Yeah, put me down for Erosannin.
I'll be cosplaying as deidara
I think that you might want to have it on Saturday or Sunday a little after lunch, seeing as from last year's experience (my first time at Fanime, so damn awesome), that most people were there those days, or at least what I saw. By the way, I'll be going as Haku. I might have a Zabuza, but he's currently trying to see if he can even go. Hope to see you there! :)
I am going to be going as Konan xD
HAI THERE! 8D Just registered!! -hella excited-
I'm gonna cosplay as Tobi! ^3^ But I might not come to the gathering, 'cause I have to be with a group....yeah. SO I can't be in charge. o-o;
The name's Myth, by the way! 8D
-needs help finding an Akatsuki coat- :c
Just thought I'd mention that the shonen jump gathering is scheduled for 2pm on Sunday, if that makes a difference to anyone wanting to attend that gathering also...
You're right! :o Okay, so then, what time do you guys plan to do it then? Cuz I want to be able to attend both of these. ... How about 11 on Sunday, or whatever time on Saturday? Does that sound good to you, BrightHeart76? Oh, btw, I can't really help with planning. T.T I'm doing a skit and helping some friends with their cosplays, and making my own. sorry
Next year I hope to go as Deidara when he was fighting Sasuke, before he blows himself up for real!
hey! next year im going as sasuke (not time skip) i hope to see you all there!
Hi!I'm going as Ten-Ten!Put me down!I'm going to be looking for my team mates a lot,so iif anyones going as neji,Lee,Or gai(Guy).Tell me!My names Lulu,For anyone who wants to know!:D On another day,I'm going to be Sakura with long hair.I'm possibly going to have a sign saying something like,'Have you sen my Sasuke-Kun?',I bet theres going to be tons of Sasukes,Narutos,Kakashis,and Sakuras,Thats why I'm being Ten-Ten for the gathering.I'm going as her pink outfit!The first one!:)

I'll be going as Konan again, along with my boyfriend as Pein.I'm not quite sure about the rest of my group, since i have to re-do Tobi's mask and Hidan it being picking and redoing practically his whole costume...But at least those two are confirmed^^

No,I wish I was tenten last year,I was someone from Pokemon(Ditto girl).Now I'm possibly going to be Tenten,or Sakura.I'm most likely going to be TenTen for this though.
I'll definateloy be going. I haven't decided as who yet, though. If I can finiush my wings in time, it'll be Curse Seal 2 Sasuke. If not, either Sasuke (don't know which version yet) or Sai. Oh, and any day or time works for me as long as it doesn't clash with the Kingdom Hearts gathering.
I think Sunday sounds good. That way we can all take part in both the Shonen Jump gathering as well that day. I'll put up a poll today to see what day people think is best.
Sunday (as far as I know at the moment) works well ^^ Saturday is the Bleach gathering and I have a huge group cosplay in that so if there was a conflict with times Id be hitting up the Bleach shoot >.< So Sunday is awesome *thumbs up*

The one and only TenTen was my friend at Last years gathering. I was with her as Sasuke from the First movie. Sad to say I'm not going to make it to the Naruto gathering next year.
well i was temari last year, ya'll might remember me with the BLEACH blond wig, it was shiny. : 3
put me down foooor...anko i suppose, ill be going as both temari AND anko this year but im not entirely sure which one i should do for the group meet, what do you guys think?

Probably Anko, its rare to see a cosplay of her.
Anko could be cool, but Temari is fun too. Which one are you more comfortable in?
First thing I want to say is Thank YOU BrightHeart76 for doing the Naruto Gathering. If you need help with this contact Bart Boy. He has helped in years past. I also wanted to note that this year the Bleach gathering is on Saturday. Bleach and Naruto switch between Sat & Sun every year because so many Naruto peeps cosplay Bleach and visa versa. Your list will get large since this gathering normally gets 80 - 100 peebles attending it.
In years past they have met up at the fountains in front for group photos and later moved to the park for fun, individual, and small group shots.
So this year the Main gathering should be on Sunday and you will want a time between 12 - 3 pm. Might I suggest 12 or 1 PM for the main gathering and then the Naruto peebles who wish to join the "Jump" gathering can come right over to it while the others may want to do fun or individual photos on site or move to the park. If I was running it I would say 12 then move to the park to shoot and that way peeps can be back by 2 for Jump. Only a suggestion.
The only other thing that affects Sunday gatherings is Cosplay Masquerade, which is held Sunday evening. Since it is going to be right across the street this year (where it was prior to last year) it shouldn't affect gatherings until around 5 pm. Cospeeps in the Cosplay Masquerade must check in early so that the event can start on time.
My last note for those who are interested in joining the "Jump" gathering go check out the thread and know that I am working on a little something special again for this year! *B luvs her Jump cospeebles :)
Happy New Year to all Naruto fans :P
BSaphire
I'd like to join! I'm gonna be Naruto, pre-shippuden! Praise me and my Naruto awesomeness! WHOOP! See you there!
Sunday it is. I personally think 12:00 sounds good. How does everyone else feel? I think it makes sure that everyone who want's to be there can make it, but still have time for the other events. Post your ideas, please! :D
I'm sorry for not updating as often the past few weeks. Things have been bad, but they're looking up now. I'll update more often.
Looking forward to hearing from everyone!
Edit: Druix I'm putting you down for Sasuke. Let me know if you decide to go with a specific version or the other character and I'll update it.
alcblueyes I put you down for Anko, let me know if you decide to go with Temari instead.
So, Sunday it is. Yeah, I think that 12 is a good time. OOOHHHHHH!!! I'm so excited! Maybe we can do something cool, like how the Bleach Gathering had that frisbee thing before they started. . . or something along those lines. Please *insert puppy eyes*, can we, can we?
Can't wait to see you there!
Can I join in on it. ^ ^ I might be Anko or...have not clue who else. lol

We're happy to have you join us. :D I'll add your name to the list right now. Let me know if you decide to be someone other then Anko.
Will do, and thanks. X D
Okays, I've got an idea, or four. How about a poll, to see what we'd like to do more of. Since Frisbee is unoriginal, how about something unusual, or cool. I thought about it a bit, and could only come up with a few ideas. T.T But here they are: telephone (or some kind of word game), freeze dance, hide and go seek ninja style, a name game, or some random thing.
I think I'll be going as Itachi or Sasuke. Time-skip Sasuke o' coarse. Not sure which yet, but put me down, I'll meet you guys there. XDDD

theyre both equally as comfortable. both wigs, temari has the fan which is kinda annoying to carry but anko has the fishnets and that makes things very cold if you get my drift.

Dude, I saw you last year! *squeels happily to see someone she saw* BTW I think that Anko would be cooler to do. Just thought I'd add my 2 cents in
is it possible to do it maybe before 12?
if its more inconvenient for everybody, then nevermind..
The problem with an earlier gathering is that it takes a lot of time for people to get ready. Some people have really intricate cosplays or make up that takes more then an hour to get ready. Not everyone is staying at the hotels either, so people coming in to fanime that day would have to be there very early. Combine that with people who stayed up till dawn at the rave or other event that want to sleep in a bit Sunday morning and I don't think anything before noon is going to draw many cosplayers. That's my humble opinion.
Don't get me wrong, if a lot of you guys want to do the gathering earlier we'll do it earlier. I just personally think that noon or 1 o'clock is more likely to get more cosplayers involved. Let me know what you guys think.
Okay, I've decided, I'm going as Shippuuden Sasuke. I know there's gonna be a million of 'em, but I figured that I could make this fun. We don't have a TS Sasuke yet in our group and I think we need one X3
Well, I have another request, I luuuuuuuff yaoi, specifically SasuNaru, so if any Shippuuden Naruto's wanna complete the pair it would be great. Yeah, nothing too personal since we don't really know each other, that would be weird. But stupid little acting things and all, it would be much appreaciated to anyone.
And I'll provide pics of me in my cosplay stuffff when I get it all together. XDDDD

Neither can I! But first, we have to all decide on what to do! But Twister does sound fun... But what about how many people there are? We have to consider everyone. But I really like the sound of Twister. Good idea, emo_avenger!
hmm...maby we should have more than one activity...cuz there will eventually be alot of people.....hmm...since i do LOVE the idea of invading peoples privacy......we can play.......THE POCKY GAME!!!!!! =.="

That might not be a good idea =.=" I know a few people who might freak at that, so maybe something else. But +1 activities does sound like a good idea. Maybe something less invasive?
As for time I'm always gonna be free I just wonder the convention so name a time and I'll be there. ^^
I'll leave the question of time open for debate for the rest of the weekend, then I'm going to lock it down.
If you have an opinion about time, now is the time to share it.
I say if we were going to catch lunch make it noon. XD
i hope we can keep the time at noon. i was hoping to be able to hang with you guys for like 2 hours before changing costume and running over to the loveless gathering. im going to be wearing my cat ears and tail while in my sasuke outfit. totally gonna have pple perv on me! aha!.
i guess.....okay okay okay..., no more invasive games.....how about catch? its pretty fun. aha. or touch footballalthought im pretty sure no one wants to ruin their costume....im just throwing it out. aha.
P.S. dont hesatate to im me on aim if you wanna talk.
I will now be cross-playing Itachi everyone. XD
awsome! now i can have a "darling brother" to annoy! aha.
lol I'll even hang out with you at the con, mainly because I wander around aimlessly by myself I might as well have friends to wander with. XD
foreals! cuz i will be going with my friends but im mainly gonna go to gatherings so i dont think they r gonna stick with me all day! aha. cant wait to hang with you. im totally gonna ask to try on your jacket!
XD I'll let you, my friend let em try on his and I was like. :O
awsome! i always wanted to try on itachis jacket.....cuz i cant make one cuz of the collar and i cant make cloaks if my life depended on it!
lol Yeah he bought his and I'll buy mine since I have no knowledge of sowing. DX
aha. dont worry. buying a costume never makes anyone less of a cosplayer! im buying my bleach costume cuz i dont know if i could ever sew that. aha.
lol Yeah I know, but I was thinking about seeing if any colleges thought it.XD Just to learn not as a profession. XD
yea...like i know how to sew just not the complicated projects. like i could let clothes in and stuff. aha
Yeah that I can do also, my grandma tought me basic stuff. ^^
but thats about all i know too. aha. cuz like...its hard!
Yeah I know. T_T Hey got a myspace?
yea...ill send it to you in a pm!

