Anyone going to the CNAE???

*Points up* Like I said, you *could* assume a lesser attandance, *if* if was JUST Anime Fans. Even rounding up- that's 3 000 people. AN tops it. It's the rest of the con that bumps the numbers much higher.

That was 3 years ago and the convention has be cracking down on the anime specific things being only accessible VIA an Anime Pass... which back in 2000 became 3 day only. Many didn't know this when they bought there passes and thus took the cheaper Comic/SFX pass. Plus take in account that every year growth has occured!

Back in 2000 what was AN attendance?

NO EDIT BUTTON... sheesh!

But, I kinda like getting there early. You get to chat to some interesting people for a change. Last year, got there just after 11am on friday and managed to be 29th in line.

Tis no different if you come an hour prior... I was able to *almost* catch up to the elevator line! I agree that the people in line are VERY interesting!

Anyways are you all going to check out Darkside/Oz, which is basically The Wizard of OZ played along side with Pink Floyd's Darkside of the Moon?

They're playing that? I MUST check it out... Been wanting to for a long time, but I only have Darkside on record, which, while nice, my player is two rooms away from my VCR, and that isn't really going to be changed any time soon....

CN isn't hosting it. Its the movie playing after the Hollwood Anime 'Junkers Come Here'. It has a seperate fee for that!

Aww shibby!

I won't get a chance to attend that then, since right after the con closes I ought to be going back to the place where I'm staying. But maybe, just maybe...

Or maybe I'll just go find the original movie on video and try it at home myself.

Anyways, I think I oughta check their website... wonder if the schedule is up now. Anyone got features they'd recommend attending at the con?

[Anamorphic Productions]

Well, if you can get in, Anime "Win loose or draw" is always fun. Past that though? Masquerade, if you're interested, Karaoke/anime all night, if you dare....
There isn't a lot to really "do" past watching anime and socializing- which is nice, since I never have *time* to watch anything at AN because I'm so busy running around.

Otohiko,
this year they have 'Voice Acting 101' which sounds very interesting. Anyways the schedule isn't up... probably won't be up until next week.

I won't get a chance to attend that then, since right after the con closes I ought to be going back to the place where I'm staying. But maybe, just maybe...

Junkers Comes Home is playing at Bloor which is off the cons grounds... Junkers starts @ 9 at Bloor, the convention doors close on friday @ 9PM also...

Win, Lose or Draw - I'd love to be actually on a team in that. I was watching it last year and it was a hoot. Some truly great pictures. Sadly, unless I find another suitable team member, won't happen. It is a great time though.

Anime all-night - considering that post-convention I'm usually too hyper and not used to sleeping in big cities - I might just try that

I'll try to get around to more workshops this time - trying to be more active.

Also recommendable is watching anime movies that they seem to show in that big theatre #1 - got around to AMG the movie and Escaflowne last time and wasn't disappointed.

So, will keep eyes open for the schedule then...

Nice!

Hey, does anyone know if there have been any changes to this because of possible power shortages? I'm hoping it all goes on as planned, cause I'm about to get my bus tickets...
