Hi all! I’m about a week out from Anime Detour 2024, which is my “home” anime convention in Minneapolis. I’m sure there are those of you who have sought out this post for my panel materials and such, so without further ado they’re linked below:
Shiny New Anime: PowerPoint Presentation (please note: this presentation requires a full version of PowerPoint because of the embedded videos. If you’re using the online viewer, please download the clips separately if you want to see them).
Shiny New Anime: Hand Out
Shiny New Anime: Clips
AMV Contest: YouTube Playlist (note that not all entrants list their AMVs on a streaming site and it’s not an entry requirement for them to do so, and sometimes if they do they will wait to “premiere” them until the conventions they’ve entered them in have occurred. This playlist includes entries that were available when I put the playlist together, which is the majority of them but not all).
Now, read below for more of my thoughts and reactions to this year’s convention!
