trying to book tickets for kita this year on a shitty internet connection was actually hell.

though it beats last year, i was on a train up to visit a friend when reg opened. had to call my mum up to register me and two friends who were also on the train, she had no idea what she was doing.

Who even is that? I've been going to Toko for years and I don't even know who you're talking about, so clearly it isn't that hard to avoid him. There's one twat who really hates me who goes there and I just ignore him, life's too short. That and just make loads of friends so if anyone is unpleasant to you, you have backup. Works for me, I'd just hang out with the pokemon lads I made friends with last year if anything unpleasant or dramatic were to happen.

It's the friendliest con I've ever been to, I make new friends every time I go. But if you're the sort of person to make your event choices based on how attractive the attendees are, I think we'd all rather you stayed away. Too many fuckboys at cons as it is and Toko is one of the very few that doesn't have that problem.

Oh, looking for a qt gf is fine in my book, I just hate those guys who come to cons just to try and get a one night stand with a cosplayer. I don't think Toko's the best place for that because a lot of girls seem to go with their boyfriends. Also, given how small it is, it might be a little awkward if you get rejected by someone and then keep seeing them around all weekend. Your chances are good in a 'friends of friends' sense, though, as it's so easy to meet people in general there. Find out which events look like fun to you, go do those, and get chatting to the people there. Here's a rough rundown of what events to expect, based on last year:
>lots of water fights
>frisbee
>Ready, Steady, Cosplay
>Cosplay Masquerade (it's very casual and you'll be seen as a dick if you bitch about people's costumes or performance, it's not a competitive thing)
>3DS gaming (mostly Pokemon, Mario Kart and Monster Hunter last year iirc)
>AMV Disco in the marquee (it's lame as shit but that's honestly what makes it so fun, it's like a school disco where you're all shitfaced)
>drinking around the bonfire in the evenings
>YGO, Magic etc
>the Assassin game

That about sums it up, I think. It's a pretty unique event and not to everyone's taste, so you should be able to make your mind up from that whether it sounds good to you. I personally love it just because it's so laid-back and social, and because I love camping.

Jeez, why don't you chill about 'spergs'? It's not like they're going you any harm. People who freak out about not mixing with socially awkward weeaboos always sound so insecure. You're going to get them at -any- anime event, you might as well learn to live with them.

Obviously if they're actually causing someone an issue that doesn't apply (See: Spooner), but in general, live and let live. Their lack of social graces isn't going to give you cooties.

That's called patronisation. They're aspies not retards. They may exclusively have issues in initiating conversation and would hence be offended by someone smiling and nodding at them as if they were a toddler after they've finally gathered the courage to speak.

He's hard to evade because he gets up in your grill. You could be eating a sandwich and he'll come and judge you for its fillings or the brand of bread you use or whatever.

Well if they've got something interesting to say then I'm happy to have a proper conversation with them, but equally, I'm not going to lose my shit over some autist trying to tell me that he's breeding red Pikachus that can learn Meteor Mash.

Can I ask what everyone's beef with HJ was? Yeah, it was a bit weird having so many normies around, and a trek between sections, but comparing it to other cons I thought it was a lot better, but I haven't been to HJ in years. Especially compared with like MCM - there's just as much walking only everything's fucking confusing and crowded, the security at MCM have been way more rude than anyone I saw at HJ, no shitty bootleg merch that's at every con with slight variations, if the food's going to be overpriced, I'd rather get a nice meal, actual shows and events that aren't boring as fuck and a bit shit, the only major problems I could really see were overpriced cloakroom, lack of loos and the no professional camera thing. Yet a lot of people who went to HJ were bitching like it was the WORST CON EVER!!!!1111 which I think is a bit of a stretch.

Hmm, looks pretty fun. I've not done that kind of thing for years. Is it pretty friendly then? The one friend I had who was even slightly into cons has left now so I'd be on my own.

Might pick up a ticket anyway. It looks like its going to sell out so I can always get a refund.

