With The Will Of Fire! Naruto Gathering 2011!

[BrightHeart76]

Hi Everyone!

I finally got a chance to update.  Sorry for such a long delay.  Things have been crazy around here, but that's not an excuse to put you guys off.  Hope you can forgive me.  I'll be more attentive from now on.

I'm very excited by this update.  Lots of great cosplays!  I'm getting excited to see the gathering this year.  :)

explosive_artist and blkriku, I really debated where to put your cosplays.  While they are part of the Shippuden story, they haven't shown up in the anime yet (that I'm aware of).  I chose to put you under Manga / Artbook.  If you would prefer that I move you to the Shippuden group let me know and I'll move you.   :)

My next step is to start the poll regarding WHEN the gathering should be.  I've heard rumors that Masquerade will be on Saturday again this year, so I don't want a late gathering since it might cause problems.  I also don't want it too early in the day because I want to make sure people are awake.  Really think about it before you vote, please.

Speaking of voting...  Far be it from me to push my politics on you.  However, if you are registered to vote on November 4th please do it!  So many people who can vote don't take the time.  Go out and vote if you can! 

Done with my soap box.  Keep talking guys!  Can't wait for Fanime this year!!

I was there last year as a random anbu.

I'm gonna be kakashi or young kakashi this year

[Myth]

Oh! I forgot to mention that my friend is coming as SnJ Deidara. :D We're gonna be togethers. < 33

[blkriku]

Ya, I don't think it right to put us under art since we are actual characters, maybe you can make a new category thats called future characters or something like that? or maybe you could split up manga and art. at this point it doesnt really matter. once more ppl sign up you can decide on it

[iKuraudo]

Can you please just take off my Kakashi and Gaara ones? (I'm no longer doing them)
I will be doing just Sasori. :3

[Sora]

That is such a tough decision. What time, huh? Wow, I have no clue either...

[InsaneChan]

I plan to be there as ANBU Sakura ^^ I'm really excited about it!

[clawmaster]

I be there as naruto TJ! wooot! ^^b

and if i see any tj hinatas......u might prepare for a glomp XP

[Dragon Ninja]

@clawmaster-I'm also going as TJ Naruto, could you give me some helpful tips on how to make his headband?

[JiiiWiz]

Wah dang it. >.< I won't be walking around as the rainbow mask tobi sadly :[ I will only be Snj lolita deidara for the gathering and be younger deidara or konan, walking around the con. So yeah, D: Maybe next year I will be tobi :D I won't have to make his armor parts anyway. See you all next year! Jamata ne.

Updated again!  YAY!!

We have our first event listed.  GomenNasaiPro had a great idea to get together a group of people for Formal Naruto Attire.  Trying to get people to pull something together and take our group to the Black and White Ball.  Awesome fun for everyone!  Join in!

I'm a little surprised at the poll results so far!  I had a lot of complaints last year that having the Gathering at noon was too early.  So far, noon is winning in the polls.  Hmm...goes to show you that I don't know everything.  :)  I'll keep the poll up for a couple of months so we get a lot of responses.  BSaphire usually doesn't even accept schedules until January.

Keep up the good work guys.  We're half way there, 6 months 'till Fanime.  (That makes me happy AND sad at the same time)

Later days!

Eek, I'm sooo sorry to constantly be making so many changes to the list like this, BrightHeart, but I'm afraid my friend won't be able to do Loli Sasuke this time around. :3
And in addition, I think you forgot to take my friend off for regular Haku when you put her up for Loli Haku. ^^;
Thank you so much for all this! ^^ *tackleglompsquish*

[luluuxduplica1223]

Hello ^^ Sorry but, can you take me off for Shippuden Sakura and Tenten. I'm gonna be pre-shippuden Sakura.

:) It looks like this gatherings gonna be big. Maybe bigger than last year.

[GomenNasaiPro]

I think the 2009 Naruto gathering will be bigger because or the original gathering and the Black and white ball gathering

[JiiiWiz]

You can sign me up in the second naruto gathering lol :P I might be either formal konan like last year or just deidara in a tux. Haha. Not sure...
As it gets closer, I'll figure it out ^^ I am so excited!
This is definately going to be a bigger gathering than last year.

[JiiiWiz]

And just a picture I took last gathering :P Just for smiles.~

[GomenNasaiPro]

[GomenNasaiPro]

Does anyone want to help spread the word to all Naruto fans about the Formal Naruto gathering at the Black and White Ball.

- Thanks

[JiiiWiz]

Ah....Idk. I really think the gathering should start at 1 or 2 pm :( It gives time for Naruto cosplayers to gather up. But whatever the Naruto cosplay community decides, I'll go with it anyway. Just thought I'd give my opinion.~
