well, it feels good to be around ppl where u can just start a random conversation about anime and not feel out of place. I mean everywhere else ppl look at you weird, give you shit about it(esspally at fucking work.....), and at a convention your normal. You can cosplay, make amvs, buy all types of shit, get togeather with ppl that you dont even know and just randomly bs about all types of things.

Thats why i go, to not feel so different.
Oh god, that black dude with the afro is always making those damn trash ass music hip hop amvs...he needs to do something with techno or rock....
.......as if I would do something like that.

Making friends is always fun.
Also finding people who you only know online.

I know when I went recently I met a few people I met online. It is fun to see what people really look like.

Sort of like the "mystery date" game.

go for the events "we will go in teams of one and assualt the con"..
Anyway I still like events but I tend to-go for the people. What's other
peoples con motivations?
After last year, I started liking them to be in a crowd watching a hentai series. Seeing a huge crowd for hentai was a shock to me. I also like the available, free video games to play. I get to watch other anime or movies as well. A weird reason why I like going to a particular convention is because of the drive down to Baltimore from PA. Downtown Baltimore looks very nice, I'd live down there if I could.

This was a necropost, BTW. Check the dates.

ebichuman, if a thread is really old like this, it's best to just read it as it is and let it be without dragging it back up. You'll catch the next interesting thread as it's happening and can add to that, promise.
