I went to Otakon by myself this year and felt lost as hell ;___;

You should give it another shot this year! I'm definitely there so you've got somebody!

Hmm good point!

 

[amishpriest99]

Hmm good point!

Conventions always kinda suck if you go to them alone. Haven't tried that since Anime USA in like 2006. Always better with friends.

 

[Chet Rippo]

[Chet Rippo]

That and she's made of plastic, that shit doesn't go away.

 

[MikeHattsu]

is Otakon as big as Comiket? (complete con newbie)

Doesn't Comiket have some kind of insane level of visitors? Like over half a million people?

I think I'll at least be buried with my Ui figures . Can't wait for future archeologists to try to figure that out.

Not even close in sheer volume, but it is crowded for the space that it occupies.

well yeah, I just don't even know the scale of Otakon...it just gets thrown around a ton so I thought it must be just as huge

Hopefully by the time I die, it's feasible to have my remains rocketed into space.

Not sure how well to put it...it's the biggest convention I've been to, draws over 30,000 for the weekend. The Baltimore Convention Center is fairly large...takes up at least a couple city blocks, and even more now with the Hilton that's attached.

[spyhunterzero]

Long nights?

Who wouldn't want that?

Because I don't want no aliens messing with my dead body.

 

[Chet Rippo]

Why would you want that???

So I can spread the teachings of K-ON! beyond the solar system.

[Josephl64]

Driving test isn't really hard, I got it on my first try...just make sure you can parallel park, and pretend nobody is by your side. That's pretty much it

 

[Chet Rippo]

You can't just leave it with that.

 

[Princess Viola]
