May 15th - 17th, 2026.Hyatt Regency O’Hare & Donald E Stephens Convention CenterDo you have a cosplay picked out yet?Any particular events or panels you're hoping to catch?What part of the convention floor are you most drawn to?Are you traveling in from out of town or staying nearby?Will you be attending solo or with friends?
....Bruh
Which one of you niggaz is making these threads
>>10964787Look to the MOON and you will find da WAY
>>10964793Ahh, I see. Thank you. Kind anon
>>10964796All good anon >>10964388South Florida anon rep!!!
>>10964783Anime Central
Can you guys die already? This is 6 months from nowLike genuinely shoot yourself in the head
>>10964808No. Fuck off. I'm starting my plans right now because of this thread.
>>10964808That one anon had it right.
>>10964808Gotta save that for day zero
>>10964808Do you not make plans in advance before the convention? You one of them lazy fellas who ask for a room the month of the con?
>>10964808Hopefully they will soon since that seems to be the trend. How many deaths do they have now, 4-5? Last one was that guy from Michigan.
>>10964808This. Last acen my friend got told to her face sheprobably likes BBC and is fat. FUCKING DISGUSTING
>>10964824Was it true?
I did not get a room so I'm not really thinking about it
>>10964825No she's a respectable nice kind and thin person, if I see the person who told her birds of a feather as a "light hearted line" and no I don't by the "it was about finding other gulls joke. It's revolting. I will lay down some hell.
I might do Asuka again.
I'm staying home because anime is gay and so are all of you
>>10964833checked
>>10964831Can you do burger king rei again? I know you out jew'd the jew Reisen that was EPIC!!! especially when you went on about the "haters" you have. Never met anyone who never fucked up in their life before and has so many haters. especially when walked into my room party, stayed an uncomfortably long time, annoyed the women, and I had to message the guy you told me you were. Why did you wear his bow man? I get nigga never coming back to acen since he moved to Japan or something but like man what gives?You must be a legend.
>>10964824She's probably fat and definitely nawt worthy of BBC. Save the BBC for a hot femboy like me.
>>10964839hey old man. where's revcon at. i know you know
How do you guys meet up with people? Ill be going solo for the third year, feels kinda sad seeing everyone with friends. The official ACEN discord seems so strange/weird to wanna make friends there.
>>10964905It is. Now people have discord and they meet with people they already know. At night you can talk to randos in the common area, even Thursday sometimes. Otherwise you might have to go through the discord. If you have any cons before then try making some contacts at those and join servers and ask who plans on going to Acen. Use common sense and be safe
>>10964905>>10964906Stay away from the midwest gulls i think that’s the discord cult that has pedos, rapists, murderers, actual nazis, and 4 coerced suicides to date? The leader killed himself at acen 3 years ago and took 2 lives with him
>>10964912Warsie the nazi with afrophobia
>>10964913Internalized*
>>10964913warsie didn’t die?
>>10964912He wasn't the leader, the real leader is a seven ft tall ex-basketball pro, hindu guru, drag queen, alien with moobs. I think he moved to Japan though, at least that's what he tells everyone any chance he gets
>>10964924Stuff his hole with bbc
How lame, another year alone. I did meet up with some people from here 2 years ago, last year I did but it was awkward. Time to make friends IRL? fuck.
>>10964905do NOT meet up with anyone from these threads.They're all groypers, pedophiles, and nazi's with none of the fun that comes with that and all the drama/doxxing/drugging.
>>10964951Different servers. There's like 5 of them with so much overlap they might as well be the same one. Join one and you're bound to interact with the others. At your own risk ofc
Discord is so funny cuz why would a stable 40 year old ever be friends with a freshly 18 yr old? They wouldn’t. Time to grow up
>>10964969not to be weird, but met up with an 18 year old girl from the main discord. We hung out and ate. im 27.
>>10964970Groom her while you can
>>10964970What would you have in common with an 18 year old and did you wait for her to turn 18?
I hope the Finn returns this year, I have nothing else to look forward to at ACEN
>>10964950A lot of them are ok, just a select few you need to watch out for
>>10964978None are okay those groups openly give passes to rapists/pedophiles I’ve heard “but he’s my friend” after a dude statutory raped a 14 yr old LOL They don’t see a problem with that because he’s the party guy
>>10964987but he’s my friend
>>10964989Make it three
I am very normal and sane and can be trusted to be awake past midnight at the Hyatt Regency O'hare
What do you think well see a lot of cosplays of? Rize?I hate women so much its insane.
>>10964989Its three but I also want invitesI got banned from main
>>10964974Don't answer this
>>10964866Even if I did know, why would I tell you?Also probably younger than most in this thread.
>>10964951pell isn't even fat, why would you say that
>>10964925He would like that
>>10965012She is absolutely fat. Dumb fat white cunt.
>>10965015she is dumb, and she is white, but definitely not fat.
