It will start between 12-12:30pm during the Naruto Gathering, this is not a way to mess with the Naruto Gathering, it just it where the most people will be around and it's in mid-day so that everyone is awake and ready!
I have a lot of some Maybes and some yes's.
For those who don't know what the hell Caramelldansen is, it's a dance that's big in Japan and somewhat popular here among Con-goers
Here's the dance It's with characters from Gundam 00 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JIls2e2eU7c)
Sign-up if you want to join in. I will update the list and other stuff as much as I can.
If you don't sign in now, that's okay you can join in whenever, but keep it in a nice even line.
We'll have a quick warm up and a how to, for those who don't know.
I highly discourage this happening when like only 2 know what they're doing. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=roj4cyEUfmQ&feature=related)
Oh and the area I will be at is near the doors. You'll be able to find me easy when I'm there.
Thanks,
Mister_E

*MINOR UPDATE*
Now this what I want the Gathering to end up on this grand scale but with a little bit more order.
Sakura-Con '08 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=diDv73T-PUA&feature=related)
And a crash course in the "Jig" before we begin for those who want to join in but did not read this. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5a_BmD_4I8Q&NR=1)
There will a song after the Caramelldansen I will keep to myself so everyone don't disband after the Caramelldansen it done for the 2nd time.
Okay this is no longer a Gathering but a Event the time will be the same unless something goes wrong. Same time same place 12:30 fountians, photos after.
THANKS!
The list is still open for many more and it is your job to just show up at 12:30 pm on Sunday at the Naruto Gathering if you find me (The Laughing Man) just stick close by I will not have a sign just my speakers ready afterward I hope to get a big group photo so don't disband when do.
Good Luck, see you in 3 days.
Your Comrad,
Mister_E
Lol, why are people JUST finding out about this meme? Great, looks like I have to find a new theme song after using it for 2+ years.
Sooo yes or no.
I'm in. I've posted in the Naruto Gathering thread asking people to join in. We'll see what happens.
Awesome thanks. The more the less of a chance to look crazy at an Anime convention and I mean THAT crazy.
WOW, I won't get that song out of my head now. Loved the video too.
That's the idea!
Well it worked. Count me in as well.
Freakin' Awesome, I will be easy to find we'll start at 12:30pm!
*head wall* i'll see if i can make it
Alright cool, I'll just update the list.
for some reason, i just imagined Ulquiorra and some Espada doing that dance....
Good Idea I'll try and get some!
Count me in from the Naruto Gathering (I'll be a female Choji) so yes.
But....I will also point out that THAT was not a dance!

Okay okay a Jig SORRRYYY!
Sorry! It's just...I'm a dancer and that is NOT hard to do! But it looks fun!
So.......do we just do that movement the entire time and not change it up?

You can jump in and out but don't try to bumb into people, you can get tired pretty quick.
12:30 would probably be better. That way we have a chance to get pictures and all before everything starts. We plan to break up into smaller groups some after the big group photo's anyway, so that way people who don't want to join don't feel pressured.
Yes yes, and for them late comers we can do it again but 2 times max.
So is this just for Naruto cosplayers or all kinds? I'm not doing a Naruto cosplay... but either way I want to be there with a camera. ^^

It's not just Naruto cosplayers it's for everyone, just Naurto in the biggest Gathering at fanime of Naruto and Non-Naruto cosplayers alike. You can join if you want to.

Moontubers (Nico Nico Douga) only found out about this about a month ago, which became a huge meme over there. This causes a relay back to YouTube. But a lot more parodies have been pumped out since then.
Regarding the meet up, sure I can be there.
*clap-clap-clap* This going to be fun!

