He's been cosplaying for many years now it seems like and all of his cosplays are mediocre at best (pic related). It's funny that he was whining about wanting cosplayers and staff to be nice to him because he's been through drama when he's not nice himself to begin with and he instigates a lot of it. He's been kicked out of several cons for legitimately stalking people (mainly girls but he has followed some dudes around trying to act all macho). Whenever you try to talk to him, he grunts. You ask him for a picture, he grunts. The only time I've ever heard him speak is to say something negative and ridiculous. He was talking shit about some of the cosplayers around him and saying how he's *such a good cosplayer* and no one stands a chance around him when in reality his suck. As far as the kicking out thing, he's also been kicked out for hitting people with his props. He'll get waaaaaay too into pretend sword fights with his props and when the other person says stop, he doesn't. He's hit people with randomly with his props too.

All right you fucking degenerates. Are yall ready to hear why Ikki is always shit, but at the same time its one of the best cons in Texas if youre not an autist. well Im about to give a tell all.

Ive been involved with this autistic romp of an anime convention since they had it at the big tent. Ikki is run by an inept autist that I honestly pity. This poor cuck always bites off way more than he can chew, and never really gives a shit about the input of the staff. When things need to get done, they are half assed and embarrassing.

Here are all of the things that suck about Ikki
>Joke of a rave
>Small space to hold thousands of weebs
>Sjws from Austin and denton trying to fun police and cock block just about everyone who isnt a blue hair landwhale
>Elevators
>Sjw bottom barrel pandering panels that no one asked for
>small panel rooms
>literal joke tier maid cafe

As far as pros go
>Really amazing and awesome people if youre willing to search for them
>The outside area of the hotel is beautiful
>Good spots for food around
>Austin peeps know how to party

and honestly thats about it. Unless you have friends, I would say avoid this shit show

If you're able to cross the highway, there are cheaper options on the other side like Panera Bread, Whole Foods, and Taco Cabana. If you're only limited to the area by the hotel then you may have to splurge a little if possible. Cheesecake Factory and Zoe's Kitchen are decent choices. PF Chang's is around the corner.

And I do. I'm not some walking con greentext, so don't worry about that. From what I've heard from a few people involved so far, they've diluted the staff with some decent people (maid cafe is brand new staff and better than ever, apparently) so it shouldn't be AS MUCH of a trainwreck.

Still, good luck and hang in there. I can't imagine how awful working at a conference hotel is.

I did nothing but commission a lieutenants uniform and they asked me to come along. She hasn't posted on 4chan in seven fucking years, and all of them have every fucking right to celebrate. They've been busting their asses for months for this. If you wanna be a cunt, then be a cunt to ME. Laying my bullshit at the feet of better people than me is where I draw the goddamn line. If you want to talk in person, I will be back tomorrow to pick up my Yukari figure from the dealers room. I will be wearing a jacket with a Free Stalker patch.

She's rightfully celebrating, doing nothing more than singing 'we are the champions' off key, and you have the fucking gall to go "what, you gonna go brag on 4chan about it?" You wanna know what I did after we won?

Can confirm as a cosplay assistant director (for another con), my director gave lorelai a judging spot one year just to get lorelai off of our ass because she felt "wronged" because she didn't win best in show the year before and had a shitstorm on Facebook about it. Damage control was to give her a judging spot without cosplay guest status, but she still used it to brag as if she'd done something deserving.

Keep in mind, I and many other didn't agree with this decision, but our arm was twisted because she cried to the convention head about it and we were told to find a way to shut her up.

Well since we're airing our grievances with Colony Drop and since >>9740195 may actually be here I want to talk about the time I personally saw her be a massive cunt twice in one evening at a cosplay show.
I worked as a backstage volunteer one year at a large con as a general helper and making sure everyone lined up backstage for the show was behaving or if they needed water I would bring water. Lorelei was in line with the guy she's usually with and the two of them were practicing the moves they were going to do on stage. The only problem is everyone was lined up and it was a cramped area. The character she was cosplaying had a large staff and she was swinging it around doing some move with it and clocked the girl in front of her really fucking good with her staff. The girl turns around and I shit you not Lorelei actually tells her she needs to watch out. This other girl had her back turned to her and was facing forward towards the front of the line and Lorelei has the balls to tell her to watch out. They at least stopped practicing at that point and got back in line so I didn't say anything but it really stuck with me

Fast forward to the end of the show and they had placed or won a higher award- I dont remember which and they were out in the hall singing "we are the champions" loudly at the other contestants as they exited the show hall. I don't mean they were doing it passively and just in a "for fun" way, no they were making eye contact with them and were being general douchebags. I have yet to see such unsportsmanlike behavior in all the con shows I have worked at including those with a kids competition. Literal children behave better than she does.

How do these asshats continue to get away with all of this and keep getting to be judges or worse, cosplay guests with behavior like theirs? Someone needs to screencap all these posts and save them for cons that pick her as a judge ffs.

Ten bucks says she'll be the "guest" announced for Okashicon. She's been aggressively going after small cons to let her guest at them as opposed to being asked to guest, so if she says she was "asked" it's a straight up fabrication.

For the last year she's been "guesting" conventions and most people don't seem to know that every event that Lorelei has guested at, the person coordinating the event is the same Henderson chick. These events included Anime on Ice, GoGames360, Pokefest Austin and next Okashicon. She also tries to take charge of this cringeworthy Anime Afternoons thing they do at the Drafthouse, you don't even want to know about that.

Met a young lady recently turned 18 that has been receiving and sending suggestive content to kawaiibro, Or at least it was verbalized. Found out later that day one just turned 18 a week prior to the con, dont know how long she had been receiving the messages but, she's been receiving messages the same tyoe of messages from one of kawaiibro's photographers as well, tried to go into detail but I didnt want to know more. Kinda creepy a 20 something year old want pictures of a girl that just turned 18. Oh trust me when I saw I really didnt want to hear that. Don't know if it counts as pedophilia but its predatory in a sense but i dont want to think about it. Just alarmed me this is something someone picked up too.

Oh and I hate thot patrol. I made it for a 4 ppl evangelion cosplay group back at a-kon, but Zayan made it blow up. I’ve already declared thot patrol dead. It was a one time thing. Let it die pls

Sorry to anyone who actually uses this page for ikkicon talk, so lemme add to the convo.

It was fuckin cold. Did anyone actually plan warm cosplays or did y’all suffer in the cold like I did?? It SNOWED

I mean if they're 18, it doesn't matter, at least they have the legal morality there. It might be predatory but that's only if he is actively pursuing them before they turn 18. If he wants to fuck his fans, he'll fuck his fans. That doesn't make him a bad person or a pedo or anything.

From what was said. It sounded like he waited and lurked before she became of age. This is something told to me BTW. Dont know how long those messages were sent. He could have been sending them prior to her birthday either way having young women explicitly try to tell you the types of messages they send out leaves a bad taste in my mouth.
