I assume this means the truck is gonna be there again? I missed it last year.
Need a pass to go to the nominoichi junk sale, hope the line isn't shit this time.

>>10909042
does Boston pizza still do the welcome sign?

One of these days, sure...when my local con isn't running on the same days. (I've already said this at least twice before in other threads just this year, and it won't be the last time)

>>10909049
What's your local con?

>>10909050
Mizucon in Miami. I've been wanting to do a Canadian con now but haven't had the chance yet

>>10909042
never been to anime north before but I’ve only heard bad things
should I save my money for other cons

Shots 'n squats

>>10909042
Might no pass it if I find a room. But probably just going to something local that weekend one this year.

>>10909042
These niggas eatin beans

>>10909078
not that many other cons in toronto honestly

>>10909042
The transparent tranny is a good addition kek. No trannies at the truck YWNBAW

>>10909102
What else is there?

>biggest convention in Canada
>guests are all dub voice actors
>attendance numbers are skyhigh so if you go into the convention itself, you're rubbing elbows with sweaty nerds
>this year they got rid of the Sheraton for con events
>no parking because it's all concentrated in a single lot for 30k+ people
>the only hotel in a reasonable distance (Delta) sells out the day it goes up
>halfassed AliExpress stuff thrown together for cosplays or people there to do "professional shoots" with crappy photographers
>will either rain or be unreasonably hot
Not sure why anyone would buy a ticket for this convention, much less go to it at all. You'd have more fun driving nails through your dick for a weekend.

>>10909139
hot girls dtf if you aren't a sweaty neckbeard

>>10909155
>if you aren't a sweaty neckbeard
So nobody here has a reason to go.

I like gatherings.

This convention is a fucking joke

Will there be another lobster fight this year?

>>10909513
Why are those lobsters black? Why are there lobsters in the first place?

>>10909514
That's what lobsters look like anon. They were on acid.

>>10909514
They're refugee lobsters who were staying in the old Radisson hotel

On a completely unrelated topic, if you are in the AN dealers room/artist alley watch out for pickpockets and outright theives targeting artist cash boxes and big spenders.

>>10909520
Lobsters are red, not black.
>They were on acid.
What?

>>10909522
Lobsters aren't red until they're cooked lmao

>>10909513
what the fuck

>>10909513
how do you decide who wins? Can farm grown lobsters even kill each other? They look so docile in the tanks.

>>10909589
It's like arm wrestling, but about which one grabs the other's claw first
Crab fights would be much better spectacle because they can actually walk on land. The lobsters basically shuffled around a little because they're so heavy for their legs. Their big tail is meant for swimming not walking

>>10909733
Coconut crab VS a human

>>10909042
Is there anything to look forward to for this con besides hotel parties in cosplay?

>>10909940
Truck parties in cosplay

>>10909980
So basically nothing for you.

im looking forward to finding a friend i met at the previous con

Anybody pulling up in a Limbus cosplay?

>>10909042
i'm thingken bout it but the cost of hotel + viarail there & back is kinda whack since i don't have anyone to carpool with
plus i don't have a cos...mabe i could pull one together in a month

>>10910396
Where are you coming in from

>>10909042
All the girls who go to these things are fat pigs with cum leaking out of their pussies and asses in hell

>>10910508
yeah, my cum

>>10910508
Unfortunately accurate. The amount of overweight women in crappy cosplay is unfortunate.

>35 days

What time did the lot fill on Saturday last year? 11AM?

>>10911060
Around that time.

>>10909116
Comicon already passed last month and fanexpo is in June. That’s it

I have some intel to share for Saturday of AN. Get ready

>>10911091
Okay, go ahead. If you don't respond within the day, fuck off.

>>10911108
There will be a private booth in the truck where you can rail a femboy who is chained up inside

>>10911110
What truck?

>>10911110
Check the OP image, he's in the forest not the truck.

>>10911141
Femboys are based and not troons

>>10911142
You mean traps (2D) are based and not troons. Everything else is a disgusting abomination and you will be judged accordingly when the time comes. You'll die early, after you dilate.

>>10911143
Traps (3D) are based, you are just gay.

>>10911144
Calling those subhumans traps implies you could be trapped by them, which unfortunately for you, they are and always will be undeniably a man in all regards. You are a homosexual.

>>10909139
seems like the issues with running major con in an ill equipped venue is catching up with them.

>>10911186
also, apologies for the typos in my reply.

>>10911158
The penis is a feature. If you don't like it, you're a latent fag, unbased, and probably a normie to boot. Traps are anime culture.

Hello normalfag.

aren’t the guys who host this in their 30s already?how long can you find solace in being a depressed weeb lol

>>10911256
The people that host Anime North are in their 40s-60s.

