I like our vague descriptions of what we were doing/what we were wearing xD
Are you going to cosplay this time around?

Well there were only like 3 shinsengumi cosplayers so it wouldn't be too hard to point me out. I'm not cosplaying at the anifest. I found the experience too uncomfortable(it was my first time cosplaying). And I'm not ready to walk around the streets in costume yet. Only among the safety of other otaku, can I proudly walk in cosplay. Maybe I'll cosplay at another con in the future.

Saturday events start at 11 AM, so I figure we should meet up like 9:30 around campus and then head up as a group.
Also there was an e-mail I received about a pre-party at Dave and Buster's that Thursday with raffles and anime fun stuff. I'm sold, anyone else in?

Screenings and panels start at 11am but the doors open at 10am. During that first hour you can walk around the dealer room, and believe me, you're gonna want as much time as you can to browse around. I'd say 9am would be a fine time to leave. People will likely be late anyway.

I forgot to tell you guys, for anyone that's going to anifest, I recommend you sign up for this lottery to see AKB48 perform on sunday. Even if your not interested in them yourself, I wanna see it, so enter to give me more chances to win the lottery. You have to enter by monday to be eligible. Even if you don't have the ticket yet, you can still enter since it doesn't ask for verification of whether you bought the ticket already. I assume you'll just need the anifest ticket to enter the building. So ENTER THE LOTTERY!!!

I'm thinking about going, I've never been to a con despite my otaku friends trying to drag to to Otakon and Eirtakon (Ireland or something). Groups make me feel much more comfortable, though, so I might tag along... Last day to get tickets is saturday, eh?

I really wanna go, especially since I've never been to a con before and have been dying to see the experience up close and personal. But, while I have money to go, I have a very limited amount of it. If I paid for this con, that would mean not having enough for another. And the one I want to go to more than anything is the New York Comic-Con, which I think happens in February. I know it's a long way away, but money's tight and it's hard to find a job to fit my unusual hours. So, I think I have to pass.

I don't know if you'll consider this good or bad news but the next New York Comic con isn't until October 2010.

Do I want to go to the Ani-Con or do I wanna eat this week? ^^;; Money's tighter than I thought, but I might be able to scrap something together.

Let me ask this before I forget and it's too late. Is there anyone here in the forums that would like to go to the New York Anime Festival as a group but can't make it to the first club meeting this coming thursday? Because I'm going to need to get names and how many people intend to go. I was planning to get the names at the meeting but just in case some of you can't make it to the first meeting.

Oh yeah, as for where we're meeting up, I'll wait to find out where most of you and anyone else that wants to go, lives. Let me ask, would you guys prefer meeting at kimmel or forbidden planet? Either one's fine really.

;U I'm fine with either location, maybe Kimmel cause it's a.) on campus, b.) it's an easy place to meet up/find people?