>>10965018She’s thicky and a manipulative bimbo
>>10965018leader of stinky weebs >w<
>>10965018Objectively she is. She carries it well so it doesn't matter though
>>10964783ACEN had an actual pedo as a guest and never even apologized. I wouldn't go for that alone.
>>10965061Who? You?
>>10965061Shotacon ≠ pedophile
>>10965018She is fat. Her friend is thick. There's a difference.
>>10965073Okay but what about her interest in actual 8 and 12 year old boys? Is that fine?
>>10965076Her friend is a twig
>>10965061ACEN is retarded because they completely shy away from idol culture and vtubers.One of the organizers when asked about idol guests just went "lol, lmao".ACEN also classically lacks in panels because everything is more "scrutinized" so the interesting panels go to midwest/magic/CAD instead because atleast they'll get accepted.
>>10965092No, Warsie's twink is a twig. Cass is slim-thick
>>10965088She was only 19 when she said the 12 year old was cute. And that's all she said. Also, 19 was consider to still be a minor in Japan at that time.
Anyone wanna meet up?
>>10965111You are insane. She's normal skinny
>>10965153She is absolutely not skinny. You must have never seen a real skinny person in yo life
>>10965018They are all disgusting so it doesn't matter. I don't know how they haven't had anything actually happen to them yet given they caused literal deaths but I guess that's the power of pussy for you.
>>10965152met some cool people last year
>>10965284what "AI" did you use for this ?
>>10965288Literally replying to an AI slop post.
>>10965293Grok 4 Heavy (SuperGrok)
Are Warsie and AtJap considered gulls or nah?
>>10965299they're the opps
Aaaaa don't know what to cosplay
>>10965300Opps to the gulls or just to Gooner (wendigowithwifi)? Because the gulls hate Gooner too.
>>10965101Acen 2022 had vtubers but hey were comically bad that year and so they've been effectively blacklisted from a lot of groups after they sold their guests on vivid mask mandates, then undid them right before the con.
>>10965383Only because he went to the suicide's guys family and spilled the beans on how horrid the group was. Literally they didn't do shit about him till that event lol. They only ever get rid of people when they have to take accountability for their actions.
>>10965392Yeah Gooner stuck his nose where it didn't belong and even started contacting ppl's families (not only the guy who committed suicide, other folks involved as well). Like he's a major snitch and the gulls don't like that. The other two never bother anyone.
Can we talk about something other than drama?
>>10965398What do you guys think the big cosplay will be?
>>10965398It's the same thing every ACEN thread and pretty much all the Illinois cons.>Noting but drama because of those groups>mods nuke all the comments>ACEN finally comes>That group just starts more shit and it goes critical.>Mass deleting of comments.>Thread dies.It's always the same people too.
>>10965398I think ACEN sucks and lacks variety!
>>10965384they werent blacklisted, theres just a member of their parent organization who hates vtubers and idol culture.Which is why they NEVER have idols OR vtubers OR maid cafes...
>>10965405Good
this entire con is just faggot elitism failed to leave the nest cliques. mare fair mogs you
>>10965401when the magic is gone but you keep going to the con sometimes ppl who took too much get delusional and think their life is an anime their friends are the characters and they make up dramatic plotshow embarrassing
>>10965414My favorite plot was when they drove that guy to kill himself and then made fun of it for it.
>>10965416Do you honestly believe that's what happened?
>>10965417Why is it a secret? Cause if it is then it's a bit weird since they didn't seem to have a problem telling everyone about it till they had to start taking accountability for it.
>>10965419what happen with them pissing away all that gofundme money and not actually giving it to the family of the an herod guy? lmao, I will be cosplaying reisen, look for me
2023 was funGot to take a pic with her
>>10965437Who is she?
What are these ladies cosplaying? Is this Show By Rock?
>>10965539>ladies
Does anyone remember the racoon hair tranny from 2024? Damn she had cake.
>>10965401What a shame.ACEN is the only con I really go to.
>>10965425One of two possibilities.1. Took it for drugs. That's why it happened in the first place was because they got in to an argument over drugs.2. Took it out of spite. After the fat blonde one got kicked out by his family she was bitter about the whole thing.
>>10965401>>10965398i'm here to talk about cons and ignore the retarded schizo shit.Unfortunately theres so few non-schizos here that it's just me and like 2 others...
>>10965590what are you thoughts onthe color temperature of the con center's lights
>>10965591I have no fucking idea what "color temperature" means. I'm gonna assume like... how bright they are?I dunno, the stephens could use brighter lights cause it gets REALLY hard to see out of a mask sometimes lmao.Personally the best quirk of the Stephens compared to other centers like McCormick is that it has that 1 mile long walkway where the parking garages are on the completely opposite side.Genuinely, ain't nothing like a comfy half mile walk from the hotel at 3 AM back to my car
Anyone remember the racoon hair tranny from 2024?
I really wanna hotel nearby even though I live 40 minutes away. I wanna after party and maybe tinder date
>>10965596I have a party both Friday and Saturday nights
>>10965599You managed to get a room?
>>10965622who didn't
>>10965632Me
I hope I get to see her this year.