Super friendly. The guys on the committee are mostly really nice (the less spergy ones, at least) and in general if you pitch your tent next to people, you can get talking to them. I don't suppose you play Pokemon, do you? If so, come find where people are battling and I'll hang out with you [nospoilersoncgl] if you're not a scrub [/whywouldyouspoileratextandthenthrowitoutofaplane]

Did you guys have any problems with staff, or see any? Apparently people had loads of problems but I thought they were much better than the people MCM put out, although inexperienced maybe. Would liked to have seem more cosplay but I actually really liked the j-fashion/culture aspect because there's no other con that really does that here. Lots of complaints about normies being rude but I just had a few grannies there for the Elvis thing ask what was going on, and they were polite about it. I'm seriously wondering what cons these people go to that have more seating, friendlier staff, better layouts and more food options, because the only one I can think of was Kapow in like 2012/2013? Whenever that was, anyway.

>>	Anonymous Thu Jul 16 18:26:16 2015 No.8485258 >>8485158 No problems with the staff for me. As long as you were respectful if they wanted to scan your bag or whatever then they were fine. The bag scanning was annoying but I guess that's just the venue because they do that for all their events.

I don't think they had any last year so I wouldn't expect any this tine either. I doubt the restaurants would bother hoofing it all the way up to Manchester.

At least the venue is in the city so there are plenty of food options outside the convention itself.

Not really. The security guys and O2 staff were mostly dicks, but that's a given for venues in London. Its the same at MCM. You can hardly hold that against them.

The middle of the day on Saturday when they kick everyone out was a total mess. That the only time I got pissed off, it was so disorganized. But that was pretty minor all things considered.

Yeah, I couldn't believe how many people were complaining! I had a great time.

The different sections were a little disjointed but I suppose that couldn't be helped (except it did seem odd to separate the food court from that main shopping area). My only real complaints were that the food section felt a smaller than previous events, the cash machines running out of money (HJ should really rent some in future like they do at MCM) and the loo situation - having to choose between shitty portaloos, queuing for 3 hours under the Cineworld or walking up Building 6 to those weird red light ones.

>>8485158
Nope, no problems with staff. I also had Elvis grannies politely ask me what was going on. A few stares from normalfags, but you have to expect that.

The beef was that it felt very disjointed and the price for what we got was ridiculous. The food was more expensive than usual, the stages were a bit meh in comparison to other years (I mean making people perform on a mat on the floor, really?). Although I loved the gigs at building 6 those were awesome. In general, it wasn't SHIT, but it wasn't amazing and the criticism is justified.

>>	Anonymous Thu Jul 16 19:01:17 2015 No.8485325 >>8485287 I think the stage at building made up for everything else. They did a really excellent job booking acts this time. I think that easily justified the ticket price.

Have any of you lot been watching the 'Wtf is Cosplay' thing on 4OD?
I think it's pretty misleading. They seem to be focussing on the fetish side of cosplay a lot.

I mean they had two episodes on there dedicated to some burlesque dancer who isn't even technically cosplaying, she's just wearing various underwear with sci fi regalia on. And then there was some guy who was just basically from the BDSM comm. The fuck, Channel 4?

This just really rustles my jimmies because I don't want my family seeing this shit and thinking I'm some fucking weirdo deviant.

One of the creators made a thread on the MCM group earlier today and everyone told her she was an idiot. She said the other episodes haven't even been finished yet but they would supposedly focus more on the 'craftmanship' and 'community'. I wouldn't hold my breath though.

Most people are pretty friendly. I went to toko without knowing anyone 3 years ago and now I know half the attendees. 1st year I helped the guys next to me put up their tent and just got talking from there. It's nice to have a con where you're not rushing around trying to see everyone or get to a certain event. Gophers are mega fun to fuck with as well round the campfire.

Shes just doing the rounds for click bait. She don't give a rats arse what it portraits the cosplay community, as long as it gets the viewers she wins. Don't give it the time of day is the best solution, that way hopfully she won't get another chance to send her garbage to C4. Shes the most hated person in the cosplay scene right now.
