GRAAAHHH SORRY THIS IS SUDDEN BUT OH MY GOD I FINALLY FOUND YOU. IM THE BENREY THAT RAN UP TO YOUR BOOTH AR AMW THIS YEAR AND MY FRIEND BOUGHT ME LIKE ALMOST ALL YOUR VALVE STUFF, I LITERALLY CRIED WHEN I GOT BACK TO THEIR ROOM CAUSE LIKE DUDE. THAT MEANT EVERYTHING FOR ME, I WAS GENUINELY SO SO SO HAPPY TO SEE THE FANDOM IS STILL ALIVE AND IVE BEEN LOOKING FOR FANS IN THE WILD FOR YEARS. THE EXPERIENCE WAS ENLIGHTENING TO SAY THE LEAST AND IM SO SO JOYOUS ABOUT IT. THANK YOU SO MUCH !1!11! :•3
:D !!!! HI!!! I REMEMBER YOU!!! THANK YOU FOR STOPPING BY, I'M SO HAPPY IT WAS MEMORABLE FOR YOU!!
people who are so enthusiastic about the things i make and the fandoms i rep at my booth are THE #1 coolest part of the experience 🥺 i feel like convention artist alleys these days are mostly filled with the same 4 popular anime/mobile games and it's really hard to find less popular anime, let alone things like video games and webseries. you would not believe how many comments I got that people never see things like Team Fortress 2 or Portal in AAs, let alone stuff like Infinity Train or HLVRAI 😭 the people who recognize them are always SO excited and then I'M excited and we are BOTH excited and nerding out together. it's fantastic!!!
the hlvrai fandom is definitely still going strong! i still see a lot of fanart and community posts and my sales on my few hlvrai things on my etsy have Not slowed down lmao. i'm sure if covid didn't happen there would have been so many benry cosplayers in 2020. we were ROBBED </3 i've seen You and one benry cosplayer at ACEN last year and that was IT </3 </3 </3
#ask#agoraphobiclemons#at anime central i had an admin for one of the radiotvsolutions folks stop by my booth. they were also very excited#to see my art prints i had of the science team!! they were also very nice :3 and a neopets fan. big W#hlvrai is one of those fandoms where you might not meet them super often but when you do they're the coolest people#anyway hearing from people who saw me at cons is so so so fun#im booked for the same con next year already and fingers crossed i can get into acen again#anyway. fellow artists. bring some merch for things that aren't the biggest thing in the world#if everyone's selling genshit midpact you have to split the attention of every attendee who plays it#if you're the only booth selling something thats only moderately popular though. you'll get all that attention to yourself#and everyone that recognizes it will be really really excited about it. and then its not a Transaction its an Interaction and its FUN#i am saying this as somebody who never watches popular anime or plays gacha games pleeeeeeease diversify your catalogues dhjbdsfbhj#i started attending cons in 2016 and the 2016 ~ 2019 cons were completely different from cons in 2022 ~ 2024#and 'oh well they're Anime Cons ofc they have an emphasis on anime' isnt even an excuse because before 2020 it wasnt like that#esp here in chicago where we have like. three pop culture cons total. and they all have Anime in the name. doesnt stop anybody#or at least it didnt used to#anyway i am mentally pinning this ask in my brain corkboard and i will look at it forever <3 fandom is beautiful#THANK YOU FOR THE MESSAGE !!!! <3

Anime Central 2023, Day Two (Sat)
Day two started with another early wakeup. We met @shbumi for breakfast in the atrium. Post breakfast meant time to watch some TV, wander around for some Pokemon Go, and then change into Night Vale cosplays.
I missed not having my Glow Cloud prop with me. But sadly, last year’s Cloud did not take well to efforts to repair it. And the next version of the Cloud that was I working on just didn’t come together in time. Maybe by the next con we attend. We’ll see.
Of course, not having the Cloud prop did make getting around the con easier and I also didn’t need to worry about making sure the lights were powered off during our first event: the AMV contest. As I understand it, it’s been a few years since ACen had an AMV contest.
We got there a little early, which meant some classic AMVs from past ACens were on the screen. I haven’t been to an AMV contest since Anime Iowa 2019 and that was a very niche, very small AMV contest. Before that, I believe the only other one I’ve been to was Otakon 2012’s contest. But I have always found AMVs enjoyable and love seeing what people create. It’s also nice when you get surprised with an AMV for an older property.
