However, following her and her … Continue reading [Review] Alien Idol by JIAE

By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting TL/DR I would say that this is an excellent starting place for first-time attendees to fan/anime conventions. It is a PG-13/TV-14 friendly event based on the content I saw displayed. The overall cost of the ticket was relatively cheap too (about $20 for online purchase, and $25 at the door). (“Cheap” cost in terms of the local area—I recognize … Continue reading [Event Review] Fangaea 2023 – A Fantastic Fandom Experience!

By: Peggy Sue Wood | @pswediting I want to tell you all a little story about me. From my perspective as a former athlete. From the look on my coach’s face, I knew the fall I was about to take would not end well. My mother, her friend, and an ice rink full of people heard a deafening thunk noise over the chatter of a … Continue reading [Reflection] Endo and Kobayashi Live!
