They're pretty disassociated from online shops to order things from and so on. So the only way to get some items are conventions and those shitty little anime shops near them.

Pretty much, that's how a shop up North has stayed in business so long with maintaining a store and doing the convention circuit. Even things like tapestries and posters go from $25-$35 to pre-order and so on, to $50-$75 each, more depending if the character is from a normie flavor of the month show.

That's the part about these things that worry me the most, that they'll pursue a hobby so far to spend $300 on a single figure, yet they cannot look online at all for these things. It just makes me wonder how these people really can function with being able to do all kinds of this crazy social media crap, but can't ask/look around online where to buy their figures and merchandise.

When I was in high school I went to an anime convention's swap room and got a JRPG worth over $100 with a trading figure that probably cost me $7. People really are that dumb sometimes.

I really don't think conventions are worth going to though, unless it has some seriously good guests like mangaka. They're a huge waste of money and excusing manga all the merchandise is overpriced.

It was forty bucks, $35 because my friend bought Nozomi with me. You don't want it. The guy who sold it to me is advertising his website on the back, but I couldn't tell until I bought and opened it. The material/picture is really nice, though.

the aforementioned naughty store was out of stock of the Kotori shirt that I actually wanted

>>143715040

It's a tossup. I checked prices online after last year's convention, and the differences varied. For the most part, though, cheap stuff (under $40) was sold for cheaper there, but expensive stuff was much pricier than their online counterparts.

Also if you don't like being around people it would be your goddamn nightmare. But if you look hard enough you'll find stuff that the elevens won't sell to us dirty gaijin online.

Most of the American-based dealers will sell stuff that you can easily buy online, but some of the shops sell books, magazines, and manga I probably wouldn't have been able to find online, or even have thought of picking up. One thing I got that I wouldn't have found on my own was a rabu raibu song book for piano.

I don't even play piano, but I might one day, and I want Snow Halation to be the first song I learn.

The Love Live jerseys are actually pretty nice and comfy. Maki's was sold out, and Kotori's was way too girly, so I went with Eli. I think I like her color scheme the most anyway.

Also, is the jersey still too weeb to wear in public or is it subtle enough?
>>
>>143715849
I think it's subtle enough. The general rule is if it doesn't have any anime girls on it or any widely recognized logos, you're fine.
>>
>>143715849
I think the Jersey is subtle enough, nothing on it gives anything away. People would probably just think it's some thing from your past highschool and not notice.

It was pretty good. Some highlights:

-Reina's autograph to go with Kumiko from last year
-Watching the premier of Love Live Sunshine with 1000 other people. It's like going to watch Star Wars opening night, and everyone in the audience is black
-Eir Aoi
-Hearing NANI SORE live
-Saw some WIP screens from Little Witch Academia 2
-Four days of cardio I wouldn't have done otherwise
-Bacon-wrapped hotdogs

I'll be grabbing tickets again for next year. It's fun if you're careful, unlike my dumbass roommate that spent +$1200.

I guess I'm not 100% sure it was me; the staffers that organized the line for the Trigger panel were retarded and made two separate lines. They tried combining them and the result was a mass of 1000+ conventioners following a snake line for like five minutes.

I bought/wore the Maki shirt because I couldn't find any Kotori shirts my size (all they had left was XL and XXL)

As far as california goes,

AX is a must
Fanime is the norcal AX
ALA is pretty decent
AC - Getting bigger and better
TItancon - First year was this year and was suprisingly good for a free con. but its a comunity college con.

You'll get ripped of at any con for really any merch. Some cons have bootleg stuff (pins and shirts and posters is what i mean) you can get for good prices, and I can usually manage to haggle with vendors on the last days with online prices to get good prices. but I only go to cons to mingle with people and DJ.

I wasn't able to go before 2006 but it was really going downhill by then anyway. The real charm of the convention scene was being able to go and see/hear about series you'd never be able to find out about otherwise. Torrenting and fansubs were already getting huge by this point so a lot of the mystery of "what else is out there" was already gone. Really anime conventions from the mid 2000s onward are all about the cosplay and industry licensing announcements. If you're not into cosplay, there isn't really much of a reason to go. Maybe it's worth going if you like to buy fanart, the quality of the artist alleys has certainly gone up, though the self-publishing/printing scene is pretty big now, you can buy a lot of those prints online. I started going to pax east in 2010 and I haven't looked back, my once-a-year convention trip is satisfied.

I think the most depressing thing was going to the Megatokyo panel in 2006 and the giant ballroom was only 1/3 full, and the "questions" to the panelists consisted of butthurt hambeasts complaining about getting trolled on the forums.

Both eupho collector's editions were $150 total, and it got you an autograph session with Chika Ansai. LL jersey was $60, and I checked last night, it was $89 at their store plus shipping. The art prints are probably more of a hassle online, plus I'm supporting the good artists, so whatever. Also I included in the total stuff I gave to friends that's not pictured.

Sometimes they get really good Japanese guests.

This year they had Shintaro Kago and the last couple years had some gay artists like Gengoro Tagame and Est Em. My biggest regret was not going when Usamaru Furuya and Natsume Ono were there but I was too young and inexperienced to travel from the US to Canada. I'm still waiting for them to get a couple great guests like that again to make it worth going to.