what's the pocky game?
Hello, all! ;D
I'm going to be cosplaying as Kiba, so put me down, please?
Finally, people to hang with. At the Phoenix Wright gathering last year, everyone kinda stuck to their own groups. So alone. :(
I know a group of Naruto cosplayers... I'll try to get them to come to the gathering.
kat-hime; I don't actually know, so I might be wrong, but I'm under the impression that the Pocky Game is where two people eat a piece of Pocky. Sort if like LAdy and the Tramp but without spaghetti. If I'm right, then I'm up for it. It sounds like a fun opportunity for spiffing yaoi pictures :D
But I could be totally off...
I just updated the "Jump" list and wanted to say thank you Naruto cospeeps for joining our Shonen Jump Gathering too!
Happy New Year & may it bring everyone lots of .... RAMEN!!! :P
@druix and @kat-hime: yes, you're right, that is the pocky game, in a nut shell. 2 people eat a peice of pocky, and try to get to the middle first. if you need a reference, there's a video on youtube

sounds fun, we should play
alryt thats it!!!! im joining in!!! im going as neji(shippuden)!!!
we can play the boat is sinking! OR that newspaper dance game (dont know what its called for the life of me) u know? the one where u have to step on a piece of newspaper (or any other kind of paper ;)) when the music stops... then the paper gets smaller and smaller every time... then anyone who's feet/foot is going outside the paper gets eliminated... blah blah blah...
yes! the pocky game is accepted! and yes...it dose make for great yaoi pictures! aha. i was kinda scared people would hate on me because i suggested this.
Just wanted to pop in and say I'm going to be dressing as Konan ;D Got down the folding for the paper rose for the hair thing today that was a pain but cant wait to see you all there :)
cool! cant wait to see you there either
I don't think any of us can wait!
@ree: omg! I'm so excited! I can't wait to see a Konan cosplayer! It'll be the first I've ever seen!
@emo_avenger: I'm happy the pocky game is accepted! and yes, it does make for awesome yaoi pics! X3
@localuvr: it makes the best yaoi pics!!!!!!!!
@Ree: i cant wait to see your cosplay either
it seems to be able to wait for anything anymore!
I know, sometimes, I stay awake for hours just thinking about it!
aha! foreals! mee too!

same xD all our other non-otaku friends just start to walk away once we get to talking about it
really? my non-otaku friends just end up getting high with us, regardless of the fact.
wow....my non-anime con friends just look at us weird and watches in amusement as we get high. aha.
really? never had that happen to me. but then again, I have some super crazy friends ^ ^
probably! aha. once we get high tho we end up laughing over nothing! aha.
I sure hope we're talking about a natural high. Anyway this discussion has moved well beyond the confines of "Naruto Gathering" Please take the personal chat to PM or another thread. Thank you.
sorry....yes..it was a natural high......
are we going to have a lunch brake or somthing during the gathering?
yeah, it is a natural high.
and like emo_avenger, I'm wondering, what exactly is our gathering going to be: lunch or just a gathering?
How about after the gathering everyone interested can meet somewhere for lunch? We could really confuse the local Jack In The Box if we all show up in cosplay and demand our ninja food! lol. What does everyone think?
that sounds good. but maybe we should see what gatherings are after ours, b/c some might have to run off to another. also, Jack in the Box is one place I'd personally like to avoid. in the forum of Craziest things that happened at Fanime, one person said how there was a shoot out there. So, I'd personally like to avoid Jack in the Box
Then suggest somewhere else. I don't live there so I don't know what's close and I just picked Jack In The Box because I was at my local Jack In The Box today.
hmmm....mc donalds? idk....i have only been down there twice....once for fanime for a day and the other was christmas in the park......
so are we all going as a group to where ever we decide to eat?
Well, let's see...walking distance from the Con, I know we could get to
Peggy Sue's
Johnny Rockets (those two are virtually the same, though)
Jack in the Box
McDonald's
Quizzno's
Pizza My Heart
La Vic's (mexican food, I think...)
and I think that might be about it? Well, that's all I can think of off the top of my head, anyway.......and I'm likin' this lunch idea, since the gathering's midday anyways.

Jack in the Box
McDonald's
Quizzno's
Pizza My Heart
La Vic's (mexican food, I think...)
and I think that might be about it? Well, that's all I can think of off the top of my head, anyway.......and I'm likin' this lunch idea, since the gathering's midday anyways.
are the first two diners? they sound like it...maby mc donalds would be good......
Yeah, they are diners. Pretty good food, but it's the basic burgers-and-fries kinda deal. For the record, though, Johnny Rocket's has a lot more space, so if we did one of those two, that'd be the better choice. Cost about the same, too. Although I'm thinking you're right, a fast food place would probably be best, especially since most people will probably be anxious to get back to the con.
A lot of us are doing the Jump gathering as well. It's at 2 (I think, I'll have to double check that). So if we do a lunch it'll have to be pretty close and pretty fast. McDonalds is fine by me.
This year, I'm finally doing a Naruto costume so if you have room for a Choji, I'll be there!

How long do gatherings usually last, anyway? The only one I've ever been to was our makeshift Death Note one last year....Basically, I really want to be a Sasuke, but then I'm also considering Sai....would I have enough time to change during the gathering? Or should I stick with just one of them?
Maybe I'll consider joining in, I'll be Pre-Shippuuden Naruto.

I was actually wondering the same thing...
and (total gathering noob),
but what do you usually do at gatherings? besides do the photoshoots and play games xD
Oh, and the time etc. is perfect since other gatherings are goingto happen throughout the day too xD 12 is perfect.

Gatherings can last usually up to an hour though they could sometimes go longer. It is basically just an opportunity to get pictures with other cosplayers of the same show or game and to just hang out with people with the same interest ya know?
Photoshoots branch off into millions of things and ya end up talking with a lot of people, its loads of fun. I usually end up walking away with a larger group then I came with just because of meeting others.
Time wise: noon or 1 works for me. There are no other gatherings that I'm attending set for that day xD
With the game thing im new to this gathering thing but it thought it might be fun and a ice breaker to bring some songs we all know the dances to and paly them and just be silly (for example: makarana, chicken dance, time warp, and carmal dance) I have access to a i pod and a protible docking station but i didnt know if it was to silly of a idea. please let me know what you think :)

Hi Guys!
I updated the first page with everyone's cosplay. Let me know if anything changes or I put you under the wrong character.
As of right now we have 31 cosplayers in the list. I'm sure we'll at least double that number by the time fanime comes around. This is going to be fun to meet everyone!

I doubt there'd really be enough time to change during the gathering. Sorry.
However, if you'd like to cosplay as both at a gathering there is a solution. Come to the Naruto gathering at noon as one of your cosplays then when we're done you can go change and be the other cosplay for the Shonen Jump Gathering at 2:00, it also includes Naruto characters. Go to this thread for more information on the Shonen Jump Gathering. http://forums.fanime.com/index.php/topic,4426.0.html
We're happy to have you!
I would love to do the Caramell dance, and maybe the Hare Hare Yukai if I can memorize it by then. :D This is my first ever, seriously, first FanimeCon. o-o;
I just got my ceramic Tobi mask in the mail today!!1 < 333 It's so gorgeous. o3o;

i wasn't put down for Pre-Shippuden Hinata
I know everyone loves taking pics at Fanime and I was wondering if we were all just going to get together and take pictures right after we meet or later on. I know Sasuke would love to get some interesting pictures in. [Expecially SasuNaru <3] >3
Should we set something up to regulate all this, or maybe a free-for-all would be best...any thoughts?
I think that we all take pics kinda like a free for all at the gatering and the other stuff is just for fun and to get to know others but i allways thought the gatering was mainly for the pictures please tell me if im worng
hey!If I go on that day,I'll probably bbrng my drawing book!So I was thinking I should write big on it saying something like, "NARUTO GATHERING --->".That might attract more people.How does that sound^.'?
My friend and I will go as Naruto and Sasuke (except um... we'll be lolita-esque versions. Yup. Doesn't make sense. Just for fun~~~ She already gave me the concept sketches and we have everything to start making it so I'm stuck with it =X)
Hopefully people don't kill us for not actually being from the manga/anime kthxbai. XD

Hello BrightHeart76,
FanimeCon 2008 will be my second time being overwhelmed by the sheer number of Cosplayers. The first time I went to FanimeCon was when it was in Santa Clara(near Great America). I still clearly remember people around the Con holding up makeshift signs for the "Masquerade". So anyways, I have my cosplay ready for a cloaked Masked Anbu from the Chunin exam finals. May I join the Naruto Gathering even though my cosplay is not Officialy listed ???
P.S. How exactly do I set an image as my avatar?

