REMINDER
ONLY 6 MORE DAYS!
the guest list got huge between now and a couple weeks ago
I fully expect them to drop more bombs because it seems like a very AX thing to do this year
Anyone still need a room? I'm at the JW Marriott with some friends just trying to get a better split.
It be $250 for 4 nights (30th-4th). Email me if you're interested.
Since AX has been announcing like crazy, who are you still hoping for them to announce as a guest?

Anyone need a ride from Vegas to LA? I'm looking for one or two more to help with gas.
watch out for this creep!
So how's the party scene this year? Between the chill mixer and the rager that always gets shit down, I'm ready for the mixer.

just take cover until he runs out of promethium
>>9069040
i heard he stalks girls. his cosplays are creepy.
If that anon is still around who didn't know whether to go Saturday or Sunday because they didn't know if Uchikoshi was going to be at Aksys' Sunday panel, Aksys just announced (and it's been added to the official schedule) that Uchikoshi is getting a panel @ Saturday, 3:45, LP3
Hope to see you there, anon!

>>9068693
Should I bother going?
I will be going alone in the hopes of finding a couple of friends who enjoy gaming and anime but aren't complete spergs and maybe finding a woman who also enjoys these things but isn't a complete sperg or unredeemingly ugly.
Badge pre-reg or purchase at venue? What are lines like for waiting until the day of? I've only ever pre-registered and the lines seem to be hit or miss for wait time each year.
>>9069186
>should I pay a little early and save $20 or should I pay there and arbitrarily lose $20?
Well retard. What do you think?
>>9069178
It depends, do like to socialize with randos that walk around? If so yes; otherwise, you'll just end up alone. If you see someone cosplaying something you know, use that to strike up a conversation. It works even better in lines because you are stuck there. Just be confident and you will be fine anon.
>>9069189
Money isn't really an issue, especially if the line for on-site purchase doesn't have a history of awful wait times.
Sushio of Trigger studio to attend AX 2016
>http://www.anime-expo.org/studio-triggers-sushio-mai-yoneyama-join-ax-2016/
>>9069195
Socializing with random people is no problem. I often go solo to places simply because it's easier to do exactly that.
What I'm wondering is what the chances of finding what I'm looking for are? Is this the right kind of place to go to to find those things?
I've been told I'm good looking for whatever that counts for. I've tried the "normie" way of things and while I can operate just fine and have friends and all that, I just don't feel like I fit which is why I'm trying this and want to know if I'm in the right place for it.

>>9069219
Find a panel about a genre interest as yours, see how people are reacting to see if any of them are autistic man children and try to make some conversation.
You can make a friend when you're in a place to reveal your power level comfortably.
>>9069195
>socialize with randos that walk around
Fuck that shit I got panels to go to and 5 hour lines to wait in.
>friends won't ever do anything I want to do
Go solo. Pretty much just meet up for late night drinks at the end of the day and tell them about all the awesome things they missed out on.
>>9069219
You might make a friend but definitely don't try looking for girls. You'll only annoy them, they're not interested 99% of the time.
What cosplays are you not looking forward to seeing?

Don't go, its just annoying and edgy people
>>9069412
Last meet-up i went to was pretty shit senpai.
Still i mean he might be the sort of person that enjoys it. Anyhow if they have nothing better to do they should go. Maybe they'll make a nice friend
>>9069475
I'm a girl though. I just read the last thread and it seems it's going to be bad.
>>9069492
I'm pretty sure that's just people shitposting. The kik group is just that, a group of people you can talk to and if you wanna hang with some of those people just make plans with them. Not all of us are gonna meet up, a few of us are just gonna get together for lunch/dinner. So if you wanna join and meet people, go ahead, but if you wanna believe the shitposts, that's fine too. And we got a few other girls in the group too who pretty cool, so try meeting with them?
>>9069492
Anything coming out of kikis going to be bad. Same with 4chan.
The girls always make it seem worse than it actually is. Most of the guys form their groups after a few minutes and then you'll have a select few trying to quench their thirst. My suggestion is to go to the group, spend a short while finding people you want to hang out with, then make plans with them for later.
>>9068807
4nights? you're checking in june 30 and checking out July 5th?
If anyone needs a ride to AX going south, I'm your ride. I can pick you up and we can carpool down that if you don't mind staying til Sunday. Leaving on Thursday and wont be going north til Sunday.
So what's everyone cosplaying?
I'm only going for Saturday, gonna bring my itabag and cosplay one of the matsus
>>9069542
from where are you leaving?
>>9069550
>>9069492
You gotta think about it this way. You want to hang out with a bunch of losers who frequent a meme forum at an anime event. Half the people you'll meet probably suffer from depression and autism. Other half are probably just complete pretentious assholes and are really mean. Do you really want to meet up with and hang out with these kind of people? I mean I guess it's okay if you're lonely.

