Tekkoshocon 2005 will be held on April 8, 9 and 10 at the Pittsburgh Expomart and Radisson Hotel Pittsburgh. We hope to see you there.

A real convention center this year with lots of parking and many food places nearby. The Pittsburgh Comicon has been here for many years. Right off the Turnpike (marked Pittsburgh on the list), so getting here is easy and the hotel rates are not bad.

Two questions:
-is there a site for this con?
-would it be difficult to get to from Philly without a car?

Well Tekkoshocon is going to again right off the Turnpike (Pittsburgh exit). Bus, Train, or Plane are all possible. I don't think hiking across the state would be wise ;)

BTW somebody I know for the most part did....

My dad used to do that all the time when he was in college o.O

Yea, I'm not from the area, but I'm moving to Philly in September for college.

Shadow Star Narutaru from CPM is a premiere at Tekkoshocon:

From the Screenwriter of Serial Experiments Lain and the Animation Director of Nadia: Secret of Blue Water

Based on the hit manga!

First impressions can be misleading! Shiina nearly died when the current swept her out to sea. Instead, she was rescued by a mysterious star-shaped creature and plunged into a strange adventure! Her new friend Hoshimaru leads her into a maelstrom of alien attacks and to a secret society of psychic children. Is Shiina destined to become one of them? And is her new pet truly a friend, or a threat to all humanity?