Ok main critique the bows in back kinda to me make it look a little slrmoon like not that thats bad just not the series your going for and the other issue i have with the bow is arent but bows orichimarus thing???
well here are some picks of some dress's i think if you changed the colors to more like orange and blue for naruto and wite and blue for saske whould work and still keep the esence you were getting with the bow but not having the bow:

Hi Everyone! We're updated again, and color coded too. Let me know if I missed anyone or catagorized them the wrong way. :)
A couple comments.
redrose3164: I think it's AMAZING that you're being creative with your cosplays. I'm looking foward to seeing them at the gathering. :D
Narutotaku: Of course you're more than welcome! We're happy to have you. And I think those games sound fun. Let's see what everyone else thinks. ;D
luluuxduplica1223: A sign would be great. BShaphire and the fanime staff are awesome at posting the gatherings at the convention. But an extra sign can't hurt. If you'd like to make a sign I think it would be nothing but good.
Myth: YAY! I'm glad you got your mask. I'm sure it's too cool. I took you off the "maybe" list, I'm just going to hope you make it with your cool new mask. 8)
Sorry if I missed anybody. This looks to be the beginings of a great fanime and a fun gathering.

thank you =) Though I can't take all the credit. I just pitched some of the concept ideas with my friend. She did more of the planning.
Konychiwa BrightHeart76,
I'm not clear about the "L=Same". I understand the MP= Fountains in front. Is the location the Hilton, Marriot, or San Jose McEnery Convention Center main entrance ???
"L=Same" just means that the location (L) of the gathering is the same as the meeting place (MP). The fountains are infront of the convention center, trust me you can't miss them.
Does that help? If not let me know and we'll work out a system to make sure everyone who wants to go the gathering can find it. Worst case I could get a few people to wander around the convention center starting half an hour before the gathering with signs reading "Follow me to the Naruto Gathering" or something like that. But honestly, I think everyone will be able to find it. ;D

Domoarigato BrightHeart76,
Now I'm crystal clear about the exact location of the Naruto Gathering. BTW In my opinion I think it would be totally cool to have Guides(in costume) for the Naruto Gathering 2008. Perhaps with signs that display in Orange letters"Official Naruto Gathering follow sign" I'd suggest a minimum of 3 Gathering Guides(GG) . (1) GG starts Naruto gathering train in Marriott, (2) GG starts Naruto gathering train in Hilton, (3) GG starts Naruto gathering train in Dealer Market. Next stop Naruto gathering choo choooo! :D
P.S.Everyone please post your opinions about GG's for Naruto Gathering 2008.
Anyone know a good place to get the green jump suit? I was ANBU Rock Lee last Fanime and I didn't have the green jumpsuit. Preferably a place in Denver, Colorado if anyone in this thread lives near or in Denver. xD Internet purchases hate me.
Hello ovtrlan,
I suggest searching GOOGLE for a store in Denver that sells green jumpsuits. i.e."Denver, CO rock lee costume" You could also search almost anything on amazon.com(Don't worry you can pay with check or money order, just follow easy mail instructions on order conformation e-mail). I also suggest a red hidden leaf belt(search Rock Lee headband or cosplay). Hope this helps you "Hope to be better than you were yesterday."(Rock Lee Shippudden)

Konychiwa otaku elite and all sub-species of anime/manga fan (read or watch Genshiken) of Naruto Gathering 2008,
In order to confirm a game(that's cosplay friendly) before May, 2008 I suggest a poll of all games posted in this thread. What's your thoughts for a gathering game Poll BrightHeart76 ???

The problem with a poll is that it limits you to just one vote. I feel like in the long run it can alter the results because people who like 2 or more games might not vote, or a slightly less popular game might totally tank in a poll because everyone votes for an obvious favorite. Twister is a standard for the Naruto gathering so I say we should definately have Twister. Some of the other games are a little more...edgy. Open debate people should talk about what they want to do and what they hope for / expect from this gathering.
All in all this is everyone's gathering, I'm just the originator of the thread. If you guys want a poll, it shall be done. If you think Twister is lame, then let's not do it. Speak up and let your voices be heard! ;D
Personally, I'm old (31) so the really racy games (i.e. the pocky game) are just not my thing. I am, however, working on putting together a Naruto Bingo game. I'd love to know if anyone is interested in playing. It doesn't have to be a gathering thing, just a game people can play during fanime. Let me know in post or PM if you like it or hate it.
Your opinions are valuable. So post and let's make this an awesome gathering!
Konychiwa BrightHeart76,
I think Naruto Bingo would be cool if the prizes were officially liscensed(i.e. GE, Viz Media) or imported Naruto merchandise. Pocky & Almond Crush Pocky would also make Naruto Bingo totally fun, "Believe it"(Uzumaki Naruto future Hokage) 8)

Due to the costumes of the other people in my group, there's a 99% chance I'm going to be Sasuke at the gathering, but I WILL be being Sai during Fanime. I'd be more than happy to take pictures with you if you like.
We're updated again!
I included a couple of questions to get people to post ideas and opinions about Games and or Lunch. Please post ideas and opinions about these topics.
I must be blind but I see no Gaara! I am coming as Kazekage Gaara - and I'd love to join a TJ group for the photos.

Konychiwa fragiledreamer,
What exactly is a "TJ group" ???
Konychiwa Otaku elite and all sub-species of anime/manga fan,
I suggest that the Naruto Gathering gets lunch at: 1) any place that serves ramen(Soba or Udon) or 2) the nearest Japanese to-go reasturant. The San Jose McEnery Convention Center is dontown so, there's problably food to-go reasturants on almost every block. BTW San Jose is most likely the 2nd biggest city in the entire Bay Area.
P.S. Everyone attending the Naruto Gathering please let me know what you think about my suggestion for lunch.
its probably best that a certain amount of each group go and eat somewhere cuz not one restruant can hold all of the naruto cosplayers. i suggest look up possibilities to go to and give options to everyone.

yea its probably going to happened.
Just finished my TJ Shika~
will be there as that~
I have black version Sasuke too, but don't felt like bringing it cuz Sasuke is gay~ =)
so ya~ looking for an Ino/Temari =P
I vote for freeze tag as the game we play! ^^
As for the games, I would like to see either Twister or Freeze Tag. You can never beat the classics. 8)
Oh! And I'm trying to get everyone's opinion on this:
http://forums.fanime.com/index.php/topic,8866.0.html
Let me know what you think, please! :D
MidnightRoseBud you're link doesn't work. What are you trying to get an opinion about?
I definitely would love to play freeze tag~! I haven't played that since elementary days. =) and that can involve a lot of people at once. :3
For lunch, I think people should just branch out on their own if they wanna eat out. I'm probably gonna go with my friend to eat and if I meet some people at the gathering, we can all go eat out together. ^_^
I like the idea of Bingo.
As for Lunch, I think a picnic would be good. We could branch out to get food and then meet up again to eat together.
Konychiwa Otaku elite and all sub-species of anime/manga fan(Genshiken),
In order to make Freeze Tag more interesting I suggest that a 3-person(or 4-person like Shippudden) squad be it. In my opinion I think it'd be cool to see everyone vs. three. We could all draw sticks and the people w/three short sticks are "It". Then after the 1st round the last three (or four) that froze are it. This will be good way to practice team work(i.e. how to defrost someone and keep your self away from the squad that's "It".
P.S. What does everyone think about my idea for Freeze Tag(Naruto style)!?

In order to make Freeze Tag more interesting I suggest that a 3-person(or 4-person like Shippudden) squad be it. In my opinion I think it'd be cool to see everyone vs. three. We could all draw sticks and the people w/three short sticks are "It". Then after the 1st round the last three (or four) that froze are it. This will be good way to practice team work(i.e. how to defrost someone and keep your self away from the squad that's "It".
P.S. What does everyone think about my idea for Freeze Tag(Naruto style)!?
(random: I love Genshiken! One of my favorite manga out there because it's so true to otaku lifestyle XD It hits right at home. =3)
I really like your idea for Freeze Tag: Naruto-style. I dunno about the point of just a 3-person squad as "it" since it depends on how many people are playing. We might have a LOT of people who wanna play so it depends who's interested. Most likely though, it'll probably suffice.
Would there be rules like "You can only unfreeze your own 3-person squad" because then it would make the game more challenging. If you could unfreeze whoever, the people who are "it" would be "it" for a long time.
Konychiwa Otaku elite and all sub-species of anime/manga fan(Genshiken),
Domoarigato redroses3164. I think the rule you thought of would make Freeze Tag: Naruto-Style even more fun&interesting. I have sent a PM to BrightHeart76 about establishing rules for Freeze Tag: (Naruto-Style). I have another Rule) The squad that's "It" can only freeze someone by making contact with hand(s).
P.S. Does anyone else have any rules for Freeze Tag: ( Naruto-Style ) ???
Naruto Freeze Tag is fine by me. Narutotaku is the go to guy for rules and organization for it. ;D
I think I'm also going to do Naruto Bingo that morning. I'll contact the table gaming people to see if we can use a table in the gaming room that morning. It'll be a nice way for people to meet up before the gathering and then we can head out in a group for the gathering (or leave early to join Freeze Tag).
I guess that leaves lunch up in the air. Personally I think everyone should get / bring their own lunch and we can all meet up somewhere for a picnic kind of thing. Is there a park near the convention center?
Obviously it's not required that you go to the picnic or play the games if you go to gathering, just another way to extend the fun. :D
PS I'll update the cosplay list today or tomorrow. I will probably not be able to update next week because I'm moving into my new apartment a week from today (YAY!)
PPS Narutotaku, of COURSE I've watched Genshiken! LOL, it's awesome! And thank you for being so proactive in helping make the gathering a fun event this year. ;D

Naruto Bingo is a GO!! I just spoke with the Department Head of Table Top Gaming and we have tables for Naruto Bingo starting at 11:00 and ending at Noon on the day of the gathering!
There WILL be prizes (at least for the first few rounds, time and funds will tell how many rounds I'll be able to get prizes for...anyone who can provide extra prizes is forever my hero). Please let me know if you are definately going to participate so that I can keep Table Top Gaming informed.

