[details=Sentai Filmworks Booth (#1301)]
Merch Booth]
This year we have a brand spanking new booth that’s sure to wow everyone who passes by, AND we will be selling Tshirts too!
We’ve got designs for
• Log Horizon
• Bodacious Space Pirates
• No Game No Life
• Akame ga Kill!

• …and more!
We will also have button sets available for both BSP and NGNL, so make sure to head to our booth (#1301) to pick up a shirt and button set, supplies are VERY limited!
Jessica Nigri Cosplay
Our good friend Jessica Nigri will be debuting two new cosplay at our booth this year (Booth #1301), and you’re invited to snap a free pic with her! Check out her schedule and make sure to mark it down on your own:
WHEN: Friday and Saturday
WHERE: Sentai Filmworks Booth #1301
Cosplay Schedule
Space Police Super Sonico - Friday 1PM - 4PM
No Game No Life’s Jibril - Saturday 1PM - 4PM[/details]
In a few weeks, it’ll be “Going to otakon? Come to our 4 card tables stuck end-to-end that we’re calling a booth and see our panel which might, maybe, if you’re lucky, be held but if it isn’t, we won’t tell anyone that it is canceled until well after the fact so have fun with that”
I don’t know what Otakon can do in order to get the industry guests to bring their A game, or even their “B game”, to otakon again but they need to do something as there are actual independent vendor booths that are far more impressive and expansive than the industry booths there.
So about 5pm EST we’ll have all or most of the Summer licensing details (probably except for Fate Kaleid, might have to wait until the simulcast is over, although they were able to announce Triage X during it’s simulcast)
Only thing I want besides them getting Monster Musume and the sequels (GC Insight, To Loveru Darkness 2nd, Fate / Kaleid, and Non Non Biyori Repeat) is a Chaika: Avenging Battle announcement.

No Avenging Battle Announcement, No Monster Musume Sigh

Ranger, you know that Sentai - clever devils that they are - never puts all their cards on the table. Give them time, I’m sure that if they have Monster Musume they will announce it and once the stars align for it we will get the second Chaika on the release schedule.
Mark Gosdin
They have to save some scraps to toss out to those who go to the 2nd largest anime con in the US. 
I’d rather see a date for Chaika I’s release than a confirmation of Chaika II.
I just don’t understand this. If the dub is done essentially 4 months before it releases then it had darn well better be perfect as they had the time to get it done right.
From what I’ve seen LOGH could really benefit from a dub.
As an interesting side note to this, BB is probably the Patton/Christian duo Chris tweeted about, as Rentarou was definitely voiced by Chris.
Plus, you have to remember that they just showed a preview, so it may not be complete yet. And don’t forget that a dub has to be done a few months in advance because they have to sync the audio and have time to get the test copies reviewed before it goes to replication.
