bamboo broadcast #1
May 26th, 2011, by in News, Translation
MangaGamer had a live Q&A session on Ustream, hosted by OVERDRIVE’s president bamboo. Over 190 people watched the stream with about 50 people choosing to join the Ustream chat. There were three volunteer translators for the event, trying to handle the deluge of questions from the viewers. The stream itself was focused on bamboo wearing a hat, with a poster of one of the characters from OVERDRIVE’s upcoming game Dengeki Stryker in the background. The topics at the Q&A were all over the place — it was a very casual atmosphere. The questions covered things like possible licenses, sales, and hard copies, but also covered bamboo’s personal tastes in things like games, alcohol, and even women. Inside are some of the questions from the event.