You say that now, but you do realize that you're just making yourself a bigger target, right?
um im still gonna be neji
Last cosplay update 'till after I move. We're definately starting to fill out the cast. YAY! The more the merrier. ;D
So far we have two games planned for the official gathering. Is anyone still interested in Twister? If so someone needs to bring their Twister game.
I know I keep saying it, but I really think this is going to be a GREAT gathering! Looking forward to it. ;D
Bingo? How exactly will that work? The only kind of Bingo I can think up is when you have the letters of BINGO for each column and then the numbers that correspond to their specific columns.
I don't get how you're making it Naruto-related. Just curious. =)
Anyway, have fun moving to your new place BrightHeart!
(About Twister, not a big fan of that game. Just my opinion though.)
Instead of B-I-N-G-O it's Leaf, Sand, Cloud, Sound and Akatsuki and instead of numbers it's different characters and items from the show. For example instead of B-5 I might call Leaf-Tsunade. Does that make sense? It's a silly difference, but it's fun. I'm making the boards myself so it'll be original, let me know if there are any characters or items people want included.
As far as Twister goes I only include it because it is a tradition for some Naruto Cosplayers and I hate to rain on traditions.
what do you do at naruto gatherings? can you explain to me because i dont really get it? oh yea and my friend is going as shippuden shino he doesnt have an account on the forums though.

My friend's sn on these forums is loveoflolita. She's cosplaying as lolita-style
Naruto Naruko. I dunno if she'll ever post (she just made the screen name for the forums) but you can list her as loveoflolita instead of "Friend" on the cosplayers list.

i'm going as temari (shippuuden version). it will be my first cosplay event!
Konychiwa Otaku Elite and all sub-species of anime/manga fan(Genshiken),
I'm thinking that it would be best to start Freeze Tag(N.S.) around 12:15PM or 12:30PM(i.e. Kakkashi Hatake cosplayers) . To start off everyone will need to form a 3-person squad. Then one person from each squad will draw a stick to determine which squad is "It" for Round One. The squad that draws the short stick is "It". Here are the rules I have so far for Freeze Tag: Naruto-Style. 1) A 3-person squad will be it. 2) After Round One the last three people that froze will be it. 3) The squad that is "It" can ONLY freeze people by tagging them with hand(s). 4) Players can ONLY be defrosted by someone in their squad.
P.S Does anyone have any suggestions about the current Rules or ideas for new rules?
P.P.S Should Naruto Freeze Tag be played before or after Lunch ???

BEFORE lunch so that we wont be running around full of ramen errr i mean food in our stomachs. now when u say a 3 person squad u mean any type any mixture? cuz if thats the case would it possible to have a 3 person squad of naruto, hinata, and hinata? ^^'''
Quote from: Narutotaku on February 27, 2008, 01:55:13 AM
Naruto Freeze Tag Questions
I agree with clawmaster. I wouldn't want to run around with my stomach full because that will cause not-so-fun stomachaches.
I also think that 3 person squads should be any kind of mixture because it would be too difficult to find perfect squads that matched the anime/manga. Not everyone will want to play freeze tag so we may not have enough people to match the actual squads.
If all your members are frozen (and there is no one to defrost them since they all are frozen), would that cause that squad to be automatically it?
Also for rule "2) After Round One the last three people that froze will be it." So if there's three people frozen, they're automatically it? But they might not be in the same squad so wouldn't that cause some confusion? I don't know how you'd fix this rule though.

Konychiwa Otaku Elite and all sub-species of manga/anime fan(Genshiken),
I understand that it will be very difficult to form 3-person squads from the orginal manga or the anime with a limited amount of players for Naruto Feeze Tag. All players will be able to form any mix squad as long as it's only a 3-person squad. I will revise Rule 2). Now this is rule 2) After Round One the last player that froze will be "IT" with their squad in the next round. Everyone is most likely going to play Naruto Freeze Tag on an empty stomach. I suggest that all players bring a bottle of water so that they can remain hydrated.
*posting for great justice, Naruto thread shall not be on the second page!* XD
Does Naruto Freeze Tag have timed rounds? Just confirming.
Wahoo I'm going to JoAnn's tomorrow to buy fabric for me and my friend's lolita stuff =) Tomorrow shall be Cosplay Work Day!
Konychiwa Otaku Elite and all subspecies of manga/anime fan(Genshiken),
I haven't decided whether each Round of Naruto Freeze Tag will be timed yet. In order to make sure that people who planed to attending the Shonen Jump gathering are not late, I or BrightHeart76(AKA Tsunade) will give players a heads-up alert around 1:30pm. This should give cosplayers enough time to take a water-break and walk or Power walk to the fountains in front of the Hilton side.
PS Have fun redroses3164 & friend on your "Cosplay Work Day"!
PPS I suggest listening to Anime or J-pop sound tracks(i.e. Genshiken O.S.T.) to keep inspired & motivated while you create your original cosplay.

I'm trying not to sound like a prick but wouldn't that be too early to start Naruto Freeze Tag? Usually it takes a while for everyone to get at the gathering and then to take pictures. Plus, there's the group shots people like to take when ya group all the Narutos together and Sasukes, etc. Sorry if that sounded a bit mean! It's hard to word things online without sounding like that otherwise.

Lessee... the only things I can think up that relates to Kakashi is the henohenomoheji symbol that the dogs he summons wear and the Icha Icha book series stuff. So the henohenomoheji symbol or Icha Icha's circle with a slash through it symbol can be used.
Linkage to symbols:

Now that I remember, he did say he was going to use something like a Sharingian ball or some, or just leave cain as is.
Sorry I don't have a picture yet! I still have to make my head band and my scarf and draw the lines on my gloves and then I should be pretty set so this weekend I'll probably be sewing a lot so We'll see if I can get pics soon!
But yeah...I'm actually looking forward to 'Catch the Barrel' game ^^ and for freeze tag!!!!!!!!! It's going to be awesome! But we should play before lunch because I'm leaving early to go to the GaiaOnline gathering so that would be best!
Hope everyone is doing well on their cosplays! ^^
I'll Make Its As Itachi
My wig came in the mail today for Sasuke Sasuko. =) Now my friend is gonna style it and I can't wait to see how it'll turn out. ;D
My friend's wig came today too. It looks really funky on her XD She'll have to straighten out some parts of it since it's a bit too curly.
Bah I'm making very minimal progress on this cosplay. I've just finished patterns so far [for the main dress part]. This weekend I'll probably start the mock up versions of the dresses and when done, actually start cutting and sewing the good fabric.
Hi All. I've updated the cosplay list. Something tells me I've made a mistake, but I can't figure out what it is. Let me know if you see something wrong. :)
Freeze Tag looks like it's coming along nicely. Thank you for all of your hard work. Bingo is going smoothly as well so far.
Please read the first post as I've updated a lot of information.
If you know someone who plans to cosplay as anyone Naruto please talk to them about coming to the gathering. I'd love to see lot and LOTS of Naruto cosplayers at the gathering. ;D
I remember two years ago the guy who was in charge of the Naruto gathering had a loudspeaker where they'd announce each village first. So first was Leaf, then Sand, etc. The next groups were random ones like Akatsuki. Then people cosplaying the same character with all kinds of variations of that character were gathered. When the person wanted to change the group, they'd do a countdown starting from ten. Then they'd switch to the next group. You can announce what group goes next with the loudspeaker. =)
Example of how they did it:
http://www.flickr.com/photos/23118643@N04/sets/72157604004200770/
So from my pictures, you can see how they organized it.
Hey BrightHeart, just thought I'd give a heads up. On cosplay.com, there's a thread for the Naruto gathering someone started and a user took the time and got who's doing what character like what you are doing except only dealing with the cosplay.com people. Do you want that list because the post is right here:
http://www.cosplay.com/showpost.php?p=2315322&postcount=54
I don't know if ya wanted to add that to the list or not (and to indicate that it's from cosplay.com usernames and not fanime forums username).
[I posted on there too except my username over there is RedRoses]
Thank you for the update! I posted on the site and asked anyone who would like to be included on this list to e-mail me and I'll add them. Wow! We really are going to have A LOT of cosplayers! YAY!!
I'll come by to take pics, but to be in it, I'll try next year.
Mr manly here will be going as haku (crossplaying a girl whos really a guy?!?)@_@
Lonelykangta I added you to the list. Look forward to seeing you there. ;D

Man, I'm getting no where compared to you. XD *coughs*
Hi guys. Well no updates to be made to the list this week. Remember to let any friends who are cosplaying for Naruto know about the gathering. I'm hoping to see a really big group this year. :D
Let me know if there's anything I should add or change. We're coming closer to Fanime every day! ;D

