Hello everyone!
I've been going to anime, comic and game conventions since I was 7yrs old. I used to go to Fanime EVERY YEAR dresses in wild rave costumes and whatnot, Cosplayed about 2 times but alternative fashion and Japanese sub-culture fashions back then were my thing.
The last time I went to an anime convention, I was 18yrs old. I'm 25 now and I went for a slip second in 2017 to be in a music video with a friend of mine. And I noticed that people who don't have Fanime passes can't even get in the building anymore???
I'm trying Fanime 2018. Forcing myself to go for the WHOLE weekend because Fanime was something I would LIVE for back in high school (as well as local cosplay gatherings and other cons in the Bay Area).
Can anyone fill me in on what's happened within those 8 years? New rules? Is there even still a dance/rave at night? Do people still hang out in the halls at 3am and talk about each other's problems and hug each other like the good ol days?
Let me know if any changes you've noticed! Because I sure as heck want to know what I've missed all these years!!
