I recently discovered that show. I plan to watch it in the background when I do some studying. I was kind of sad when they stopped top gear, so this new show seems interesting.

I don't care about crowd as Japan's Comiket is about five times the crowd size than Anime Expo and it's held on humid summer and frigid winter. I stopped going to Anime Expo 10 years ago because I don't feel like spending money on trip and lodging to LA just for anime related activity. Plus Crunchyroll Expo in SF Bay Area is doing just as well as AX when it comes to showcasing upcoming latest shows, Japanese guests, and legit merchandises. Speaking of panel, I went to Anime Japan in Tokyo back in 2017 and I had this incredible experience of attending animation workshop held by former Studio Ghibli animator, Hitomi Tateno. I had to draw 5 inbetween frames of Sosuke from Ponyo within an hour. I stopped care about fan panels in the US as anyone can gather info from interweb and spew out whatever stuffs that people wants to hear. I never consider myself as an expert, but I'm skeptical about credential of fan panelist(s) as some of them have dubious reason to masquerade their "lectures" as a party space.

Holy... I didn't know other people knew of this game. I've never heard anyone talk about it, like, at all. Been playing it on off since it was released. Gotten back into it after setting it on my phone. ... Still yet to beat any of the campaigns though TT^TT

I had to write a comic about engineering economy for my class explaining about how finances worked. It was a difficult night T.T
