-27.
This year I’ll also be on the Otome & Yaoi Gaming Panel, which will be in the Sheraton Hotel at 6pm, in Collingwood Yaoi North (on the Anime North map it’s called Sheridan, but really it’s the Sheraton). I would LOVE it if anyone that reads the blog comes! Not only will we get to talk a whole lot about otome and yaoi games, but I’m going to be bringing a lot of fun things like otome gaming magazines, a bunch of otome PSP games, and other stuff if you’re interested in checking them out (I may have some goodies to give out if any of my readers are actually there too, I’m not above bribing people…)
There’s also the Tokyo Demons panel, which is 10AM11AM Saturday in the Doubletree Hotel. Also a great panel to check out, and the artist rem will be there too! Is anyone else going to Anime North?

Oh, interesting. I didn’t know you were from Toronto. Well, I suppose we don’t know each other to begin with, but I stumbled onto your Twitter at some point and ended up here. I don’t really follow otome games (I’m a guy and I also can’t speak Japanese), but I suppose I might see you at the VN panel. Have fun at the con! I might drop by your panel if I’m not busy.
Boo~! I wish I could go, if just to see one of my favorite otoge blogger! (つ∀`・) Ho! Ho! (even if Toronto -is- a 19 hour drive!)
It sounds awesome, though~! Those of us who can’t make it would love to hear about it afterwards! <3
Please do! I don’t know if I’ll be able to make the VN panel, as I’m going to be in the dealer’s room a lot, but I’ll try.
That makes me happy, thanks so much for your kind words! Although it sucks that you’re so far away.
Tokyo Demons panel is at 11 am, my dear.
So excited! BRING IT ON, ANIME NORTH.
Hi lijaka! I’ve been a long time reader of your blog, since I used to frequent MNR a lot (but I’m kind of shy so I haven’t commented). XD I’m actually from Toronto too, I didn’t have plans to attend AN but if I knew you were doing an otome panel I would have loved to meet you! I’m trying to convince a friend if she wants to go with me, but yeah I probably won’t be able to make it.
^ I actually met Lianne in person before, but I don’t think she remembers me. XD I sold some Quinrose Alice stuff to her before maybe like 2 years ago lol. She mentioned she has another friend into otome games, and I think she was talking about you.
If I can’t attend, I look forward to your post on it! I would love to make more otome friends locally too XD Do you mind if I follow you on twitter? I go by @parfaitsamurai there!
Man, I swear I was looking at the schedule! Straight lines are hard…
Yay, otome gamers in Toronto, solidarity!! ( ´∀`)人(´∀` )ナカーマ!! For sure you can follow me, and I’ll do the same! It would be great to hang out at AN, but if not, I’m sure there will be other events we can meet up at *cough*otome gaming parties*cough*.
AH SOOO JEALOUS T___T
I’m down here in LA, so I’ve got Anime-Expo to look forwards to, but Canada is my birth country *cries*
If I ever get a chance to fly down during the convention, I will STALK YOU DOWN LIJAKA.
Yay, stalking! I’m still jealous of you because you have all those lovely Japanese bookstores, and for some reason Toronto still has NONE. NONE. NOT FAIR.
