FUNimation East Coast Convention Invasion

Hey out there in FUNimation.com-Land!
Sully here, and we are hitting the road again this weekend for not one, but TWO East Coast conventions full of awesome.

Adam and I will be at Katsucon in Washington, DC this weekend with SPECIAL BONUS Brand Manager Charlene Ingram!

Make sure you check out our booth, because we will be Jellyfish crafting all weekend long. Materials will all be provided, and we will have staff on hand to help you make your very own Clara to love forever. And, you can keep her company with a brand new copy of Princess Jellyfish on Blu ray DVD combo pack, available exclusively at FUNimation this weekend, a whole two weeks before it comes out! Charlene is bringing the party…to be specific, the HETALIA PARTY! Come and chill in the Hetalia Lounge at the FUNimation booth. Bask in the glory that is Prussia! Revel in the white-flaggedness of Italy! Quench your thirst for France with the constant stream of all the Hetalia releases, all weekend long. We also will have some fabulous gifts with purchase at the booth as well, including B Gata H Kei-Yamada’s First Time mousepads, Princess Jellyfish shopping bags *GO GREEN*, Sengoku Basara and Phantom calendars, and even a .hack//Quantum USB wristband!

Also, check out these spectacular panels:
FUNimation Sneak Peek Panel, Friday at 3pm
Come and see the latest and greatest from FUNimation! We can’t wait to share a boatload of clips from the shiny new shows out this Spring. Check your program for the room, yo.

FUNimation Industry Panel, Saturday at 5pm
The great Adam Sheehan and myself tag-team all the dirt on what’s up with FUNimation, including a couple of VERY SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENTS. Hilarity ensues. Room number is TBD, but we will have room for all of you, trust me.

Princess Jellyfish Craft Panel, Saturday at 7:45pm
Need a bit more one-on-one time for your Clara? Then join us for this limited panel with Charlene Ingram and her lovely assistant, me. Check your schedule for the room, and I promise Charlene will be excited to see you! Need proof? See below.

And now a word from Adam:
You guys like free stuff right? Like free anime stuff? During Katsucon we are having a special promotion for our FUNimation.com Elite Video Subscription service where you could win free stuff, free anime stuff! Stop by our booth during the weekend and pick up a set of free EVS ribbons from our freebie table.

Simply attach this to your Katsucon badge and wear it around the convention to be eligible to play. FUNimation employees will be walking around the convention center from time to time looking for people with these ribbons on their badges. If we stop by and see you wearing one, you win a prize. It’s that easy! You could win anything from keychains and wristbands to blu-rays and box sets.

If you are farther south, you can kick it with Rojas at MegaCon in Orlando, FL, featuring a FUNimation Industry Panel at 12pm on Saturday, and the must-not-be-missed Sneak Peek Panel at 12pm on Sunday. Go to both, you know you want to!

We can’t wait to see you, and to those of us that can’t join us in convention bliss, we still hope you have a great weekend:)
