Check the character's official promotional art or memorable scenes and try to memorize 2-4 poses you can do standing up. Then rotate through them as needed.

>>9885044
>only thunderstorm on the sunday

Thank god

>>9885044
Canada units pls

>>9885177
Looks very different from the weather predictions I've been seeing. Sunny Friday, Saturday may have drizzles, Sunday rain.

Why is it that every year someone feels the need to camp out on the con grounds instead of buying a hotel? What would lead anyone to think it's a good idea, especially around teenagers who would happily take your belongings?

>>9885253
Those are canada units. Summer comes in powerfully and suddenly in Toronto.

>>9885384
Are you expecting weebs to be sane or rational?

So no Unpopular Opinions panel this year? That sucks.

>>9881450
Holy fuck please post pics.
Are you hot gril?

>>9885583
pls be in FALSE FLAG

DRUUUUUUUUUUUUMPFFFFFFFFFFFF

Explain how literally any of this is anime related

Ask the fans who said they'd be interested in attending and hosting those panels.

>>9885677
man am i the only one who wants to go to the DISABILITY AND MENTAL ILLNESS IN ANIME

panel?

>>9885677
>Yaoi and feminism
LOL
>Lesbian sex 101
How many dudes are going to attend that
>Toronto gaymers werewolf social
No comment the jokes just write themselves
>Toxicity in Fandom
So a recap of whatever latest Twitter drama but in anime convention panel form.
What the fuck is any of this. These were actually approved? I'm trying to find the common sense here

>>9885677
>Homo/transphobia in anime
>Disability and mental illness in anime
>POC cosplay
>Yaoi and feminism
I mean, these could be related. But it also depends on how the panelists spin things.

Wait, it's still not sold out?

Jesus, are they this low on good panel ideas?

I don't normally wear sweet, but Angelic Pretty is coming and I want to show my support. The weather seems like it's going to be nice for once.

>>9885796
>The weather seems like it's going to be nice for once.

>>9885759
AN is not as popular anymore

>>9885116
I should have worded my post better. My main concern isn't the actual poses, but whether I should be frozen in whatever pose I choose for the duration of the the group or pairing called. But thanks, I guess it seems like common sense to stay still but it just felt off to me.

>>9885677
The panel selection is way better this year than the last two years and you know it. It's almost impossible to find any con that's 100% anime.

>Steven Universe
Has a lot of anime influence and references, so depends how they do it.

>Homo/transphobia in anime
The word "anime" is even in there. Mind you, it'll probably be a shitty panel full of rich white girls whining about thing in anime which can be explained away by Japanese culture, which they have no understanding of, but it's still anime.

>Lesbian sex 101
If they explain the difference between anime or anime fanfiction and real life, then maybe. I stopped into this panel one year and it was about 10 minutes of some girl showing off all of her sex toys, and then 5 of her showing some dumb weeb how a Hitachi magic wand works, so you may have a point.

>Avatar the Last Airbender
Heavily inspired by anime, and strong anime influence.

>Disability and mental illness in anime
The word "anime" is right there.

>POC cosplay
Cosplay panels are a part of all nerd conventions no matter what kind.

>Yaoi and feminism
Like it or not, "yaoi" is a legit anime and manga genre. It's tied to Japanese feminism in its origins, so it works if they look at it from a Japanese perspective.

>Toxicity in Fandom
Depends how they spin it.

>Overwatch
>Dragon Age
>Borderlands
>Hearthstone
Vidya have always been a part of anime conventions, so why complain now?

>>9886021
>it just needs the word anime in the title then its alright
fucking non-anime apologist, get out of my con

>>9886056
Not every panel that's about anime needs to be about a specific anime.

Sounds more like you're angry about panels which may express viewpoints that you disagree with than you are about the lack of anime panels. I mean, there is some non-anime stuff on the schedule that no one's even talking about. Star Wars, anyone?

I don't even attend your con. It's shit. Since you're so unhappy about the content, why are you still going?

>>9885823
Yeah, I thought it was weird I could book a hotel room at the Weston and get two deluxe passes two weeks before the convention :/
That being said, I have two spots in my room that I need to fill now so I don't go broke.

So anyone down for some riichi mahjong?

>>9885842
The mass photo shoots are like herding cats, except there's two herds, cosplayers and photographers and the shepherds are also cats. So because it's impossible to keep everyone in sync you have to make the cosplayers freeze for a while and wait for the photo stragglers to finish talking a picture of the pose. Usually with 10 to 30 second countdowns.

>>9886021
>of her showing some dumb weeb how a Hitachi magic
Should have shown pink rotors, those are weeb

>>9886068
Let's be honest, these panels focus not on anime but for these hosts to shill their political platform. There's a time and place for everything. Do it at the Pride Parade (which is conveniently next month), not at the anime con.

Imagine the outrage if there was an Alt-Right in Anime panel, Fascism in Anime panel, Racial Separatism in Anime panel, and Traditional Wholesome Cisgender Gender Roles in Anime panel. In fact, you could argue these panels are very relevant since Japanese are a very proud sectarian people and anime often panders to nationalist otaku - racemixing is always AMWF, Japanese military supremacy is emphasized in many fantasy anime, etc.

