I guess I'm going to Katsucon after all
... because Range Murata will be GOH! (and may I add, I just love Pocky's LJ icon.
)
I was considering going to Japan instead, but I've decided to wait till Pop Japan announces their spring Tokyo/Kyoto tour.

Nippon-Go!
More information on Japan's successful bid for the 2007 Worldcon. It will be in Yokohama, a short train ride from Tokyo, and held from 30 Aug - 3 Sep 07 - Labor Day Weekend WOOOO!!!! GoH so far are Sakyo Komatsu and David Brin (authors), Yoshitaka Amano & Michael Whelan (artists), Takumi Shibano (fan).
Bit pricey though - $160 reg till 31 Dec; presupporters get $60 off, so $100 for them. Unfortunately I don't think I was a presupporter (I wasn't into anime at the time they were campaigning, dangit, and Japan seemed awfully far away). Still, I think it's worth it if I skip at least Otakon and AMA that year.

Sakura Wars #3 - will someone PLEASE licence this....
Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle #6 - Pretty Yukito cover.~____~
Comic Party #2 (series) - Definitely different from the anime.
Comic Party #2 (doujin edition) - urh... I suddenly feel more confident in my doujin skills.
CDs:
Last Exile Soundtrack #2 - 
R.O.D. Soundtrack - 





Big O OP/ED single - no, I don't have it up for download. Apologies in advance to everyone who finds this through Google. Ya know what, go order it from Anime Audio. SUPPORT LEGAL CDs dammit!!!
Haibane Renmei Image Album - peaceful and mellow as expected. although every other song seems to be performed by the same girl who did "Blue Flow."
DVDs:
Kaleido Star #1 + box - I liked the first episode a lot.
Azu #3 - Do I really have to say anything more about the joy this show brings me? PLUS a free Necoconeco pin!!!
Comic Party #4 - It is DONE!!!
Last Exile #5. :)
Misc:
Haibane Renmei wall scroll
2 Tsubasa and 1 Last Exile pencil boards - WAI!!!
1 Tsubasa and 1 XXXholic plastic folders - pretty pretty pretty...
2 Deleter manga background collections - 

GETA!!!! (Bonus point: they scare my cat!)
Best freebies: Geneon's moist towelettes. Others were going for Viz's tacky totes, but I thought Geneon's giftee was far more practical. If you want a tote, pledge to PBS, is all I have to say.
*I was surprised to see that Sasuga had a stack of Yokohama Kaidashi Kikou artbooks in their booth. Even more surprised to go back on Sunday and see that they were all gone. Maybe there's hope.
