Title: Things you wish you could've done at Fanime 07
Post by: Stormfalcon on May 31, 2007, 01:26:20 PM
With so much going on at the con at times, there's bound to be some stuff you wish you could've done, but weren't able to.  Like catching a particular show or panel, running into someone (and not as part of an unwanted glomp, hopefully), attending an event, etc.  So here's where we can share the stuff we missed out on due to some misfortune or another, and hope for another chance next year!

As for myself...

- I wish I made the time to go to the Fanimaid Cafe.  I wanted to, but the lines were discouraging and other things kept getting my attention :(  Hopefully, it'll be bigger next year!

- Due to going to the Fanime BBS dinner, I ended up missing out on the Fans Over 30 panel, which sounded like it was fun to go to for those of us who've been in fandom for quite a while.

- I really wish I had a chance to chat up a particular female cosplayer during the con, but our paths hardly crossed after Friday's swap meet :(

- Certain shows totally slipped my mind, like the live-action Cromartie, and I ended up missing out on them :(

Anyone else with stuff they wish they had caught while at the con?

I wish I made time to visit this Maid Cafe thing. Everyone's talking about it. I have no idea what it is.

And it would have been nice if I taken more pictures with people, too. Ah well. Maybe next year.

-I really hoped to catch at least one showing of "Damn You Internets!".
-Anime Hell
-Live Action "Death Note" one and two.  

I wandered past the Fanimaid cafe, tempted, but decided not to go since the menu was not too appealing.

Well, actually I didn't take any pictures...I didn't want to feel slowed down because I'm taking as many pictures as I can...I meant "Get more people to take pictures of me" (I was cosplaying)

My QFT still stands. (Although I wish I'd taken more pictures as well. I feel lame for only having taken like forty or so [most of those being silly ones of my friends and me]...)

1)  I wish I had dressed as Gendo this year so I could get up and dance during ReDeath

2)  I wish I had finished my AMV in time to be submitted.

3)  I wish I had taken my Lillith (from Evangelion) costume up on stage during Masquerade this year (I hear the drunken Ritsuko was pretty funny)

4)  I wish I had gone to the Masquerade, as they picked the one year I didnt go NOT to suck, apparently.

5)  I wish that I didnt have to go home...especially after meeting some of the women.

- doing more than just shopping in the Artists' Alley and Dealers' Room.
- taking more pictures of people and cosplays.
- giving people more hugs, especially to those with signs.
- watching Romeo x Juliet and/or Umizaru (I didn't know they were showing!)
- generally just having a better time. I felt like I totally wasted Sunday and most of Monday.

Sleep.

But in all seriousness, I wish I could've chilled with my friends more, and I wish I could've not taken a 4 to 10AM shift, ever, then fall asleep at 11AM and wake up at 4PM, missing a lot of the con on Sunday.

Oh yeah, and the second half of Damn You Internets.  A video just doesn't feel like a replacement for the actual experience, you know what I mean?

2) It would of been nice if all of my hotel roommates could of went out to eat together for once but everybody had different schedules.

Fanime 2007 was my first con experience, so I missed a lot really. You can't imagine how many times I went to the Dealer's Room everyday. Things I REALLY regret were
1. Missed all the Premiers of "True Naruto Style Movie". I missed more than half of its last showing.
2. Missing out on the Masquerade, which I heard was extremely awesome.
3. Not able to watch more Asian films. I missed most of the movies I wanted to watch. Thankfully, I was able to watch 200 lbs Beauty, which made up for most of it.  :D
4. Not having a table at Artist Alley. I need the experience to see if I should get one next year.
5. Watch more concerts. I backed out at one since I needed to go home.

-hugged more people.
-bought more stuff.
-went to the Dealer's Room earlier so I could've seen some stuff I really wanted before it was all gone.
-didn't sit around doing nothing so much.
-had a more enthusiastic cosplay partner that didn't study SATs the entire time he was there.
-took more pictures.
-acted more in character.
-went to the bathroom more to fix my hair. It got really saggy. Hah.
-took my nametag off during photoshoots. So many potentially awesome pictures were ruined because I forgot to take off/remove my pass.

....And that's about it. I still had a blast. But I WILL work hard to enjoy Fanime even more next year :D

- Seen Mari Ijima, which I was planning on seeing this year, but by the time I finished my staff shift, I was too tired.
- Taken more pictures. I took so much video footage of MusicFest on Friday that I ran out of camera space for all the other stuff, including Masquerade T________T.
- Seen the Karaoke competition(MusicFest conflicted a bit).

I'll add more if I find something else.