Everyone has a political opinion, an anime con is not the place to share it. Adding "anime" to everything does not make it suitable for a con.

>>9886316
>shill their political platform
Shill it exclusively to people who already agree with and share their political views? This is truly an outrage and must be stopped.
Like it or not, social politics interact with the anime scene, so these panels belong. Do what I and about 99% of the attendees do and just ignore those panels.
Nevermind the fact that all of these panels are chosen based on fan response; none of these panels would be happening if the community didn't show interest in them in the first place. If you want your alt-right panels or if you want these panels removed from the con in future years, then I encourage you to get involved in the community and official AN forums to gather support for whatever actions you want to happen.

>>9886131
You can play with the obese weebs and Chinese grandmas that end up at AN.

>>9885677
Fucking gross. This con is such a cringefest anymore it’s almost even worth going to the tea party.

Isnt the tea party just having AP as a guest rather than it being an actual AP/Brand tea party btw? Tickets were way too cheap for it to be like an actual brand tea...

>>9886344
It’s always like that. Do you even go here??

>>9886346
Never done tea at AN until this year.

>>9886021
>rich white girls
sjw types are almost 95% poorfags living in shit apartments and spending beyond their means on trans fanart

>>9886383
This is awfully specific.

>>9886156
>The mass photo shoots are like herding cats, except there's two herds, cosplayers and photographers and the shepherds are also cats.
Heh, accurate.

>>9886344
You do know that this makes up a very small percentage of the actual schedule, right?

>>9886331
If you're just preaching to the choir, then what's the point of the panel? NAYRT, but my problem is that you are basically preaching to the choir. Anyone who comes in with dissenting opinions will be aggressively shot down and/or insulted, and people who don't know the topic or don't agree with it are probably going to do better things with their time.

I mean, making them connected to anime IS a step-up from the "Ask a Trans Person!"-type panels from previous years, but still...

>>9886156
>freeze for a while
>10 to 30 seconds

I used to be a life model, so that duration being 'a while' made me grin a bit

>>9885823
>AN is not as popular anymore

I have friends in dealers, and we've definitely noticed the dip.

I would hope that would be a wake up call to some heads of staff, but I doubt it.

How much do they usually charge for official merch to get the seiyuu autograph?

I want to get Megumi's signature and would print something out at the FedEx for $12 but they don't allow illegal merch.

>>9886371
Dont bother coming this year either then and embarassing us in front of the guests, we don't want you

>Got told some time ago that an artist I really like will be at AN this year
>2018 program book is out
>He's nowhere in it

What do I dooooo

>>9886910
Maybe he isn’t a guest? But is going? Usually artists say though if they plan on a con.

Bought a weekend pass when they were $50. I have no plans to really do anything there but I'll probably show up and chill. Can't really party because I don't have a hotel...

Can you leave your car overnight in the TCC lot?

>>9886910
What artist?

>>9886949
Ben Dunn

>>9886934
I can't find any specific rules regarding parking hours but I'm fairly certain overnight parking isn't allowed. Otherwise, instead of paying for hotel parking people would just dump their cars in the tcc lot the whole weekend

Is there anyone that needs a spot in a hotel room?
I have 2 spots open and I'm panicking.

>>9887109
I could use a spot for saturday night

>>9885677
A bud shilled me Anime North and we went there last year, the panel selection was dog shit and i spent most of my time just wandering about and playing vidyas

If you want to go to a con just for the panels, Otakuthon is a hundred time better since they actually bother letting people do more than political, sexual and disability shit. Hell, you even have celebrities holding panels where they show off and involve people on how they do their work instead of just doing simple q&as.

Are there any plans for a seagull meetup or is the bathroom thing actually happening? First time going to AN.

>Ita bag panel is scheduled right before the tea party
>Unofficial ita bag meetup scheduled to happen during the tea party

>>9887109
possibly. which hotel?

Hey, since no one posted anything yet and the schedule is out how about we tentatively schedule a meetup for Friday at 10pm and Saturday at 8:30pm?

There's the Back On concert that scheduled to start at 6pm on Saturday that followed up by the J Pop Dance Party, but I'm not expecting the Back On concert to run for more than a couple of hours.

>>9886643
There too deep in their shitty system. I think we’re going to see the con slowly sink.

>>9887180
>>9887221
We should start planning the meet desu. Is the pool hallway good? Or further down where all the empty tables usually are?

I made a poll so people can pick whatever times work, multiple options can be picked.
https://www.strawpoll.me/15737741

>>9887145
AN's panels are way better this year than last. What that anon posted is a very small number of them, less than 1%. Actually look at the schedule. They literally have two rooms Saturday with nothing but panels about specific anime.

AN is still shit for other reasons, but give credit where it's due.

>>9887118
>>9887206
Weston hotel down by the Marriott

>>9887324
do you have a discord or something?

anyone know how bad of a walk is it from the hotels on Caroga Dr to the convention centre?

>>9887355
distance isn't bad just be careful not to get mugged, especially at night.

>>9887351
ye
AlleywayJ4ck#5791

>>9887360
thanks, guess I'll just take an uber at night

>>9887355
>>9887360
>>9887376
Why take an Uber when you can get nekkomancer to walk you home and make you feel safe.

