Are you talking about the pre-reg line? last year I went an hour earlier and I had to wait for about 2.5-3 hrs but its not the staff's fault, there are only a handful of staff members on day zero working hard to get everyone out of the line as fast as possible.

I guess I just got lucky last year, I was only in line maybe 30-40 minutes.

Sometimes waiting in line at Fanime isn't that bad, as long as you have a DS/PSP/iTouch/Phone and/or am able to chat with people around you

The Registration line is very long compared to the pre-reg line, but however long the wait there's always time for new friends! (^o^)

The longest and most time-consuming line is usually the Cosplay Spectacular line, and not any of the registration lines.
You're waiting outside, the line (traditionally) wraps around the Civic Auditorium and Tech Museum, and the line starts many hours before the show actually begins. You also may be missing most of the Saturday Fanime activities waiting in line.

Not that I'm complaining or anything.

^ Sometimes, that line would wrap around itself. It's great fun seeing a human wave go in that line. XD

I remember that last year! I gave up when i saw the line started to loop around the tech museum XD. But i had my fill of fanime, i my poor feet were already tired.

I was in the pre-reg last year, and people are generally nice, people just started talking. I thought the guys in front of me were originally friends turns out they just met there for the first time.
