OH CANADA where are you s48 members?

There's this place i recall in Ottawa called The Anime Shop maybe the clerk can give you some kind of deal on Japanese Cds if you ask, although probably not, when i went to AN last Sat the dealers room had all kinds of merchandise, but hardly anyone was selling CD's.

 

Yeah true, I literally spent the whole day looking for AKB stuff in the dealers room, couldn't find anything even related though

I think the only AKB related thing I found was a guy wearing a shirt with AKB48 and some other kanji on it
I wanted to go talk to him but I lost him in the crowd

 

I found a place called The Anime Stop... i'll visit it soon


Btw i agree with your signature.... Asuka is indeed the pretiest

 

TWO WEEKS BEFORE I LEAVE FOR OTTAWA!!! I'm excited (well, not excited about the 12 hour 1/2 hours on an airplane), yet so busy I haven't been able to think clearly about my suitcase (and my 3 kids').

Sorry, I just wanted to share my excitement and sort of revive this thread!

 

Nice, I hope you enjoy your visit! I think you'll be on time for the curds festival in St-Albert... lots of poutine to be eaten!

 

Whaaaaaaaaaaat!!!??!!!??? Did they start making cheese again in St-Albert after the fire?? (yes, I read my canadian news, and was shocked that I wouldn't be able to eat my beloved "crottes de fromage" this year). Awesome!! But I don't like poutine... but I'll have my kids taste it, yes!!

 

They own an other factory somewhere in quebec, so they started producing curds and all sort of cheese with the St-Albert recipe... it almost the same... but to the connoissoir, you can taste the light difference

They're still available in every store in the region... same price... but less are produced so the shelves are less packed...

 

Canadian here, and coincidently an Anime North-goer as well...even if this is a little late, haha.
Glad to see a few pages on this thread, at least, and some fellow Canadian fans!

 

Well, I'm back from my 1-month trip to Canada and I have to say it was absolutely wonderful!!! I didn't realize how much I missed my country of birth, perhaps because it had been 5 years? I didn't really follow AKB48 while I was away from Japan... except for Tomochin. I missed both Cluv Tomo and her Tokyo Dome graduation (I was on a plane both times) but I managed to catch her last theater performance on TV last night. Phew!!!

Note: I ate lots of St. Albert Cheese curds and it was weird to go to the "new" Chinatown... even weirder to see that my favourite anime store of 13 years ago is still there (Global Homeware, on Somerset).

 

Hey if some of you are in the Ottawa region, there is some people trying to organize a yakou night on October 26th

Not sure if the link is going to work....

Hello Akko,

Welcome to the forums! Not much going on... :/ but hopefully it'll get more active!

you should, Alberta is pretty neat despite what people say about it (boring flat cattle land). i want to explore every province, even the supposedly boring ones like sask and manitoba.

say, i will probably read through this thread after i post this and figure out the answer to my question before anyone replies, but is there anyone else on here from AB? it seems to be the same few people posting in here and you're all from Ontario and stuff. i would really love to go to Ottawa, partly because that's where MONKEY MAJIK is from so i can feel some kind of pride going there for that reason lol, but also because it's a lot smaller than Toronto and you guys have that festival thing where you go skating down that canal and do stuff.

 

Im just gonna make a quick post here to know if theres still canadians around and let know that Im here!

 

Just signed up today, am from Toronto.

 

Hey,what's up neighbour!

 

On the Go Train listening to akb48. Thinking about who will win the janken tournament.

Anyone from Quebec?
