Marin (and variations) and Yor were the obvious FOTM cosplays for last con season. What are your predictions for this year?

My predictions:
>Yor spillover from last year
>a fuckton of Kobeni and Makima
>Mitsuri from Demon Slayer (her arc comes out in spring)
>Vash Stampede for guys

I really hope so. There was one Symboli Rudolf at my con who participated in the cosplay contest, she was incredible. Expert wig, expert outfit. She was handing out little carrot pins to anyone who came up to her.

Unironically genshin
All the outfits, male and female, have tons of details and accessories. It's easy to do low-effort genshin, but high-effort genshin looks noticeably amazing.

Anyone here going? I'm a local so I'm definitely going but national harbor is a 50 minute drive or a 2 hour train ride for me. Not sure what I wanna do. I heard parking is too expensive and that most if not all hotels and airbnb's are sold out

I should have known, early this year was a cluster fuck with it selling out like 2 weeks before which was abnormal.
So many scalpers and scammers made money from the shock that it was only going to get worse the next year.
2 months is a long while though, there will be chances to do a transfer.

Bought my tickets on a (moderately) drunken whim last Friday, and it looks like I managed just in time. Now, I just have to figure out everything else about the con. I believe I have some buds with a room somewhere close, but driving in 1hr each day isn't too bad if it comes to it. I just gotta figure out what I'm goin to cosplay as.
Either way, I'll have a car close by if any gulls need emergency rides or something.

Sharing a hotel room at a con:

Have you done it before? Where did you find people to split the room with? Were they strangers? What rules were usually in place for the convention weekend? Did any problems arise? Would you do it again?

PSA: Most cons have hotel room groups wherein people can look for/find roommates, transfer an existing reservation if they aren’t going to the con anymore and or release info on a second potential room block drop. I gotta warn against rooming with people searching for roommates on these groups, as there’s usually an underlying reason why these vacancies haven’t been filled.

>Be me
>Katsucon fb hotel roommates group (yes the infamous one)
>Find post about looking for lone roommate since their room has 3/4 people already
>Its some old boomer, his wife and unnamed 3rd person
>Late 40s boomer is a Master Roshi cosplayer and his wife cosplays Ms Frizzle, the third person is a rando non binary whatever the fuck who the wife met at another con previously
>Wife has “lmao I’m literally CON MOM” complex where she thinks she’s “mothering” but she’s actually just patronizing and controlling over what people do
>Went to restaurant/brewery and had a few, nothing crazy but I was visibly a little impaired
>“Con Mom” tries to tell me I need to “stay in” and watch anime with them in the room, and not go out and continue to party (literally why would you “stay in” if you’re at a con like Katsucon)
>Try to tell her I’m fine
>She patronizes me and tells me I’m “not in a state to consent to more drinking”
>I lowkey snap at her and tell her she isn’t my Mom and if I wanna drink myself silly and throw up, it’s my choice and responsibility to bear
>She goes on some holier than thou “tangent against drinking” but leaves me be
>Tried to invite me to room with them at another con

Previous thread: >>10850236

Instead or recapping a 2 year long slow thread, allow me to recap 2 years of Dutch conventions and they're current state:
>Animecon lost half their visitors, is slowly falling to irrelevancy and going through severe financial problems (again)
>Tomo started to ficus more on the fairs, is now rebranding to Japanfest and already went on a "ruined reputation" speed run
>Viencon has grown a lot, learned drugs are bad m'okay, and it wont be long until they can rent out the entire Center Parcs location
>Abunai! is somehow still standing tall and winning by not doing anything
>Nishicon is a decline, had maybe 50 visitors this year and pulled the plug
>Ibaricon came onto the scene but proven itself problematic to work with
>Elfia is no longer welcome at Castle De Haar
>Castlefest remained comfy to this very day
>Heroes Dutch Comic Con and Made In Asia are going stronger than ever
>Comic Con Holland came onto the scene and is growing fast despite some backlash
>Aniway, a Dutch anime magazine, ended their run after 24 years.
>Nintendo is tired of there being 9001 Poké-cons using their IP and took action

To counteract all the moids here and the overwhelming spamming of slutty girls, here's a thread dedicated to the cuties who cosplay.

Emphasis on the "cute" part. Bodybuilders cosplaying just to show off their abs are just as bad as the girls who only do it for onlyfans.

First of all I gotta say this is not about idolize or admire those people, they're bad and so, I'm just saying that their looks were cool.
I mean, some of them, like The Zodiac or Mr Cruel had cool outfits. I talked about this with a friend and he told me it's not wrong as long as I don't idolize them or make fun of the victims.
So, what do you say?

It's some of the Midwest freaks that attend and won't stfu about each other. The convention itself isn't terrible but it's definitely struggling. They have grown over the years and are making better use of the space they have now, but they keep having scheduling and communication issues year after year— and the cosplay contest has has issues for the last couple. It's a decent convention but because of where it's located some very vocal shitty people who love to talk crap about each other attend
