I know that feel bro. I went to a anime convention earlier this year by myself hoping to find a girlfriend. Shit was suifuel. I was thinking about going to otakon but didn't want a repeat of earlier this year.

>>51153673
Sounds awesome might go to that.

I'm drinking Old Overholt Bonded whiskey. Bought a bunch when it went clearance locally.

any girl at a convention who isn't extremely ugly is already guaranteed to have a boyfriend. even if you were handsome and well-adjusted it wouldn't have been possible to pull off
>>
>>51153996
I mean to more clearly it was terrible in general just because I was alone and couldn't easily talk to people. I didn't come with a proper cosplay and my short notice idea of doing something fell through.

>>51153966
I know but I just wanted to see if i could win the lottery and not live a empty existence.

Slowly eroded and then eventually anons went back to their home board
Some momentum returned due to the remake's announcement with the odd thread popping up here and there
Hell there was a thread that made it all the way through today

something funny that I myself predicted: given that /jp/ was a safe space for that thread to unfold without persecution, it killed the rush anons felt for making them in secret and thus everyone got bored and dispersed jej
>>51153966
I dont like to be the contrarian one but not long ago I went to a con where a girl approached me curious about my cosplay and we ended up drinking together and two weeks later I asked her out and we hanged out all weekend. It is entirely possible, but I didnt come to that con looking for anybody
>>
Are a bunch of you weat coasters?
I always thought if I had the cons nearby and the money for them I would love them, but it sounds like not that rich of an experience...
>>51153966
A lot of the girls engaged in nerdy stuff are completely on par with the avarage nerd that worships them, and if they are engaging with cons they might be just as lonely as the male nerds and just want to meet people.
>Be clean (girls are more sensitive to strong odors on avarage)
>Be generally healthy
>Find a modest style that fits you and is not obnoxious
Already puts you ahead of the competition and is enough to make you appealing to most girls
>Approach girls politely and compliment on cosplay, or notice an item they have that is a shared interest
>Talk about said interest be honest, be yourself, be polite
>Look at signals, don't do anything brash, don't be a dick, for the first interaction you should probably forget romance entirely and just see if you can befriend them the same way as you would a bro.
>Ask for a discord so you could keep on chatting later or play vidya
>If you fumble and act too awkwardly you can turn it into something charming by making fun of it "sorry, I am a bit nervous, my only practice talking to other human beings in a while has been with my mom"
>Be attentive
>Give a damn about the other human being
>Put yourself in their shoes, what would you do if you were the girl in that situation, or if a girl came up to you behaving the way you are etc...
>If you fail, do not take it to heart, a lot of people do not get along, you will find a girl who will like you, and if you do notice the issue is you, try to see if you can become a better version of yourself.

Any anons going to cons tomorrow give it a shot and report back.

Good morning Jay Peas
Yesterday I ended up seeing a free public showing of mid summer night dream, it was really good.
Today I will keep things laid back. I am thinking I will draw some and watch cosmic princess kaguya, maybe play some touhou 8.
How about you guys?
>>
>>51154756
Please show us your art when it's done anon
I think today I will take it easy and have a few beers. I got some pizzas ready to go in the fridge and some fried chicken, I think it will be nice

Mahjong soul has a great beginner tutorial, and it is also the easiest way to play with others anon since it is really easy to set up a room.
It used to be a regular tradition to play mahjong on newyears over on /a/
Try it out, but, do not stress over it.
Also, if we ever need or want we can always invite the /vg/ mahjong thread over

I'll learn...eventually, I promise

His point was that all decent looking girls at cons have boyfriends. My point is that I was able to find a girl without boyfriend at a con that was eager to hang out with me on top of that.
