My D. Gray-Man gathering pics are up.  Please scroll down below the CLAMP gathering pics C:  http://fanimegatherings.innovateinfinitely.com/2013.html  Enjoy!

I want to thank everyone again for coming.  I feared the turnout was low due to events starting earlier than 2012.  The turnout actually was great XD  I admit I sorta rushed.  I wished I had more time for more pics.  It seemed other gatherings experienced time pressure as well >.>

This is my last Fanime.  I ask someone else to organize Fanime '14.  Follow the procedures from BSaphire and everything is going to be okay :)

Here are my pics for our gathering http://fanimegatherings.innovateinfinitely.com/2013.html  Enjoy!

I want to thank all the D. Gray-Man cosplayers who attended the gathering C:  I appreciated everyone being flexible and going with the flow because a few people wanted to attend the B&W ball and the masquerade.  Nobody knew the official time when the doors opened.  Times released were between 4pm-5:30pm *ugh*

I hope everyone had fun and enjoyed being together :)  I didn't realize how time flew.

I'm working on my photos.  I post another reply with the link.  Thanks for being patient ^__^

In the meantime, our official Fanime photographer, Greg Edwards, posted his pics.  Here's the direct link:  http://cosplayphotographer.slickpic.com/a/Sunday4pm7pm?squared.  Mr. Edwards also posted 2012 pics:  http://gregedwards.smugmug.com/Cosplay.  There are two sections at his smugmug.  Thank you Mr. Edwards for taking our pics!

[Update #3]

Update #3

*Added Versions 1, 2, 3 uniforms to the photo list
*Added more cosplayers

@DracoMancer, added you and nillwings to the list.  We end the gathering at a reasonable time for those who want to attend the B&W ball when the doors open :]

Anyone who wants to attend two gatherings for your D. Gray-Man cosplay, the Shonen Jump gathering is Sun at 3pm located at G6 (The slab at the Hilton side).

I'm 35% likely to attend the gathering.  I haven't finalize my entire Day 3 plans.

The second building is the ballroom building or tower building from the first post?  Just want to make sure because the Fairmont has a main building and a tower building =3

Let's hope there's shade *wipes sweat* XD

[Update #2]

Update #2

BSaphire asked organizers to start the photo list.  The list is on the first post.  Feel free to post suggestions ^^

Fanime will be taking group pictures during the Gathering this year. If you do not want to be included in those pictures please step aside for those photos. By remaining with the group when the pictures are being taken you give your consent to be photographed.

She remembers and shall help ^^ you will have the supplies for the star, right?

Yes  :D  I have paint, brush, spray, and manga for the reference.

[Update #1]

Update #1

*Minor change to title
*Minor changes to first post
*Added more D. Gray–Man cosplayers
*Meeting Place and Location are official!

BSaphire posted a cosplay locations map:  http://s1271.photobucket.com/user/BSaphire/media/GCDLocationsMapFinal.jpg.html  We're G8C. Everyone should have an idea where we meet.  Depending on the size of the turnout, we're likely going to be on the smaller size area under the trees.  Just look for a bunch of black & white cosplays c:

You already know I am going to be Kanda, training outfit version this time xD

With a Lavi in tow :3

Got your two covered.  Remind Lavi she's painting my red star :)

I read the first post listing the time and location Sat 11am at G6.  I do my best to attend the morning gathering.  I arrive at Fanime Sat morning.  It's going to be tight C:

Avairrianna, may I suggest you elaborate MP & L at G6 since some of us probably neither have the time nor the idea to find BSaphire's key gatherings post ^__^

Man, that was fast!  Welcome TwlightLarry.  We should play poker lol

If the gathering is on Sat late afternoon, I attend as Red Medic  :D

Is that NON-Masq day? I think we traditionally do non-Masq day, but I'm not sure what that is this year =A=

Yes, we traditionally gathering on non-Masq day ^^  Masq is on Sun for Fanime '13 because Musicfest announced their first band who plays on Sat.  My preference is Sat XD

I'm cosplaying Syaoran from Tsubasa :)

Welcome to the Fanime '13 D. Gray-Man Gathering!  First, the gathering info:

Date:  Day 3, Sun May 26
Time:  4:30pm
Meeting Place:  G8c (Front of Convention Center, Marriott Side by the trees.)
Location:  G8c (Front of Convention Center, Marriott Side by the trees.)

We organized the Fanime '12 gathering last minute thanks to airanimechiic.  Fortunately, the turnout was good.  Everyone had a good time ^__^  Even Cookie Monster appeared as a substitute Akuma XD  Here's a sample pic from last year:  http://innovateinfinitely.com/fanimegatherings/2012/2012/2012fanimedgrayman57.jpg

I volunteer to organize the Fanime '13 gathering.  We organize it early to discuss anything including when we should meet, photo requests, who's cosplaying as what character, and hanging out before and after.  A few of us even attended the Black & White ball.  Obviously, we're already dressed up lol ;)

To start the conversation, I took the initiative to reserve the day, time, and location.  We can change.  I thought I keep it consistent from last year's gathering time =)  The late time can be beneficial to some who cosplay multiple characters for the earlier and bigger gatherings.  I take pics of the gathering, too.

ININ Allen Walker Ver. 1

Yes, you can use the photos for your personal use XD

I start the 2013 D. Gray Man thread in December.  We have six months to plan, meet each other on the forums, and joke around.  We prepare Kanda to lighten up at the next gathering lol!!!

Thank you inoli for organizing the gathering ^__^  It was a fun gathering, especially going back to Cesar Chavez Park for additional pics.

Here are the pics:  http://innovateinfinitely.com/fanimegatherings/2012.html  Scroll down to our gathering because I posted pics from other gatherings.  Enjoy!

hellangel, thanks very much for organizing and running the gathering!  I'm glad you arrived  :D  I also want to thank the Chizuru cosplayer for taking pics with my camera when I went up with my group :]

Here are the pics:  http://innovateinfinitely.com/fanimegatherings/2012.html  Enjoy!

Pardon the double post to bump up.  The cosplay pics are uploaded =)  Link:  http://innovateinfinitely.com/fanimegatherings/2012.html

airanimechiic and Yuu, I organize the 2013 gathering to avoid the last minute organization nerviouness ^_^  Are you two okay with that?  I do my best to free up time before Fanime to continue organizing and updating unlike this year.

I'm still working on the pics.  I post the link when I'm done C:  Thanks so much for waiting!
