I've been sitting on this one a while, and the recent passing of Akira Toriyama reminded me that it needs to go live. It's another in the V-Jump video series; this time a document of the 1996 V-Jump Fest live event, in which the magazine showcased a bunch of upcoming releases from a very exciting time in history. Early looks at Final Fantasy VII! Resident Evil 2! Battle Angel Alita! And a lengthy Chrono Trigger anime!

A good number of us have tape trading stories, no matter MST3K, pro wrestling, etc. Obtaining the fabled Chrono Trigger "anime" (and all this other stuff I guess) from an online friend is my version of this.