Almost 60 cosplayers signed up already! :o Wow!! We still have a few months to go, I think this gathering is really going to be fantastic! ;D
How is the planning for Freeze Tag coming along?
Satoshi-kun, I think you should come to the gatering! It'll be fun to "ninja-fie" a pokemon trainer. I think I could find and Akatsuki member who'd let you borrow their coat for a minute...heck maybe even my crazy Tsunade jacket.
Let's keep it going guys!
So everything is ordered and 61 days tell im there i so cant wait getting the warm and fuzzy feelings anyone eles?
yea we are waiting. as far as warm and fuzzy feelings.....yea should be a warm welcome...especially if i hug hinata ^^ (pst pst shippduen naruto cosplayer ^^)

Oh crap there's only THAT MANY DAYS LEFT!? I gotta go work now. I've been focused on studying for AP tests that cosplaying has slipped my mind. Time to take a break from studying! *goes off to sew*
Yay! I'm two steps closer to my female Choji cosplay!!!!!
I made Choji's headband and I'm working on the gloves! (I'm not wrapping my fingers, just putting the lines on a white pair of gloves)
Next task: The Scarf (BTW does anyone have any ideas on how to make Choji's white scarf girly? (NOT PINK))

Have you thought about using a silky type material and maybe adding some fringe at the bottom. More like a silk aviators scarf?
Konichiwa Otaku Elite and all subspecies of manga/anime fan(Genshiken),
I'm pleased to announce that I plan on donating five items for Naruto-style BINGO(Hosted & created by BrightHeart76 AKA Tsunade). It will be located at the table-top gaming room 11:00AM Sunday 5/25/2008. I'm also thinking about making laminated "It" signs for Naruto freeze tag.
Here are the updated Rules for Naruto Freeze Tag: 1)A 3-person squad will be "It". 2)After round one the last person to freeze will be "It" with their squad next round. 3)The squad that's "It" can only freeze players with their hand(s). 4)Players can only be defrosted by someone in their squad.
PS Is any one else willing to donate something(hopefully Naruto themed) for Naruto BINGO prizes?

I might do that but I was thinking about using a material that will be a bit stiffer so it stays up around my neck but I like the fringe idea, thanks BrightHeart!

Like these except bigger:

Actually, it'd be really cute if you had a necklace and/or bracelet of these charm things because well... Choji likes his food. XD
That's true with the food charms or I can get patches with food on them and sew them on. I'm not sure yet! *sweatdrop*
I'll be there as manga!Karin =D

Updated again. We are now officially over 60 cosplayers! This is going to be HUGE! FANTASTIC!
Thank you to Narutotaku and Ree for donating prizes for Naruto Bingo, you are AWESOME. All of the really detailed work is done for the game, just a few more steps, I think you guys will enjoy it.
Narutotaku, awesome work orgainizing freeze tag. I'm hoping to laminate the bingo cards. Let me know if you need me to laminate your "IT" signs as well.
Do we still want to have some people walk around the convention area with a "follow me to the official Naruto gathering" signs? If so, any volunteers?
As a final note MisterE has been puting together a group to do the caramelldansen dance during fanime. It is open to all attendee's and will happen during our gathering. It should be pretty quick and I think it would be a hoot to see a bunch of Narutards (I say that with love) doing the caramelldansen. If you're comfortable taking part sign up on his link and practice your crazy caramelldansen dance. I WILL be taking part. ;D
I'm looking more and more forward to this gathering. I think we're going to have a great time.

I'm not sure about the Iruka costume 'cause she's making it herself but I only have the drawn pictures for Sasuke's and Naruto's costume including with a list of clothing so it's only a drawing. I'm starting to make the Naruto costume.

WOOT FOR ALL DANCING :)
Then you shoudl join my gathering.
47 Days till Fanime! Is everyone ready? I spent most of the day talking to Ree making sure that we are all set to go.
No new cosplayers this week, but we still have a really great list going!
Did we come to any conclusions about lunch? It's coming down to crunch time, we should probably decide.
Freeze Tag looks like it's going to go off well.
Caramelldansen, I'm hoping happens closer to 12:30 so we have a good chance to do the gathering and pictures before the dancing starts. That's up to MisterE.
Bingo just needs to be printed. I even got a few more prizes this week.
I think this is going to be fantastic! Let me know if anyone has any ideas, concerns, or needs any help.
Yes pictures are a go before, I want a BIG group photo of all dancers!
I am going as sakura. No doubt. I am bring my yodanime plushie.
I thinking of getting a wig for my Naruto costume. Is that wise or should I dye and spike my hair?
EDIT: Never mind, I already order a wig.
Updated for the week. Only 41 days to go, I'll see everyone in just a little over a month!
Please come to BINGO, it's going to be fun and I've put an awful lot of work into the boards. I'll also have prizes!
FreezeTag looks good, but do we know where it's going to be? The area will be pretty full (last I counted there are 6 groups at the fountains during the gathering).
Also, if you follow this link http://forums.fanime.com/index.php/topic,2223.msg230491.html#msg230491 you'll see that there is a LOT of Naruto being shown this year. Make sure to stop by and watch it!
Yay! Fanime is almost here! Woohoo!!

woah.......awsomness! gah only 40 days away! the anticaption is driving me insane!
Yay! Fanime is almost here! Woohoo!!
Well I'm new to the forums so I'll start off by saying hello. Well this is gonna be my first cosplay event so I will do my best to finish up my costume(it's almost done w00t!!!)...why do I have the feeling I forgot something ???...o yea my costume, I'll be going as Kisame...all I need is to find or make the sword. If you guys have links to sites that sell it or help make it, it will be greatly appreciated even though my back-up plan was to get Cloud's Buster Sword which me & my friend were gonna work on it if it comes down to buying it. But thanks if you help me out & just a head's up to everyone, my girlfriend's cosplaying as SnJ Naruto, so if you see a Kisame with a SnJ Naruto then you know it's me lol(she's gonna make an account later on when I go over to her house).
I'm thinking about Naruto Cosplay Chess. Anyone else? :D There's plenty of space.

you could not believe how excited I am for fanime! >< i could walk in my naruto costume at my campus full of excitement! dattebayo! ok maybe not that but yea i am pretty excited! cant wait to see everyone there!
Yeah...I really REALLY need to get going on my detailed stuff for Choji! I've been kinda busy....and I just found out I didn't make it into a play T_T But that just means I have more time for cosplay right?
I can't WAIT until Fanime!!!!!!! *squeals* My boyfriend keeps talking about staying up all night at the raves and stuff and I'm like....when are we going to sleep?! ???
So, when do you guys who have gone in the past typically sleep?

well usually when that happens to me its probably when I got to my friends lan parties where the #1 rule is to not sleep or you will be a open target for anything! usually after these lan parties I sleep the next day. of course the day after somebody gets penis written on his forhead xD
Hi, everyone! First time Fanime con-goer here. It'll be my first con out of my own country, actually. Haha! My friend Miguel and I hope to join you guys on Sunday! :)
I'll definitely be there as Naruto, but I'm trying to decide between the Shippuuden or Shippu! Konoha Gakuen Den versions.
Miguel will be Shipuuden Sasuke (most likely the white gi version, but he's bringing the vest as well).
I really enjoy taking pictures and hope to get lots of shots of everyone, but I have to ask - is it safe to carry a DSLR around Fanime? If not, I could just stuff a small digicam in my pocket, but the quality won't quite be the same.
You can put me down for Shippuden Shino, that sexy beast. ;D

/stalker mode
Anyways... about the DSLR dilemma. Fanime in general is pretty safe so just stick with normal rules you'd follow if you were to bring something expensive to any public area. Watch your stuff carefully and don't just leave it lying around. If you have it with you and someone wants to take your picture, either have a friend hold it or if you trust the person who wants to take your picture hold the DSLR.

In other mini-news:
I have got to work on cosplay stuff right now x_X I'm pretty much dead if I don't work this weekend. I'm taking a break from studying AP stuff to work on cosplay. Off I go now. Hopefully. If I don't get distracted...
Yeah, that's me. :D Thank you so much! (Oh, cool. If you ever visit the Philippines, you may want to catch one of the cons here. :))
That's great! I'll be bringing it along, then! Do people really tend to, like... Tackle cosplayers randomly? People on dA have been warning me about glompers, and I'm concerned about getting tackled with my camera hanging around my neck. XD
Looking forward to meeting everyone! Is there anything I need to bring to the gathering? Sorry, I've never been part of anything quite like this, haha.

Welcome! Yay! More cosplayers!
Glomping is a huge subject of debate. The general agreement is that glompers should ask first. However, a few people do tackle glomp without permission. It's never happened to me, but I've seen it happen to other people. Just watch the people around you and be prepared to shout a firm "NO!" if you see someone running toward you looking like they intend to glomp you.
Since you've posted I feel confident most of our group will know to watch for someone with expensive equipment and not glomp them. However, please be aware this will be a HUGE group and not everyone reads the forums.
I'm so glad your joining us though! Is that you cosplaying in your avatar? Cause that looks amazing.
@ BrightHeart76: Whoa, my friend and I will make sure to watch each other's backs, then!
And yeah, that's me in my avatar. :) I'm contemplating attending the gathering as Shippuuden Naruto then maybe going to the Black & White Ball in the Konoha Gakuen uniform. I hope it looks formal enough, haha!

