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

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  ???

[BrightHeart76]

"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.

[Narutotaku]

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)

it's MEGA hard to find cosplay stuff in shops... especially a green jumpsuit lol
you COULD try making it. It's doesn't take too much experience. Do you have a family member that can sew or anything? My mom helps me.

  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)

I had a question for everyone cosplaying. I kinda wanted  to have a Team 7 shippuuden thing. So if anyone's cosplaying Shippuuden Sakura, Naruto, Sai or Kakashi...pleeeeease tell me. Would be funnn. >3

EDIT: And Yamato. xD

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.

[BrightHeart76]

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.

[fragiledreamer]

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" ???

[Narutotaku]

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.

[clawmaster]

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.
