*****ANIME CITY 7 - EXTREME!!*****

Hello Everyone,

Well, now that the Official Playlist for AC7 has been released everyone can rest easy, plan their day and look forward to a very fun time with their friends at Anime City. With the blowout sale planned for the Mall (brand new DVDs costing as little as TT$50??!!), the Yu-Gi-Oh Showdown and the Cosplay - not to mention a full SEVEN screens - how can you not??!!! We have pulled out all the stops to ensure that this is THE BEST Anime City ever. And there's a very good reason for that ...

As we have hinted before, this may be the VERY LAST Anime City to be produced by Genesis in Trinidad. The organisation of these very exhaustive shows is so intensive, so time-consuming, so all-encompassing in its coordination, it has been taking a toll on the volunteers who make up the Genesis Foundation. We thank them all for their fine contributions and are working just as hard to lighten their load in future projects. But we must listen to their pleas.

In addition, our foreign commitments (as well as other charity projects) have been taking up quite a bit of our time and resources. While we receive wonderful help from US & Japanese animation studios, most of the expenses for Anime City events still fall squarely on our shoulders - and with many, many new undertakings each month, we just have to prioritize - and Anime City may be a casualty of this restructuring.

We know most of you look forward to the shows and will be angry with us for even thinking about implementing this decision but we feel strong enough about this to throw out the idea for debate amongst everyone on this list. Maybe one suggestion might be to scale back the enormity of the show, but this will only allow fewer people to enjoy the wonders of Anime City. There are a few other ideas which we have kicked about but each one seems to limit the mass involvement of fans that has become the trademark of Anime City shows.

So, how can we forestall this show from being the FINAL ANIME CITY - please send us your opinions on the matter.

Anime City continues to break new ground and sell out each and every show in record time but we still always need to hear from our REAL bosses - the fans who make up our audience and who have always taken the time to share their thoughts on how we can make Anime City better.

Please continue to send us your suggestions, opinions, criticisms, whatever on the future of Anime City.

God willing, maybe we can work together to keep the legend alive.

Thanks for your time.

Hafeez Amin

Unfortunately, I don't think there's anything that we, or even they, can do about it. From what I've heard, Anime city practically exhausts the resources of the Genesis Foundation, and because of numerous commitments that must be honoured, as well as the fact that hosting an Anime City just tires the whole staff out, this may be very well the last Anime City. :cry1:
Anyway, that's just me, I could be wrong, but that's the way I've heard it.
It's really a shame that it had to end after such a long ride, but what can I say....that's the way life is sometimes, I guess.

that's just really sad
I hope that some corporations will start sponsorship and save anime city !!!
I can't imagine that this year would be the last.........

de_spider_an_de_wolf · « **Reply #11 on:** November 23, 2003, 12:16:23 AM »

why not organise some fudraising events prior to anime city in order to compensate for the expenses for it like a raffle or sumtin... the money from the raffle can go to anime city an de money fom AC can go toward literacy

Waggy · « **Reply #12 on:** November 26, 2003, 08:37:29 PM »

Heh.
The Haffster says that everytime he holds one.
But this time it sounds serious tho.

*yawns* Oh well, hard luck then there. Not like I didn't like the previous AC's but it seems Haf needs to do a lil more resarch and implemntation of what an anime con is SUPPOSED to be like. I Know they havent had much local sponsorship and things have been hard, but prob as they cut it down we just MIGHT get a lil less AC's but better quality ones ent? Or at least let's just hope so...

PyroSlasher · « **Reply #14 on:** November 27, 2003, 09:59:40 AM »

I doubt that could ever be the last AC.It had quite alot of ppl there and we really enjoyed it.The lime was real mad.Nah man Haf,yuh cyah do dis to we.

So true. When a few of us went to the last one in that school, we had to entertain ourselves. So much that we got kicked out.
Quality over quantity, try having an annual one instead of 2-3 a year.

But if they make it only once a year it go hadda be real good,
also i sure if they could get more volunteers it would be easier on them also
