I run into this all the time when new acquaintances ask me "Are you fluent in ...

Questions for Maaya at AnimeFest?
I'm going to AnimeFest! Since there may (?) be a fan panel, submit any questions you would like me to try to ask Maaya if I get the chance. I'm also trying to arrange an actual interview on behalf of maayas.net. We count as a real fanclub and fansite, don't we? ;-) So fire away with those questions,...

[quote="roxfan"][quote="Therax"]And she was right a million times. Every time that idiot in the audience said "anata," it made me cringe and want to leap up and tear his throat out. "Anata" is familiar, intimate, and entirely inappropriate to use with someone you've never met before. [/quote] Actual...

[quote="Grey Archangel"]WOW. Thanks for the link, roxfan. I love how she's clapping for herself. XD[/quote] I think she's actually clasping her hands together in surprise at the audience reaction. Listening to my recording, you can hear just how long and how loud we clapped for her after that unexpe...

[quote="slippy"]But because she wasn't promoting a new series (thus why I'm surprised she didn't perform Loop during the encore), obviously Geneon would have to put it somewhere else, if at all. Anison concerts are hard to find.[/quote] Considering her responses at the panel ("Do you know Tsubasa Ch...

I had some trouble accessing the site earlier today. DNS troubles? Also, the computer my scanner is attached to died a sudden death, so you'll all have to wait a bit longer to get concert program scans. These are already available from a few other AX2005 reports.