>>9885677
>Queer speed mixer
please explain

>>9887418
Gay speed dating/networking

>>9887195
They changed the time to noon, before the panel I think! I'm happy since I wanted to go meet other itabaggers, but also had a ticket to the tea party.

>>9887290
>AN is still shit for other reasons

w-what reasons?

>less than one week left
>still not sold out

What went wrong?

>>9887431
Rude staff on ego trips, the staff system not being a democracy because of abusive people like Eileen, awful shuttle bus service, dealers' room full of bootlegs with the same bootleg dealers returning yearly, crappy musical guests in comparison to Otakuthon, panel registration system being confusing for newbies and outdated (panels themselves are ok this year, though), fuck-ups with hotels happening almost every year and staff not communicating calmly with attendees about these issues and their concerns, poor communication from various departments towards attendees who ask questions, the official FB group and forum being moderated in such a way that any negative critisism of the con or its staff/volunteers is censored... do you want more?

>>9887420
Wouldn't really be an issue if there was a straight equivalent.

>>9887473

50 Shades of Anime Dating (18+) and Cosplay Dating sound comparable, plus I think there's some sort of 25+ mixer at the bar Friday night.

>>9887434
AN didn't sell out last year either

>>9887472
Please continue

>>9887472
Yes

>>9887422
Aw hell yes! Thank you for letting me know!

>>9887472
Please finish!

>>9887412
Let me start my own drama ffs.

Oh looks like I'm changing my plans once again this year

>>9886934
It's not allowed but I don't know if they just ticket you or tow you or what. I've never risked it because I'm always afraid of getting towed. Parking in one of the hotel parking lots is probably cheaper than a parking ticket.

>>9887930
So which hotel has the cheapest parking.

>>9887981
Just park at one of the restaurant parking lots, like Tim Hortons or the convenience store for overnight then change to the con parking lot in the morning.

>>9887993
doesn't the con end one night at 1 am and then reopens at 8 am?
Are they really going to have people patrolling the parking lot in between then, giving out tickets?

>>9888022
Prime time to make some ticket revenue

Does anywhere near AN have bag check? My hotel check out is at 12PM on sunday and I dont want to carry a suitcase around

>>9888152
Which hotel are you staying at?
I've stayed at the Crown Plaza and Sandman and both times they had a spare room where people could store their luggage on Sunday.

If anyone sees a big Dark Angels Deathwatch Marine stomping around, feel free to say hi. If my brain isn't totally destroyed by plastidip fumes by then I'll probably respond.

I haven't heard anything about it, does anybody know if Angelic Pretty is gonna have a booth?

>>9888230
Probably, since there was a poll asking what the comm wanted AP to bring to AN.

>>9888229
You going to be doing dark angels marine frid/sat/sun? I'll keep an eye out for you to get a pic

>>9887281
>https://www.strawpoll.me/15737741

9pm both days? Pool hallway?
Feel free to suggest other locations. Preferably somewhere easy access and relatively empty at night

>>9888322
Probably just Saturday, but I'll see how it goes.
Just short of 8ft tall so I'll be easy to spot. If not that, watch for the inevitable trail of sweat.

>>9888343
Pool hallway, or just a little down the hallway where the tables and chairs are is probably our best bet. It was easy enough to find everyone last year.

Anyone else doing Made in Abyss cosplay? wondering if there will be any other white whistles

Saw this cool ass mofucka last year, hope he's there again

Almost finished everything, I hope my contact lenses come in on time for Reg.


>>9888390
I'll be Reg on Saturday and if my friend ends up finishing his cosplay he'll be Srajo, which white whistle are you doing anon?

>>9888413
I'll be bonedaddy, someone else is doing Ozen and this other girl is going to be doing riko that i saw on the AN facebook page. Hope to see you at the photo shoot

;_; is there a AN FB rideshare group? I'm leaving from Montreal Friday afternoon and have to get back before mg Monday morning shift, rip

>>9888494
Not AN specifically but check Kijiji there's always quite a few rideshares on the weekend

Delta Hotel Bathrooms across from the pool area near where the hentai room usually is.

>>9888937
Anyone got the photos from previous years? I could use a good cringe.

>>9888940
I got better, I got video of past two years
I'll bring it to the meetup

>>9888937
What uh...what exactly goes on in there?

>>9888978
Asking for a friend

>>9888937
>hot boys
>>9888996
>cute boys

Well which is it that are wanted?

Hey, so I'm going to be working a booth with my friend for the weekend.
It's my first time at anime North and more or less my first time at any con.

Is there any highlights or specific events I should check out? Anything I should do as a first timer?

>>9889038
Both. Cute hot trap sloots only

>>9889050
What kind of booth are you helping with?

>>9889230
Merch booth. I think.
For doki doki literature club.

>>9887477
>50 Shades of Anime Dating (18+)
What?

>>9888969
WEBM NOW

Is it possible to transfer tea party tix?
Bad ass husbando surprised me with a small trip and tix to a real ap tea party

Anyone need a ride from Newmarket area? I'm planning to go Fri/Sat and maybe Sunday

>>9889463
Just do both. Seeing a brand twice will give you time to try to out to yourself

Saturday meetup 8:30pm in front of delta pool.

