Anime Expo: Times and Announcements

@rahul-balaggan I know Sam got a pamphlet back at like Comiket 93 for Arifureta. He was also at the Overlap Festival which featured a lot of merch. Only thing I managed to get from that was a Yue B2 Wallscroll featuring her dressed as a waitress. (I'll take a picture later.)

Sure, I'm up for adding anything you guys want to keep track of, especially if you have a link. =]
Do you know if this has more specific dates and times, or will the exhibit just be there the whole week?
Edit: Appears to be the whole week:

https://kodanshacomics.com/2018/06/19/kodansha-anime-expo-2018/
There's not that much of details tho
Edit: Yuuki Kaji will be in Deadly Seven Sins panel but he's also MC of Zaregoto (and appeared in many other Kodansha/Vertical titles)...that's kinda amusing
-
I'm kind of trying to stick to light novel related stuff for the list in the OP. Do you think light novels may be announced at that event?
You can definitely share any events in the comments though, especially if they end up streaming / recording them. =]
-
@Terrence Oh the monogatari show looks cool! After not digging the first story too much I’m liking the second one way better and this exhibit should get me even more fired up.
-
@terrence
Well, this is Vertical panel, they are sharing it with Kodansha people (or that's what their twitter account said)
Well, if they announce new novels, it will be at this panel since there's no other panel for Vertical inc. -
This post is deleted! -
I hope you guys find a way to stream this, I would love to to see it.

Smh, I feel like I'll just get disappointed....I can't hear you, I'm already on the Classroom of the Elite / 86 / Chivalry of a Failed Knight hype train. Choo choo! =P
-
@terrence
86 will be licensed (next year if not this year)Dunno about the rest~
- I am meh about Rakudai Kishi anyways.
if it's out, I may buy it but I don't really care either way....

I won’t fall for the hype, games have been disappointing me lately. But too bad I’m hyped already for the new titles...
-
I gave up getting hyped too much when I got burned by some video game sequels + E3 conferences. Now I mostly just roll with the punches and try not to assume publishers I liked works from previously could do no wrong.
I still think it's better to be overly excited (setting yourself up for disappointment) than pessimistic, but I struggle to do the former these days.
The only thing that is almost guaranteed to make me upset are the seeming abandonment of licenses like Sound Euphonium and perhaps Mikagura School Suite (two more Mikagura manga are on the docket, but no novels in sight afaik). I'm not too hopeful about getting info on Euphonium's status. =[

For anyone going, here's what Aniplex has for sale:

Someone grab me a SAOA:GGO poster from Aniplex if you don't want.
Otherwise, Drama CD please Steiner!

@myskaros I always forget how crazy expensive some of the figures can be. Like 35-160$ is freaking crazy imo. The only time I bought something was Re creators sound track for like 40$. I’d probably get more stuff if it was less tbh. But hey if people are willing to pay 160$ that’s fine with me. Not my cup of tea I guess.
