I run a couple anime con panels. I also appreciate Japanese chili (and IRL anime food) on the side.

I recently standardized my anime food panel names so they’re now “Eat the Anime: $theme”.

I didn’t have to ask them, but I appreciate @tsukinocon.com updating 2025 Shows’ name (previously “2025 in Anime…Food?!”) after they heard about that standardization through my public-facing schedule.

What I think is the unseen chocolate mint kebab/döner Sylvia Sherwood ordered from the kebab guy in Spy x Family.

Chocolate shavings, mint flavoured shaved cream, an Nutella inside an Eierkuchen

Our two options are/were:
1. Doing one shared order to save on shipping (especially back when pre-CR Right Stuf had shipping for orders over $250).
2. Waiting till Otakon to stock up on titles we really want.
Discotek does not get nearly enough criticism for licensing home video titles for Canada and then not actually making those home video releases available here.
Friends, #weebwednesday is upon us once again! You know the drill - quote-post with your weebiest hot takes, nothing racist, nothing intentionally inflammatory, have fun with it ♥

I did not expect a MHA spoiler from *checks notes* someone’s LinkedIn post about their friends becoming managers.

I also saw an at-con volunteer holding a Mina (🍉) plushie and wearing a keffiyeh on their shoulder.

Massive props to them for doing this in an attendee-facing role, but I hope they aren’t dinged by the higher-ups 😭

Starting my Day 2 at Fan Expo; I haven’t been to Chatime for so long that I forgot that roasted milk tea != the pearl milk tea.

I am now a card carrying Fan Expo Fandom Pro badge holder (…and someone who tried MunChi’s Fleischsalat).

Round 2 of the donuts, specifically the tire donuts from Mario Kart World for the Switch 2.

Remade the Kowloon Generic Romance lemon chicken with chicken thighs, while also thrice frying the chicken and microwaving the lemon that we’d juice for the sauce. This take was juicier than the breasts, but tasted a bit burned and had a stronger lemon taste.

Made the Salmon Meunière from Zelda: BOTW and what I think are the croquettes from Spy x Family S3.

I wouldn’t recommend goat butter with fish; the butter‘s gaminess amplifies the salmon‘s fishiness.

My mom and I finally found the Spy x Family UNO cards at a McDonalds.

(She’s taking that deck, as I already show my love for the show by cooking + documenting its dishes!)

Reading about how Sakura-Con handled idol performance panels: I am surprised that they don’t have a way to handle applications for over-represented panel topics, which does involve *checking notes* adding quotas and up-front rejections.

Haven’t gotten on my Hot Chocolate Festival game beyond Aiyaohno Cafe till now, but here are their two hot chocs that I had over the past two weeks!
• Chiikawa MoguMogu Matcha was OK; I can hardly taste the sweet potato 🥲
• Keeping Warm Under the Kotatsu is like drinking a chocolate orange Lindor!

This Fan Expo Van closing logo slide is for Eat the Video Game: Nintendo, a Retro Gaming Eats - Nintendo extension where the scope includes _all_ consoles.

Half of the dishes are from Retro Gaming Eats, but the other half is new stuff (such as the BOTW Salmon Meuniere as mentioned in the desc)

We buckled up this evening for some Irish Chinese food!

Tsukino-Con released the schedules last Sunday (thanks for the heads-up @keichoro.bsky.social).

I'm still chatting with Programming about what clips I can/can't show with Hunger Games vs. Battle Royale now being a 16+ (previously 18+) panel, but will get my schedule out once that's dealt with!

Invited my family and @zerogouki.bsky.social for dinner yesterday, where I tried to replicate Damian Demond‘s Beef Wellington meal from Spy x Family S3
January 27, 2026 at 4:05 AM
@themerce3.bsky.social clued me into Gourmet Warehouse, where I did some cooking panel research and picked up this jar of juniper berries for Rotkohl!

I’m at nwHacks where Jeff from Boba Talks (Seattle-based recruiter) brought some Trader Joes snacks across the border. It’s not my first time having them in general, but the French Onion popcorn and the ghost pepper chips are 🔥

Woot woot; Fan Expo Van panel offer came through yesterday! I'll let the schedules do the talking for the exact panel I submitted, but here's the panel's closing logo slide for now ;)
