24 Hour Podcasting Marathon, Anime Fans Give Back to Japan
PostPosted: Tue Mar 15, 2011 6:30 am
Though this has to do with last week's tragic events in Japan, I thought it deserved its own thread. Of course, for those who want to donate this is yet another way to help, but this should also be interesting for anyone interested in hearing the thoughts of dub voice actors on current events.

ABOUT ANIME FANS GIVE BACK TO JAPAN - Anime Fans Give Back to Japan was started by The One Piece Podcast and a conglomeration of many other podcasts including Konoha Corner, the SSAA Podcast, and That Anime Show in an effort to bring together the anime community to help victims of the earthquakes and tsunami in Japan. We have posted a video that we hope will spread awareness for this event: (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GKE7T71s7Bg).