And yeah, that's me in my avatar. :) I'm contemplating attending the gathering as Shippuuden Naruto then maybe going to the Black & White Ball in the Konoha Gakuen uniform. I hope it looks formal enough, haha!
it really looks good. your are a really good naruto cosplayer ^^b. better then i am but should be kewl to see u there at the gathering!
68 cosplayers on the list! You guys rock! ;D
I've updated the list it looks great. I talk about this gather at work alot. I'm so proud to be involved with such great people in such a fun gathering. I think some of my coworkers and students are jealous of us for doing this stuff. ;)
Zenorith - I'm sorry I don't know how to make that sword. Have you tried posting in the sewing support area? You can get some good help there. Good luck!
Is the game of Naruto chess official? If so let me know when and where so I can post it in the first post. I can't take part because I have a lot of events going on. But I'd love to stop by and cheer on the good guys. If we don't have enough people (36 required) should we talk to another group and see about setting up a Naruto vs Some other anime chess game? (Seriously Maybe Naruto vs. One Piece....Ninjas vs. Pirates on the chess board. lol)
Just 34 days until fanime. By the time I post again we'll have less then a month to go! It's crunch time! Make sure you're working on your cosplays! Stay healthy! I'll see y'all soon! ;D
Thanks, I'll go post my problem there & I can't wait for Fanime!
If my mother is fufilling her promise (she should! That A in Biology was NOT EASY), I'm going as GothicLolita Sakura.
I'll be there with a small group of friends that decided to watch me cosplay by myself. :[

That would be great. :] Gothic loli team seven! Now I'm off to find a pink wig. It's so hard to find a decent shop that provides pink wigs in san jose. :/
I'm all set, I'm done getting my outfit and I got a wig.

I'll be going to the convention as Shippuden Sasuke, so I might stop by, but may I ask what "MP" and "L" stand for?
MP = Meeting Place
L = Location of the gathering
Hope to see you there! ;D
Sorry for the double post.
FYI the Carameldansen gathering is now scheduled BEFORE our gathering at 11:30. Sorry to say that means I'll miss it because I'll be running Naruto BINGO. Please let MisterE know if you'll be joining the Carameldansen group.
How are events looking?
BINGO is done.
Where are we with Freeze Tag? Do we have a location yet?
Is Chess a go? Still being debated?
I think lunch is officially off. Too much going on, I think we'll all break and get food on our own. Correct me if I'm wrong.
Anything else that I'm missing?
I'll update the cosplay list this weekend. ;D
Less then a month to go guys! (a month from right now I plan to be knee deep in fanime fun! YAHOO!)
i will be attending as sai!!! ;D
Everything is getting worked out with the head of the Gathering with my Caramelldansen Gathering lets all hope!
71 cosplayer on the board! Wow! This is gonna rock. ;D

I'm excited to see everyone there! Let's keep the conversations and preparations going.

at the gathering will we be posing for pictures? if so will this include yaoi/yuri pics?

Thats basically what the gatherings are for. I believe "Yaoi" and "Yuri" is allowed....just dont do anything to get yourself kicked outta the con.
Naruto chess. We've been approached by table top gaming to take part. I'm taking this as a personal challenge. Let's do this!
We can have the board at around 5:00 Sunday afternoon. That gives everyone a chance to do the gatherings, eat and relax a little bit before the game. It's also 2 hours before Black and White ball, I'm not sure how it fits in with the Music Festival, but I think time will be fine.
This should be a blast! Who wants to join in? Also, I stink at chess, so someone else should probably lead the game. (I'm about as likely to ask someone to king me as I am to capture their Queen). Who wants to lead? (I'm looking in clawmasters general direction...hint hint)
Post here, or PM me if you want to be included. We need a lot of people, so lets do it!
I'm cool to be part of it if it doesn't
contrast with the an' cafe concert
*stares at first post again*

A friendly reminder....STOP READING THE FORUMS AND FINISH YOUR COSPLAYS! lol...unless you're already done. ;D
Welp crap. I read the forums when I'm:
a) Taking a break from studying
b) Avoiding studying
c) Too lazy to work on cosplay stuff
d) All of the above.
XD
I'm pretty much getting stuff done. I finished the top portion of my friend's dress basically (except sleeves) and I'm working on mine. I got my skirt and pannier patterns ready to go when I wanna work on them.
I'll be able to finish
religiously once AP testing is over (zOMG one week and then it's here D= Crappity crap CRAP!)
Once May 14th is over (that's my last AP test) I will only focus on some SAT subject tests (in June) and cosplay. That'll be my life. ;D Cosplay shall be done gosh darn it. And it will be GREAT and proper and STUFF!

That's one reason for gatherings :) That and to meet people who like the same series as you do. Don't worry; it's all fun and games :D Um... if you want to take yaoi/yuri pics, then go ahead.
Redrose, I hope you know I meant that as a silly joke for people who are procrastinating, not people who are honestly busy. Good luck with your studies. I'm sure you'll do fine.
Did you guys notice that Naruto BINGO is now listed on the Tabletop gaming page? I'm very excited. ;D
I'll be there as Kyuubi Naruto. (3tails) This is going to be flipping awsome. ><
Konichiwa Otaku Elite and all subspecies of manga/anime fan(Genshiken),
I just need to decide a size to make the "It" signs for Naruto Freeze Tag. I suggest that the location for N.F.T. be in proximity of the Hilton hotel.

Well you want the sign to be big enough for people to know who is "It" so I suggest a normal paper size (8.5 by 11). Will it be slung over the person kinda like a really big necklace? Then a normal sized paper will suffice.
Chess? Anyone? Come on! I'm sure there's a lot of you who would be awesome at this! Do we need to challenge another series?

Ah heck, why not? XD I'll give it a shot.
I don't know how to play chess. I barely know how to play checkers.
Hay rose how gose the showing a pics of the work in progress i cant wait to see them
learned how to play chess from a computer game from years back....was pretty brutal, especially when the bishop attacked the knight ^_^
Im not very good at playing the game, but i know how all the pieces move.

Are ya talking to me? I'm doing great with them but I don't have a camera on me to take progress shots since my cousin borrowed the camera. I dunno when I'm getting it back, but when I do, I'll show pics.
I wish I knew how to play chess better. I know how the pieces move but I have no strategy whatsoever. I just learned how to play because my friend taught me recently.
Weekly update done. This is going to be great! ;D
3 weeks from right now we'll be done with the Naruto Gathering...how sad is that? How EXCITING is that? I can hardly wait!
Thanks to everyone who is helping pull the details together. Let me know if I've forgotten to list something or someone.
Remember to stop by for Bingo on Sunday morning. Prizes will include snacks from Japan (more then just Pocky), and a few pieces of fun Naruto merchandise.
Make sure to bring water and good running shoes for Freeze Tag.
Hope to see you guys at Carameldansen and Chess as well.
This is going to be fun! :) Even though I wish I had green pants for Tenten XD the picture I saw had blue pants, so yeah. I'm pretty much the only pre-shippuden Tenten! :D yay! this outfit is getting big on me though. Haha! This year is going to be fun!
I heard that there is a Naruto marathon going on. I might go see some of it. The Gaara(not Sasuke) retrieval Arc. ^~^
Does anyone think that Kunai mechanical pencils are considered weapons? I saw some in a mall, and I thought that might help my cosplay, due to the fact Tenten's a weapon specialist. :-\ I read the weapon thing, but They never said anything about pencils..
I might be late to the gathering, but I'll definitely be at Fanime on Sunday as pre-TJ Kankuro.
Finished my gloves to look like wrappings so that's good!
All I need now is to put the symbol on Choji's shirt and then make my scarf and that's it!
On a funny note: I dyed my shoes blue to match the color of the Konaha shoes and now when I wear them, my feet turn blue for like 4 days! Like really bright, Eiffel 65 Blue! Just thought it was a funny fact you all might laugh at so at the gathering if you see Female Choji, ask to see my feet. lol!
I was just looking over the list of cosplayers. I'm surprised that Kurenai is not on the list - though I'm sure that there will be plenty of Kurenai cosplayers at Fanime anyways. :)
I'd love to join the Naruto gathering. Please put me down for Kurenai-sensei. I'm hoping to find a Shino, Kiba, and Hinata who would be willing to take Team 8 pictures with me.

heh ^_^ i have this crystal/powder foot soak stuff that did the same thing to my feet....took a while before the blue went away. And the funny thing is, that was the only time out of many i used it and it did that to my feet :P
Buuut back on topic....I shall be there for bingo with a friend :) Ill be there with starbucks in hand ready to play XD
Konichiwa Otaku Elite and all subspecies of Manga/Anime fan(Genshiken),
I'm counting the Days/Hours/Minutes until FanimeCon 2008. Here is the updated list for Naruto freeze tag: 1)A three-person squad will be "It". 2)After round one the last person to freeze(or keep defrosted) will be "It" with their squad next round. 3) The "It" squad may only freeze players with hand(s). 4)Players can only be defrosted by someone in their squad. 5)Players must be at least 5 ft. apart from squad-mates 6)Players are not allowed to make constant contact with or hold squad-mates during N.f.t.
PS I found a cool website for naruto cursor(s). I have a chibi Hatake Kakkashi cursor.www.narutocursors.net (http://www.narutocursors.net) :-)
hey! If anyone wants to take Team Gai(Guy) pictures, contact me. I might be the only pre-shippuden Tenten. I will be only cosplaying Tenten for Saturday, and MAYBE friday if I go. I will possibly have Naruto plush toys with me XD.
okay, peoples! i have news!
good news and bad news. which do you want to hear first? The good news?
ok, so i FINALLY finished my Haku cosplay! ^ ^ it made me sooooooo happy. after months of agony and begging and pleading, i finally got my mom to sit down and teach me to sew. it might look crappy to others, but it's my first! looks pretty good for a first, if I do say so myself. everything's assembled, and things are put together right.
now the bad news. my mom is being VERY evil. see, we had this agreement that I'd pay for everything myself (MY money people, MY MONEY), and that IF i had good grades, meaning B's and up, that I could go to Fanime. unfortunately, my grades have gone down. and i had to cancel my skit (not like they were raeally helping) so i can't do what i wanted to. so, mom threw a fit, yelled at me, and then we came to a new deal: if I can get ALL my grades back up to B standard, I can still go (thank you, mom). here's the down side: I have 2 C's right now. so, i'm going to be going to ALOT of study sessions, work with my teachers, and F*CKING GET MY GRADES UP. cuz i really don't wanna miss any of this.
but, in case i don't make it, you all know why *glares at homework and school*
;DI have now offically changed from Naruto to young Iruka sooooooooo, NO KAKASHI PERVERTS CAN GLOMP WITHOUT ASKING!!
I know I'm a little late in the game, but I'll be going as Kiba (genin version). I'm excited to meet all of you! (:

