Ten largest North American anime conventions of 2009 - AnimeCons News News Report January 12, 2010 Ten largest North American anime conventions of 2009 by Patrick Delahanty, AnimeCons.com Senior Editor Looking back on 2009, there seem to be two black clouds hanging over the anime convention world: the economy and the swine flu scare. While they may have been a concern for those attending anime conventions, the anime convention industry still saw some growth throughout the year, even if that growth wasn't as rapid as it had been several years ago. With 2009 unemployment rates in the United States ranging from 7.7% to 10%, the economy impacted many conventions as people cut back on the number of conventions they attended and opted to visit nearby conventions rather than travel to larger conventions. The threat of swine flu started to affect anime conventions in the spring when some Japanese guests cancelled appearances out of fear. Our anime convention database contains 257 conventions for 2009. Coming in fifth is Sakura-Con.

Posted on the BBSHONTEN(HIRU NO BU)(本店（昼の部）, honten(hirunobu)?) in 1998. Shift_JIS art (Shift_Japanese Industrial Standards art) is artwork created from characters within the Shift JIS character set, a superset of ASCII intended for Japanese usage. Shift_JIS has become very popular on web-based bulletin boards, notably 2channel, and has even made its way into mainstream media and commercial advertising in Japan. Within the Japanese community, Shift_JIS art is sometimes abbreviated as SJIS art, but is most commonly referred to as "AA" meaning ASCII art, although it rarely restricts itself to the 95 printable characters within the ASCII standard. As with ANSI art, SJIS art is sometimes used for animation. In Japanese media[edit] The Japanese movie and television show, Densha Otoko (電車男?) Gallery[edit] Giko neko (ギコ猫, gikoneko?)

Le site du jour : Les lapins de Kozyndan Ces derniers temps, le nom «Kozyndan» a surgi un peu partout. Couple d'artistes angelinos (Kozue et Dan), kozyndan est l'auteur de What's next, USA-chan?
