Anime-Beta TNG

I've made copies of backgrounds at FedEx Kinko's before though it was several years ago. At the time, you use whatever paper they have. I have never tried to bring paper into the store and asked them to print it on that. At the time, it seemed that unless you bought the paper through them (like the ...

Fanime has canceled. Anime Expo will be a virtual only format. MomoCon has canceled. E3 will be a virtual only format. ...Still waiting on whether or not Animazement in May will cancel... I assume it's going to be a long time before conventions can come back to how they were pre-pandemic. Some of th...

It's from Meitantei Conan (dubbed as "Case Closed") and that's Ran Mori, the girl that the main character, Shinichi, lives with after the poison meant to kill him backfired and turned him into a kid.

It's a hugely popular show in Japan. Been running for decades now.

I feel sooo old when Sensei reminds me that this is the 15th year we've had this topic :hurt: 1. What was the best thing that's happened to your gallery/collection in 2020? I updated more frequently than I thought I would. My corner of the world has been largely locked down since the end of February...

Sorry! Totally referring to settei, the character design! I have a few Full Metal Alchemist Settei and they just look amazing so I was wondering if it was the actual creator of the manga and series who does them or an artist for the studio is hired to do them? Settei are drawn by the character desi...

Here is another fantastically dumb question! What is an art card? 😅 I guess you would call them trading cards? They were a lot more popular during the 1980s-early 2000s when smartphones weren't around and having images of your favorite characters wasn't so readily available. Do they even make these...

I just received my package from them (I had it sent via DHL) so I am assuming that things are slowly going back to normal with them. I hope you get yours soon too

I created a package on 10/10 and still have not received an invoice from Zenmarket. This is the first time I've had this sort of experience with them. I contacted them yesterday and asked if they could give me an update as to the status of the packing but have not heard anything yet. I was planning ...

Ok, I stand corrected. I had no idea that Mandarake now has a new category with a new description. I had always assumed that the English translation was just an truncated version of the Japanese version and had hoped that the Japanese text would specify if they were copies or not. Still can't believ...

The corrections look like authentic genga to me. It looks like the scans were made on an oversized scanner, so at least in the Madoka case, they were able to fit 4 sheets on it. I would imagine that the scanner that Mandarake has access to is much larger than my A3 oversized scanner, so while I can'...

Figure it's time for my 2 year update.. Manga - Currently reading - Skip Beat! Ouroboros - I'm glad it didn't go the same route the live action did, but it feels like it's dragging as the end is nigh. Nobunaga's Chef - still keeping up with this Oresama Teacher - I have a big backlog on this series ...

It depends on how badly stuck the background is to the cel. You can also try the freezer method, where you put the cel in a Ziploc bag for a couple hours and then start to pull things apart. Usually, it will take multiple days of doing this...and in some cases, if the background is plastered to the ...

Congrats on making it 20 years in the hobby, Sensei. Not many people can say that they've been around and actively participating as long as you. ..still have 3 years to go until I hit my 20 year marker.. Ugh..do we have to talk about the CCS dub, "Cardcaptors" (I am always tempted to anoth...

Anime Expo has cancelled. Crunchyroll Expo has cancelled. AnimeFest has cancelled. Anime Matsuri has cancelled. That leaves AWA in Atlanta and AnimeNYC. I would not be surprised to see those both cancel as well. At this point, I think it's safe to say that pretty much every convention, with exceptio...

Mylar is only for paper items like backgrounds and shikishi. The paint will stick to mylar and will become impossible to separate without damage to the cel. Question - Will the archival paper stick to the back of the cels? I remember receiving cels with tissue paper stuck to the back of them and wha...
