Ok so at funimation con earlier justin briner admitted he'd been making a lot of soup over quarantine so please imagine this

Nene: *walks into the bathroom and there's suddenly a bowl of soup in her face* hanako what is this

Hanako: I heard girls like a man who can cook so I made you some soup

Nene: ...where did you make this...

Hanako: uh.... totally not in the toilet bowl

Nene: right... what's in it

Hanako: well... some carrots, onions... radish

Nene: you are so lucky that kou's raiteijou is sealed

Funicon Day 1: Fruits Basket Voice Actor Q&A | 00:00 GMT | Room 1

Celebrate the hit shoujo classic’s new second season with the English voice cast of Fruits Basket!

Join Eric Vale (Yuki) Jerry Jewell (Kyo), and Colleen Clinkenbeard (Akito), as well as season two’s new character cast Aaron Dismuke (Kakeru) and Caitlin Glass (Machi, ADR Director) for some Q&A, a live reading, and even an advice corner courtesy of the Student Council! Hosted by Caitlin Glass.

That live reading has me VERY excited! And the Student Council Advice segment should be good too since I don't think any of them would give actual GOOD advice except maybe Yuki.

Funicon is Funimation's own Virtual Convention. It's completely free, you just need to register to receive a code to log into the event. You can register at funimation(.)com/funimationcon2020

The show could serve to be a really touching iyashikei if it plays its cards right. I'd certainly be down for some "isekai healing" right now.

My favourite moments from Funimation Con 2020 - day one

Finding out that Justin Briner has been smack talking all the others in the MHA OJ 2 esports tournament and constantly asking if they've been practicing

Caitlin Glass' story about being on Baccano with J Michael Tatum and both of them having to shake their hands really aggressively to make it sound like they were on a cobblestone road

Right Stuf making the preposterous claim that there's at least $3 worth of merch in their warehouse at one time (don't lie to us... we know it's 5)

The tour guide spending his time messing around on a forklift, squeaking rubber duckies and showing us the jar of the Ashes of Problem Customers, as well as yeeting a collector's set with a glass in it from the top of the warehouse to show how good their packaging is

"I'm so mad I just sizzled myself"

"If I don't make a sound when I'm blinking, am I really blinking"

A trailer for Chainsaw Man on the Shonen Jump panel that just said "chainsaw" over and over again for a minute or two

Christopher Sabat claiming that he got the part of All Might because the director gave him a piece of her hair in the corridor and told him to eat it

"She's brilliant at casting... because she cast me, pretty brilliant am I right"

Justin Briner's vigilante name being "The Big Bad Brian" (for God knows what reason)

Chris' answer to what other MHA character he'd voice if he had to choose a different one - "I'd like to be Bakugo but I don't really want to scrape blood off my vocal chords"

"I had a bad time at my own panel"

J: "I ask him what I want for lunch" C: "He's actually broadcasting from a shed in my back garden"

Justin's quirk apparently being that he can boost nearby Wi-Fi signals by 1000% but he has to make old modem dialup noises for it to work (which he demonstrated wonderfully)...

...And Chris' being that he can whistle at the right pitch to summon koalas and his breath smells like eucalyptus

Jad Saxton telling Tia Ballard, without laughing, that in this episode Nene was going to meet "a couple types of ghostypoos"

Tyson Rinehart introducing us to his home recording booth with "come along my children, let me tell thee a tale... a tale of anime"

"THIS IS- BLEHHHHH"

Ian Sinclair complaining that it's hard to record because "everyone loves to mow their lawn at 10am"

Emily Neves enjoying being the mirror version of Aoi because it let her be a Mean Girl for a bit

Apparently if Aoi found Akane on a dating app she would say "3 points" and swipe left

Aaron Dismuke describing Natsuhiko as a 'middle school wannabe chad' (accurate)

"Mitsuba's too pure for this world... it works out because he's not in it anymore... I shouldn't have said that-"

His summary of the story of the Wendigo being "Don't eat people. That's bad. And this will happen in case the 'that's bad' wasn't enough"

Tia's new nickname for Nene being "Nene Legs-Totally-Don't-Look-Like-Daikons Yashiro... periodt"

Finding out that Justin's scared of the deep sea too (I'm not alone!) and Megumi Ogata's yorishiro would be the smiles of her fans (I died of wholesomeness... her favourite characters are the Mokke too)

Megumi also thinking that all her roles (including Itona, Nagito and Naegi) would make good Mysteries

Luci Christian choosing Momo's quirk as most useful during quarantine because "I have two kids in the other room trying to be quiet, if I could pull a trampoline out of my body that would be great"

Christopher Wehkamp's favourite Aizawa line being "uuuuuuuugh"

One of FLOW's members having a greenscreen background and another saying "one of us has wandered off to the Amazon river"

Vibing to Colors before logging off for the night because it was nearly 11 by that point

Can't wait for day two to start later!!

