Manga Monday: Dark Horse Manga at Anime Boston this Weekend!
03/21/2016 1:58pm
We’re excited to say that Dark Horse Manga will be doing its first panel ever at Anime Boston, this Saturday the 26th at 6 PM in the Sheraton–Panel Grand. We’re looking forward to meeting our New England area readers at Anime Boston, which is one of the largest cons for fans of Japanese pop culture in North America. Please come by our panel to hear a little bit about our past (if you’re new to us) as well as our present and future plans in 2016, and bring your questions! We’ll also be giving away prizes, including a few items that are hard to find outside Japan!
There’s so much good programming at Anime Boston, but we would like to particularly suggest you check out the events of some of the guests we know or whose work Dark Horse has a connection with. First and foremost must be Masao Maruyama, who produced the films of the late Satoshi Kon. Maruyama is a man who began his career in the 1960s working under Osamu Tezuka, but in 2016 he hasn’t lost one bit of his ambition to move anime ahead (the character Marukawa in the recent series Shirobako is based on him).
Two of the guests at Anime Boston are associated with Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt—co-creator, writer, and episode director Hiromi Wakabayashi, and the English voice of Stocking, the great Monica Rial. We’ve recently announced our upcoming manga Psycho-Pass: Inspector Shinya Kogami, a prequel to the original Psycho-Pass series, episode 9 of which was directed by Kyohei Ishiguro, making his first trip to a U.S. convention—so be sure to welcome him here, and drop by his panels!
After such series reeking of sin and criminality, may we suggest you all finish the evening by going to hell—Anime Hell, that is, the legendary late-night show of clips (some actually related to anime) whose original presenter, Dave Merrill, will be hosting the show this year at Anime Boston. As I learned from reading Dante, the only way to escape the inferno is to descend to its uttermost depths! Well, to be a bit more honest, I learned that from reading X-Men Annual #4.
