We Had a Great Time At Fanime!

Shortly after the success of anime expo 2007, we were approached with an imminent
suggestion by one of our loyal customers, JE. Unbeknownst to us, we had no idea
a whole order world of anime action existed in California with a volume that
could finally rival Anime Expo. (Drum Roll Please)....FanimeCon!

With signup due dates approaching, I fidgeted around, grabbed my papers, printed
out the appropriate forms, took four to five gulps of water, answered a couple
of phone calls, looked at a couple of emails, checked the FanimeCon forums for
past vendors, and bam! Just like that, our application was faxed in.

Actually, this is only our second convention, the first being Anime Expo (thank
you for all of you guys that made it possible for us). But now that we've had
a small breadth of experience, our prior difficulties were significantly reduced,
which allowed us to give full attention to our customers to the best of our
ability.

Thank you all for making it a great show for us and we hope to see you all
next year! We will be at Anime Expo 2008 this year from July 3rd - July 6th,
don't forget! Mark your calendars!











Front Mission 2089: Border of Madness - New Import - In Stock

Front Mission 2089: Border of Madness is a dramatic strategy game. It sets stage in an imaginary island called Halfman on the Atlantic Ocean. Because of a great war that occurred nineteen years ago, the island was split into two, with one side belonging to O.C.U and the other side to U.S.N. Although things remained somewhat peaceful since the last great war, small skirmishes happen again and again. Soon these little conflicts gave a rise to a rumor about the possibilities of another large scale war between O.C.U and U.S.N.

As if to proof this rumor true, both of the superpowers are enlisting people to join the armies and for patrol duties on the island, the superpowers are employing mercenary forces. But before the mercenaries can prove their worth, they started disappearing mysteriously, nobody knows whether they are simply deserting or if they are killed.

Be sure to pay attention to his briefings as he tells you the type of missions you are to complete, location of the battle, the number of enemies and extra tasks like defeating your enemies under a certain time frame to earn bonus points.
