here a glipse for Saturday February 25th:

ROBOTECH: THE SHADOW CHRONICLES PANEL

1:00 PM – 2:30 PM

At the end of the original Robotech series Scott Bernard begins the search for Admiral Rick Hunter and prepares for a rendezvous with destiny. For 20 years Robotech fans have wondered what happened next. Now this is your chance to be the first to see the latest Robotech: The Shadow Chronicles, with brand new footage and a special look at how an animated program is created!

MARI IIJIMA MINI-CONCERT

2:30 PM - 3:00 PM

Anime fans know Mari Iijima as the voice of Lynn Minmay from Macross, but Mari is also an accomplished singer with scores of Top 10 hits in her native Japan. She'll be headlining Saturday night's Anime Exodus at the Knitting Factory, but you can get a preview of what's in store at this special free mini concert on the public viewing stage in the main lobby of the Javtis Convention Center.

ADV MACROSS PANEL

4:00 PM - 5:30 PM

MACROSS is an all-time classic anime series and a building block for the Robotech saga, which is widely credited with bringing anime to a mass audience in the west. ADV Films is bringing out the original Macross series to DVD with a first-ever English dub, and now you can join ADR Director Matt Greenfield and singer/voice actress Mari Iijima as they screen an episode of the remastered series and answer your questions.

Don't forget the Mari concert at the Knitting Factory later that night:

ANIME EXODUS, brought to you by the New York Comic-Con, debuts Saturday night at the world-famous Knitting Factory, and we've got one heck of a lineup. Voice actor and DJ extraordinaire GREG AYRES (Chrono Crusade, Saiyuki) will be spinning all night well into morning. And headlining the show is MARI IIJIMA, J-pop sensation and voice of Lynn Minmay, who will perform an extended set of her original music plus a few favorites from Macross just around midnight. Whether you want to dance all night or just enjoy a drink in the company of your fellow fans and anime guests, join the Exodus down at the Knitting Factory for an evening you won't forget!

I'm definitely planning on attending the panels and concert(s) this weekend, proudly wearing my Macross World '03 shirt. Anyone else here planning on going?
