My bad.  Katsucon's not till next February.:)

I thought it was in DC.  Well, I guess it's pretty close.^_^

Maybe!  That's probably the only con I can go to this year, since I can use the
excuse of visiting my brother in DC.^_^

Depending on the blockbuster, not all anime is R-rated.  My local one actually does

have stuff like Dragon Ball, Sailor Moon, and Totoro in the kid's section.  What
boggles me, though, is how Clash of the Bionoids got a YRV label when 26 minutes
of footage was cut to _make_ it for kids.
