I'm already somewhat depressed knowing Fanime's going to fade away in less than 24 hours.
Wax nostalgic about the con here. XD
More like 17-18 now...
Quote from: HeeroYuy135More like 17-18 now...
But it sounds worse when you say "less than 18 hours" as opposed to "less than 24". x.x
I'm depressed cos I think I lost my glasses at the hotel 3___3;;...
Where was Asami Sanada? I didn't see her listing in the programming schedule for autographs. D:
It has started-- the Depression of 07!
I'll be providing pills, anyone? I was depressed because I didn't go, but now, fufufufu, knowing that many more will join my ranks sends a smile to my face! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!
Jk, of course.
Just think of this way. What makes Fanime great are the fans and the fans are here.
Or if you want to be less cheesy, Fanime is only a year away :/
What brings me out of a funk is that time will pass by so fast and Fanime 2008 will be upon us.
Of course, I'm posting this from home, so I'm not seeing the rooms being closed along with not seeing the teardown of the convention...but I still feel depressed anyway.
I don't know about the time thing! It seemed like forever waiting for Fanime 2k7.
I'm posting this at home, too. Fanime's been over for me :(
I've been having the depression since last night.
But that's what sparked my interest in going to Anime Expo now.
Thing is...I'd need a room and a ride.
T_T
I only went for one day, and already I'm missing it. I still feel like I didn't do as much as I could've. I wanted to give out candy (TO STRANGERS :D) but I ended up only giving one to this really nice guy (who later gave me Pocky in return o.oV)
Mei, I think I saw you on Sunday (that was the only day I went >.>)! You were the Link in black, right? I was one of the many Ls, but one of the few that was chained to a Light, if you can remember. I'm sorry I didn't say hi >.<
But I had a ton of fun. I can't wait until next year ^^ I plan to go for more than just a day next time >.ob
Ah....Fanime '08's only a year away~
I lost my Disgaea: Hour of Darkness game in my hotel room.
My friend lost his retainer.
My other friend lost his walky talkies.
Then my other friend lost his sanity... literally.
Then ANOTHER friend caused us to lose all respect for her...
Then ONE MORE friend and me gained all our dignity by running from floor 26 to floor 1. ^^ That was fun.
I feel like I didn't do much, either. In fact, yesterday and today was a total waste. My friends and I were so bored. We have to find other things to do than to shop >_<;
Yes, I'm the black one (I was usually with a multi-colored Link group and clinging onto a green one). I believe I was the only one in the whole convention. Most people didn't know where the "black Link" came from. I was wondering which L you were ^^; It's all good, perhaps next year.
Did anyone spot a group of Links from The Four Swords?
Quote from: MeiDid anyone spot a group of Links from The Four Swords?
Were you outside of the Arcade like yesterday before 7? >_>
Quote from: MeiDid anyone spot a group of Links from The Four Swords?
I have the picture. (http://waffles.nagatocity.net/fanime/1/fani_friday_009.html)
I saw the purple one, but that's it. >_> Nice picture though, you guys are cool. :D [lessthanthree]
Yeah, as the old quote, it was fun while it lasted. Pretty much in the last night, me and 4 other friends i only see at fanime just basically kicked it and talk until like 6 in the morning. damn, i miss fanime so much already. haruhi suzumiya gathering was awesome.
--duplicate entry edited out--
what depresses me the most is that i wasnt able to watch the masquerade.
Things I learmed from my first Con:
1. Do get that hotel reservation
2. Do not bring bulky things, unless you have the proper transportation to bring it with to make it more convenient.
3. Pass a day-off form to your boss if fanime has 4 days.
4. Buy the things you fall in love at first glance, because you'll be whining for it when Fanime ends, and ill be whining for it again and again.
5. sitting down and talking to different people is cool!
6. What's more cool is that the people you met loved your cooking (shared my tuna with tomato sauce onigiri)
7. Them tuna onigiri disappeared 5 minutes :|
8. Don't drink, saw them drunk people and they don't seem to enjoy with their muddled state of mind.
9.bring cardboard and marker for posters( Glomp me!)
I'm not quite sure... We might have passes it, but we don't hang around the arcade though we were in there on Saturday.
*giggle* Thank you very much, Spiritsnare! That's awesome! Figures I'm not in the picture, though. I wasn't in half of the pictures XD
Rainbow Ichi, I can relate! I was so contemplative and indecisive about what I should purchase and whatnot, and I kept whining to my friends. I'm very happy with what I did end up buying, though.
I kind of wanted a hug me sign. I love hugs (and glomps, but for my safety and the glompers... ahahah. I'm mostly skin and bones and easy to knock over) and I tried to hug everyone with a hug sign. I kind of failed, as did my heart Post-It on my chest asking, "HUGS? <3"
well... the Spartans stole my boot......
..yes only one..
it was the best boot ever, and i miss it...
besides that and feeling like complete shit on Sunday.. i had a freaking amazing time.. the depression hit me as i was walking to my car today... i miss Fanime....