See you there.

>>9889674
let's fucking do it

Is there a meet planned for Friday yet or no? I probably can't do anything before 10pm though.

>>9889683
>>9889674
Meetup times were decided a while back
>>9888343

>>9889698
Thanks for this! 9pm Sat works great!

had a wig commissioned three months ago
updated me that it was finished last wednesday
"If you pay express shipping it should be there on time UwU"

still no wig
leaving thursday night

Does anyone know if weapons check is open on Thursday pre-reg, or is it only open on Friday?

Why is drinking and partying such a big thing at cons as if everyone was a normalfag? Pretty sure the Japanese they don't engage in this kind of degeneracy at Comiket, Reitaisai, etc.

I've gotta finish my costume tonight I'm so stressed omg

>booked a hotel room even though my house is a 20 min bus ride away from the con

how retarded am i? should i cancel? fairfield isn't even that much closer, and suddenly $400 for two nights doesn't seem so comfy

>>9889949
are you going to get drunk friday and saturday night?

>>9889980
i'll probably be drunk for the duration of the con. can't make new friends without some confidence juice

>>9889980
>>9889987

During the day, Boston pizza is so convenient

>>9889938
>as if everyone was a normalfag
>as if

>>9889463
brag more bitch

>>9889987
then keep the hotel

>>9886091
Hey, do you still have room for that hotel? I'm still looking.

>>9889938
Why dont you fucking go to Japan then faggot? Just from your post alone I can tell there is a stick so far up your ass people might mistake you for a scarecrow.

>>9889938
Because they drink and party on a regular basis after work, so there's no need to do so after conventions.

>>9888229
I'll make sure to hunt you down, I'll be wearing my tech-priest stuff that I wore to toronto comiccon

>>9889941
I feel you. I have until Friday afternoon but I can't dedicate all my time to finishing my costume so it's gonna look like shit again lol. Best of luck to you.

>>9889874
That is shitty anon

>>9889938
Becuase doing it with normal fags is boring and scary as you have to keep making sure to not say any dumb drunk shit about doujins. Where as if you get drunk with fellow weebs that's less of a fear.

>>9890014
Yeah I have a spot still available, would need to screen you before hand, you have discord?

>>9890151
yeah i do Feath#7757

wonder if I'd get kicked out if I tailgated some burgers in the back end of the lot

fuck $12 grilled cheeses

>>9889938
I don't drink really ever, so I always found it just to be a cool party weekend where people can let go and still be their weird selves and not curate how they look to others.

As well - try to feel comfortable not drinking if you don't want to, and just try to let loose and be comfortable if you can!

>>9890166
Fucking do it, sell them for less than the con and you'll make bank.
If they catch you just pretend you don't know what Chinese cartoons are

>>9890170
I mean It'd be for my friends and myself but I wouldn't be against "gifts" in exchange for a dog or burger

>>9890182
I'll keep that in mind if I'm in the back lot area

>>9890182
by gifts I meant cash

reread that and it sounded awful

>>9890197
naw, you're getting a wrapped gift with a bow on top now.

>>9890204
dick in the box?

>>9890166
>>9890170
Kinda makes me regret not doing Con-G congee when Con-G was still around

... Congee

>>9890210
Box in a box

>>9889938
>Japanese they don't engage in this kind of degeneracy at Comiket
They do. You just don't get invited because you're a filthy gaijin lol.

Con is tomorrow, who's freaking out?

>>9890356
stressed as fuck reporting in

this is the one time of year I leave my house and i'm determined to meet new people but also a socially anxious mess

> Sheraton just emailed to tell me microwaves now cost extra even though I called them last month and they confirmed they're free.

Welp, no cup noodles this con.

>>9890356
I kinda went into this zen mode and started working on little decorations like purity seals instead of rigging my full costume together. I might be fucked. I dunno.

>>9890417
What are you cosplaying as (if you are)? I'll say hello if I see you.

>>9889938
Nerds are allowed to let loose too. This provides us with an environment where we don't have to manage our image to appeal to outside forces.

>>9890417
I know your pain, anon.

This'll be my first time cosplaying too so I'm very nervous.

>>9890444
>Doesn't know how to make coffee maker ramen
or you could just bring an electric kettle

>>9890182
I'll give you a handjob for a hotdog. Seems fair.

Also, is the bathroom meetup an orgy or is it a more low-key drinking event?

>>9890627
a good handjob is severely underrated, but what if he's some big fat slob mess with dick cheese

>>9890637
Nitrile gloves and lube. I've already got both at home so it's not costing me anything if I bring them.

>>9890166
You might get told to pack it up but as long as you're not obviously trying to set up a stall and sell food without a license, I doubt they'd kick you out.
t. not an expert

It sounds a hell of a lot better than the guy a thread or two back wondering if he could get away with selling shwarma out of a uhaul.

>>9890647
>wondering if he could get away with selling shwarma out of a uhaul.

god damn crypto armenian lebos trying to jew a profit

no we just want to grill for ourselves really but wouldnt mind sharing with others while not being against charitable money gifts in return

>>9890627
but why, are handjobs that undervalued in today's society that a girl would freely give it up for a convenient snack?

