Hi, I’m Jade and I’m an artist. You won’t hear much about cosplay, main events, or guests in this review – it’s all about business and my uncensored experience as an artist and panelist at MomoCon 2017. Two years ago, I participated in what I called “the best convention in the southeast”: MomoCon. It’s…
On Sunday, April 23, 2017 I was a guest artist at the Daytona Beach Comic Con hosted by Tom Raupp, a fellow vendor. It’s a one-day marketplace celebrating comic books and collectibles with a little cross over into pop-culture and Pokemon. I had done the show a few times and I always thought it was…
Don’t let the “2” at the end of the title mislead you into thinking that it’s a sequel. This is an anime based on the second installment of the Devil Survivor video game franchise. Since the first Devil Survivor had different characters, Atlus and Bridge made the distinction that this anime series was about the…
A few years ago, I was searching for the next Card Captor Sakura. CCS is my personal favorite anime series because of nostalgia. It wasn’t just one of the first anime I watched, it was the show my future husband shared with me that really sparked my love for anime. It was my first subtitled…
This week, I’m going old school with Excel Saga, the wacky, over-the-top-never-knows-when-to-quit action-adventure-parody series from J.C. Staff! Nothing is too sacred or safe from Excel Saga. The 26-episode comedy series parodies everything from popular anime titles of the 80’s and 90’s to Jaws. That’s right, Jaws. If you’re familiar with anime and pop culture from…
I’m still working my way through a ridiculously long backlog and I’ve fallen sick amidst doing tons of conventions and art over the past couple of months. Thankfully, there’s no better pick-me-up than Cromartie High School. Gorillas, a robot student, and Freddie Mercury in a school full of chipped-shoulder delinquents. Simply put, it’s about their…
Hi! I’m Jade and I draw stuff! I travel all over the southeastern United States selling my original graphic novel series, prints, and other art at conventions. I recently attended MomoCon in Atlanta, Georgia and am excited to share my artist experience with you. Please keep in mind that this review is from an artist’s…
One of the first roles of Tsundere-type cast Rie Kugumiya with brilliant animation for the time launched itself from Light Novel to Manga to a 3-season anime plus multiple OVAs and movies. Shakugan no Shana wasn’t anything especially new, but it was flashy, well written, well told, and exciting. Unfortunately, its releases were spread out,…
It’s popular, it’s edgy, it’s dark and brooding, and it’s been in your face for the past year. Whether it’s FUNimation‘s advertisements, semi-A-List English casting, A-List Japanese actors, and A-List musical acts or just the number of people dressed like a barista wearing an eye patch at conventions, you’ve seen traces of this series everywhere.…
Hi! I’m Jade and I draw stuff! – I travel all over the southeastern United States selling my original graphic novel series, prints, and other art at conventions. I recently attended The North Florida Comic Con in Mandarin, Florida and am excited to share my artist experience with you.
