This year’s Animazement was the first time I ever helped host a panel, which was pretty darn fun. Hopefully we didn’t shock to many fangirls with the knowledge that there are rock bands in Japan who DON’T wear five layers of eye-liner (or that existed before 1989)

Though, yes, this is the panel that was bogging down over projector problems in the last page.

(Historical Notes: This would only get worse the deeper and deeper we dug.  There’s a TON of interesting and historically important bands that there’s no filmed evidence of.  Some of these panels would work a lot better as podcasts)