71 on the list currently. Including PM's I think there are 4 or 5 more to add. If we count the cosplay.com list I think that's roughly another 8 or 10...and let's not forget those who are not on the forums but will show up Sunday to join in on the fun. I will not be a bit surprised if we're well over 100. :o
I'm giddy with excitement! ;D
Hey Hi there! My friend Ga-san is going as Uchiha Itachi, Akatsuki version and my other friend (her younger sister, go figure) Authentic-cheese is going as Uchiha Sasuke, from the original Naruto series.
I changed the Poll.
We're down to crunch time. Let me know if we're forgetting anything.
I'll updated the list this weekend.
wow around 100 pepole that would rock just hope i get all the pics i need :) And hay anyone ever tried blueberry pocky if not DO its SO SO SO SO SO SO SO SO good
turns out, I canNOT go to Fanime 2008 due to personal matters. T_T
My parents SWORE I could go to the next one, but STILL. IT'S FANIME.
eh. Just a notice. Everyone have fun though! :D
Second to last update. It's almost FANIME! Wohoo!
There's a lot of Naruto showing at Fanime this year. Make sure to stop by and watch! The marathon is currently scheduled for Saturday from 10 am until midnight. It's the Rescue Garra Arc from Shippuden. They're also showing 3 movies. Make sure to stop by and enjoy!
@localuvr - Sorry to hear that you might not make it. I hope things work out! We'd love to have you there.
@Sarahsomnia - Darn it! I was looking forward to seeing your cosplay. Next year!
Let me know if I need to add anything! See you guys soon!
Add me to the list please. I'll be cosplaying as Kakuzu (cloaked version), I've got most of it together, just waiting to get one more thing done. Looks like I'm the only one doing Kakuzu so far.
Not sure if I will have enough time to stay for the gathering, but I will be cosplaying as Tobi for fanime. YAY! I'm super excited. Make sure to say hi to Tobi ;D

That mightily sucks. :( Well I hope your issues/matters gets resolved nicely (if it's those kind of issues/matters. if not just freely ignore this statement xD) At least your parents said you can go to the next one. :D
I can't cram anymore for my AP tests so might as well be on the forums wahoo. Testing is almost over. Two more days and I'll be a slave to cosplay sewing. I will finish gosh darnit no matter how much less sleep I get. ;D Hopefully my teachers aren't mean and start piling up a bunch of stuff right after testing...
Did I post here yet?

o-o anyone who knows Jiraiya knows he dont like th guy on guy stuff. Now girl on girl, guy on girl, guy on girl dressed like a guy. Thats the awesome.
wow~ I am the only Shika??
too bad there are no Inos =(
I am gonna bring my Sasuke costume along too~ maybe I'll change into it during the gathering~ lol
and ya~ I am gonna be the Shippuden Shika =)
Just cause there's no Ino listed here, doesn't mean there won't be one at the gathering...there's a lot of cosplayers who don't frequent the forum boards. Here's hoping!
ya~ there will be quite a good chance an Ino would show up~
and it will be awsome if we can get an Asma =D
Team... hmm... 10? =P
I leave for fanime 1 week from tomorrow...what a time to realize that I lost one of my shoes for Tsunade's cosplay when I moved! I have no idea what to do...here's hoping the local shoe store / Thrift Store has shoes that will work. >:(

You could also try eBay.
Is it weird to wear your costume both Saturday and Sunday? I typically have two costumes that I wear one for each day I am at Fanime, but this time I only have one.

*blinks* Wow. There's less than a week left until Fanime. That's really soon! I don't know about everyone else, but this year Fanime has been sneaking up on me. I'm posting to report my Kurenai costume progress. I finished her dress! Yay! Only a few minor details (like sandals and red sleeve) left. Progress pictures are here (http://shawnyw.livejournal.com/36584.html#cutid1), if anyone is interested.

o-o or Minato Namikaze
86 cosplayers on the list. You guys ROCK!
This is my last scheduled update before Fanime 2008. I still plan to stay active in the thread, but I don't plan to update the list unless a lot of people request to be added, or someone asks me REALLY nice. ;D
chanocular - I added you and your friends. If you can't make it, that's fine, but we would love to have you at the gathering.
localuvr - great to hear you're going to make it! Tell your mom that we're all happy that you'll be there!
A year of planning and waiting is almost over. I'm really excited to see this gathering, cause I KNOW it's going to be amazing!
I'll be at Fanime from Thursday at about 3:00 p.m. until Tuesday morning. Feel free to stop and say "Hi!" if you see me. I'm easy to locate, I'm the chick with the florescent pink hair (and proabably some purple highlights in my bangs by then). Just say "Hi BrightHeart" or "Hi Chrissy" to get my attention!
Here is a picture of me if you want to find me.

See you all in a few days! Don't forget to take part in the events (BINGO, Freezetag, Caramelldansen and Chess) as well as the Gathering and photoshoot.
Yays, I'm finally on the list! Anyway, I'll say hi if I remember you're name. I'll see everyone Sunday!
So glad that fanime is almost here! My Kisame costume is nearly complete but I still have to finish my sword, but I was wondering if I'm allowed to bring the Akatsuki cloak to the ball that night since I'll have it on & follow the dress code. Hopefully I'll be allowed to wear it otherwise people will be wondering why there's a blue guy in formal clothing dancing lol.
BrightHeart76: My gf was wondering why it says she's Naruto Shippuden instead of Naruto Sexy no Jutsu...she asked if you could please change it(or put Naruto(Female))? Thank you(if you do get a chance to do it) & I'll say "Hi!" when we get there on Friday!
W00t!!! I found out that I'll be getting money to spend at Fanime for my birthday! I'm glad Fanime is 4 days after my birthday!
Just wondering, do you still need people for the Naruto chess? I'll join but I was wondering what else is going on at 5 when we're playing chess & my friend would join but he's going as a bleach cosplayer lol.
well zen i dont think you can bring the cloak in the ball. cause it is a formal event and they want tuxedos and stuff
so if your thing is not like those guys who had the akat suki tux then i guess not

The reason she was posted that was is because I honestly had no idea what SnJ Naruto meant. I assumed it was something from Shippuden based off of the letter S at the beginning. I'll go ahead and fix that now.
Happy Birthday!
For me Sunday is bad. I can only go Saturday. :-\. Its cause I have a party on Sunday and I really don't want to miss it. It would be better if they could switch one of the most cosplay on Saturday with naruto on Sunday. Like bleach. But, I can't attend the gathering SORRY.
I will be around thought on Saturday as Sakura. I am also bringing a Yodanime plushie. I love him. And I really know how to make paper shurikens. I can also make Kunai knifes, but need alot of tape.
XD ALMOST THERE!!
OMG I tried on my entire outfit together and it's sooooo cute!!!!!!!!!!!!
ha! I tried mine on too and it's badass! xDDD
Bwah! I'll be there as Shippuuden Sakura xD
Well the countdown clock says 23 minutes till day zero. YAHOO!!
I'm off to finish packing so I can leave for fanime tomorrow! Don't forget to go to all of the events, visit the Naruto showings in the video room, BINGO, Freeze Tag, Caramelldansen, Chess...I'm sure there's more I'm forgetting...Oh yeah, don't forget the GATHERING!
See y'all Sunday at noon!
Hope to see you there today Bright! I'm a red head wearing all khaki today with glasses and a khaki hat!
I wont be arriving until after midnight today....XD so expect to see me up early and walking around Friday.
i think i'll do some weird anbu pein or some crap
AUUgggh. D: I have school on tomorrow, so I can't be at fanime. Dx My mother will kill me if I ditch school. Does anyone else have school tomorrow that they can't miss?
I know Fanime is tomorrow.
But sign me up for Temari (variation) and my friend (username Tarot) as Ten Ten (Variation.)
We're gonna be our characters, but dressed in custom made yukatas! Like the ones they wear in the Fighting Dreamers Opening.
Happy friday Fanimers!
I am sure ur all at the con, but have a happy day there. I might be there on Saturday to play freeze TAG XD.
Here I am, knee deep in fanime fun. SO Excited! ;D ;D ;D ;D
I've seen A LOT of Naruto cosplayers already, Tsunade will make her debut later today, say hi if you see me! YAY!!
I'm going tomorrow! So look for the girl with the ditto(Pokemon) and blue hair!!!!! I'll be tenten on sunday, and Sakura on Saturday.
So see you as Sakura. I am Sakura as well, but I don't have pink hair. Haven't gone around to buy dyes or wigs. And try to see my Anime music video. Its probably late at night, at stage zero or something like that cause, they may not show it in the contest.
Change of plans... I messed up. I'm sakura on Monday. My outfit needs to be fitted. It looks really bad, but I will try to say hi to everyone, and I'm going to the gathering. Right now I'm getting ready to be the ditto girl(Pokemon gathering at 12 PM) so say hi if you can! And if you remember Duplicas name, I'll be really happy.
WOW! Fanime came thru with some really great Naruto themed prizes for Naruto BINGO tomorrow. Make it if you can!
soooooooooo pics anyone?
i'm uploading them right now and i'm going to compile them into a movie on youtube soon
at youtube.com/sharingannosasuke...
took these pix while waiting for the akatsuki peepz to turn our side.. i dunno why, but i like 'em....

