Dude, this small con called "Fanime."  It's really not all that known yet, but it has a lot of character.

Fav Con so far?

It's a tie between Fanime and SakuraCon.

Next year, I'm flying up there. The drive and the toll it takes on you it's not worth the hassle.

Now, now, Ryu, just because SakuraCon got m.o.v.e. this year doesn't mean they'll be able to do it again~<3

Yeah, AX is bigger, but you cant really compare the two. Theyre completely different types of convention.

"Hu" is an unused alternate spelling of the japanese "Fu." Japanese "letters" generally come in groups of five...the consonent attached to each vowel A I U E O, KA KI KU KE KO, and so forth. But the U sound in the H set is different...its generally not pronounced "HU" but rather "FU" and this is how it is usually romanised. "HU" isnt technically "wrong" per se....but it is uncommon and unecessary to the point of being rediculous. Basically, they were trying to japanify "Fanime" in as obscure a way as possible =P XD (I should also note that there is no "F" set in japanese. If you need an F sound you have to use "FU")

OVEREXPLAINER STRIKES AGAIN! *flies away on his magical television*

I did a google search for Huanimekon and it took me straight to this thread.  :roll:

When it comes to managing a database I think google takes the cake.

Anyways I have AX on my list of "places to visit before you die" maybe I'll go next year....I've been saying that since 2001.

reason no. 192 why Fanime is better then Huanimekon,

Vietnamese restaurants within walking distance that give you bad service but cheap and good food...yeah!

As long as someone is along to translate for us. XD

As for favorite con... well, there's always SiliCon on the same weekend. And then Anime Expo is the biggest. And, well, MAGFest has always seemed like it could potentially be fun. Seeing all those videogame musicians and such. Then, if you're in Japan, there's Comike, or "Comic Fest" if you're watching Genshiken.

... aww, who am I kidding?

Fanime all the way.  I agree that AX is fun to go to and all that, but it is WAAAAAAAAAAY to corperet for my taste.  

Why do you think some of us call it "ASux"

The rules for getting into the cosplay competition are rediculese.  :evil:

So that's why I say FANIME ALL THE WAY!!!!!!!!!!
