@_@ I think I might need to keep Nejibana in Shikai to keep certain Captains safe.

Kpmonkeygirl and Billgoku I've added you to the list! WELCOME!!
Indeed I'm all for "duplicates" of everyone! That would be AWESOME! Its fun sometimes to have a second third or fifth of your character running around. Quite a few shenanigans and well, hey! NEW FRIEND they like the same character you do! In short, everyone's welcomed!

I'll try to stop by Pika-Ninja ;) sounds like fun but till I know when most the gatherings are and when I'm not doing photoshoots for others I cant make any promises.

ok so prodding at some of the old skool'ers for Bleach and it seams like Fountains in Front Convention Entrance Marriott Side will be the best spot, we've been here before and well, if we want to continue after our hour shoot some of us can chill in the park near by. Any secondary recommendations just in case? Remember there has been construction in some of the aria so not everything available to us last year will be available this year.

Thank you,

Wow, guess I will have to go down there in the next week to see all the changes, but it will be good to see the ol big turd snake.

Sign me up, will either be Ichigo, or Kuwabara from YYH.
#3
I'm so late at posting but sign me up again as Hollow Ichigo.
#4
Yeah, with the new "radio" station that plays music in the resturant...I can't go 10 mins while serving my tables or training without hearing that.
#5
I work at the Red Robin that's maybe 10-15 away from the convention center. Prices are well worth it and the food is pretty good, not just saying this because I work there, just for the simple fact I hate yet love it. Plus, if you happen to go with me or are in my group, discounts are involved. :D
#6
I've completely forgot to add myself here, unless I already did...and forgot...ha but yeah, here I am. Same as last year, Hollow Bankai Ichigo.
#7
Alright, roommates needed,

Age range really isn't an issue.

About myself: Names Bill, 27, live in San Jose. I work and train/manage at a resturant. 7th year Fanime vet. I've cosplayed Ichigo Kurosaki for the past 2 years at Fanime, I wear his banki with the hollow mask. Some of you may remember seeing me, I do get quite a lot of attention in the cosplay, which I don't mind. I'm easy to get along with, make friends fairly easily, you can talk to me without concern really. If you wake me up, its whatever, I pass out in seconds and can sleep through a tornado. I have pet peeves but honestly they're not horrible. If you need to know anything else, physical, personal about me, send me a PM here. I'll respond asap.

Looking for: Someone who can afford around 70-90 room fee, it is the Marriott hotel so EASY access to the convention hall, that's for the entire stay from Thursday-Monday. Any food costs are yours, drinks may be provided(water bottles). There will be males and females in this room so if you're uncomfortable with sleeping in the same room with either sex, let me know. Were all here to have fun and enjoy the convention so don't worry about the little things. Now, I do require you to have a bit of manners, don't touch others things without permission. If anything goes missing, everyone will be responsible for it. Showers? Yeah want ya to smell good. Now if there is any other information you'd Like, let me know again by PM.

I had a lot of fun this year, already missing it, I heard from just random goers that I was one of the best if not the best Ichigo they had seen at the con. I hope to see you all again next year, several faces I knew this year from my first gathering last year so I hope you all come again and again.
#9
Yeah "vertical" is a good word to describe how I tend to carry it unless I'm posing or what not. So I shouldn't have an issue with them trying to bond it to myself I guess. Well I hope because I can't keep buying new props.
#10
Just remember to bring sun screen..don't know about you guys but I bake in the sun with my skin. x_x

You would have to find a way for us to hook them to your costume. Wrenches would be OK but they would have to be peace-tied.

You wand should get peace-tied as a prop, not as a weapon.

If they're hooked to my costume, would I still be able to take them off for photos or would they have to stay there for the entire con, photoshoots included? Sorry for all of the questions, I just want to make sure.
If you were to go to an official photoshoot (and not just a "hey can I have your picture") you could un peace-bond your prop for the photoshoot, but it would have to get bonded again after. We need to attach Kunai to some part of your costume.

Well, unless you're a guy then you didn't bond mine, it was the same person for 2 years straight that damaged my items, well caused damage to them. A almost 5 foot long sword shouldn't be bonded to a 6ft persons waist, just common sense it'll get some kind of wear and tear. If I carry it, its on my shoulder blade in the air. I don't care how many ties go on the hilt just as long as I can "carry" it. Yeah theres a platic chain that hangs from the end of the sword and I understand that needs to be tied to the sword instead of left dangling, thats no problem. Now heads rolling, well you're worried we're going to be the violent ones. O_o lol
Please don't carry your blade over your shoulder. You can pose that way, but if you carry it that way, then there's something poking out behind you that people can walk into. If you turn, you can thump somebody on the head. Please find another way to carry your sword.

I have a non-functioning squirt gun with a cone made of craft foam glued to the business end, all spraypainted blue. Do I still need an orange tip on it, and if so, where would I put the orange tip?



I think it's pretty obvious that it's not a real gun, but I just want to be safe. Thanks!
It needs to get tagged. It does not need an orange tip.

So I happen to Have a Greatsword for my costume that measures in at 6'6

Is this legal?
When you say greatsword you mean... what, exactly? That's a vague descriptor, unfortunately.

Just FYI, for all of you that will be at con, and feel the need to talk to me specifically. I will be at the Convention starting 5pm on Thursday. I will be available a lot, but that is the first point at which you could even possibly find me.

If you must get me, please politely ask a rover to get a hold of me, and if I'm not busy dealing with con business, I'll help you out. On that note, Cassie is another shift lead who is very good at peace-bonding as well. Please do not insult her by demanding to talk to me, when she will tell you the same thing.

I'll continue to check this thread until con. If you  have more questions, please post them.

I'm sorry but if you read my post it says "In the air" meaning the tip is above my head pointing upward, so I'll rephrase it, its leaning on my chest and shoulder pointing toward the ceiling. This way I could spin in place and not hit anyone. Only thing I may hit is the top of a door frame.

"Items which are too large to be holstered may be tagged with a peace-bond and may be hand-carried provided they are never brandished."

This part of the rules that have been posted needs to be stressed big time. 2 years in a row I've had props damage because they were too long to be tied to my waist and were damaged due to too much contact with the ground or other objects, or of course accidently poking people. My sword is at least 4/5s my height about like 4+ft long and they still tried bonding it to my waist.

I don't think any props which I personally peace-tied were damaged. I cannot say that for sure. However, the point of my reply is that yes, we will be policing our peace-bonders so that they know that should a prop get damaged, their head will roll. I put common sense into our guide to how things will be peace-bonded.

I have a few questions: It says that plastic/metal kunai have to be attached to be brought in. What would that look like? If that doesn't work out, would I be able to bring in a pair of wrenches instead?

Also, I have a small wand (http://touhou.wikia.com/wiki/Reimu_Hakurei) that I'm planning on bringing. Would that have to be peace-bonded as well?

I'm going to be cosplaying as Richter Belmont. I was wondering if I can bring a prop leather whip by possibly zip-tying it so it cannot uncoil and put it through my belt loop?
If you can coil it in such a way that you cannot use it, and it can be hooked to you then yes, you can carry the whip.

Found a web site that has both of Ichigo's new masks and they are awesome, but expensive and I don't have enough time to ship them here before Fanime.

I was planning Sebonsakura but kind of broke so XD

Thats no good, sorry to hear that. You could just carry around a bag full of petals and throw them at people.

Its a good thing the place I'm buying my new sword from ships within 3 days..I'd be screwed.

<---Rukia fanboy...

Yeah I loved the opening and ending too, great addition to a long line of good music. Also...damn the manga, got to wait yet another week in suspense.