There were several entries in each category, so the contest did run for basically the entire allotted two hour time period. When we went, it was actual the second time the AMVs in the contest were being shown – you could go Friday or Saturday to vote. If you didn’t want to vote, the AMVs were shown again on Sunday before winners were announced.
I’m going to be honest that I actually still haven’t looked up the winners, even now, almost a month after the con. I enjoyed voting on them and definitely had ones I preferred over the others, but it was just getting to sit and watch AMVs for a while that mattered more.
After the AMV contest, we made the rounds of the dealer hall and artist alley. It was at this point that I learned that the ACen 2023 enamel pin had been sold out. While I like the con shirts, the only ACen ones I have are for the years the con was online – I just don’t wear them that much. And I already own the bandana and any other merch I would’ve gotten. So I walked away from the merch booth empty-handed this year.
Since Friday’s trip through the dealer’s hall was rushed and I had roughly four hours to browse, eat lunch, and then get to my next panel, I wandered at a decent pace.
As always there were mystery bag vendors, ranging from actual boxes full of stuff to just bags with a random figure inside.
I am not a Hatsune Miku fan, but I had to wonder if even a fan would be willing to drop $2k on a giant plush.
When I finally got tired of walking and also from smelling all the super good food smells from the food stalls, I did a quick check on the chalk artist’s progress before heading back to the room to eat.
At 430, I went to a panel on LGBTQ Representation in Anime/Manga. It was a fun panel, trying to give a wide overview of how members of the LGBTQ+ community have been represented. Since it’s a broad panel trying to do a lot in a relatively short time frame of 1.5 hours, the panelist couldn’t go as in-depth into some of the titles or categories.
When the panel was done, I raced to the Right Stuf panel, where at first I didn’t go in, because there appeared to be ACen staff controlling access. I ended up pulling up Guidebook to double-check the panel listing. I was also trying to wait for @lechevaliermalfet to meet up with me, as he’d been at a different panel. And there was a massively long line outside of the panel room, which I thought was strange. RightStuf are popular…but not that popular.
I did end up asking the staff member guarding the door if I was at the right spot for the RightStuf panel, and this was confirmed. I was allowed in at about 615pm. Not ten minutes later, the panel ended very abruptly. And @lechevaliermalfet and I left very irritated and confused, because the panel was listed as going until 7.
Well, it turns out there was a bit of a scheduling snafu that occurred. Aniplex had announced the premiere of the Englush dub of Maschle: Muscles and Magic, with ACen VA guest Aleks Le in attendance as well. And it was scheduled in the same room as the RightStuf panel had been…and it was scheduled for 630. Yep. They had managed to overlap two industry programming events in the same room by 30 minutes. RightStuf had apparently done a rapid-fire version of their standard panel and it was just our misfortune to wander in when we did and not realize what was going on. It should also be noted that unless you were following ACen’s Discord or Twitter, the exact title being premiered was unknown – it was never updated to Guidebook (and that remains the case now, in June, as I do this writeup – I had to go digging through my notes and Discord to confirm).
Well, ok. We suddenly had a small bit of free time on our hands. The next panel of interest was at 7 with Helen McCarthy, and it was barely 630. What to do? Not enough time to run to the hotel to eat and the dealer hall was closed. So to the gaming room we went!
That is one thing I like about ACen – unless you’re attending a main event in the Hyatt, it never feels like you have to really stress for time to get from panel to panel. Or from hall to hall. We killed some time on a Space Invaders machine and the claw machines (didn’t win), and then headed out for our panel.
I have to say, the next panel was fascinating. Sniffing Glue: The Punk Energy of Early British Anime Fanzines with Helen McCarthy was a panel that really I was attending just because of the speaker. Helen McCarthy, in my experience, manages to make anything anime-related interesting. And her personal anecdotes liven up the history, elevating it from simple dry facts and timelines. Well, this particular subject was super personal to her – this ties directly to Helen McCarthy’s lived experience as a British anime fan back in the day. She spoke not only of contributing to fanzines but even editing one with her partner at one point. And that’s where the title comes from, because gluing a fanzine together could apparently leave you rather high if you were doing it indoors with the windows closed during an English winter. This panel also included a plea for fans considering getting rid of their fandom ephemera to consider reaching out to academic libraries and similar institutions and making a donation of the items instead. Fanzines and similar are quickly lost or destroyed as time goes on, and so it’s an area of social history that doesn’t perhaps has as much material to draw from. Donating to an academic institution or digitizing collections of these works can help preserve them for future generations to study and appreciate.
