Hey guys!
It was suggested on the cosplay.com forums that I pop in here and make a thread for this, so I came on over!
I really want to get together a Madoka Magica cosplay for Fanime this year.
Please leave suggestions for days, times, etc. here so we can get this sorted out!

Hinoto (Myself)
Inai
Other Characters
Snippershoo's Friends:MORNING RESCUE

Anything else, please leave a suggestion!
I hope so hard that you can pull this gathering off - It's my favorite show of the season. I saw another girl somewhere that said she was going to do Mami as well.
If you would like this to be an Official gathering on the Fanime Gatherings list you will need to first update your first post with the correct format. I would also like to strongly suggest reading some of the pinned threads to find out more info.
Thank you
BSaphire
Updated first post to (hopefully) include all of the correct information!
I really need ideas for time and location you guys, or at least confirmation that there's interest. If there is, I'll submit the request, okay? ;)
I'll be cosplaying as Homura and my friend is Madoka.
Yay!
Also, I am considering Sunday for the date and noonish for the time?
I'd love to join as i'm currently making a Mami cosplay as well. :) I was also planning on wearing it on Sunday.
Hihi~ Unyuu's friend and Siyana from cosplay.com here.
I'm good with Sunday and, noonish or after (like 1 or 2) would be great. :)
Updated this thread with dates/times since the only replies I got made Sunday seem like the best day. Keep in mind this is just the preferred date and time.
I am making the official time request very soon (probably later today as I need to get going to work ASAP)
I dunno if they count as from the series, but I have two friends that are going to dress up as Morning Rescue guys that want to come.

Right now I'm working on a rule 63 version of Mami, or better put a gender swapped and if I finish it before the convention I'd like to join :D
I'll be there to do photoshoots, so feel free to pm me for one if you want to do one before or after the gathering. Can't wait to see this happen :3
I might actually end up being a bit late or not making it to the gathering because I don't know when the fanimaid live performance is yet. Sorry. @_@
I'll edit this when I find out the times. T-T

This is awesome.
Anyone else joining us for this?! I am pretty psyched you guys!
I will most definitely be attending, cosplaying Madoka in her school uniform.
Damn I should make a Kyubey costume next year...
We are officially confirmed for this time slot and location, people! Now to put on the finishing touches to my costume! See you at Fanime people!
Hey there guys. I went to take some pictures at the event this year and I was wondering if anyone knew those two girls who were dressed as QB and handing out contracts. They were really great and I was wondering if they've done anything else in the past...

Yay! I'm glad you liked us! The one in the white wig was me, and the other was my friend. We've both cosplayed other outfits both this year and in the past, but I don't think we've done anything interactive like this before. I was also the clumsy Celty in the Durarara gathering this year.
It truly was fun getting all the contracts signed and seeing what people wished for. And I was so happy there were other Kyuubeys at the gathering as well! He hasn't gotten enough love at the other conventions I've seen pictures of.
Also! There was a guy from Aniplex.jp that was scoping out the scene to see if Madoka would be profitable in the US and he talked to us, took a picture and even signed a contract, too. His wish was to "Buy Madoka DVD in US." So if AniplexUSA happens to dub Madoka, our little gathering may have had a hand in it. How cool is that?
EDIT: I know that there were people who wanted to read/sign the contracts and weren't able to because we had to run to the FLOW autograph session right after the gathering, so I'll share the contract here (http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1386339/CONTRACTver4.jpg). And yes, the rune border does say something. ;)

Oh wow! That's pretty crazy -- glad to hear the fans have some actual influence with the industry. I guess that's part of what conventions are all about. Anyway, I think you two had a really great idea. Just looking at cosplayers out-and-about is fun and all, but you guys were really dynamic, and I just wanted to compliment you a few more times. :P

I was so impressed with the gathering it brought me to tears almost T~T
I had so much fun at the gathering, it was full of laughs, fun and fantastic people. I'm glad my Mami cosplay was well recieved. It was one of my first major projects I've worked on. For those wondering I was the shorter of the two male Mamis that were there. :D
Person with the Kyuubey sign here. That gathering was fun!
This was actually the first time I've done/made something for a con. Gotta thank my boredom for that. :D
@MeowDesu You and your friend's idea was simply brilliant! And I just deciphered the runes along the sides... Good one! And here's hoping the wish goes through. Ahahaha...
@Lil Stien You had a teacup with you, right?
Also, I managed to take some photos if you noticed me running around during the gathering. Links to my album in the "One Stop Shot Shop" and "Did you take my photo?" threads if you haven't checked them out yet. Disappointed that I didn't take more. Oh well.

Aye that I did, I was the Mami with a teacup :D I'll be sure to scope out your pics for sure!
'Sup, everyone. I was the male!Sayaka cosplay out there. Glad we all had fun, and thanks for the laughs and fantastic things.
MASSIVE props to the Morning Rescue guys for memorising and performing the entire spiel every time they posed for a photo.
This gathering had the best cosplays. Morning Rescue team and businessman Kyubey too good. I got lots of good photos. Starts on page 5:

Waah I made it to the gathering late and was only there for the last big group photo. I was the Madoka with the Morning Rescue guys on Friday/Saturday. ;-;
It looked really epic though and I wish I had more of a chance to meet and talk with you all. I really wanted to sign a contract too...
I'll tell them that a bunch of people thought they were awesome. MASSIVE thanks to the guy who lent us the bottle of legit Morning Rescue.

Aww...that makes me sad that I missed you. I know it's not exactly the same, but I posted a copy of the contract above if you wanted one. :)
I think I made friends with one of your Morning Rescue guys one Facebook. I thought it'd be great to send some of the Morning Rescue and gathering pictures to gg subs, since they're the ones that started this madness. They'd probably be amused to see it.
EDIT: Never mind, looks like someone linked to a picture of them already in gg's blog yesterday. They'll probably find it soon. ;D
Thank you to everyone who showed up! Only a few people replied here and on coscom so I expected it to be a small gathering. BOY WAS I WRONG!! So much love for everyone.
Also, Kyubey-chans, I totally expect my cookie-making, massage-giving butler ASAP.
Also, after seeing all the photos, I realized my flowers were on backwards. Oh wells!
Hello, sorry for the late posting, but I finally got my pictures up. Have a look over here:

Thanks to everyone who was there -- this event was the highlight of my first Fanime experience! And a special thank you to Hinoto for organizing it! I don't know if anyone else from this group is going to be at AX Madoka cosplay photoshoot in July, but I'll be there with my camera.

Hey guys, just an update with what I was saying about how our gathering may have helped influence licensing of Madoka...
It just got licensed by Aniplex(USA)! I have a feeling we were a part of that when they scoped the gathering out at Fanime. Yay! Now hopefully we can look forward to semi-affordable DVDs and some merchandise.
