Yeah, I've been looking for final fantasy sheet music for awhile.

That would be really cute!  I've seen lots of people cosplaying as "animals" who just did the head, hands and feet and then wore some sort of leotard or jumpsuit (because the massive all-over suits get sooooooo hot).  They look really cute!  Especially the moogles ^_^

A Tea House would be amazing!  I've only seen them at museums (the SF Asian Art museum), I would love to have the opportunity to actually see a tea ceremony.  

Is there any chance that we would also be able to order tea and refreshments here as well, or would it be purely visual?  (I'm just thinking that it would be such a nice change from the awful con food and I have these images of Japanese high school festival days with a room made up for this kind of thing).

Right, probably a good idea to actually identify my character.  I'll be going as school robes Luna Lovegood.

I crossplay as Youji from White Cross.  I like dressing up as bishounen much more than as a female character.  As a bishounen, I get to talk to and have fun with other fangirls like me!  And I guess the whole point of cosplaying is to pretend to be someone else and to let loose a little.  I act like a girl all the time, it's fun to have a chance to act like a guy.

I volunteer for any piece (although it sounds like the chess players will be making those decisions?).  I'll be cosplaying as Youji from White Cross, which is, conveniently, a black costume ^_^

I'm going as a Ravenclaw student on one day.  My little brother has a Slytherin costume, I wonder if I can convince him to wear it.  

I went to one of the big doujinshi cons in Japan a couple of years ago and there were lots of people cosplaying as HP characters and there were definitely LOTS of HP doujinshi.  

I'm excited that other people are dressing up as well!  I hope that there will be enough of us to get a group going.

It was really disorganized last year, but I found some really rare stuff from my favorite older series for great prices.  This year I'd like to go as soon as it opens, there aren't many places where you can get ahold of older anime goods.

Realistic:
1)  ZZ cds
2)  Gokusen, Sugar Princess, Skip Beat, and Pheromomania Syndrome recent tankoubons.  Complete sets of Koucha Ouji and Funfun factory tankoubons.
3)  Pretty, CLAMP goodies
4)  Stickers!  Especially phone stickers
5)  Shoujo manga shitajiki
6)  Phonebook manga?

Unrealistic:
1)  Jun Matsumoto for my very own (played Shin Sawada in the Gokusen JDrama and Tsukasa in the Hana Yori Dango JDrama).
2)  Croquets and cake sets and mochi and other fun Japanese food
3)  Another ZZ concert
4)  A Rayearth doujinshi featuring good artwork and actual plot for a fuu x ferio story