Here's my lineup. Iowa is almost done!
>>9069497
It's probably the same person in every thread shitposting the kik group, for whatever reason. If you're interested, just check it out and see for yourself. If it's not your cup of tea, then you can always leave the chat.
>>9069618
A lot of people in the kik are actually pretty cool. Just because you're autistic and can't socialize doesn't mean everyone else is.
>>9069692
I'm not in the kik, why would I want to hang out with a bunch of gross nerds?

Too bad Iowa has already been done perfectly.
Does the Bonaventure check for wristbands, or is that policy reserved for specific hotels like the JW?

>>9069725
No you can't because not everyone who's going to the event watches anime or has a neckbeard but everyone who's in the kik is from a meme forum. Why would anyone ever want to hang out with someone they met on 4chan?
>>9069769
Most people go to AX because they like anime. The few that don't well ¿¿¿¿.
Anyways your on 4chan. Thereforr you're one of those shitty autistic neck- beards or are probaly someone pretentious.
your wasting your time shitposting, i wonder where in those 2 catergories you fit.

Okay? Does this somehow mean you can't say that about the entire event? What's the context of this statement?
>Anyways your on 4chan. Thereforr you're one of those shitty autistic neck- beards or are probaly someone pretentious.
We're not even talking about me. We're talking about 4chan meetups and the kik group.
>your wasting your time shitposting, i wonder where in those 2 catergories you fit.
Your post contributed nothing to this discussion. Ad hominem more please.
People want to know if the meetups are worth going to, I say they aren't and you just want to call me names :^)
>>9069816
This is a troll post, please do not respond.
>>9069816
>>Okay? Does this somehow mean you can't say that about the entire event? What's the context of this statement?
Nah but why would they go if that's the kind of people going to the event?

You're right.

Is AX this disorganized every year? Why is the largest con in North America still announcing big-name guests merely a week out from the con?
>>9069898
rumor is shit happened internally leading to many delays
while they usually do announce some people fairly late they usually have the bulk of it done by mid june
Unless they announce any other surprise guests that blow me away, I think I've got my schedule figured out. Part of me hopes they don't add anyone else, in case I'm forced to make a hard decision later down the line.
What are you all planning on attending? I'm for sure going to the Japan Super Live event, the official Sailor Moon panel, the Studio BONES panel, and the Cowboy Bebop Voice Actor Panel.

