Been ghosting this con for years and it feels good to finally not go regardless of peer pressure from friends. For those of you who still somehow enjoy ohayo, have fun

>What's your cosplay lineup?
im finishing up my diavolo, and i will wear it whatever day the jojo photoshoot is. im not sure which of my other costumes i will wear other than that. maybe spike spiegel so i can get a photo with beau billingslea
>What guests are you wanting to see?
i'm not usually super stoked on guests at cons, but i will definitely go to as many of the guest panels as I can. Shin Kurokawa, Tetsuro Shimaguchi, the Nabeshin panel was funny last year.
>What events are you planning to go to?
masquerade/cosplay expo
probably check out the electronic dances
maybe the 21+ mixer (although last year the line was absurd)
>What hotel are you staying at?
Hyatt :^)
>When are we meeting up?
i'll be down all weekend! if you see me as diavolo or spike, please say hi!

>>10052666
people watching is one of my favorite things to do at conventions, and ohayocon usually has some of the highest attendance numbers in the eastern US.

as long as I can dress up and be surrounded by weebs, I can have a great time.

[Anonymous No.10062825]

I only go to Columbus cons when my friends decide to go (lonely and expensive to go alone and I tend to get stalkers), and I've finally gotten confirmation so I guess I'm going. Told them that if I take care of driving that they need to take care of booking a hotel but it looks like they haven't yet. Didn't want to take care of everything when I'm just a third wheel with a car but I just might. How boned are we for a hotel? There are plenty in Columbus right?

Not sure whether to wear this coordinate for the lolita photoshoot Friday or for Lolita Crush Saturday. Still deciding my other coords. Might even buy that Sheglit x Maetel real clothing cosplay on LM since I have long blonde hair but I'd have to figure out how to attach a fur edge to the bottom without damaging it. Lovely clothing set and it being a lazy winter cosplay for years would be great.

Hype for meetup though, I'll wear my cgl pins.

[Anonymous No.10062935]

>>10062921
The headdress has lots of detachable parts for dressing up/down and the brooch/rosette thing on the dress is also detachable so I'm going to play around with what looks best on my head. This isn't a shade of blue that's easily findable though, not gothic blue, navy, or sax, it's both blue velvet and a slightly peacock blue on the skirt. It's why I'm considering the TF tights, they have little blue butterflies.

Depends on how social you are/can be. I've only gone to one con alone & it turned out to be incredible. However, I'm extroverted - to a fault, really. If you can mix in with a group of like-minded people, you'll have a great time. If you're alright with just taking in the sights, sounds & panels alone, you'll be good. But if you have FOMO or social anxiety at all, Ohayocon alone is probably not the best thing. But it's always worth a shot!

Maybe around 4-5 Saturday would be good...? Looks like it's mostly photoshoots and autographs, is after all the lolita stuff and before the larger events and dinner time. At least it's a good time frame for me, maybe the photoshoots are more important than I'm thinking. Getting my autographs Sunday and I'm not cosplaying so I'm biased.

Really? There seemed like a lot more pointless people were up there other than the regular guys.

I understand adding Peach to the rotation after Mario's intro Saturday, but the other two were worthless and brought nothing more to the show.

One just shouted random shit like he had tourettes while dancing like a fuckboi and breaking shit, and the other character just sat there glaring at everyone. Didn't speak, barely moved. They both really brought down the panel I think.

YouTube Poop used to be my favorite panel. But it was ruined by fagboi and RBF being there.

Like always though, great videos

[Anonymous No.10080306]

Yeah I dunno a bunch of them started drinking too hard and I think they were trying to get people pumped but it was annoying.
And the extra people are some of our friends that wanted to be part of it but that didn't turn out great.

No need to make it the last one, YouTube is always a great time. The power hour is the only panel I was able to drink and have a good time at. Hell, I didn't even know drinks were allowed in the rooms, I'm going to utilize that at my next panel.

Again, the extras kind of ruined it. But if it was a one-time thing for DK and RBF [I seriously don't even know what character she[he?] was trying to cosplay] than I don't see it being as annoying in the future.

>>10080307
I'm not a panelist for YouTube Poop, but I was a panelists with another group. All I can say about drama is fucking staff coming in during my panel to turn our mics down because we were disturbing some fucking Cosplay Creation challenge or some dumb shit like that.

We weren't even being loud, we were hosting a q and a panel.

[Anonymous No.10080324]

TA was invited they just couldn't make it because they already booked Ichiban.
Don't drag a con if you don't know shit about what you're talking about.

Which game was the good one?

The only one he sat down and played I’m sure.

TA went with Ichi because everyone knows Donnell pays better money. How many years has Ohayo tried and failed at securing TA?

I'll wait...

That's a good point. Ichibancon didnt announce their 2019 dates until March 2018, a good three month after Ohayocon announced theirs.

Sounds like plenty of time to book TA if they really wanted them. But also, as we've all seen, that jew Alan that runs Ohayo is a tightwad

Ohayo doesn't get TA because Alan fucked them over in the past. Anthony is still friends with the rest of the staff but they won't be ever bringing their games there.

So in other words, Snow Phoenix gets the sloppy seconds that TA doesn't want anymore, lol

Now to their credit, of course they aren't as big and cool as TA, but anyone saying they run a mediocre game room is spoiled as fuck. They have a majority of the most popular games, all in well kept condition. If Taiko, the rarest of games, breaks your trust for them, then go to a TA event.

I’d take one taiko over 5+ cheap jubeats. I commend SPX for what they do but man when every other convention I’ve ever been to has a taiko it sucks. Plus everything was just too close together and the lights were on which kind of kills the mood. And the guy who runs it is kinda cocky and annoying but I think all people in this elusive business are to be fair.

Looking online Tokyo Attack appears to have 3 taikos and 3 maimais and 3 chunithms and 2 white ace cabs and still like 10 jubeats. Pretty sure they could do Ichibancon and Ohayocon and still do a better setup than Snow Phoenix did at only one con