>>9890653
>Implying I'm a girl
But yes, they are.

>>9890656
nigga just take the hotdog. I try not to judge but fucks sake have some decency

>>9886772
They might not sell merch at the autograph session per se. Just buy a tapestry in the dealer's room if you can find a non-bootleg. Mine was around 3000 yen.

>>9890658
>slutshaming in 2018
What if I want all the hotdogs anon?

In all seriousness, I'd actually just buy a fucking hotdog.

>>9890662
Now I want a goddamn hot dog

Finished my costume literally just now! About to uber to the con. So excited

jesus christ these panels get your shit together Toronto

>Gay Sex 101
first thing that came to mind is that south park scene with mr slave and the gerbil

>>9890662
I'm not shaming it's just not very appropriate to go from 0-100 in sexual matters, especially in exchange for food

If you were an actual prostitute or hobo I'd be down with that hell I'd suck a dick for a few bucks if I was desperate enough with no shame,but for a hotdog when you have the means is it really worth it?

>>9890682
>>9890662

I still have nothing against you friend and you're more than welcome to grab a dog if you find us

I'm a vegan and I'm so fucking stressed about being able to find food in the area. I know Harvey's has a good veg burger but it's usually so slammed with people. I'm Toronto local but if anyone happens to see anything in a restaurant that's vegan and sounds good would def appreciate the tip off

>>9890684
Maybe they just reallly love sucking dick kek. Anyways anything with an open heat source is kinda iffy.

>>9890687
Ubereats? Or hoard a few burgers somewhere you can go back to eat lol

>>9890166
Fucking good grilled cheese tho

>>9890687
there's a subway sandwiches nearby, do you know if they offer vegan options? I'm unsure what ingredients are in their bread to 100% say it's vegan

>Day before con and 2 pimples pop up
God damnit. Hopefully foundation fixs this.

Im getting into cosplay photography. Doing Free 30 min shoots. Just keep in mind I'm new my camera isnt the best but it is free.

>>9890725
I feel that so hard

Btw for anyone interested in a list of drinks to get/bring for the meetups, here's my recommendations:

Sweet Dessert Wine

^ these can be used for making cocktails or drunken straight as shots. Though I wouldn't drink more than a couple of shot glasses full, as they're quite sweet and strong. The orange and lemon liqour are better when diluted with some ice and soda water desu.

>>9890756
Damm some of those are expensive.

Is there a trick to telling if something is bootleg or not?

>>9890773
Is it being sold at anime north?
If yes, then there is a 99% chance that's it's a knock off

>>9890773
>Is there a trick to telling if something is bootleg or not
Try bfy[dot]tw/IIK0

>>9890725

Fuck same. Not excited for this wig I'm wearing for the first time either. Breakout city, here we come.

tfw you had to spend 45 bucks on body paint and sealant for your gfs oni zero two cosplay

>>9890787
Your gf has shit taste

>>9890788
t. ichicuck

>>9890790
No I don't like any of them. It's a shitty show. You fucking shitster

>>9890794
Nice shit opinion shithawk, you're just going all contrarian because you know 02 is going to be this years biggest female cosplay.

>>9890801
No I just don't like the show. Animation is shit. Writing is shit. Art is shit. Characters are shit.

>>9890805
Nice arguments you have there,very critical
also >triggers animation is shit
:thonkeng:

>>9890736
do you need a helper?

>>9890808
Dude honestly I'm pissed with Thier animation I was super hyped for the show then they gave us this garbage that is just trash pandering to trash weebs Half the time it's just still shots.

How's the food situation at AN? Where do people usually go for lunch/dinner?

>>9890756
Get Tokaji if you want a baller dessert wine.

>>9890839
McDicks

>>9890756
I'll be bringing some rum, hopefully Nekko has more than just tupperware containers to pour it in

>>9890872
Harverys LUL

>>9890839
Lunch: whatever the Japanese restaurant in the Delta is serving up in their hall setup

>>9890811
Not really thank you for the offer tho

Included characters of people i'm cosplaying with as well

Feel free to say hi (don't mind my autism)

>>9890900
I hope you're a bodybuilder

>>9890902
I've lifted weights a couple times ;)

>>9890900
please make love to me in ur all might cosplay

>>9890839
Usually go for all you can eat wings at St Louis. Also, you fuckers make me.feel.bad for waitresses with your horrible or inexistent tips

>>9890888
I've got some plastic shot glasses I could bring if I swing by

So hows the delta for breakfast? How much is my wallet going to bleed

There's a tim hourtons right by, isn't there?
Does it have normal prices or super inflated prices?

>>9890910
only if you cosplay as deku

>>9890930
is has hour wait lines

>>9890935
I should've known Canadian tim hourtons would be like that

Prep for tmr. Strawberry syrup made with sliced strawberries, balsamic vinegar, sugar, lemon and lime juice and zest. I'll use this to make cocktails.

I wanna party on Saturday but I need somewhere to crash so I don't have to drive home. ;(((

>>9890948
Get fucked

>>9890839
The Quesada there is super underrated and never seems to have much of any line despite having the best food for price: only downside is no indoor space so you have to eat somewhere outside. Always my go-to for Saturday lunch

>>9890948
You know >>9890949 might sound like he's insulting you, but getting fucked after partying is a viable way to have a bed to sleep in

>>9890951
Ok who wants to sex?