Overwatch
It's not that I have anything against Overwatch, it's that I barely kept track of it while it was being the hottest new thing. I know I'm going to feel like a fish out of water.
Anime Expo is less than a away, what anime should I be watching so I can be feel included in everything? I usually just watch whatever catches my interest, but this year I would like to really go out and purchase things and see stuff from anime I've seen or like. What's super popular or going to be at AX this year?
Hey seagulls, /fa/ggot lurker here. Anyone going to the Harajuku fashion walk on Sunday? I just want to wear my edgelord fit and potentially run into others who are into Nipponland designer wear that I've only seen online.
>>9070073
play undertale
watch the overwatch cinematics
those likely will be the most popular cosplays if you want to know what's up
sadly not alot of actual ANIME or manga fans go to conventions anymore, but that shouldnt bother you since you dont seem to be watching anything either
>>9068999
AX, please bring Alex Hirsch for Chrissakes
>>9069705
The wristbands are just there to scare people from overcrowding rooms. They don't really check that stuff.
>>9070218
This. I've been going since before they first pulled the wristband shit and they've never actually enforced it. Last year's "implementation" at the JW was sudden, at least to me, and they still didn't check it once.
>>9069670
We need to take selfies. Work will get a big kick out of that
Got my line up all hashed out.
Just gotta make the arm socks and skirt for Lapis and finish off my dress for nurse joy. Should all be doable before con.
>>9069670
Yoooo I remember you from Sak meet. We should hang.
2016 lineup
Still debating if I want to go.
It would be my first anime con really, but I'd probably go mostly for the dealer's hall / artist alley.
>>9070361
Do it, even if you don't buy anything, the dealer's hall is some of the best window-shopping ever!
>>9070361
From experience, AX is probably the best Anime con to start with, mainly because of the industry guests and the large volume of casual anime fans it attracts, finding friends ends up being easy in the process.
>>9070361
AX probably have the best Exhibit hall but you have to line up a few hours and waste a ton of money. Last year I lined up for 5 hours for Good Smile Co.
>>9070389
>tfw lining up for 2 hours for the exhibit hall line then another 1 1/2 hours in the Good Smile line for a figure that ended up being not being in danger of selling out even on the last day
>>9070395
>lined up at 8am for the "get in the convention line"
>line up at 9am for the "get in the exhibit hall line"
>line up at 12pm for the "good smile co line"
>get my figures at 2pm
At least we're not casuals.
>be exhibitor
>waltz in to buy stuff
>change to normal attendee badge I borrowed if necessary
>>9070480
It depends. Do you get into the exhibit hall before anyone else?

I honestly don't know since it'll be my first time working at AX. I can show up like 2 hours before the halls open but I don't know if any of my coworkers will be there (or they'll only be there to set up the booth proper) and they'd give me the stink-eye if I tried to get away like that. Not to mention that the booths I'd like to buy from might also be in similar stages of set-up and definitely not open for business.
>>9070305
With those cancerous cosplays you should just stay home.
>>9070585
What booth are you gonna be working for?
>>9068693
Fuck me. I thought I was completely done with cons last year; I didn't even buy a ticket to AX this year since I'm too busy with life then suddenly they announced Zun panel.
What the fuck? When is this panel? Does he have a booth? I've heard news that it was on 9:30 pm Friday, but this is such a late announcement.
Fuck my laifu
I fucking hate men so much. There better not be a single male at our /cgl/ meetup.
>>9070634
Then you better make it yourself senpai.
And gather all the "females" without letting any male slip through.
Good luck!
>>9070634
Females never show up at socal /cgl/ meetups. If you think it's a girl you're wrong. It ALWAYS has a dick.

How can you guys STILL not be finished with your costumes thing close to AX? AX is literally only once a year, same time frame. And yet, people are only wearing half their cosplay because they procrastinated this much?? Or even better, finish in a hurry and just have a half ass "full" cosplay. Both these scenarios seem just lazy to me. It seems people just want to cosplay so many different characters during the con that they don't care about the quality of their costumes. Is this how cosplay is these days? It seems like people wanna say " oh I'm cosplaying so and so" just so they can say it. It's like there's no effort at all.
>anyways
Can we just get a time and place for the /cgl/ meet? I don't care about the kik drama I just wanna go.
>>9070671
*this close to AX

Do you remember those projects in school you thought you had lots of time for and then suddenly it's a week before and you're nowhere you should be ? It's like that
Fanime was also just a month ago and a lot of efforts before ax went to that
>>9070681
If it's too much on your plate why not only do just one and not have shitty cosplays? Or half finished cosplays?
>>9070679
Pls no more cucking. I just won her back recently.
>>9070683
Because they'd rather go down fighting
>>9070689
While looking like shit and possibly making a fool of themselves.
I understand now.
ZUN's a guest this year? I was not prepared for that.
>>9070671
I don't want to hear that coming from someone who buys their costumes.
Only 5 more days until I leave to LA
I'm. So. Fucking. INTENSE.
On a more serious note I know from past con experience here that exhibit halls can build up lines but do you guys seriously wait 2 hours to get in? Are they that crwo- actually now that I think about it that's a stupid question.
I'm hoping to snag a camoflauge Snake Nendoriod for a buddy here, really hoping they don't sell out.
>>9070123
Is this bait? Ax isn't going to announce a disney tv show producer as a guest, much less a producer for a fucking show that ended months ago.