I'm hoping to find more Madokas and Jannas

>>10910009
finding? did you not exchange contact info or something? Finding does sound fun.

>>10911523
They basically mean staying outside in the grassy areas and parking lots where a lot of people congregate.
Yes, the seiyuus and directors who are invited actually do fly to Canada, unless otherwise noted.

>>10911524
There's almost 30k people in recent years. Look at the convention/congress centre. Does it look like it can fit anywhere close to that many cars? You either carpool, get dropped or, commute or hope for the best.

>>10912049
Who spends money on AN? Just drink and talk to people in the lot.

>>10912050
exactly why I'm not buying a ticket

Last year was my first year, had a blast at the truck so I'm planning on coming back. Only reason I'm tempted to buy a pass is there is a DJ on Saturday that played at the truck last year and I enjoy listening to online, but I could just listen outside of the stage cage for free instead. No idea why they set up the outdoor stage that way, it looks absolutely horrible with the giant fence around it.

This is inaccurate given the amount of immigrants that come to Canada with little to no grasp of English and do fine.

>>10912794
chinks and pajeets are able to get away with it because they have enclaves big enough to support them, japs don't. The racism parts were the point though, and are very true.

>>10912800
Japan is also very racist. Who gives a shit?

>>10912805
I do, because racism is based

>>10912800
I don't get it
I'm a visible immigrant and haven't faced that much racism
I can't even imagine why someone would be racist against a jap who could speak fluent English. If you can't then of course people will not want to deal with you, but that's not really racism imo.

Also what's wrong with the japanese community in canada? they do seem pretty insular from what i've seen.

>>10912857
>Just take Martin Grove and turn onto the Dosco road entrance
Thanks, I'll try this.

>>10912874
Unless someone can prove otherwise, I'm guess no Jap wrote it. Even with the mistakes, it reads too much like something from a native English speaker. Also the first results when you look it up are on Reddit, which isn't as damningly fake as iFunny but pretty close

>>10912874
>>10912880
I doubt a Japanese person would write to bring salt.

As far as insular goes, most Japanese people abroad in the West end up that way because Japanese education and media raises them from infancy to believe it's impossible for a Westerner to learn the Japanese language or Japanese customs EVEN IF they've been in Japan for 10+ years, that a Westerner is some magical ambassador of their country doomed to constantly tell all Japanese people in Japan they meet about where New York is and how to eat a hamburger. Japanese people are raised with the same exact
concept about themselves, that they're born as and will die as Japanese speaking, Japanese living people and that Japan is so unique they'll never be able to assimilate abroad in the West so they should just give up. Obviously this is nonsense but if you believe it that's how you'll end up.

In America the internment camps brought Japanese Americans together as a culture and the result is many neighborhoods actually
ostracized the FOB Japanese who came to America after WWii because those guys didn't experience the camps. This resulted in Japanese descendants from internment camp families keeping their culture and isolationism/racism in the family as a defense mechanism and mark of elitism but the "pure" Japanese who didn't experience the camps ended up mixing with non-Japanese
and getting fluent in English right from the first generation, because they had no choice - the American-Japanese refused to associate with them. I imagine there's some story behind the unique attitudes of Japanese in Brazil and Canada as well.

>>10912885
can confirm. if you're mixed blood, in a mixed marriage, or have mixed kids, these types won't associate with you either.

surprise surprise, the thread is /pol/ lite instead of anything about the con, the discord must have caught wind that people were making fun of them

Show me the difference between /a/ and /cgl/ because none of your faggots cosplay anyway.

>>10913729
the difference is that the /cgl/ toronto group, for all their political posturing and joking in discord, is entirely minorities and enables trannies

>>10913730
Most of Animaple and /a/ crew are Asian, or tranny sympathetic, literally no different than /cgl/. Welcome to Toronto.

>>10913731
Animaple only because they have trannies in their staff
Is the /a/ crew tranny sympathetic?

>>10913738
Considering the OP image has one hanging in the forest, probably not

>>10913729
People from /a/ actually contribute to weeb culture with the truck setup, DJing, a projector showing anime, weeb food at the truck, etc. The /cgl/ group is a bunch of coattail riding trannies that are only involved in this community because they are desperate losers who want a girlfriend and think anime conventions are where they can find one.

>>10913747
True, we should let all the cons Animaple guests at know how they really feel

It's one of those cons that's worth it of you're a local or have friends here. I don't think it's worth travelling out to but it's definitely the best con in Toronto. Fan expo is full of capeshit, not enough cosplay and too packed in general. IFF / Anime Toronto is usually pretty dead.