My favourite moments from Funimation Con 2020 - day two

"Todoroki could offset climate change if he was strong enough"

"I've got a whole buffet of hair to eat"

(ONS spoilers) Justin Briner finding out that Mika was coming back later despite having just died horribly and reacting like "WHAT HOW"

Brina Palencia admitting that "there have been many times I've smacked myself in the face, or hit my microphone, or knocked my headphones off, I get violent" in the booth

Her story that she got into voice acting because she asked how to audition while on a tour and a head popped up from a cubicle and said "I don't know" so they went round every cubicle until they found the right person to ask...

...and her one about watching Tokyo Ghoul to get into the role of Touka and her husband walking in, staring at the screen for a few seconds and saying "are you the one with purple hair" "yeah" "makes sense"

Clifford Chapin (Bakugo's VA) acting tough at the MHA Gameshow while his dog is asleep on the sofa behind him

The conversation suddenly veering into Animal Crossing.... Caitlin Glass "I have a 5 star island, thank you" Justin Briner "Woah, Caitlin!" C: "You can come and visit it sometime" J: "My animals have given up on me"

"Look at all this cheese you wasted, you could have just used a post-it note"

Some of the incredible guesses in the gameshow... "Heroes Rising and that other one" "Thug A" "Todoroki, Deku and Tatum" "Tokoyami on sax" "Wolverine, Superman, Ricco (Fajardo, VA of Mirio)" "Bread, soup machine, dragon lady"

"I misheard the questiooooooon.... UNACCEPTABLEEEEEE"

Attempting to play along at home but doing dreadfully because I've seen two episodes and read one manga (also I know nothing about instruments so I put guitar instead of bass and was like "they're pretty much the same right? Do I get that point?")

A summary of the Endeavour vs Nomu fight in One's Justice 2: 'Uh oh I'm stuck in a building"

"Once you got in close you just melted my face"

Watching a Q and A with Chris Wehkamp, Sonny Strait, Monica Rial and Kara Edwards (who I was especially excited to see as I know her for Sakura Nanamine but she wasn't at the TBHK panel)

"You have to do weird things to get those noises out of your face"

"I wonder if sound waves are vegetarian"

Matt Mercer telling us that the weirdest sound effect he's ever had to make was a 'slightly aroused cat hit sound'...

...And the story about giving a game's NPCs heavy Scottish accents so that this little moe cat girl at a café would say "HEY THERE WOULD YA LIKE SOME COFFEH" (no offence to Scottish people we literally live right next to each other- I just needed to write it like that to show how strong it was)

Trying to not dance too aggressively to Silhouette by Kanaboon (because I was on the couch with my parents) or cry because con was nearly over (because I was tired and emotional)

Alicia Marie in the Cosplay Showdown wearing leggings with troll faces all over them (I want some now-)

"These people are so cool and fun and sexy and I am none of these things"

"I'm busting out the toilet paper rolls, y'all are in trouble now"

The cosplay horror stories we were told... Phil "halfmooned an entire cafeteria" because his kilt got stuck in his pants, Riki's crotch seam split when she was squatting for a photo, Alicia had sharp horns on her shoulders and had to try not to stab people all day and Lauren's armour had to be safety-pinned to her because it kept falling off

Phil finishing two or three minutes early (they had an hour to make a jetpack) while everyone else was rushing "You're taking a water break? Now?" "Ah, delicious"

Proof that the internet is made for cats... Alicia sacrificed her fizzy drinks for the 4th of July for her jetpack... Lauren used some fabric rags to make flames, which was really clever... Riki did some awesome wings with LEDs in them... Phil made a Nyan Cat jetpack which he put on his cat and won (no offence to him, it was absolutely adorable and they all did amazingly)

"We've had 700 votes in" "Wow, 700 witnesses to this hot mess"

Thank you so much to everyone involved with the con, I had the time of my life and everything was incredible... and now we wait until the next con!

[beepbeepdespair]

Okay so you're probably thinking "another con? Is this girl insane?" And the answer is yes because its on the weekend after the other one i mentioned-

Well I only found out about it today thanks to Google's front page so I'm gonna tell y'all why you should come (wow funimation! Free advertising!)

Its free! It's online! There's a TBHK panel! And a flow performance! And kanaboon! And lisa! Basically just look it up and register! Get your funky badge and join me because I'm forever alone... anyway SEE YA THERE hopefully

[beepbeepdespair]

me seeing the virtual anime and gaming con finish: aw that was so nice I loved it, I definitely need to recover now though

also me, who got a ticket for funimation con weeks ago and it starts on Friday: NICE TO NICE TO KNOW YA LET'S DO IT AGAIN

[mandaplace]

The end of FunimationCon2020 was spot on perfect for me to catch some 4th of July fireworks!! Thanks again @funimation for the amazing Con!!!!
