Still on a California Adventure

So, a bunch of shit happened, and last I left off, I was at Geif's house.  Well, a bunch more stuff happened, and now I'm up at my grandmother's place in Visalia for a few weeks.  It's a much more work-conducive environment, since I don't have my laptop set up out in public space where I'm easily distracted.  This whole trip has been kind of strange though, since I'm bumming around, fairly broke, with only casual clothes like t-shirts in my suitcases, and I keep ending up in pretty upscale neighborhoods.  Gief's place is in a gated-but-not-really-gated community, and it's really nice, it has several parks within the neighborhood, and a pair of pools.  Then I came up to my grandmother's place, which is in an actual gated community, all the houses are huge, they all have their own pools...  Luckily my uncle is a slob, so I don't feel too out of place around here.

As far as AX goes, there's a handful of things I'm really looking forward to.  First and foremost is Miku, of course...  but they've announced some guests that are exciting as well.  I'm not sure whether I care or not yet, but they announced the producer of Saihate as a guest of honor.  Some VN guys will be there, and while they aren't the autograph kind of guests, I'll be interested to go to the Q&A sessions and stuff, since that industry is pretty interesting.  Miyuki Sawashiro will be there too, and she's voiced a million characters I like, so it's going to be hard to choose what/who to have her sign (I'll probably get a print of one of her roles from the artist's alley).  They've also announced that the mangaka who wrote Kimagure Orange Road will be there, so I'll have to get him to sign something as well, that series is one of the great classics of the shounen romance genre.

I guess my goals for AX are the same as any other convention.  I'll go to the events that seem cool, take pictures of cosplayers, and scour the dealers hall and artist alley for merchandise of my froggy waifu.  Cross your fingers for me, Suwako goods are fairly uncommon.  I think my focus this time around is going to be on digging through doujin bins hoping to luck into a copy of "King of Moriya" or something.

In terms of WOW!scans stuff, obviously I've had my nose to the grindstone lately.  At the moment, I'm waist-deep in the script for the Me and Kawase sequel chapter, and either Mei or Anal Angel is going to be up next.  Prunus Girl comes out around the 22nd, so I'm going to try and at least get one chapter of Mei and AA out before then, and maybe Reversible too if I have the time.  I don't know if people realize, but I put in three eight hour days to get this past weekend's releases out; scanlation is a major time-sink even when I'm not getting the translation credits for a particular chapter.  In any case, just wait patiently and things will keep coming out.