>>9890954
Nobody with you

>>9890929
I'd like to know this as well. Bf and I are debating if we want to drop the money if it means we're gonna be full of decent food vs. Tims shit.

>>9890954
Go to the rave.

What's the best way to day drink? Water bottle with mixed drink? I have a 26 of gin i plan on mixing with tonic to sip out of a plastic water bottle. Will security question my waterbottle?

how to ask for cute girl's discord without seeming like a creep?

I mean, I am one of course, but how do I trick them into thinking otherwise??

>>9890989
Security doesn't even check bags/purses, you're fine.

>>9890989
I did exactly that with vodka last year. Honestly, who would notice? Not like they rifle through your shit at the doors. ur good

What's the best way to get spray paint off your hands after last day cosplay grind. i think i'm getting stoned whenever i touch my face.

>>9890998
Paint thinner. Might as well get higher while you're at it.

Semi related, can anyone drop some makeup tutorials? I need to know what to do with my face this weekend

>>9891002
for girls or guys? or guys trying to look like girls?

>>9891000
Normally i wouldn't, but trips don't lie.

>>9891003
Girl still trying to look like a girl lol

>>9890486
Not the other anon, but I'll be looking for you. If you see an Elias Ainsworth who looks like his mask has been tumble dried, say hi.

>>9890989

You can usually mix into any soft drink bottle as long as you maintain the original color. I like my whisky and coke so I just drink 1/3 or so of a cola bottle and top it up with jack. It also helps if you take a shot of something before you head out to jumpstart your buzz, that way you can use your carry around to maintain your levels instead of wasting most of it just trying to get in the zone.
And I've never been stopped by con security even while drunk. They see a slightly stumbling person and they think they're legitimately handicapped. I guess the whole politically correct inclusivity thing worked out in my favor.

im trying to get to this super last night as my first ever con, how do i not die

>>9891027
*last minute
im already fucked

>>9891014
Will do. I imagine we'll both be pretty noticeable.

>>9890989
I'm thinking a small coke bottle mixed whiskey or fireball

>>9891017
Disabled anon here, I have been stopped a few times while sober which is funny. But If I'm drinking and have my cane out they leave me alone which is nice, I almost never get cut off

>>9890356
I'm still painting shit like a loser. Might just give up at this point.

>>9891201
good luck friendo, I'm making burger patties at 4 am

>>9890725
I'm glad I'm not the only one, even if this means other people are suffering the pre-con pimple curse too.
>mfw pimple is in the middle of my forehead

>>9891213
Currently rubbing moisturizer across my face, hope it goes away, if you see someone with badly done makeup it's probably me

>>9891235
I'm sticking a hydrocolloid bandage on it. Hopefully it'll go away by the time I get to the con, but if not, then opaque concealer it is.

>>9890938
That looks like kompot

I'm lookin for bussy to p̶o̶u̶n̶d̶ tenderly hug.

who here /notfromtoronto/ ?
On the train and I'm getting more hyped, just dreading the check in and badge pick up

>>9891436
/notfromcanada/

>>9891436
Frenchie here got an early start

>>9891436
Thought I could be cool and respond to your post then I remembered that Vaughan was part of the GTA.

>>9891235
It did not, it's gotten worse aaaaaaaaaaa

Is there such a thing as cooler pads like a chilling alternative to those heating pads you can wear inside your gloves?

>>9891255
I, too, slapped on a pimple patch and thankfully the bump is gone. Still bright red but at least that's easier to cover rip

>>9891458
do you have tea tree oil? you can use that as a spot treatment when you go to bed at night (i think it's light-sensitive so better to not use it during the day)

>>9891472
Holy shit I'm gonna die.

How do people in full armour or suit cosplay use the potty?

>>9891486
I don't think there is anything to be ashamed about using diapers. Just dispose of them properly and don't get so drunk that you think wearing an extra diaper from your pack on your head is a good idea.

>>9891486
What, you don't have a colostomy bag?

>>9891486
Pick a clean stall and get real naked :^)

How much money should I bring to the con? Are there ATMs on site that don't have $20+ withdrawal fees?

>>9891495
the atms usually have fuk hueg lines

Can someone reupload the back entrance map ? <3

>>9891486
I just do my bidniz before I suit up, and consider desuiting when finally too hot, or too desperate to use the toilet.

>>9891489
This is my fetish
>tfw changing armoured cutie soggies

>>9891475
No, I should look into that. I thought 7 months of accutane would mean I don't have to deal with this shit. I'll stop derailing this thread

Someone mentioned an ita bag meetup Sunday. Is that info from a facebook group or something? I can't find anything on it...

What time should I go pick up my badge? I don't want to wait in a huge line for doors to open

I wonder how few Monogatari people will be here this year.

>>9891472
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SCTSCAQzY9k

>>9891553
the meetup was moved to tomorrow (Saturday) at noon

Fuggg. Anyone in the Delta able to access the HDMI ports on the TV?

>>9891607
why would you put this in the middle of the fashion show D:

Any anons staying in the crowne?

