Aw, the one day I'm not wearing a Toudan. I'll be in Fudou and Taroutachi on Friday and Saturday though.
Aw, that sucks. We submitted the form for this gathering asking for a Sunday time since a lot more big gatherings are held Saturday, and the Touken Ranbu gatherings have been small at Fanime in the last few years, so it's difficult to compete with bigger gatherings at the same time. It's also the only day the hosts are free, lol.
Hope to see you there still? I'd love to meet more people who like Tourabu!

We've been confirmed! The gathering will be held Sunday, May 28th at 1 pm. The location is G3, the wooden stairs to the right of the main entrance. Hopefully we'll see you there!
