A note on Anime North

Located in Toronto and held on US’s Memorial Day Weekend each year, the con hosted two 765PRO ALLSTAR character voice guests in the past two years. Nakamura Eriko (CV: Haruka) was a Guest of Honor in 2013, and Hara Yumi (CV: Takane) was a Guest of Honor in 2014.

News 2015/02/19

News on hpt.moe is super casual, so please don’t mind the format, frequency, or omissions here and there. In fact, help yourselves to the news sites out there in the Links page. All we’re doing is aggregating them in English, kinda.

– LTH 9 and 10 details released. First batch of previews on youtube.

– Next takubon of the IM@S Comic is due April and you can preview the cover.

PS. It’s just for the record, so I’m going to say it only once – there is an event schedule on the official IM@S site that lists all the time-sensitive events. By that I mean pre-recorded radio shows, which there are like 5 of them (IM@Studio, Aisute, Derepa, Dereraji, Miliraji), plus the Deremas anime this half of the year. On top of those are the special events that make eventers eventers. It’s all here. Bookmark this or whatever.

Introducing @HoukagoPTime, Anniversary

Follow @HoukagoPTime for updates from this site and much more. I hope you like cartoon idols!

The main Houkago P Time chat has reached its first anniversary on 2/19. That is a meaningless number in light of the lives it touched and the fact that the core group formed over the years well before 2014. But at any rate, we are as hyped about the 10th Anniversary as you are, and today is as good as any day to get things rolling!

PS. Happy Birthday Kaachan! Yuucha!
