Cons are about getting excited when you see a stranger dressed up from some obscure BS you like too and dorking out with them. Having a bit to drank and crashing a nighttime panel, laughing as it totally devolves. Telling your friend "turn around and look, but don't turn TOO fast, behind you is a human being who thought it was okay to leave the house dressed like that." Getting double-booked with a frozen foods convention and watching men in business suits get VERY uncomfortable as they try to figure out if that's your real hair or a wig without asking. People! Stories! Fun!

Dude, that's 100% Western invention. And I love every minute of it.

I'd far rather visit large western conventions, than go to Japan to see what their cons are like. Japan Expo in Paris, Anime Weekend Atlanta, Hyper Japan in London, Anime Expo, Otakon.. Jeez, by population, USA even has the most cons and attendees of every country in the world.

Most of their advertising leading up to the con was aimed at League of Legends and cosplayers. (Who partners with "League of Hunnies" anyways? That Facebook group started as a complete joke.)

I can at least agree with that. From what I could tell all of the guests were local cosplayers, considering first year con with barely any budget. At the Q and A They were talking about focusing on Touhou guests and even talked about doing a colab concert with a bunch of different musicians.
