Alright bitches, one of the most meh of summer cons is next month. What are your cosplay plans? Are you traveling from out of state to attend? Is there anything in particular you’re looking forward to? Are you an oldfag that is absolutely jaded by this convention but use it as an excuse to do molly and drink nonstop with total strangers for 4 days? Let’s discuss!

>> No.10142116

Got my badge and my time off approved! Not traveling out of state, this will be my 4th time. I heard they fixed the lines so after 3 years off I'll see how it goes. Going to be one of the 1,000 Links there.

Looking forward to some gatherings, most of the panels on the forums seem kinda meh, but maybe something will pique my interest. I do wish they hadn't moved the ball from the Fairmont Hotel. It was beautiful there. The hall next to that museum is ugly and still overcrowded. Also not sure if I should crossplay at the ball. Prince style or poofy ball gown? Hard to choose...

How is everyone else feeling about this Fanime?

>> No.10142802

>>10142116
I’m pretty excited, not necessarily for the con itself, but because I’ll be spending my 4 days off with my partner, doing weeb shit. I’m hoping to attend the ball but seeing as it’s not really my partner’s thing, I’ll probably be going by myself. I’m also looking forward to the j-fashion show.

>> No.10142844

>>10142802
Yeah the con is alright, but there's lots of stuff to check out which makes it fun for me. It's nice you get to go with your partner, I've gone solo the past 2 times. The ball is one of my highlights, but man sometimes you get some awkward dance partners. One guy was just reeeeeeally sweaty. I always miss the j-fashion show, maybe I'll actually make it for once!

Extra holiday pay is good at least. I was on a year probation awhile back. It sucked, missed pretty much all the events that year. Still hope you have a good time!

>oldfag that is absolutely jaded by this convention

I thought I was the only one.

But seriously, I've been going since '05 and this year is probably the last year that I'm going for a full weekend. It's been interesting to see how the con has changed over the years (and how normie-passive it's become), but the novelty has definitely worn off. I'm sure I'm going to enjoy myself nonetheless, but to nowhere near the same degree I once did.

>> No.10143399

>>10143389
I’ve been going on and off since 2005, and I think this will also be my last year going for the full weekend. It’s the only con I’ve gone to and I realize that I need to branch out and try out other ones. Fanime will always have a special place in my heart.

>> No.10152059

It's gonna be my 12th year. I'm excited for CWF, and a little miffed the panel my roommates and I put on got waitlisted but it's whatever. I hope the game room has some good stuff this year and lots of table space for board games/card games. Last year it felt like they really downsized that stuff.

>>10151976
Lots of good places to eat 1-3 blocks from the con center, plus street dog vendors right outside at all hours. If you don't mind paying 10-20 per meal at those places and a wait you'll be fine. There is also a safeway about 2 blocks from the con center so you don't have to worry about packing a bunch of groceries in the car before getting there.

>> No.10152088

>>10151976
I’m a vegetarian so I can only comment on the meatless options but my god does downtown SJ have the hookup when it comes to food. The restaurants are pretty decently priced overall, and like >>10152059

>>10152598
Depends? What did you like about AX? It seems more industry, but has lots of exclusive merch. That seems to be the main reason many people go. (And concerts)
Fanime is more chill, like a hang out con. They finally fixed the line problem for badge pickup, but the lines for panels are still long. It's also hot last weekend of May, but there's plenty of shade and a nice nearby parks. There are lots of good restaurants nearby as well.
The con is kind of spread out at nearby hotels, the con center itself, and its connecting hotels. So there is some walking, but not too bad. Shuttle lines can be long. The meetups for different shows/games are awesome and always fun for me. The masquerade is meh and I usually skip. But that's just me.
Idk about the guests much, they seem okay. There's dances and a ball, gaming, panels of course, and tons of awesome cosplay.
I do hope you have fun!

No prob! If AX's numbers are true, fanime is like a third? of the size. Some spots are of course crowded, but everyone is spread out enough that you aren't suffocated the whole con.

>> No.10153220

Definitely looking forward to the convention, but I'm for sure at the jaded oldfag state. Fanime has always been a sort of reunion since I've lived away from most of my long time friends for the past decade, but I live close to all those people now so it's a bit less special seeing them. I know it will still be a great weekend but it'll be hard to feel that magic I once felt. That said it's my 10th fanime so I'm hoping I can get something real special out of it.

Food situation is good overall. Thanks to the nearby college, there are many chain restaurants, snack places, bars, coffee shops, and a Safeway within walking distance. You might want to check out the trendy "food court" type places, of which there are two. One is called San Pedro Square, the other is called SoFA Market (don't remember what that stands for). It will be crowded, but you can count on getting good food.

But it's nice to know there's others around my age. Feels weird when you're surrounded by kids half your age at various cons/events. Makes me just want to cosplay in my backyard where only my weird old neighbor will judge me.

Lonelita has always been the way to go for me. But I'm not much of a people person anyway. I get bored sometimes at events, don't dress lolita at cons cause I'm cosplaying, and almost never see any in the wild. The few I have seen outside tend to actually be in their 20's or older. At events everyone seems pretty young.