same here, walking to my car was depressing.
When I got to my apartment after the 6 hr trip back home... I felt different. It wasn't same like finding all of the fanime around you anymore. Now I just sit here alone in my apartment, feeling sad that fanime 2007 is over. I don't know who I met at fanime, but whoever they are, they will always be here in my head...
So depressing... cant wait for fanime 2008.
Eh....
I dunno, it felt low-key this year. Part of it was from the con itself, part of it wasn't. Either way, I'm not too sad about Fanime being done this year, but rather the chance of seeing friends I haven't seen in a while. I suppose if anything, I left satisfied. After all, I viewed this more of a time for me to unwind rather than an escape from reality. I've done too much escaping as it is. :?
*emoemoemoemoemo*

alright time to sleep zin... you got another year ahead of you.
Zin needs to hibernate. Eats lots of ramen.
Oh man...next time I say I'm doing cosplays with long sleeves in weather like this, stop me. PLEASE. I spent far too much time running around in either three layers or long thick sleeved outfits.
Even though the trek back to my car was depressing enough with trying to keep all my costumes and my prom dress from trailing on the ground, I really wanted Fanime to last another week.
Quote from: EkacZin needs to hibernate. Eats lots of ramen.
That actually sounds like I good idea... I think I should be awake by October...
I wonder if I hugged any of you guys XD *is now officially known as 'Top hat hug girl'*
I feel for you, kuroi. My costume also required a long sleeve, and some sweatpants. The car ride to the convention center wasn't fun at all, especially since my costume had a lot of black.
Despite my somewhat event-less Sunday and Monday, I'm really starting to miss Fanime. So much that I'm stalking and posting in the forums like crazy.

If you hugged a dude in a gray dickies overshirt with a red shirt underneath, you got me. :/
Depression moments:
- My wiimote cosplay nearly destroyed!
- Bumps and bruises on my head.
- Not being able to get to most of the places.
- Not buying much.
- Lack of sleep.
- Missin out on the masquerade.
Quote from: xxxplizit (pogi1kenobi)Depression moments:

Omg. I have a picture of you.