Fanime was amazing you guys rocked it! I was a few minutes late getting to the gathering (I was cleaning up the BINGO table)...I nearly fell over when I saw how Big HUGE the gathering was!
Many Many thanks to everyone who came. Special thanks to Gai Sensei for keeping the gathering going and geting the groups together and to Narutotaku for the use of his MegaPhone (as well as all of his help planning the events this year).
I'm changing the poll once I finish this post. But the one real question I have for everyone is do you want me to organize the gathering again for 2009? Please keep your comments to PM so we don't use up more board space.
Oh yeah....Here are the pictures we got. I'm too lazy to make a specific Naruto Gathering Album, so this is ALL of my fanime pictures. The Naruto gathering starts on page 4.

PS. This thread will be locked in 2 weeks, once I feel people have a chance to share their pictures and experiences. Then I (or the next organizer if you guys so choose) will open the 2009 thread.
I didn't dress up for the Naruto gathering; I had a friend who did instead. And I was late to the gathering as well, but we got so nice pictures. I managed to get on top of the cement wall to take the giant group photo shot. Here they be:

Correct me if I'm wrong...but I think I count 105 people in the group photo. Wow! And I know there are a lot of people I can't see / people who weren't in the group photo. WOW!

Honestly I went to the Bleach gathering the day before and I was surprised how much BIGGER the Naruto Gathering felt...so I wanted to count and see how many people where there. I'm thinking that if I counted right and there are 105 people in the pic, then it's a safe guess to say our total gathering was 120+ And THAT, my friends, is epic.

GOOD TIMES, GOOD TIMES....
In the Akatsuki group photos I was the Kakuzu that was off to the right side standing by the Hidan.
I plan to lock this thread and open the new one for 2009 on Wednesday. Is that a problem for anyone?
BrightHeart76: Maybe you should extend it by just a few days, since I know some people who mentioned not having time to upload photos until a while after the con? I dunno though, it's fine by me personally! :P
I thought this year's gathering was really well-organized! I arrive a tad late so I missed the first few photo op's, but I really liked the structure this year, with the circle and all; it worked extremely well. Of the three Fanime Naruto gatherings I've gone to actually, this was my favorite! (: Fantastic job organizing, BrightHeart! ♥
Anyhow, my photos for the gathering are here (http://www.hype.eiun.net/fanimesun2008.html), beginning @ the third row.
Btw for the record, I was the Asian time-jump Hinata (here (http://www.hype.eiun.net/fanime2008/sunimg/IMG_1105.jpg) / waaay bottom right in this photo (http://fc03.deviantart.com/fs27/i/2008/148/c/5/Narutards_Part_Three_by_MidnightRosebud.jpg) by MidnightRosebud~), so if you have any photos of me I'd appreciate it if you sent them my way! <3
Hmm...good point. How about a compromise. I'll open the 2009 thread sometime this week (I'm having my wisdom teeth removed on Thursday and I want to put the thread up before I do that). But nothing says I have to close the 2008 thread right away. I'll keep 2008 open for a little longer to post pictures and comments about 2008 for another week or so.
Also, what do you guys think went well this year? What could have been better? And before anyone complains at me that Sunday was a bad day please remember that we have no choice what day our gathering is on. Bleach and Naruto change days every year, this was our year for Sunday. We're up for Saturday in 2009.
I wonder how next year is going to turn out? ^_^
Personally I think the whole gathering went well except for the Naruto Freeze Tag which didnt happen cuze of the Yaoi Pics.
Sheesh people and their guy on guy action but granted I'm a Yaoi and Yuri supporter ;D ;D

As this was my first time attending the Naruto gathering at Fanime, I don't have anything to compare it to. Personally, I didn't like the circle. Maybe it's just me, but I had a hard time squeezing through the circle... and because the crowd was so thick, I couldn't see what was going on inside. I was wishing for everyone to be shorter than me - or for everyone to just sit down!

Ah!!! That was you?! I didn't recognize you at all. Sorry. I mean, we've never met, but I've seen your cosplay photos floating around the web, so I thought I'd recognize you if I ever saw you in person. I'm very happy because I've been hunting for that pic of you and my daughter! You guys were cute together. (saving picture) I'm bringing her with me to Sac Anime this summer. More photo opportunities for big Hinata and little Hinata, I hope. :)

I thought this year's gathering was really well-organized! I arrive a tad late so I missed the first few photo op's, but I really liked the structure this year, with the circle and all; it worked extremely well. Of the three Fanime Naruto gatherings I've gone to actually, this was my favorite! (: Fantastic job organizing, BrightHeart! ♥
As this was my first time attending the Naruto gathering at Fanime, I don't have anything to compare it to. Personally, I didn't like the circle. Maybe it's just me, but I had a hard time squeezing through the circle... and because the crowd was so thick, I couldn't see what was going on inside. I was wishing for everyone to be shorter than me - or for everyone to just sit down!

Btw for the record, I was the Asian time-jump Hinata (here (http://www.hype.eiun.net/fanime2008/sunimg/IMG_1105.jpg) / waaay bottom right in this photo (http://fc03.deviantart.com/fs27/i/2008/148/c/5/Narutards_Part_Three_by_MidnightRosebud.jpg) by MidnightRosebud~), so if you have any photos of me I'd appreciate it if you sent them my way! <3
Ah!!! That was you?! I didn't recognize you at all. Sorry.

XD your daughter was the cutest thing to happen to Naruto gatherings in ages.

Aaah really? I didn't know I had photos around online, where? >//<; lawl~
I thought it was a huge honor to get a photo with you two! Okay, only with your daughter, but I'm now re-considering wearing Hinata again (or at least re-making the coat) for Sac Anime. Hopefully we can get a photoshoot together or something. Your daughter was just..... asdwsdfghdsfsfdhs @__________@;
On another note, I can see what you mean about the circle though; I didn't get it at first. In the past years though, the Naruto gathering hasn't been very cohesive since there are so many people; like last year, I remember I was only in a few group shots and the majority were just individual or group photos with four-five people I happened to be standing near. That's just me though!

Oh! That's the first picture I've seen of us at Fanime where both kids are (sort of) looking at the camera and behaving! Thank you so much! (saves picture) My son didn't spend much time in his costume, so I honestly didn't expect to find any of him.

Yes, really. We're cosplayers so our pictures are always floating around the web. The ones of you that I remember are from IamTetsuo's Fanime 2007 photoshoot.
I may have to remake her Hinata jacket, too. At this age, she's growing fast! Now all we need for Sac Anime is a Kiba and a Shino for a complete Team 8. Someone suggested that I make my son a Kiba costume. That's a good idea in theory... except I don't think he'll hold still long enough for me to apply red face paint!
Now that I know how the circle works, next year I will be sure to squeeze up front early so that I can see/hear what's going on.

Oh haha, fair enough. I'm not exactly... attractive in those photos... hahaha but yeah, it's an honor to hear that!
I was actually going to do a Team 8 photoshoot with two of my friends who were Kiba & Shino, except I wasn't sure if the Shino one was bringing that cosplay to Fanime, and we couldn't find a Kurenai. Now all we need is a chibi Shino and we're all set! lol If you've heard of AndyRak, he was the original photographer; he mentioned something about trying to go to Sac in August, but he doesn't know if he can. I'll PM you if something comes up~~

You're very welcome!~
Will you be going to fanime again next year with them? I will surely give them a hug if that's not a problem ^^ They are just to adorable. Oh I wasn't there for the few minutes of the gathering, was your son still in his naruto cosplay for the Naruto group shoot?
Jeez, I love chibi cosplayers so much >_< ;~; Here's another one of a chibi gaara and another naruto!! (with my other friend as the older naruto xD) x3 Sorry if the pics are a bit blurry, my camera has been acting weird during the con ^_^;

Yes. We'll be at Fanime 2009. Hugs are allowed if (1) you ask politely and (2) if the kids are willing. I usually leave it up to them. My son is wary of strangers (that may change by next year). But my daughter likes hugs. :) He was in his costume, but he wasn't in the Naruto photoshoot. There was a guy in a mask who was dancing by the fountains to music from a boombox - he was just outside the circle. My son "danced" with him, and I didn't have the heart stop his fun.
I saw the chibi-Gaara cosplayer, too. He was cute! I didn't see the other chibi-Naruto or the Konohamaru cosplayer though. Wow. That Konohamaru is perfect!
hey guys, here's all my pics from fanime...
umm it's kinda backwards lol.. sorry bout that..
