Hey, forgive me for posting this when still recovering from a gross lack
of sleep....if anyone has more specific questions on something, wait until
i emerge back in the cornfields on wednesday after a loooooooooooooong
time sleeping tuesday.

Anyhow at the panel

-showed the dub.  a few people left during it, but a few also straggled
in.  I think it was the only thing that was shown dubbed all
weekend.  Personally I liked it.  a LOT.  Enough to want to go to
vancouver and steal Ocean's copy of it that they have to keep somewhere
for the purposes of archiving......'cept for that wulf der sturm bit,
which Taka said wasn't his fault.....

-q&a.  pretty standard "any hope of a pickup, etc." type things, Taka sez
Tokuma will do it if 3000 people sign the petition, and that's
US/Japan/Wherever else.

-someone asked about the novels, nothing new going on with them,
though.  still no hope of a usa release at the moment.

-According to Taka, there will be something new LoGH in English at A-X
next year, and if they go to it (and he implied they will be), WorldCon.

-Other news to note: Taka says that when all is said and done, there will
be a total of 190 episodes of LoGH, including the 3 specials (2 movies and
*shudder* golden wings)

ok...back to being a mindless zombie for another 24+ hrs now...