I'm 22 but have been attending cons for nearly a decade now and have been cosplaying for just as long. Ngl even though I'm the average con-goer age, I feel super old and jaded because I watched as the cos comm went from fans who painstakingly crafted their costumes to a fight for internet fame. I don't fit in with the Instagram cosplayer crowd that most people who are my age are a part of and yet I'm too young to really fit in with the true oldfag crowd. It's a weird position to be in.

Hey anon sorry you're going to miss the fashion show, but this year there is also a "trunk show" at 5pm in the Atherton room of the fairmont. They're going to be vending most of the participating brands in the show so you'll probably get to see most of the looks on the rack.

first of all i dont think a young girl can or will get raped by a much older man, i think it only happens when he or a she forces themselves on another without consent or she says no, a young girl may give consent to an older guy she finds attractive.

rape can happen no matter the age of the two, a girl can get raped from a guy her same age or he is younger, or by a girl.

so if a young girl likes a much older guy and he is respectful and she gives consent then its not rape, but can be very beautiful :)

I did martial arts for a few weeks when I was five and there’s this ancient saying in kung fu “the early bird takes the worm” so I snuck up on her and threw a right punch. It landed right on her nose. And just as she fell out of her wheelchair I kicked her right in the stomach. I ran away before staff came so I don’t know if she’s dead or not.

Half the questions were predetermined. The other half were your usual tripe, but the the opening fan question was of some autist asking about the trans character in Catherine. When that happened, half the audience cringed, the other half was dead silent. Then the autist was asked to change his question, so he just asked stupid shit about Persona. He was asked to repeat himself because he was spilling spaghetti, so he then asked an entirely different Persona question. What a tone fucking setter.

This was the best fanime I ever had. Thank you for coming, I really appreciate all the kindness I saw and all the good memories shared

best fanime so far. con security asked me to leave last night.

At cons i believe its really easy for girls to get laid by any guy she wants (usually in general) but the social stigma against women pursuing sex is still prevalent today kept alive by incels, trolls and people who want to keep women down, aka rats of the old ways.

That and men who play girls into sex but who dont value women, nor treat them right and well and even dangerous men.

To combat this i suggest that men interested in sex wear a sign thst indicates their desire for sex, a subtle Accessory, like jelly bracelets (its color coded lol ) or spades as it looks like a dick going up a butt lol

And girls wear a mask or something that covers the eyes as that makes it hard to identify them ( and they can argue that they didnt know, its just part of costume

The guys hang out at a usual spot at the same time every year (like the entrance at 5:30 pm, entrance) and the girls look for guys with those signs of sexual interest, and say or ask random things like i love that thing you have or bought. Or where is this? And that way you can get to know him a little first

Its up to the girl to keep things going because if the guy is making the moves he may be mistaken of a girls interest or a white knight may come to break it up

Sex is a fun, beautiful, empowering thing that if done with the right person will make you happy, feel loved and even heal a broken heart, give you confidence

Spread love not hate :)

(Personally i choose jelly bracelets lol if you even see me, i would love to meet you, you really cant go wrong with me, unless you are mean lol)

Women are people, buddy. They'll happily proposition guys they actually like. No system of secret codes is gonna make random women fuck you. Talk to them like human beings and make friends. Sex isn't the most important thing in the world.

Wow you are pretty pathetic to imply that based on your twisted perception on reality, desperate to make others believe that.

I do have sex, even when there are no conventions and this year i made some new female friends,

You dont give a fuck, you dont see them as human beings otherwise you would empathize with them

You are a fucking joke, and your fuckboy incel life makes me laugh

The last time I remember even seeing BA was day 4 of AX16. They were giving away expensive merch like figs and BD's to participants though. I don't want to think that doing so was kind of a sendoff but it's already been so long since the last BA. I miss BA so much too

i honestly still can't put my finger on what it is about fanime that has changed it in a lot of people's eyes (myself included) over the past 3-4 years. could be me being an oldfag, could be something about the con itself. who knows?

>>10181380
>failing the hand check

sounds like a meme. someone probably kept sticking their phone up despite the thousands of warnings from signs and staff to not do that. they kicked everyone out of the h-room and shut the whole damn thing down for a night 2 years ago for that very reason. i didn't see who did it, but the crowd was shouting the dude down while everyone was marching out

Is it fair to say that Fanime is mainstream now? I don't mean in the convention circuit, necessarily; I mean as far as people in The Bay are concerned, people who aren't weebs are actually somewhat informed about what it is and what people do there, almost to the point where they want to check it out themselves. I took an Uber to/from lunch on Saturday and my driver brought up the idea that it reminded her of Exotic Erotic Ball (of all things.) If Fanime is indeed "mainstream," do you think that has anything to do with the direction the con's atomsphere has taken in recent years?

>> No.10183847

>>10183058
Mainstream in the sense that now people know it's a thing. 8 years ago a can driver thought it was done pride event, so more recognition is a good thing in my eyes. I'm general anime had also become more mainstream so it's not necessarily Fanime that is attracting this new crowd of people.
