At the beginning of April, I attended the Minnesota anime convention, Anime Detour. Easily the most interesting panel I had the chance to attend was an hour panel on DVD Production, hosted by Chris Ayres and Clarine Harp of FUNimation. I didn't get a chance to talk to either afterward sadly (maybe next year!), but the panel itself gave me plenty to think about. A lot of what they spoke about was the process of bringing anime to American DVD, but they also went into discussion on the increasing importance of the internet as a way get anime in front of audiences over here.
