Conventions!!

[Icelilly]

There's only ONE anime convention in Ottawa and that's AC Cubed. Toronto gets all the anime conventions. >_< AC Cubed is usually only for two to three days in November in a hotel lobby and costs about 60 CDN dollars to get in. I only went once because last year my parents wouldn't let me go. I hoping that this year, they'll let me go.

If you ever go to Sakura con, let me know, we will hang out

I went this year and it was a blast.. still need to post pictures from it

[SleepyD]

haha, you'll have to give me a few years. ^^;
My independence is being held hostage by family and finances. ehehe...

I want to see the pics! I'll be sure to post pics of AX07 then (with mah brand new camera. w00t!) X3

[Gummster]

There are actually no conventions here, officially. There are some times that members of anime.is have one, well it's actually more of a get-together of otakus, it could be called a con.

i'm going to go to a convention on saturday and sunday! Woot! haven't cosplayed though maybe sometime soon..

[CaptBrenden]

I went as a video game character.. tho techincly an american game -_- but oh well, it was fun to have people run clear across the large rooms screaming "wait!  Cpl Shepard wait! I have to have your photo!!!"

those who knew who i was anyways, thats what it means to be a obscure character.. most dont know who you are, but those that do are really geeked to see you.  

Most people just called me counterstrike guy

[SleepyD]

haha, note to self: scream the names of obscure characters across the large halls to take their pictures at AX. XD;

[CaptBrenden]

I was only there for half a day.. and at least 300 people I dont know have my picture

thankgod a gas mask was part of my costume

Counterstrike cosplay? By the name of the empress, WHAT HAS SCIENCE DONE!!?!?

[CaptBrenden]

No no no, Halflife Op For, but close enough.  there was a quake 3 person there too, I couldnt remember his name, but they took alot of photos of the two of us.

lol, me too. I went to my first convention last year. Planning to go to one of the biggest anime cons in Mexico this year: La Mole.

No cosplay for me. NEVER.

[CaptBrenden]

[SleepyD]

haha, alrighty captain, we'll wait for em.

ahh just finished day of the 2 day event!!
i'm sooo tired

cosplay was pretty nice though! lots of transformers cosplay some even transforms!! i think there was about 9 not sure and even TWO GOBOTS!!! (leader one and cykill). IMHO i thing its good that nobody used the new transformers design from the movie.

Shocking to say but there was only one Haruhi Cosplayer ONE, i give her a lot of credit thou because she did create a big fuss, wearing a bunny suit and all.

and the 165th cosplayer (the last) was a Wikipe-tan! first cosplay i've seen here that is in anyway related to the os-tan. too bad i didn't get a picture.

very lively event i must say and i'm waiting for group cosplay competition tomorrow cuz there's a cosplay group here that rocks the convention hall, they've choreographed some pretty fast and awesome fights while wearing Hunter X hunter and streetfighter-snk character cosplays. they even use wrestling maneuvers such as hurricaranas and  stuff.

I go to cons when I get the chance. Last time I saw man rei and man chii they were both really fat
