/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

>locan con invites some cosplayer I never heard of
>didn't pay attention to that, so I can't say much
>however, they also brought in this local youtuber that I never heard of - he's lucky I don't remember his name
>the attendees didn't give a shit about him
>he sings some anime OPs that got dubbed in spanish
>and for the climactic parts, he tries to get the crowd to yell those parts for a cool effect, this is a thing singers do and it comes off awesome when the crowd goes along
>but the crowd here didn't give a flying shit
>so every time he wanted us to scream the cool part of a song, people barely did and it was so sad

>eventually he gave up
>also he did some cringy humor changing the lyrics of songs to fit some lame jokes in spanish

This is why I don't pay attention to local youtubers. I will say this, I don't think he's some kind of fake fan. At least he came off as someone who grew up on similar cartoons and anime that I did. But the guy just can't connect with a live crowd. It's different from being comfy behind a camera and editing software.

What about "free hugs" signs?
I hear some events banned them for different reasons
