Title: Slightly Anime dating game???
Post by: Tcbyogurt on October 08, 2016, 09:32:47 pm
 Not sure if this is the right board...

Does anyone know if Slightly Anime is returning anymore? That's pretty much the best panel I've experienced every year since attending Kcon in 2009, but they were absent in 2014 and 2015. Anime Hunters did well stepping in last year but will they ever come back?

They stopped Sakuracon too a while back...

My con experience as well as my friends experiences have been disappointing these couple of years. We miss them! They're so sooo much fun!

Anyone else miss them?

I've had good times watching them, and I'd be interested to see if they make a return, too.

I heard rumors and got a general idea from talking to them briefly back in 2014, that there was a lot of things going on in their lives and that they aren't able to go to as many cons as before.

I think I'd heard something similar, though I couldn't put it into words when I posted earlier (blame it on midnight).

I see. Thank you for sharing that. I do hope all is well for them!

We really do miss them and hope for their return when they are able to. Sending positive thoughts their way~~~

They are also my favorite panel at con.  :) I think I first saw them in '07 and made effort to attend their panel each year. Their absence was definitely notable these last two kcons.

All the best to the Slight Anime crew.

Very happy to see the Anime Hunters are keeping the dating game alive! I was strongly hoping it wouldn't end just yet :)
