Indeed. I was thinking of trying to finally make it out to Japan this year, but I doubt I'd make it before August, anyway. -sigh- /and derp: the Chiba event is only a day earlier, anyway.
But, it's only ten days between OTAKON and the web premiere. That can feel like a long time with current fansub release cycles, but it's still way better than feature film waits (ah, Disappearance...).