After this, our stomachs were growling, since it was just after 8pm. Time for dinner!
After dinner, and realizing that somehow, we’d just been dawdling in the room trying to decide what to do, I realized that I still had a bagful of manga to donate to the manga library. And I wasn’t too keen on hauling it around with me on Sunday from panel to panel until I could get over there. So, with roughly 30 minutes to go before the library closed for the day, we booked it over. Yes, booked it – walking from the Embassy Suites to the Hyatt can take anywhere from 7-15 minutes, depending on your walking pace, whether you walk outside or in the skywalk, etc. Poor @lechevaliermalfet – I think he thought I was being a bit ridiculous with my pace, and I probably was. But we did arrive on time to hand over the bagful of manga, and the librarian was very happy. I ended up getting badge ribbons for my donation, which is a first for me at ACen. And only the second time I’ve gotten badge ribbons, ever, that I can recall.
After that, we moved a lot more slowly back to the room to kill a little more time before what we had listed as our final panel of the night. The History of Cosplay – again with Helen McCartthy – was listed as being at midnight. Which seemed odd, as it was not an 18+ event and usually guest events aren’t scheduled that late unless they’re 18+.
We were there right on time. And we sat and waited. Other attendees trickled into the room, but there was no sign of our guest. Or ACen staff. At ten after, people began comparing the situation to being on time for a class and the professor being late. By fifteen after, attendees were actively trying to reach out to staff. One tried calling a volunteer staffer that they knew via their cell phone. Another left the room to talk to the staff in the information booth in the panel area. And I hopped on Discord.
Discord apparently was the fastest way to get an answer, as I soon received a reply that the Guidebook entry was in error. The panel was scheduled for noon on Sunday. I let our fellow attendees know and everyone began to trickle out of the room.
@lechevaliermalfet and I decided to head over to the Synergy dance. It had been going a couple of hours by that point and so we hoped that we would be able to just walk in, like we had done with the Soap Bubble. No such luck. When we arrived, not only did the line fill the carefully roped and winding path in the hotel, but we were informed that it stretched to the outside. Curious to see just how bad it was, we headed outside and walked the line. Now, granted, it only took us about a minute to reach the end of the line, which had followed the exterior wall of the hotel and therefore curved into part of the parking area. And the line was moving. But we estimated that the length outside, plus that inside, combined with the speed of the line, meant we would be in line for 30 minutes to an hour before we entered the rave. And that as a big ol’ nope for us. If we had come better prepared to stand that long in line, that might be one thing. But we hadn’t.
And so Saturday ended with a bit of a letdown.

Tropa de Ludmilla surpreende o Coachella
A tropa de Ludmilla surpreende o Coachella, dando um choque de realidade àqueles que ainda ignoram o impacto do funk e da artista.
Ludmilla no palco do Coachella — Foto: Reprodução/Instagram/@rachlpolack @poonehghana
Celebrada por Beyoncé, a cantora se consagra dentro e fora do Brasil com um eletrizante show de música e dança no importante festival norte-americano.
♪ OPINIÃO – Ludmilla fez jus à moral dada por Beyoncé no áudio ouvido na abertura do show apresentado pela artista fluminense no palco principal do festival Coachella, na Califórnia (EUA), no início da noite de domingo, 14 de abril.
“Do Rio, Brasil, para a Califórnia, direto para o Coachella. Senhoras e senhores, Ludmilla!”, anunciou uma orgulhosa Beyoncé, em inglês, fazendo as honras da casa para a colega brasileira. E Ludmilla honrou o acolhimento da antecessora norte-americana.
Aperitivo para a turnê Ludmilla in the house, que percorrerá o Brasil a partir de maio, o show de Ludmilla no Coachella 2024 foi eletrizante, consagrador. Poderia até ser dito que a apresentação de música e dança teve “padrão internacional” se a expressão não fosse injusta com os profissionais brasileiros, já que a própria Ludmilla fez shows pautados pela excelência técnica em festivais nacionais como o Rock in Rio 2022 e o The Town 2023.