I have a movie (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eWR_B_pefaE) of that cosplay. It's not you inside, though.
I saw that. It was pretty amazing, especially with the games that followed the DDR one.
Having to leave Fanime and come back to UCSC and do homework and junk for three more weeks? Blegh. Major depressioso. I'd love to be able to be out of school for a con at some point so I don't have that rush of real-world gotta-get-stuff-done right after coming back.
Gotta love WiiMotes.
Im getting depressed replying to this topic. :cry:
But yeah, this year's fanime compared to the last two (05' and 06') was kinda blah...however seeing fanime people again and hanging out with friends made it the best fanime ever. :D
o btw...WiiMote guy, you are genius =)
We stayed in the convention center till about 8:30, we didn't want to leave, and we never will forget the time we had this year. It was my second Fanime in a row, and I pray to god that time flies by so fast, next Fanime comes around quickly. Sitting here in my apartment makes me feel incomplete, those rooms were so nice and even though it was a ton of walking, I enjoyed every second of my time there.
Thank you to everyone who I met, who glomped me while I did my first Bagman cosplay with the real Bagman and who actually knew me as Sosuke Sagara, and thanks to everyone who put together Fanime Con this year, it was a blast.
Sheesh. Cursed topic name.
Seeing all my friends back here from out of state and seeing em go sucks horribly. :(
Feels so short though...
What depresses me the most is I didn't get to meet new people. I'm really shy (in the beginning) so I didn't really have the courage to talk or really interact with people. I tried the best I could. Maybe I'll just have keep talkin to you guys here on the forum and maybe we could meet up in the next con. That way I'll know you before I even get there. XD
Yeah, the post-con depression's starting to set in with me now, especially since I finished working with my pics from this year and can't use that as the basis for putting it off. Lots of good memories this year, and a few regrets (like not being able to run into a particular cosplayer on Monday and perhaps actually chat her up :( ).
Ah, the long wait until next year's Fanime...
Last year I got hit a lot harder than this year.
I've been sorting through my haul and whatnot, so I'm doing alright, but I think as soon as I have to sit down and go back to job applications and stuff then it'll hit bad.
The $6 Saber pencilboard (the large kind) that I got on Sunday is keeping me cheered up because I put it on the empty space right by computer so it's in my peripheral vision all the time.
Fanime has been the happiest day of my life. Now all myother days seem sucky by comparsion. I'm really sad I didn't go to the dance though.
Yea, the depression sucks
One thing that's been kicking me is that I didn't ask for the contact info of a really awesome cosplayer I met, or ask her to the ball.
T_T
What's the ball about?
I had a list of cosplayers I wanted to hug, but never got around to. :cry:
i feel really bad. i felt like i haven't done enough through the weekend. for the 3rd year running, i felt as if too much time/money was wasted in the arcade (though i did enjoy doing the robot on the para para paradise machine and having some damn sweet puzzle fighter matches, not to mention the mere presence of MBAC and GGXX/\C).
i wanted to hit the dealers room more often to buy stuff, but being the apprehensive buyer i am, i ended up only buying a bunch of manga, a poster, and a Matou Sakura model.
i also wanted to sit through a marathon, but i ended up seeing the last half of Magikano.
oh well, the H-room was full of laughs, as usual. till the break-o-dawn, baby. haha.
in short, there were things that were sweet, but i felt as if there was more that wasn't this time around. till next year, fanime. till next year...
this was my first con and i LOVED IT and now itss over... *sniffles* Despite the wonderful Jpop and classics (backstreet boys xD ) we played in the car on the way home i couldn't stop thinking about how i was going home to homework and school and teachers... and testttssss... :cry:
only thing keeping me going was my NUMEROUS purchases... namely my PANDA HATTT :D

(between u and me i spent the bus ride to school hugging it to avoid after-con blues and b4-test double blues ^.- )
Well the ball thing was some thing the went on, don't remember clearly as I never really stayed in one spot long enough to find out what was going on until we needed to rest.
But yea, I wish I had introduced myself and got her contact information.
:cry: I need a hug :cry: It's over :cry:

thank you :D
I also need sum hugs...
HUGIIIIIEEEEESSSSSS :D :D :D
YAYNESS!!!!
does anyone else feel board in school?
besides me
I feel bored at work, that's kinda the same. xD
Well, this was my first con. And even though I only went for one day (even though I had a 3 day pass ><) I had a blast. Some improvements I want to make on my experience for next year are: I wanna stay for at least 2 days, I want to cosplay, I want to meet new people.
you should stay the entire weekend, definitely cosplay, and the meeting new people is easy if you go to the gatherings. :D
Well, congrats, you are no longer a con virgin. :D
no one gave me hugss even tho i gave u hhugggs... thats not very fair :cry:
For me the con went by way to fast. There so much I wanted to do. I still imagine groups of cosplayers walking over to McDonalds or jack in the box when ever I see groups of people crossing the streets.
There'll be other cons between now and fanime, but it's not the same. post con blues sure do suck. Eventually this will become the pre-con stress.
:D HUGIES!!!!!!!!!!! :D
I'm doing ok. After con, I can always count on my clients smiling faces to cheer me up. That and I have a new .hack OST to keep me company (and my clients love it too).
My roommate, however....this was her first con, so she's already missing it. I'm thinking about taking her to SacAnime.
Do it
As I dropped each of my friends off after the con, we'd just hang around for 20 minutes or so with absolutely no idea what to do, but not wanting to just go our separate ways. It was around 6 and we were pondering going back, even if there wasn't that much to be done. Oh well, it was fun and will be fun next year.
Quote from: K&K4everdoes anyone else feel board in school?

