The second year of Anime NYC is just about here, and that means it’s time to learn what actually went right, and what didn’t this time!

But chances I’ll find out everything else about the convention Sunday. As you’ll see below, Friday will be somewhat busy. Saturday will be an insane level of busy. Now, particularly for Saturday you’ll see a few overlapping times, for two reasons:

  1. I ultimately might just change my mind.
  2. Some are backups in case I can’t get into a particular panel/screening.

So yes, Anime NYC at least on the surface promises to be pretty hectic for the most part. Whether there will be earth-shattering news we’ll have to find out. One of them may have leaked though on Twitter by accident, but we will also find that out!

So you’ll want to follow @TheOASG Twitter for any news from companies this weekend. Meanwhile, in case you’re not sure the times of each panel, they’re listed below. Anyways, let’s see how the con has improved from last year, and let’s also hope the 7 train actually works this weekend.