Só que, sim, Ludmilla estava no palco internacional do Coachella, festival de visibilidade planetária, ao menos no mundo pop ocidental. E, uma vez em cena, a preta venceu, inclusive por ter cantado em português na maior parte do show.
A girl from Duque de Caxias até acenou para o mercado pop latino hispânico, cantando o recém-lançado merengue Piña colada (2024) com Ryan Castro. O roteiro também incluiu No se ve (2023), música gravada por Ludmilla com a cantora argentina Emilia Mernes, estrela do pop portenho.
Contudo, em essência, o show da primeira cantora negra, latino-americana e LGBTQIA+ a se apresentar no palco principal do Coachella foi calcado no funk made in Rio de Janeiro.
Com tropa formada por dançarinos negros, brasileiros e norte-americanos, presenças fundamentais para o brilho da cena, como atestado no medley de funk que antecedeu a troca de figurino da cantora, Lud expôs o funk da favela em roteiro que alinhou sucessos como Rainha da favela (2020), Verdinha (2019), Onda diferente (2019), Cheguei (2016) e Favela chegou (2018).
O sensual jogo de cena da cantora com a bailarina e esposa Brunna Gonçalves, em Maldivas (2022), legitimou na prática o discurso contra a intolerância ouvido na voz da deputada trans Erika Hilton após o áudio de Beyoncé.
Transmitido pelo canal do Coachella no Youtube (cinco horas após a apresentação), o show de Ludmilla no festival norte-americano foi espetacular do ponto de vista musical e técnico (tendo contado com a experiência cênica de profissionais de grandes turnês, como Henry Bordeuax e Zack Purciful), mas a importância da apresentação transcende a questão musical.
O alto valor do show também reside no fato de a artista ter marcado posição política naquele cobiçado palco, expondo imagens de comunidades no telão, beijando a mulher em cena e a reafirmando o poder dessa preta talentosa que obteve mais uma vitória na noite de 14 de abril de 2024.
A consagração de Ludmilla no Coachella 2024 foi tapa na cara de quem sempre tapou os ouvidos em tentativa vã de ignorar o funk e as vozes das comunidades. Ontem Ludmilla se consagrou como uma rainha do Coachella, fazendo história que jamais poderá ser apagada da música pop brasileira.
No palco principal do relevante festival dos EUA, a tropa da Lud deu choque de realidade em quem ainda insiste ignorar o alcance mundial do funk brasileiro e a ascensão da cantora dentro e além das fronteiras do Brasil.

Top 100 Songs of 2018
Happy New Year!
Another year and yes, another 100 songs. However, it does not appear to be a distinguishable year by any means. Or does it mean, that I’m just older and less impressionable. There are cool new features, including Chloe X Halle, Amber Mark, and Ravyn Lenae.
However, the year appears to be a hold over from last year. More Khalid, H.E.R., Daniel Caesar, Gallant, and Tom Misch.
Childish Gambino is a star. Janelle Monae seems to cross over a little more/
Pop appears to have languished for me, there is some Demi, some Mark Foster, and Troye Sivan.
I get more play from NAO and Alina Baraz
But 2018 just didn’t seem to land big with me, musically.
Or maybe, I’m just down with all the throwback, Maxwell, Tamia, and Toni.
Here is to 2019. I guess.

2022 Retrospective: May and June
May
May was a month where I was, uh, very angry on Twitter
Specifically, because ACEN rolled back their vaccine/mask policy at the literal last minute and their guest autograph policy was hot garbage
Oh and Roe v Wade got overturned
Dracula Daily, my beloved
So, obviously, I went to ACEN in Chicago
I also went to Animazement in Raleigh for their first convention since 2019. It felt like going home.
I did get to meet Cynthia Cranz (the voice of Botan from Yu Yu Hakusho) while wearing the cosplay, so that was cool.
June:
We were introduced to the glory that is Lechonk
P4G and P3P coming to Switch
Signed up to contribute to the Seasons of Souyo zine!
June was a pretty chill month I guess. Not much happened.