Wow, I never fucking post but that made me scream YES.
I really think that the special snowflakes shouting from the rooftops that they MADE their cosplay does nothing to add to the fact that they look like shit.
you either have the body, or the sewing ability, and those who have both can go win awards or some shit.
/cgl/ needs to realize what /fa/ was built on.
there are models AND designers. one looks fab, and one sits and sews. and they both get recognized. simple as that.
Cosplay = costume + play = designer + model
How many cosplayers are gonna get reported this year for being too revealing?
>>9070786
none
Almost all of the pices of my cosplay are here. just waiting on the wig. Hopefully it arrives like shit and the quality isnt to bad.
>>9070808
Its happening more and more
>>9070585
It's pretty common for vendors to do "pre-shopping" close to open. Of course you'll have to work it out with your boss/coworkers, but it's not uncommon to see vendors running around before the hall opens to buy stuff or line up early.

>>9070702
>On a more serious note I know from past con experience here that exhibit halls can build up lines but do you guys seriously wait 2 hours to get in?
You either pay $300 for a premier pass and be one of the first people into the exhibit hall, or you wait out in the sun for hours to be let in after the premier people, or you wait even longer out in the main lobby until the premier people AND the people in the exhibit hall line get in before the exhibit hall is open to everyone

Maybe one day I'll cosplay as Cheza.

AX CEO gave interview to ANN about the convention and that youth protection program. Anyone buying his words?
>>9069213
So is Sushio just going to be having a 2 week vacation in the US since he's a guest at AX, then Anime Midwest for the next weekend?
>>9070973
he dances around the issue of whether it was a mistake. it's politalk bs. rule is to never say you're wrong.
>>9070992
he sounds like Lattanzio-Lite and that cannot be good...
>>9071032
ANN interviewed Ray Chiang (SPJA CEO after Mark Perez left). First few questions were normal stuff and then ANN went with the youth protection questions (and posed it as a negative thing). Ray goes off on some BS about how they want to make the convention super safe (no other convention in the US like SDCC, Sakuracon, Fanime, NYCC, etc have a stupid policy like AX does). He dodges the issue and says they'll revisit the policy with input from industry partners. Spoiler: they already got input from the industry who told them it was stupid.
One thing that stood out for me is how he said that he had never been an attendee before joining the SPJA. I believe there was a part about how they won't forget where they came from (implying that they still remember their time as a small fan convention). You weren't even there, Ray.
>>9070943