Well, of course.. but that's not con-related :P
i think reading other peoples responses to this thread is making me even MORE depressed that its over... :(
why must we have to go back to society?
:cry: Man I feel the depression too ; ;
I went to work on Tuesday to find out they wanted me to take out my 4 wisdom teeth, which they did on Wednesday :cry: , I had fun in the Fanime con and went right into pain from the operation XD
I'm kinda depressed at the moment...and angry too...forum drama is NOT pretty. (I was the subject of it about 2-3 months ago >_<)
Well, there's only one thing I consider good about the con being over, I can go the dentist (My teeth really need to be looked at) I didn't go before because I didn't want to be there with chipmunk cheeks in case I needed root canal. :roll:

How much Pocky did you eat?
NO, it's just that I haven't been to the dentist in years
Root canals hurt so so so bad. /).(\
That's the reason why I'm going after fanime
Ouch, I HATE the dentist :/
Hopefully they wont make take out your wisdom teeth. Although I heard in the civilian world thats reallly expensive
I remember one winter break, I had my wisdom teeth taken out..and then two weeks right after I had to get a root canal. Worst winter break ever.
Quote from: ChpalOuch, I HATE the dentist :/

They're already out, all I have to worry about is root canal :(
I'm just depressed that it's over but happy i was there my mother tried to keep me away because i had one F just ONE but i snuck out early in the morning to catch the bus She can't keep me away form Fanime Not EVER!!!!!!!!! :twisted: :D
glad you could make it.
Quote from: ChpalOuch, I HATE the dentist :/

wisdom teeth arent so bad... i mean i just recently had mine taken out and it doesnt rly hurt its only that after u cant eat and THATS a pain. -.-
but it wasnt as bad as i thot it would be :)
root canals tho ive heard r prettttty bad so i hope no one has one :(
I feel like I wasted my fanime....I spent most of my time playing super smash brothers melee Dx T_T Though I did make a big impact on most of the players there except for the pro players xD

If you played it the ConCade [woot, my own word] then you're fine, if you sat in your hotel room all day and played, well mehhh...
I sat in the hotel room for a majority of the time Disgaea-ing or Guitar Hero II-ing.
I'm probably gonna have flashbacks of everything I was doing at a certain time at Fanime this weekend...which will make me even sadder
I wear Mint (Galaxy Angel) ears to school as a physical sign of my post-con depression.
Did anyone look at the front page recently? You want depressing. It currently says 357 days. I really hate the calendar right now.
::melodramatic sigh:: I guess it's time for a "real life" ...for a few months at least.
Quote from: SpiritsnareI wear Mint (Galaxy Angel) ears to school as a physical sign of my post-con depression.
Those ears were damn expensive. Even though I'm a dood, I wanted a pair. :P
Hay, they started the count down on the web site. :D
. . . the numbers make me depressed :cry:

I'm a dude. I purchased a pair whilst ignoring the price, because they're that awesome.
I wore them at school starting with my physics class.
Fifth period (Physics):
Random Students: Nice ears.
Sixth period (Am. Gov):
Teacher: "By the way, any people wearing rabbit ears [sic] in my classroom will get 100 points deducted..."
Me: ::yanks ears off::
Seventh Period (Journalism):
Random Students: ::staaaaaaare::
I plan to wear them all this Friday, which is my last day of school (senior last day banzai!).

Where do you get them? :?
The Broccoli booth. They're always a dealer.
Thanx :P
[whining]
well, about a month later and with major thanks to youtube, PFS is plagueing (sp?) me again.
I WANT THE CON! A YEAR IS TOO MUCH! WAHHH! :cry: [/whining]
We should have it twice per year.
I want to get a pair of ears. I didn't have enough money last time for them.
After having a really fun time last time at Fanime I am also finding it hard to wait until May 2008. ...On the plus side though I have got plenty of time to put my costume together. It's not hard, just very time consuming with all the little details.
Quote from: hugmeimnerdyWe should have it twice per year.
I don't think we could survive it. :shock:
I don't think I'll be going to AX, but SacAnime doesn't look too out of the question...