>huge /m/an
>can't make it to An this year. Oh well I don't go to too many panels anyway.
> buddy mentions me about them having a bunch of gundam /gunpla panels
> I check, there's like a dozen this year.

Fuck me.

Are thighhighs mandatory for the bathroom meetup? I forgot mine...

>>9891559

I was shinobu last year and only saw 1 other character from the series there

First year I'm not actually attending this con.
I work at a pretty nearby hotel though so I'll be seeing loads of you fucks anyway.
Saturday I'm bringing weed, so at least I'll have fun strolling by the con, since work ends at like midnight.

>>9891653
feels bad dude. I was surprised to see the gunpla last year so I'm glad theres a lot more Gundam stuff this year

How acceptable is it for a lolita to have a "con bag"
I have my coord matching bag but ofc it barely holds anything at all.
How bad would it be if i wore one of those taobao angel wing backpacks? Colours matching of course. (Thematically not though...)
I'm running out of options lol

Anyone know where I can get a Hakama here in toronto on really fucking short notice?

I'm one to the con now, how bad us the preregistration line?

I'm omw*

>>9890627
It's a drinking event I'll be throwing out some free drinks but recommend byob

F

>>9891553
>ita bag

>>9888937
If I am a straight white male will I become gay if I were to come to this meetup or is this a meme?

Security already told me to put beer away while walking through the loby so idk how they will feel about our meet up.

>>9891804
You're already gay for having to ask.

>>9891834
security can eat my entire asshole

Is pool hall meet up in the delta? I havent been around here before

meetup or kino panel?

Reminder Meetup at 9:00 at across the delta poll

>>9891922

>>9891905

We moved to bar at the delta in the back come hang out

>/fit/ meetup
>no bike machine
orz

>>9892005

There's a /fit/ meetup? Are girls allowed if they have noticeable gains?

>>9892044
Girls are allowed so long as they have viginas.

>>9892050
but how are you supposed to jerk them off if they don't have a dick

This is a strange question but where are the most comfy washrooms? I have a condition that makes me poop a lot.

Room 1243 ya fucks.

>>9892080
Im already drunk fuck u

What is happening right now, is there a Telegram group or something I can get added to

>>9892080
What hotel?

>>9892094
Delta obviously. Don't party at any other

>>9890801
I'm honestly surprised I didn't see more today. I guess people already had plans.

I don't normally look into degeneracy, do they sell stuff like onas anywhere?

Stupid question, but how do the photoshoots work (for photographers)? Do I need to register for something in particular? Am I too late?

>>9892119
You mean the big group meetups? Nah, just show up to whatever you want nothing special needed

>>9892106

how many qt grils are in the delta

>>9891486

has anyone actually seen someone using a diaper at a con?

>>9892128
0, unless you like boipussy

>>9892149
That's fine, Im a total faggot lol.

>>9892149
1/3rd grills right now

is there a hoard of trolls this year or has the fandom truly died?

>>9892155

how late are you guys going

We partying outside delta right now. In the parking lot lul.

>>9892171
Just a small group of us chilling right now

What's the secret handshake?

>>9892218
Bending over and opening wide

>>9892165
Purplegrey girl bled on me in nominomichi, didn't take a good look so she could have been something else.

There is too many noodles for breakfast.

How often does the shuttle stop by the Sheraton?

>>9892399
Looks delicious I'm jelly.

I'm alone for most of the day, can I tag along with anyone? I'm going to the league photoshoot and some panels maybe but idk I've never been alone before (my friends are at a tourney all day)

Soo....I walked by Nekko yesterday and ugh the glances he gave me were awful. Girl from the previous threads! I was trying to meet up with my other girlfriends and hes just such a creep

Hoverhand game is on point this year

>>9892467
>tfw nekko doesn't give me awful creepy glances

>>9892544
Yeah apparently looking at people is a crime now.

Im here alone what do i do?

>>9891660
Oh god I hope so.

god the cheapest deal i could get was the hilton. 40 minute walk i was sweating balls. thank god there are places nearby that serve beer. glad to be alone this year and not with my shitty ex who flirted with everyone and made me sit through yaoi voltron photoshoots

Where are the nut sluts?

>>9892609

>>9892848
On the center lawn I think

What’s everyone up to?

So I just went to Anime North on a whim. Haven't been in years.

Didn't you used to have to pay to get into the vendor room? I just walked in without paying, nobody even tried to approach me. I just picked up some nice figures.

>>9892933
They are supposed to check tags but they are pretty meh about it

>>9892918
The Chise to my Elias just through her nose so I had to ditch the photoshoot. Just running drunk first aid.

Can’t wait till bathroom party,

Bathroom party at 11 or midnight?

Where were you when shawarma was being sold out the back of a truck?

Always at midnight

Any fun meeting going on right now

>>9892933
It's been an absolute disaster this year for any of the guests, performers, and any non-attendee goer.
Worse lack of communication and miscommunications then usual

>>9893118
Name the place, name the time. I'm a bottle of sake in and willing to dice with death.

12 bathroom by the paras room (where all the tables are)

How long do the buses run here? Airbnb down kipling and idk if ill be able to transfer or not later..

>>9885044
Guys, who needs the Bathroom Meetup if we can all go to Nekko’s bathroom?