Having said all that I always look forward to it every year. I'm grateful for all the cool people I've met in the anime scene over the last year. The dudes who run the truck and the IJA guys are pretty cool.

>>10913985
It's the biggest anime convention in Canada, Canadians all know it, it's just shit. It's not well known outside of Canada because Americans have their own cons to go to and AX, already located in the US, would be the premier convention to attend for them.

can't wait to charge my JO crystal with my bros when i see the blue archive cosplayers

>>10914120
actually, it's xa'am
us xisters won't stand for this

does the truck do advertising? who does it? how did everyone find out about it?

>>10914124
i found out about it when i was smoking meth in the back of the parking lot and gooning to lucky star

Does anyone else feel too old for anime conventions? The last couple times I've attended AN, I feel out of place even though I'm only 26. I don't know most of the stuff that's being cosplayed and I don't have much fun with the convention itself.

>>10909139
>biggest convention in Canada
they're not you illiterate retard, they're the biggest 'non profit' con in canada, which somehow manages to be more expensive, with far less going for it than the 'for profit' cons

>>10912557
who cares about them being /pol/ thats the least of the server's concerns. issue is half the server is just a bunch of closeted manlet homosexuals that whine about how much they hate their race, its the worst of many worlds while they larp like they're not as cringe as troons

Try Yeti-con It's incredible but it's hosted out in blue mountain. the venue in fantastic for pictures and there are pools+hot tubs.

Last year it got overrun by pajeet though so hope that clears up

Anyone get an early look at the schedule?
What looks good?

>>10914184
please tell the class what the biggest anime convention in canada is

>>10914214
That's normal for Canada and no it's not going to stop.

Very sad but it makes sense since they scared away any remotely attractive women.

>>10914253
remotely attractive women on /cgl/ are not people you want anything to do with, scaring them away is a public service

>>10914277
Is that what you tell yourself to feel better about having a sausage fest every year

Don't you find it the least bit peculiar that all the people, including the guys, that were in the party pictures with women in the past years have all disappeared for bigger and better things

Is this the truck you guys have been hyping?

>>10914306
they were normies only there for booze and women, good riddance. I get to dedicate a weekend to hanging out with my bros and have a great time.
Simp brains can't understand enjoying oneself without somehow pandering to women, truly sad.

Have fun at your normie truck-kun rave

both sides of the truck shit are cringe
all i'm going for is to drink in the parking lot and stare at cosplayers until they get uncomfortable

>>10914310
everyone here is a "normie" you normalFAG mouthbreather
you're going to a convention, you are not excluded from that group

>>10914311
I'll have more fun than you will desperately kowtowing to "remotely attractive" slampigs that wont even look at your pathetic weiner
>>10914313
thanks nigger

>>10914311
Is the schedule out? I couldn't find this on the website at all. Would be pretty ironic if it's actually officially part of AN now.

>>10914321
It is on the schedule https://animenorth.sfo2.cdn.digitaloceanspaces.com/Documents/Anime_North_2024_schedule_web.pdf
It's way down at the bottom. Also the truck happens both Friday and Saturday, and doesn't have a name (especially not truck-kun lmfao), so this reeks of some retard at AN doing this without consulting the people who organized and paid for all of this. Also deciding they can fence it off.
The leverage they have is it takes place on con grounds but I can't imagine they actually want to consider it official given who gathers there. Feels like a case of "wtf people are having fun, that's not allowed." It would make more sense to just call the cops or some shit, not like the con reputation can get much worse anyway.

For me, its getting shit faced and talking to my friends, somehow convinced Europeans to fly in. Con is much more fun and less autistic than the thread thankfully.

does anyone else want to smoke meth and talk about our hatred for minorities

>>10913985
IFF got Suzuki Konomi first year, then seemed to drop the ball the next year it was running. Now it might spilt into 2 cons somehow? For JP guests Otakuthon is MILES better, AN is only worth it if you have friends or can make friends, which used to be easier with meetups but now... they are kind of shit.

>>10914381
Probably because the meetups nowadays are middle aged guys with beer guts that don't even cosplay or have hobbies (including anime)

>>10914148
sounds like a you issue. 27 and still enjoying cons [spoiler] but I swear if anyone talks about mortgage rates I am throwing them in front of the truck, that kind of stuff does make me feel old [/spoiler]

>>10914385
the truck hasn't killed anyone for years now

>>10914381
Gonna be honest here, I lurk threads for any con including ones I'm 100% sure I won't be attending. These are always by far the funniest and make me upset I have to wait at least another year before *the truck*, again

When has the truck party ever costed money
Aren't the /a/ people that bring the truck anyways

>>10914408
Sounds like the pajeets and chinks that rent the truck are sellouts

>>10914409
Took them long enough, years of paying for it so others will be entertained is a waste of money

>>10914410
Yeah spending money on doing fun things with your bros is a total waste of money

is it worth playing DND there? At the TTRPG events?

