Random Question of the Week: What kind of manga do you like?

Xan is back from New York Comic Con/ New York Anime Festival 2011 and he had a great time. Due to the length of the convention as well as the numerous panels and events, SPIRAKEN has decided to break the Con Report into several Segments.



In this third and final section,Xan is joined by Baz and Rufus as they cover Days 3 and 4 of New York Comic Conr 2011. They also discuss the Karaoke meet up afterwards but this is a more fun review of the convention. There is discussion on how IGN screwed up the lines, what Baz thought about his first convention, Why Xan should not have attempted to go to the Speed Dating Panel and which cosplayer was the MPV for NYCC 2011. While not as critical as the second part, this episode is fun and worthy of checking out  so Enjoy If you would like to see the photos that were taken from Day thee of the convention, click here or on the photo of Pedobear