I'm screwed. Ordered a piece for my cosplay three weeks ago with "10-14" day shipping. No sign of it and tracking hasn't updated since it left the country.
>>9071284
When did you buy your ticket? I got mine in black Friday and didn't get the email.
>>9071284
I didn't get one but I registered a long time ago. I'm curious, anyone want to provide a screencap?
where all my /v/ bruhs at?
>>9071284
jesus christ
I registered on Thursday and didn't get that e-mail
>>9071284
got the same thing along with my group. This isn't good at all.
>>9071474
>>9071296
>>9071284
This is makin' me nervous.
I'm getting a military discount pass, (two) and I'm going to be obviously standing in line for it but do you think there will be a chance they run out of badges...?
Well I just preregged about an hour ago with no problem and no email about closed registration or anything.
who else gonna line up all night for autographs? can we team up so i can have bathroom breaks.. ?
>>9071495
The con doesn't run all night.
>>9071084
I'll be there for most of it if any of my gatherings don't mess with it.Sad to say Im not doing my jjba cos that day though
>>9071496
hmm, i was under the impression people were lining up prior to midnight for autograph tickets? i know distribution starts at 8, but when do lines open then?
>>9071510
That's only "slightly" (fucking) insane and shouldn't be allowed at all.
>>9071510
Con closes at 12 IIRC, and all ongoing events tend to be transferred on to Westin convention rooms past that hour. I don't know if that's the case for the signing you're going for though.
>>9071529
Grateful enough to be my friend at con and tell people we meet that we've been friends for years?
>>9071564
sure, i don't mind being your stand-in old friend for the entire con- why would you want that though? we can craft an elaborate backstory to go with it and shock the masses.
please help me secure my place for the autograph session i'm after!
>>9071385
Ordered on Black Friday also, no email for me.
>>9071495
I am? I mean, I guess it depends on if I see people waiting in line too since I believe it says that autograph ticket lines will be outside the con along Pico.
I'm also going for one guest only (TMR), which one are you after?
>>9071586
I'm mainly after Kazuya Tsurumaki for the FLCL Ultimate edition box I posted about before.
>>9071593
Ahhh, I see. Well, it looks like we'll be lining up different days then, otherwise I'd chill with you. Good luck getting that ticket, anon.
>>9071586
person you're replying to, i'm going for a saturday autograph unfortunately. good luck anon!
>>9071475
I wonder how much they discount for military ID. I got mine when it was only 65 dollars
>>9071284
>>9071294
>>9071474
Post a screenshot of the email then, you're all trolls until then.
>>9071475
if you're going day 1 you're fine because it's a friday and people will still be at work
Do you get some way to get an autograph easier with an exhibitor's pass?
>>9071766
>if there's no official line someone will just make an unofficial one and move it when the official one is okay to make
Yeah all you do is cut the line when they make the official one and ignore the complaints of the unofficial unsanctioned linecucks
>tfw Wolf's Rain was and is my favorite anime
>tfw want to get an autograph from BONES founder
>tfw I have no merch of it to get signed in the first place
What are the odds there might be some Wolf's Rain merch I could get at the exhibit hall?
>>9071800
that does mean you're going to be out there bumfuck early too and hovering around the area to detect just when the official line begins
>>9071788
only if it is a company run and not AX run autograph session requiring tickets that are first come first serve and distributed in the exhibit hall. those autograph sessions will not be advertised on the AX schedule so you'd have to check the individual booths or company social media for information.
>>9071837
>that does mean you're going to be out there bumfuck early too and hovering around the area to detect just when the official line begins
Is this your first year at AX?
Just pay one of the younger homeless people from skid row to stand in line for you.
>>9071203
:^^^^)
>>9071848
no one actually pays people to do it, just jokes about it, much like you are joking about cutting the line
>>9071831
A lot, they sell some pretty obscure goodies in there.
>>9071857
Oh man, hype. I'm always hoping for Ginga Nagareboshi Gin/Densetsu Weed merch, too, but I think that might be a little too obscure.
>>9071615
It's $50 for the four day pass.
>tfw that price is what got me to go to Anime Expo and get a cosplay despite living in florida
>>9071762
>day one
In fact, I'll be there for day 0. They sell the badges day zero right??
>>9071881
Jacksonville?
>>9071884
Unless something changed day 0 is prereg pickup only. onsite begins day 1
>>9071897
Hohohoho you caught me.
Might be kinda obvious since I'm military and its either that or Mayport.
>>9071905
FUCK, I was planning on getting them day Zero!!!!! Thanks for this information though anon, it saved me the waste of time of us going over there.
>>9071906
Im in one of the squadrons here in Coronado myself. Have fun when you go.
>>9071905
So if we bought them in August, we can probably get them at Day 0, right?
>>9071915
Helo? VP here.
>that easy VP lifestyle
>>9071916
that would mean you preregistered so yes
>>9071856
>no one actually pays people to do it, just jokes about it, much like you are joking about cutting the line
Eh, I was joking about paying hobos, but it I've actually paid other con attendees in the past to stand in line, by the end of day 1 some people are already low on funds and are glad to have $20 in cash at con
>>9071924
I did pay someone to get me an autograph for $20 because it was limit two and the person was only getting one thing signed. Was hanging out with my friend in front of said person though.
Speaking of which, how much money you guys bringing to the con? I'm thinking card obviously, but probably $200 in smallish bills for artist alley and stuff.
>>9071912
The way I see it they know they're going to have a shitload of prereg pickups to deal with so having people allocated on day 0 to onsite reg which they may or may not have a lot of (and usually no one onsite is coming day 0 because there's nothing to do) is a misuse of resources. Maybe if they put onsite into the same stream as prereg pickup and that sounds like a complete waste of time for those people because the day after they can just waltz in and get their onsite badge in a few minutes.