Also advice on picking up anime north girls?

>>10914427
here's some advice
they're all trannies

>>10914427
Idk I only do the Battletech event

there's so many fucking panels and whatnot how do you decide what to attend?

>>10914433
are you a zoomer
most people who have been to cons before forgo panels altogether, it's the same shit every time at every convention

>>10914434
I've never been to a con before. wdym it's the same shit? I do think that most of it sounds horrible. this is just a random screencap i took:

>>10914433
Easy. I decide not to attend any of them, because all of them are shit.

>>10914433
Pick the panels that are relevant to your fandoms and add the ones that look entertaining enough on their own.
Filter out the introduction/101 panels because they won't say anything you don't already know.
A lot of the "panels" are actually video rooms showing random anime.
If it's your first time then it's worth seeing Anime Hell at least once.
If you like live music the Idol singing contest usually has some pretty good singers.
If you like ogling cute girls and don't mind sitting through the occasional hambeast the dance showcase and the kpop circle are good fodder.
If you wanna take pictures of asses hanging out look for one of the scheduled group photoshoots in the 5 designated areas and you can be part of the wall of cameras. Long zoom lens strongly recommended.
If you're into history there's usually an old guy amateur historian doing a couple of panels per year about WWII history.
If you get there early try to snag a maid cafe ticket to at least get the experience once.
The crafting stuff you can ignore if you're not into it already, same for the video games.
Avoid any character roleplay or Ask Me Anything panels like the plague.
I haven't tried the DND at AN but if it's the same people that are present in Breakoutcon they should be decent with DMs that know what they're doing.

more like cuck-kun rave, yikes is all I can say from this year's paltry display

>>10914421
incredibly reddit, besides everyone actually in the know also knows those most involved with creating it are long gone. I know I have the irc logs still, not sure how many can say the same

>>10914306
this isnt necessarily why most are long gone but it is a weird bit
the crab manletality surrounding members with gfs isnt even the worst of their concerns, though I dont really mind guys like that convincing one another to avoid females. its for everyone's best interests

Since you're so well informed, why don't you tell us who they are?

If you see a jacked chad walking around that's unironically me. if you're not a complete faggot come say hey

>>10914504
is that for real kek? is that what i can expect from most of the panels?

>>10914593
??? it hasn't even started yet how would you know?

>>10914515
Are you Indian?

I was thinking of going to Ai-kon; has anyone been to it? Is going to a con without (as many) jeets worth $500

/a/toronto must be seething that their comfy truck hang out now requires a badge and bag checks, meaning no booze. They should park in the other corner and leave AN hanging with a fence around nothing.

>>10914631
no, it's half and half with other panels being hyperfans that know everything about a show and its cast and will talk your ear off about minutiae. But yeah some are just there to collect volunteer hours for a free badge

>>10914664
I haven't been to Ai-Kon but yes it's worth the $500. You can also look at Anime Central and Offkai expo the week before and after AN

>>10914665
What do you mean. They are just gonna go somewhere else, cook shawarma, drink and get high like every year except this time they aren't going to tell you normies who fucking>>10914665
ruin everything.

>>10914673
That would be hilarious.

>>10914666
i don't know who these are but hell yeah melty

>>10914665
What other corner? The lot is going to be filled with cars almost scraping each other by like noon on Friday and by 11 AM on Saturday/Sunday. Now that they're using the north building, there's no free space unless you just have a regular car/SUV that doesn't use up too much space or isn't identifiable from a crowd by being too loud or obnoxious

If you see a fat old balding virile chad walking around that's unironically me. if you're not a complete faggot come say hey

>>10914726
No one will say hi to you

>>10914666
Everyone in and involved with that image is still involved with the truck, time to make yourself taller tranny

>>10914727
Already got tons of hello's and hi's in the past years get to my level.

If you're over 180lbs, come say hey.

this nigga zesty

does anyone here actually watch anime

>>10914762
No, this is where burned out failed normies orbit fat cosplayers because they believe they're more attainable

If you see someone smashing and slamming the astolfo cosplayer with the cute eyeliner wings, that's me making a 12x bussy 8x fempenis successor to pimpy son opp

if you see someone telling the fat aged female pigs that enter our vicinity to get the fuck out, that is literally fucking me, come say hi to me if you're gay and most definitely do not say hi if you are female

>>10914732
Ok pajeet

I am more interested to fly here than drive to L.A

I also masturbate.