Any non gay shit going down tonight? Friends and i looking to drink and party with cool peeps.

Setting up for bathroom party now if anyone can bring some cups that'd be rad

Which bathroom?

>>9893155
Probably not. Uber or Lyft is a good option tho

>>9893172
I'm just getting a beer at the bar in the delta.
No idea where this bathroom is.
The area by the pool has no bathrooms but a good hallway.
One person said it's near paras. Whatever that is

>>9893181
gay sex with hats on time?

>>9892958
We're at the Marriott if you want it tomorrow

>>9893172
Come watch anime and drink in the parking lot

where everyone at

>>9893253
At the cool party

Who's around tomorrow? Had to peace out early today, but you lot seem cool

Where the cosplay orgies at

>>9893257
Not at the party where Voldie's fat ass is

Is there still a bathroom party? Where? Which bathroom?

Fine I guess I WON'T go to the bathroom party

>>9893268
The only cute boys allowed bathroom

12 sharp it be happening
Head to the bathrooms

Well I'll be around all day tomorrow, today was fun.
Don't know if anyone else is sticking around tomorrow night, but I have a good bit of weed I need to finish, and can't bring back.

>>9893282
Is it happening?

>>9893292
It's always happening

This is from the twins, might come back, bringing the two theta back to the hotel. They are scared!

We will be back in 10

It's happening

>actually got some succ at the bathroom meetup
Good time lads, looking forward to next year

I saw a bunch of you fags at Jack Astor's tonight. Are there any after parties I can crash? You

>>9893345
Delta 1243

>>9893348
Who’s there

I saw the aftermath of the bathroom you guys are animals

>see some fags walking around in cosplay
>look it up
>apparently I live 20 mins away from an anime event

Is there still time to party with you fags? I can't drink yet because I'm 18 but I can still turn up.

>>9893265
where?

>>9893362
As of being 18 stopped anyone from drinking ever

>>9893373
Going to a nice uni next year, don't wanna fuck it up desu senpai

Youmus boyfriend is hot af

>>9893446
Youmu is hot af
tfw no qt cosplay hookups this year either

>>9893504
Hah, faggot

>>9893505

>>9892467
I didn't see meme-tan at AN

What is there to do Sunday? I'm surprised I'm alive after last night. Anyone perform/garner any S U C C O U R?

Thanks for a good time, I was the soju/sake guy.

I honestly don't remember leaving the party, I hope I didn't hurt anyone

On my way over nowish, anything good going on?

I dunno any of you guys but I'm headed down for the Kemono Friends panel in a bit if you want to hang out

Well this was unexpected

>>9893659
>Jesus is God alone

Non-trinitarian heresies? In Current Year? It's more likely than you think.

"When you watch anime, you're inviting a demon into your spirit. That's why you're an emo. That's why you're a homosexual."

>finally meet like minded people for once but drank too much to have any sort of coherent conversation

I LOVE this meme

Any of you jerks still around?

>>9893701
Chilling at the protestors, best panel 2018

I had way more fun at this con than I expected. /cgl/ is not at all a representation of the con as I expected it to be a bunch of SJWs, fags, attention whores, ironic weebs, and borderline-normalfags who are just there to drink, party, and have sex.
But there was a surprising amount of niche content to look at, some rare stuff for resale from previous Comikets, and some panels and guests were an absolute blast. It was really easy to avoid the normalfaggotry. I will for sure be coming back next year.

Shame these threads mostly talks about meetups/drinking/sex and /a/ doesn't allow con talk and nobody cares about AN on /jp/.

Who here Anime North Idol?

>>9893704
Which ones are you? I wasn't at the party

Can't find you bathroom boys, we're getting some kickn fried chicken atthe Swiss chalet.

>>9893718
Fuck me this location isn't doing the promotion

>>9893718
You guys still there? I'm chilling outside, dressed like an autist

>>9893735
>dressed like an autist
literally anyone

>>9893777
No, unironically

I moved on anyway

>>9893659
How so? They're there almost every year.

Sitting somewhere waiting to go home and i can already feel the post con depression slowly rolling in

So I guess there was no competition between who had the better of the cgl parties this year?

Bathroom party was wild, definitely worth the $120+ of booze. Thanks for coming out everyone

Waluigi squad'll be back next year

>>9893857
Please don't come back

>>9893842

Same. I didn't even like the con that much this year and I'm already missing it.

>>9893857
Loved you guys. Had a blast. I'm gonna have some webms of the party soon

>>9893851
My party sucked, stop posting vodka.

>>9893713
Idol North needs to be a thing desu.

>>9893542
Implying I would bring my precious memetan to such a group of degens, she is too pure for that.

Idol North 2019 battle for nekos love feat. Meme-tan and MomoKun.

So what's with anime north being such fascists about table helpers?

shit was that freddie mercury looking dude /cgl/? he said he was a cemetery grounds keeper and I was trying to hook him up with a mortician work

>>9894006
Yeah he's /cgl/, but he's also just a chemical engineer. Tell me more about this mortician work?

Anyone can recommend otakuthon? AN was my first con ever and I want more now.

>>9894018
Go to Otakuthon! Its better!
