My one major gripe is the lack of schedules. I got the sense a lot of people were wandering around aimlessly because besides the big events they didn't have a solid idea of what was going on which is why so many people might have seen this year as a registration just to buy from the dealers hall or whatever. I will say that your con is what you make of it. you're not paying $55 to "pay for overpriced items in the dealers hall". It's on you to figure out what sorts of things you want to do at the convention. Find panels, attend gatherings, meet people, watch new anime, play games, go dancing, find deals at the swap meet, take pictures of awesome cosplayers...these things can easily fill your weekend with fun and memories if you have the initiative to do so.

I totally agree with this. I told the exact same thing to my friend, but she didn't seem to understand. I don't believe just because you pay money for something, your expectations will be met automatically. For me, the best part of Fanime are the social events. Whether I see/meet awesome people or not is what makes or breaks my experience, and since I met a lot of really cool people, I was very happy at the end. I guess it all depends on what you're looking for in Fanime  :-\

Of course Fanime could've been much more organized, but I do think the good outweighed the bad. I don't normally go into panels or video rooms, so I can't say whether they were good or bad this year, but I did enjoy the dances, Black and White Ball, and concert. I don't know if it was just me, but Fanime seemed a lot bigger this year, and since staff seemed lacking, so hopefully they know what they're in for next year!

I'll be Yuffie Kisaragi from Advent Children :)

Oh, thank you! Sorry, I should have checked that first. ^^; So would that mean our registration may still be accepted if we only have a few pieces in the gallery?

Hello, quick question (I've sent this to the artist alley e-mail already, but just in case anyone knows on here...) for the portfolio submission, is it absolutely necessary to have all the merchandise my friends and I are planning to sell in our gallery? The thing is, we were waiting out for the registration before doing a lot of our merchandise, so we're a bit worried that we won't finish everything to be approved before all the tables are taken. :(

Thanks in advance!

The chances of me finishing my Kaguya cosplay looks pretty dull...I'm probably going to switch to Anya if I can't get it done in time. e.e

@Rukazu: Aahh I must've missed it somehow D: Those are some good scenes. ^^

Whaaa it's getting close!

Were there any specific plans made for the scene reenactments? I'm sure people at the con will shout out their ideas, but it would be nice to have a few thought out beforehand.

Woohoo!! That's a ton :D

Okay, last-minute change. My friend udonoodle and I are actually gonna go as the Be Mine! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V_FN7d2tF0U) version of Rin and Len. XD Dunno if we'll be recognizable...but I thought the clothes were reallycute.
Final weeks of school are seriously draining.

Hey hey! Turns out we didn't have enough time to do DWC Rin and Len, so we're most likely going to be there in Lolita versions of them ^^ Maybe next year.

I'm starting to get those pre-con jitters!

@Ruku: oooh that's a good idea XD I should have a marathon party too...

@Knight: Aw, too bad about Knight of Zero, but Knight of Seven is just as good. You just wouldn't be able to show off your figure lol

@kanna: It seems my friends and I posted "my friends are going to be blah blah blah" so you have some extra people on there lol. I'm d man n's and udonoodle's Kaguya. udonoodle is d man n's Tianzi. Also, d man n's Milly isn't coming. Sorry for the confusion. ^^;

How about some popular scene reenactments? 

Thanks, Jim. I'm going to look through my closet for something to wear underneath to give me the extra inch I'll need. Luckily, the dress isn't as short on me as it is on the model lol

*edit*

Never mind, I just read a recent post with the same question as mine. Sorry!

*edit*

Hello! So I just bought this (http://www.forever21.com/product.asp?catalog%5Fname=FOREVER21&category%5Fname=dress%5Fdressy&product%5Fid=2080734273&Page=all&pgcount=25) dress today thinking I'd wear it to the Ball when I realized it might be too short. When I got home, I measured it to be roughly 4 inches above my knee. /:

I was wondering if I could wear black leggings underneath or something of the sort so I'd be allowed to wear this dress. It wouldn't be the end of the world if I couldn't, but I do like this dress a lot.

Thanks in advance!

Count me in as Kaguya Sumeragi :)

My friend and I are starting construction on a Dark Woods Circus Rin and Len :) Hopefully we'll also have a DWC Kaito, Meiko, and Miku depending on everyone's schedules. ^^
