Hey folks, we are all tired, and a bit insane, but I’ve finally woken up long enough to post about our last day. I would like to remind all our eager users that the cosplay galleries will be up in about two days, so keep your eyes on our site to see if you show up.

To start things off Kana and Kibs went to the fourth and final day of the Bang Zoom! workshops and were able to score an interview with Tony Oliver. It was a great interview, and we had such a great time, even though we were all kinda nervous being close to such a big name Director, Voice Actor, and Producer. The interview will be posted later this week.

Afterwards we found our favorite cosplayer, Yaya Han, and where able to do a really fun interview with her. Again, expect to see that interview posted shortly.

Kana interviewed Rockin Android and we had an amazing interview where he talked about all of the new 2D shooters that are coming to America. We even got a copy of their newest game to review, along with some kick ass trailers. You’ll see all that content only here on 91.8 The Fan.

After trying to nail down a day to do an follow-up interview with Dave Stanworth from Snafu we were finally able to catch him today. Kibs did a great job interviewing him, so be sure keep your browser dialed in on 918thefan.com for this interview.

We also went to Zelda Mythbusters, which was really fun, but not well put together, if I could offer only one tip to the presenters it would be to learn Power Point before next year. The room was packed full for it, and hopefully, next year, will be in a bigger hall. Unfortunately they had to start turning away others from the room, which was a big shame.

Meanwhile Kana and Kibs ran into Cristina Vee, better known as MilkyCabbage, and more recently known as ValliereVee on Youtube. We had a fun little exchange, hopefully we can catch up with her for an interview at Anime Vegas. We met Julie Rei Goldstien again, and were able to twitter together.

As the most awesome ending to a con ever, Sandy was finally able to find Kari wandering around the convention center. He was able to approach her as a fan this time and get a sweet autograph on his favorite FLCL bag.

      We’re uploading all of our pictures as we speak, we have a lot of them and we have to individually go through all of them and check them for quality. We’re new to this, so we’ll get better as we go along with the conventions.
