It's been a long year of conventions for us, and we are wrapping up with a bang at YoumaCon in Detroit, MI, November 1st-4th. It's going to be an action-packed weekend, full of shiny new Hellsing BD/DVD combo packs and MANLY TORIKO PREMIERE! So you gotta come check us out.

First off, the panels!

Awesome clips and extended looks at all the rad recent releases and cool stuff coming soon!

Saturday, November 3rd
Toriko Dub Premiere with VERY SPECIAL Q&A, 3-5pm in Panel Room A

Sunday November 4th
FUNimation Industry Panel, 10-11am in Panel Room A
Information overload from FUNimation! All the cool news and awesome announcements from one of the leaders in North American anime.

SPECIAL ADDITION:
The English dub of Blood-C will also be premiering at Youmacon at 5pm on Saturday. It will follow the Toriko premiere and will be held in the same screening room (Panel Room A).

Meanwhile, back at the booth…

We will have all the rad DVDs and Blu rays you gotta have! For the Hellsing Ultimate fans, we will have copies of 5-8 a whole two weeks before the release date, in addition to some AWESOME Hellsing Organization patches when you pick up your copy. Supplies are limited, so make sure you swing by early for it. We will also have some super-fancy Financial District credit cards to go with your copy of C-Control: The Money and Soul of Possibility. If you caught Deadman Wonderland on Toonami earlier this year, you didn't see the whole thing! There's one more episode in the box set, and you gotta pick that up. We will have some wicked mouse pads featuring Shiro, Ganta and LOTS of blood to go with your copy too.

If you haven't picked up a copy of Steins;Gate, we still have a limited quantity of pins available for you guys at YoumaCon. These won't be available much longer, so you definitely want to pick that up too. There will also be some amazing Japanese exclusives from our friends at Toei to go with your One Piece purchases. In addition, we will have art books for Aria the Scarlet Ammo, Cat Planet Cuties, Fafner and Freezing available with purchase of $50.00 or more. Some of these are a bit more…racy…than others so don't be surprised if we card you!

Thanks for a great year of conventions, guys! We will see your beautiful faces next year:)
