– We are proud to announce the news that Ancanar will be at Ring*Con 2002 this November.

– As many of our fans know, a special teaser trailer will be released online within weeks, but an extended version of that trailer will be screened at the convention. In addition, Ring*Con attendees will be treated to a presentation of scenes from the film, clips that will not be seen anywhere else.

– There is also a possibility of a Q&A discussion session with the directors and cast members, but that will be confirmed as the convention moves closer.
