I may be there. My chances are more than 60% that I am going.
I'm so glad that it level up with the expansion of days and new location. Last year was fun
but still......
Yeah I feel ya; the co-chairs made the call and moved to the big hotel downtown. Too many problems with traffic [and the risk of someone getting runned over, which nearly happened by the way] and just not enough room for dealers and vendors.
Heck even this year we still had to share space with some other shows and the Indian Wedding. But if they are not around next year, maybe we can grab the Imperial ballroom as well.
LOL and the traffic was STILL bad!
75/85 north was blocked by police in every the exit BEFORE we had to get off. no one knew what was going on. we also tried to cross over a small bridge only to meet an officer who told us we couldn't even cross it. the thing is there was more officers and a black truck in the back lol. I think they were Riflemen. Honestly though... it was worth it. didn't like the fact that half of the stalls in the dealer room was owned by the same person with jacked up prices. i had saw a 14 inch PVC figure of Shinobu in a pink nurses uniform (from love hina) with the prices jacked up 70 usd then what i see here online.
I was glad the Video Game room was'nt filled with street fighter. wasn't surprised when i saw MvC 3 and i was really happy to see BlazBlue and SC5. We busted out Melty Blood on Friday night on the laptop and players flocked.
Kinda figured i was going to see this... but it was filled with 2 cosplays. Sailor Moon (glad its making a comeback) and Fukin Hetalia. i swear if i see another Germany being cosplayed by a 14 year old girl... i will scream. Hetalia has turned into the "Twilight of anime" thanks to the fan base. >:@
there were Many AMAZING blocks there! I really enjoyed the Touhou block and the rave was wicked. I was SOOOO pumped when i heard that MD Ashura came over.
Thats about it. my back is STILL stiff seeing that me and a buddy of mine had to sleep in the car in a Parking garage 2 blocks away... but we had a budget to start with so.... what can you do :P
