I'm going to be spending 5 hours to go to a con in spring and the shit they're posting on twitter is making me regret booking it at all. However, there's nothing else nearby.

>>10966943
>local small con changes its venue from walking distance from my house to somefuckwhere in the next state over
>ride my motorcycle there because im planning on doing a cosplay with it
>"if i'm bored, at least i cant take my bike for a rip on the local twisties, chill in the pool, or hang in the hotel bar"
>get there
>pool's closed
>hotel bar is staffed by slow assholes
>too cold to ride anywhere
>vibes weren't right for the types of cosplays i like to do

At least i had friends there who threw room parties every night. Other than that and the occasional panel, it was boring af.

>>10967166
what con and what event?

>>10967451
Can't even remember which one specifically cuz it's happened so many times. But they're always local and the event is usually cosplay contest

FanimeCon 2022 (Specifically that year)
I swear to God, Covid made everyone forget how to run their cons. So many panels didn't happen or got delayed the to tech issues and it just felt poorly ran. I left feeling like I barely got any vacation out of it.

I'll say that things have gotten better with that gone as time went on, but I was just surprised with how sloppy they got after being virtual for just 2 years.

If this post is real, your gyaru make up is spot on. What's the outfit with it? Are you going to make your hair more expressive or stick with the pigtails?

Some answers here are strange

wtf even is this? It's obviously Miku coded but what even is it? It looks like those super early genAI prototype "this is what your brain sees during a stroke" images Google showed off almost a decade ago. You know the ones, the pictures that look kinda like cluttered room full of random shit but really it's just visual slop. Yeah... that was pre-alpha generative AI imagery, you know that right anons?

>>10967450
Are you on mobile? I can open and see it, it looks like a cosplay hanging up in a closet. I can't tell the series. Looks normal, the questionable part is its relevance to Comic Con.

>>10967426
Are you trans?
Either way, the fit is cute.

If you mean Haruka and Michiru, the US-dub turned them into cousins

If you mean cosplays like Elsa and Anna, or Ram and Rem, maybe the radical christians were right after all

It's a relatively small con because it's run by a college anime club, but overall a good time. They had karaoke last time I went but that was years ago and I've moved out of the area since then.

>>10966179
>Are people there nice?
they're alright I guess. pretty typical awkward, progressive, tumblr-y college kid types

>Are there any activities you would recommend?
last year they had a "guess that anime song" panel that I thought was a lot of fun as well as one or two other I quite enjoyed but there were also some rather middling ones

>I was really hoping for karaoke
they do have karaoke, although it's not exactly what I imagine would come to mind upon hearing "karaoke". last year I had the displeasure of performing a rather subpar rendition of Porter Robinson's "Cheerleader" in front of an audience of at least 150 people

and a question for you if you don't mind, why Toracon in particular? It's not a bad con or anything but I'd figured someone visiting from outside the US would prefer to attend a much larger/more well-known con that's not in Upstate NY

Wow. What a violently unnoteworthy con to randomly even find talked about here. And it just so happens to be one that I've been going to on and off for a decade

Its nothing special. I suppose they have a "sense" of what a con should be, with the experienced people more or less being the nerdo weirdo types that you'd exactly expect from a technical school who actually do go to other cons and Japan to know better, but for some reason, they stick around and don't bother to leave to do better things

Snowfest is run by their cosplay troupe which is basically their trial Toracon, but is largely more of an excuse for them to build money than focus on the actual quality of their big event. Not that they find anything original to "try out" each year anyway that bigger cons haven't already figured out with proven success

This school itself is nerd haven for the locals and regularly has nerdy smaller events that are more or less are okay for the public to go to, but is also exactly why the scale of their event gets limited more and more each day. They've had cool guests from Japan in the past, I guess. Lately the school is causing them issues with their inventory and there was a whole petition against the school signed for it though

Tldr; a small con that everyone who remembers says it dies more with each year, but for people who don't have to try too hard to go its fun I guess

>>10895583
Its an excuse to dress up "sexy" and "attractive" in a socially acceptable setting.

Also my cosplays tend to get lots of attention - i guess that's something i like.

>>10967269
Also the times that i did non "sexy" characters - i got absolutely zero comments. Shingo from Initial D (complete with steering wheel) and the Moxie Guy (at a maine convention).

I'll stay with my manwhore outfits since they actually get results.

Depends on the character

>>10895583
I cosplay to try to have sex with a female cosplayer that may be a social reject.

As long as she is not fat, it is good.

It's autumn

>>10934533
the meteorological summer season starts on June 1 and lasts three months, until September 1.
Astronomical summer lasts from the date of the summer solstice until the autumnal equinox, which occurs in the Northern Hemisphere on September 22 or 23

Where do you live where it's autumn already?

Where I live we can still get heat waves until mid october at the latest. If I get past that point I finally feel like it's autumn even though it officially started ages ago.

Also, to clarify why I made that comment; I don't associate hot weather with halloween, and it will be a few months (from when halloween stuff starts popping up in stores, not from now) until halloween is actually there.

not falling off anytime soon

>>10756720

You can load the pictochat nintendo ds rom on your 3DS and it just works.

I'm doing a replay of Kid Icarus Uprising right the fuck now and having a blast
I want to cosplay as Hades!

>>10899898
>>everyone at the con is checking their streetpasses every 30 minutes
Nah, they still do that.

I got the dsi in 2010 I think when I was 8 but never really caught on to the 3ds. The dsi has been through somw hwll not as bad as others but it still works and rhe screen isn't all that scratched but it does have issues turning off if you bend it some. I still have a psp that also went through some but the screen is still good. I also never caught on to the wifi u and then the switch took over everything Nintendo. I'm not sure its cause I dont game as much now or the switch seems a bit hard to use and too much stuff on it but I'll get one someday

>>10967241
>girls who are legitimately former models, former college athletes, take all kinds of performance drugs at the gym
burgerfag so take with grain of salt re: other countries' cons, but most of these 'professional cosplay models' only really show up in person at the big industry cons (AX, ANYC) and maybeee the big party cons (katsu, holmat, etc). they're still very much an outlier at most mid-large anime cons. your average con will have lots of pretty girls glammed up in heavy makeup, yes, but not really the kind of normie models turned 'pro cosplayers' you're talking about.

also, in the big industry cons' case, they're often hired to be there. it's essentially nerdy atmosphere modeling. these girls do it because the cons themselves are offering lucrative modeling opportunities...male con execs have decided this is what the richer simps want and thus are bankrolling models to "enhance the experience." retarded, sure, and antithetical to the spirit of cons, but it's average corpo-con bullshit. they're appealing to the guys who choose to spend their strip club money on dorkshit for a weekend. best of both worlds i guess

>>10966441
>Pre Pandemic
The failed models meta was already a well-established thing by the mid-2010's when I started going to cons. By that point, people like Yaya Han and Jessica Nigri were already old faces on their way out. That one cosplayer doing Quiet from MGSV that kept being annoyed by nerds trying to take pics of her (I think that's what she was upset by? I don't remember for sure anymore) was from before the coof.

>>10967288
YayaHan and Nigri dont seem to be on the way out
>>10967255
this is what im seeing too

>every space initially set up by society's less than top tier potential dates
It really is sad how most men don't see it's messing up their potential to get with a cute 6/10 who actually likes them. All the dork girls I know either met their spouse in one of these spaces in the Before Times or are choosing to be single because the simp behavior in their dating pool grosses them out. I am not kidding when I say that they consider being more into hentai than real women models/cosplayers a green flag.

I would blame Yaya Han and Jessica Nigri
