Arigatoo Gozaimashita!
The presentation by Marcus, choices of Sake and service of the Maid Squad were very well done and appreciated by everyone. I had a chance to chat with him and I am hoping to have him come and do a similar presentation at Sakura-con.
Thank you for posting the Sake list and thanks also to the Kumoricon programming staff for hosting this event.
Cheers,
Kato Shiroi
PR Manager Sakura-con

This was a great event! It is nice to have things for the old folk to enjoy at these conventions. Though my favorite part was watching a white faced Emporer of Cats turn Red ::)

Thanks for posting the list! I know I wasn't going to remember anything.
Could you post a link to the Facebook page too, please? I tried doing an FB search, but I couldn't find the group he mentioned :-(.

Excellent!
Oh, btw, if anyone has trouble with the link, just right click > copy link location and paste it in to your web browsers URL line and then remove the extra //http it inserts in the link. It works fine when you do that.
Mina, Kampaii!
