Industry News: Otakon 2016 Announcements Round-up

While I was away this past weekend the Otakon convention was happening. And a ton of new information went out for a lot of companies. While Anime Expo had huge news, Otakon was fairly strong especially with Discotek Media. Like I've done with the forum post on Anime UK News I'll be going through the announcements in a quick fashion.

Rather late on this one (apologies for that). Otakon recently happened and it's one of the biggest anime conventions primarily due to the industry announcements. While most of them were copy & paste from Anime Expo a couple of weeks ago, there's also some new additions added to the mix.