Cool I'll just add you with Pimp Kakashi.
I'll try to join you xDD
I'll either be a YGOGX character or Simca from AirGear(Gothloli) =D
Right then!
I'll be there, high on coffee and in my Axel cosplay! ^____^v
OHHH Axel would be a kickass add on!
Which day will this be?
If its a day other than sunday, I might swing by to participate.
Possibly as Ren (melty blood), Hisame (Fatal Frame 3) or Miyu (vampire princess miyu).
Its easier to keep to the rhythm if you count 1-2 in your head. XD and align that with the music's beat.
uhhhh it's on Sunday if the Bleach Gathering was bigger than the Naruto one then I would do it on Saturday, but yeah it's on Sunday and 12-12:30pm.
Sorry I just want do when there are most cosplayers.
Don't worry about it. XP
OH TOO LATE I'M GOING TO IMPLODE!
I'll be able to go to the naruto gathering and I might even be able to join in the caramelldansen gathering too ^_^ Great way to start out a con-goer's day.
Okay that's another one!
Count me in!
right!
I'm in! I love this meme XD
Okay we gots a Misa.
I'm in as well 8D count me in as Light with my sis (the Misa above) x3
Got it.
There has be an update here on Page one in the opening. Listed under *Minor Update*
i love to join ^ ^
Awesome that's the kind of sprit we need!
I heard we might do this at the Bleach Gathering too ^ ^
but I'll be going to the gathering while also at the Naruto Gathering so
12:30 be better then 12
I cover the Naruto Gathering. Someone else must be covering the Bleach Gathering.
Yeah 12:30 is the right time so that all the late comers have time to show up and we can take photos I want a BIG group shot before we begin then another after.
Update on music!
Hate to bring bad news. But have you checked the official gatherings page recently? This gathering was moved to 11:30 because there were too many gatherings going on at one time.
Hold up does it HAVE to be on 11:30?
Contact BSaphire. She is the queen of the gatherings schedules. She's the one who made the call that the time had to be changed. If you can convince her otherwise, fantastic. As of right now it'll be on the official schedule as an 11:30 gathering.
Okay I asked her nicely to please put it back and explained that it's going to the shortest Gathering it at the con. I don't want anyone to miss out on this.
And if it stays in 11:30am it would completely throw off everything in a downward sprial!
Konnichiwa Caramelldansen peeps ^^)
Mister E was very nice and asked about the time change, but after further review of what is proposed this doesn't fall under the criteria for the Cosplay Gatherings List. I have included a copy of my reply to him so that everyone will understand that I am not shooting down the idea of doing this, but this is more of an "event" than what the gatherings list is for.
Arigato
BSaphireQuoteIn order to answer your question I have been researching further about what you propose to do.
What you have is not really a "cosplayer gathering" but more of a live programming event. This would be better served in that area.
The cosplayer gathering list is for gatherings of people in costume of a particular group or genera such as anime, manga, gaming, Japanese music or Japanese fashion. These people work to get their cosplay costumes together and a gathering of like people for photos from the media and others. They also include other things at some gatherings like picnics, but the essential point is to "Pose" for group, individual, and random photos.
Please don't get me wrong, I am all for random fun which is why I have a cosplay group (AC DC Anime Corrupted Deviant Cosplayers), but as a Journalist/Photographer/Cosplayer/Costumer/Former Programming Director/Former Public Relations/Former anime con forum admin.... etc. I can not list your "event" as a "cosplayer gathering."
I do think you should do this because I think everyone will have fun doing it (I was at Sakura con and the peeps there had fun with the random dancing) thus why I suggested Stage Zero. Mr. Wendell would be the person I would suggest to contact about it. You could also do this as Random Hall cosplay (as long as you do not go against convention policy so check with the executives &/or upper staff) where you would access to the attendees you wish to participate. With 11,000+ attendees at Fanime last year I would think you would have no problem getting some people to join in ^^P
Another suggestion is to do this on Monday afternoon with the All Cosplayer Gathering that will start down by the Hilton. They plan on having the gathering then a parade through the convention.
If your wish is to do this with the Naruto gathering then it should be listed with them and relocated after the "Main" photoshoot. They often go to another location to do individual & random photos. To do it in the location that you are suggestion (Fountains) where it is open to everyone would complicate things for the other gatherings that are listed.
I am sorry, I would have explained all this sooner had I understood the true nature of what you were planning on, and I hope that you can get this to happen.
Sincerely
BSaphire
Update is now up on the bottom of the list! (MUST READ)
Update!
heck yes im so ready for this
I still ahve your number and will call you when the time has come!

Not Really. You have to keep everyone in line and at a distance to do para para. Amd it's fun and a good work out as well. My arms get tired too after a while but man, the exercise is so worth it lol
