American Manga Awards Matt Alt Frederik L. Schodt Kodansha Books .American Manga Awards host Matt Alt told a great story about calling Studio Proteus, and talking with Toren Smith about getting a job with them. Smith replied, ‘why should we hire you when we have Frederik L. Schodt?’ “I didnt have any answer other than ‘you’re right.’” 😸
When Hiroko Yoda and I came up with the idea for “Yokai Attack” in 2008, the topic was so obscure that there was concern about including “yokai” in the title. 15 years on, this interest & excitement just blows us away. Thanks for making it happen — organizers & attendees both!
