“People will probably wonder that the connection is between BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger and Mana Energy Potion,” said Gail Salamanca, director of marketing, Aksys Games. “Well, the Mana Energy Potion is blue and the name of the game is BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger, so yeah, I think that pretty much covers it.”
“Seriously, Gail? I come up with this awesome PR quote for you and that’s all you got?”
“Well, all I know is that after seeing the booth girls you were rocking at New York Comic-con, I was like, ‘these guys know how to party… we have to work with these guys somehow.’ So, yeah blue Mana Potion and BlazBlue was good enough for me.”
“So, you just thought we were cool dudes?”
“In a nutshell, yes…”
“Now that you mention it, we are pretty cool, huh? Okay, I’ll buy that.”

About Harcos
Based in Santa Monica, Calif., Harcos was founded by two gamer geeks who discovered a niche at the intersection where gaming and consumer products merge with the launch of their first vitamin/energy beverage, Mana Energy Potion. Each magical bottle of Mana Energy Potion <http://www.manapotions.com/buy.html> looks like it’s straight out of a video game and is filled with a bright blue liquid that adds +160 to mana, packs a powerful dose of vitamins and delivers up to eight hours of smooth energy without sugar or an after crash. The company’s follow up, Health Energy Potion <http://www.manapotions.com/buy.html>, possesses a mellow apple-cinnamon flavor and is jam-packed with natural herbs, such as elderberry and ginseng, and the vitamins biotin and folic acid, while providing the same 5-8 hours of smooth, powerful energy with no sugar or after crash.

Huh, I guess there was a reason you guys were right next to them during NYCC…
Either, blue drank ftw!
@ThePretender: yeah now that i think about it u guys during the nycc were pretty tight. I also remember the mana potions samples they had their which i had to say it wasnt all that great
I just remember getting beaten in BlazBlue by the Chinatown Fair Arcade pros, talking to the Aksys Games staff, the awesome BlazBlue & Guilty Gear give-aways… and my 10 hour workday everyday for that weekend, hahah…
Btw, is Aksys Games or ArcSys going to be at Anime Expo (with Mori and Ishiwatari)?
now publish a game called “RazRed” so we get the red health potion along with it
@bloodkaine: Yes, we will be at AX with Mori and Daisuke. See this post… http://www.aksysgames.com/2009/04/13/anime-expo-x-daisuke-ishiwatari-x-toshimichi-mori/
@bloodkaine: You weren’t the only one. At one point during the BB tourney, Gail reminded me that “The point of the game is to inflict damage on the opponent.”
So being I already preordered Blazblue before this was released. I can’t really go back to Game Crazy and request a Mana energy potion, eh?
So, if I drink Mana I will look beautiful just like that?
Yes.
You should have got a promotion deal with X-rated or Patron so we could truly get our drink on.
^^^agreed.
^^seconded.
Of course you could always DIY it…
seriously, the name BlazBlue is just begging to be put to a drink! I once had a delicious blue drink. It burned on the way down. See? PERFECT!
I wish they still made Pepsi Jazz…
@C.Roika: Fully intend to get my drink on when I get my copy of BB on release day. ^____^
@kanedags: I have a somewhat off topic question regarding both Mori and Daisuke..Just wondering if either of them had worked on Hokuto no ken and/or Sengoku Basara X? The reason I ask is because I have a few Atomiswave carts I would like to get signed at AX.