- Had more time to browse the dealer's room, as opposed to only stopping by briefly.
- Not gotten sick. Seriously.
- Stopped being grumpy because I got sick.
- Made it to the Final Fantasy gathering in my Larsa outfit.
- Made it to the maid... thingie... event.
- Looked around the Artist's Alley more then just walking by.
- Stayed longer at the Black and White ball, instead of being stuck and extremely bored at the Yaoi Bingo event.
- Brought bandaids.
- Brought my laptop so I could upload my photos and take more pictures.
- Taken pictures of cosplayers I wanted to take pictures of (seriously, I only took one picture of a cosplay I wanted to take a picture of. And there were tons, tons more~).
- Got pictures of a few of my outfits.

Post by: riri-chan on June 22, 2007, 11:34:40 AM
I actually did not go.  I just heard this thing existed, yesterday, when my mom and I went to San Francisco and to the Asian Art museum to see a thing about Manga and Anime since it's japanese (duh x2) and well, it's an Asian Art museum so well, you get the point.  But anyway, I saw a girl with a Mokona (from Tsubasa-Chronicles you probably already knew that since the FanimeCon seems to be for people who are really obsessive about Anime no offense, I like anime too!) Since you've probably forgotten what I was talking about in the first place, the point is is that there was a girl there that was wearing a-a-a-a- MOKONA FLEECE CAP!!!!!!!!!! AND I WANT ONE FOR MY FRIEND AND ME AND MY TWO OTHER FRIENDS BECAUSE MY FIRST FRIEND IS COMING HOME FROM A VERY LONG VACATION IN GUATEMALA TO RELAX AFTER SOME FAMILY ISSUES AND SPEND TIME WITH HER GRANDMA WHO IS REALLY COOL!!! But sadly, I did not go to this convention, therefore I did not get a mokona-hat for me and all my friends... :shock:  :cry:

SO PLEASE, I AM NOT BEGGING YOU, ANYONE, IF YOU KNOW WHERE ELSE TO GET A MOKONA HAT, PLEASE PLEASE TELL ME WHERE BECAUSE I SAW ONE ON EBAY BUT THERE WAS ONLY ONE AND IT WAS 15$ WHICH I KNOW IS NOT A LOT BUT PLEASE PEOPLE, IF YOU KNOW WHERE TO GET A CHEAP ONE PLEASE TELL MEEEEEE!!!!

Thank you  :P

He... should... have... played? Sorry, that one went over my head.

Anyways...

1) Brought My Camera
2) Bought/Brought a Video Camera
3) Uploaded Event Pictures/Videos During Con (will do next year, count on it)
4) Played More MBAC (lulz)
5) Been on Video Programming Staff (once again... next year, for sure)
6) Attended more events if only to photograph/record them.
7) Taped some fighting game matches.

Oh, and for the person that wanted to watch the RXJ screenings... don't worry, it didn't have subtitles (see #5) >_>

Well, I think so, Emerge, but what does continent of origin have to do with the velocity of an unladen swallow?

My list of what I wish I did at FanimeCon 2007 is waaay too long to type up.  The con was just too short for the number of things going on.

Sigh...

I breakdanced at the Fanime convention this yr, but I didn't do as many tricks/flares/windmills as I thought I did. I was able to do alot of poses and handbalence though.

Next yr I plan to do more breakdance tricks at the rave party and at the front ^+^. Those of you who saw me , ^_^ arigato for the support. (I was the Filipino guy with dyed red hair on one side). Okeiiii, byeee ^^

Being on staff... I've wanted to know about GR.

aka Guest relations. one of the most interested Job (but i would guess as stressful) as any staff position.

I personally wish (from a fan perspective) to have a contest for the fans to allow them maybe a lunch/dinner with their favorite guest.

sorta being able to meet and greet in a personal touch and away from other screaming fans.

Ironically though, I dont have any idol, voice talent, or general celebrities to name off my head. but that would be an awesome experience for shure. :3

There are are a lot of things that IO regret not doing. Getting glomped more is one of them. XD. I also wish I could have been in more SSBM tournaments. They were always so packed. Not that I was good enough to beat anybody XD. Oh yeah! I missed some really good hentai at hentai night my best friend says. One called Hentai Academy. It must have been really good because everytime I bring up fanime he brings up how I should have seen it. Glowstick!!!! Where the hell were all those people  in the dance getting them. I wanted some.

yeah, a few years ago, there was this cosplayer who dressed up as drizzt, and was very attractive. I had a gf at the time, so i would sooner chop off my own johnny, but i was disapointed that i didnt see her last year, when i was single.

i regret of not thinking up THE BROTHERHOOD earlier.

other then that, i dont regret a damn thing. it was quite the enjoyable experience.

It's easy to make friends. Join in on the random games that break out or even befriend the free hug/ glomping people. There's plenty of people who would be your friend if you just try. ;D
