It was pretty tame in comparison to other threads tho that didn't get deleted.
Time to share, gulls. I'll start.

Day 1 cosplays are usually really dumb ones my friends and I do. One time we did some half assed Umineko that was made with some inside jokes and shit, but I look pretty generic anime girl and mostly unrecognizable.

What character?
Anyone else going this weekend?
I'm looking forward to being incredibly stoned the entire time.
>>9057817
Must be nice anon!
This would be my first time attending. How about you?
>>9057925
Yes! I had a cosplay lined up, but wig got ruined at the last second so I guess I'm just going to be a regular anon.
Anyone else have cosplay plans?
I was at an anime convention and I was cosplaying as a shirtless ninja. I noticed there was this older dude that was trying to discreetly follow me around and check out my shirtless body from a short distance away. Eventually he went off and left. Even though it was kinda flattering, it was a little creepy. I haven't told anyone that this happened until now. Not sure what I should have done there if it happened again. Any advice?
Congrats now you know how it feels to be a woman.
Get con security if you are being followed. If concerned, try not to be alone at the con. Stay with friends.
Also, please do not make an entire thread for yourself. "Creepy con stories" and including your own story is fine, just "My creepy con story" is not.

So much drama, who needs cable tv!
part of this group? post the cringe.
just an outsider...? Ready the popcorn!
>>9055575
I feel like this should be in the Britfag thread, but I'll bite.
What drama?
>>9055575
you should just post the shit that goes on up here in the britfag thread when it's relevant.
i don't know if there's any 'drama' unless it's between people in certain friend/cosplay groups.
the only relevant thing about scottish cosplay is that it fucking sucks.

Post a drama example to get the thread rolling
Previous thread: >>9052024
In the previous thread we had a lot of post-Animecon discussion, mentioned an 29 year old Slender cosplayer who sexually harassed a girl, shared some exclusive behind the scenes information, that waifu car, ideas for an 18+ dealer room section and finally a lot of drama involving Pedro >>9055199

Whoops, guess that's what happens when I make a new thread during a bathroom break.
>>9055395
Shit happens, literally.
I am excitedly getting ready to start working on my next cosplay, but I have a bit of a problem. Ever since growing out my beard I find myself with very few options of who I can now cosplay as. I don't want to just slap a beard onto any character, but maybe it isn't such a bad idea. What is everyone's thoughts about this trend? Should I just have fun with it, or should I be ok with the option of Thorin or...Thorin?
Either look up characters with beards or don't cosplay. If you do a character that hasn't one got one when you do, you're basically saying
> my beard is the only interesting part about me, so I JUST HAD to have it for this.
Haven't seen one of these recently! Post
'em!
Also, anyone know the group who does the Tales of Tales panel?
>tfw no qt Judas cosplayer to cosplay with
I cosplay pic related but I've never taken any pictures in said cosplay, sorry for lack of contribution.
I always tell myself I'll go to a Tales of photoshoot but never end up doing it.
>Tales of Tales panel
Do they go to multiple cons because I recall a Tales panel at Anime Midwest last year. And I'll never go to another again because it was literally nothing.

Con...
Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.
So how did everyone at A-kon do? It was my first year and my profits were on par with a smaller local con, so not sure how to feel.
>>9041915
I did well. On par with anime Boston, about 7k.
Anybody having issues with paying taxes for Acen? I mailed in my check and payment coupon on 05/23 but nothing has been deducted from my bank account. Is it normal for them to take this long or do you think my mail got lost? I'm getting nervous because you have to make a payment within 10 days of the event.
