I'm really excited for this year because last year was my first k-con and my first ever anime convention, I didn't watch many animes.

Oh xD Well, me and a friend of mine decided to go back to the hotel room to take a rest, and when we got in there, everyone in the room were laughing their asses off. We asked what was so funny and then they told us that one of the girls in the room threw a piece of cheese out the window and it landed on the roof below our hotel room xDD

Wrath-Chan19 · « **Reply #70 on:** August 16, 2011, 10:00:52 am »

Ah, throwing stuff out of windows can be fun. I remember in middle school we threw a pair of Pajama pants out the window because no one claimed them. There were there for the rest of the year
But that does seem like a waste of good cheese

It looks like there isn't this year. It might be possible to talk to the Director of Programming and seeing if there can be a way to quickly pencil in a small panel like this in the morning (it looks like that'd be the best bet, if she were to say yes, that is).

Randonarnold · « **Reply #111 on:** August 20, 2011, 12:24:18 am »

Anyone here watching any last minute animes before the convention? I started Gurren Lagann and I plan to finish it before the con. I also want to watch more of The World God Only Knows. (I'm on about episode 5, very funny and enjoyable anime) I cannot wait for the con! (I would say start it now, but I still got to earn some money for food and the dealer's hall/artist alley)

Chibachi Nero · « **Reply #112 on:** August 20, 2011, 01:14:41 am »

I'm trying to finish Durarara!! as fast as I can. I doubt I'll be done by the con, since I'm only on episode 6 and I'm gonna be out of town for the week leading up to the con, but I want to get as far as possible. That and trying to read as much Homestuck as possible because I want to be able to talk to all the cool cosplayers without looking like an ignoramus.

Gah, 14 days and still so much to doooo. Where did all my motivation go?!

Randonarnold · « **Reply #113 on:** August 20, 2011, 01:34:32 am »

I finished Durarara!! a few weeks ago, very good series. I enjoyed it a lot, Izaya has to be my favorite character.

Chibachi Nero · « **Reply #114 on:** August 20, 2011, 01:41:07 am »

Yeah, I'm liking it a lot. Think I may see if I can buy it at KCon, it feels like something I'm going to want to rewatch. I like the kids, Kida Mikado and Anri, so far.

That countdown is mocking me...should be sewing, but instead I'm eating cereal and watching AMVs at 1:40 in the morning.

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #115 on:** August 20, 2011, 06:03:37 am »

So soon!!! *runs in a circle until falling over*

I've been watching a lot of anime, too. I'm going to be cranking it to overload the next two weeks though. Next week my wife and I will be having a Miyazaki-thon (or more appropriately, Ghibli-thon), and watching as many Ghibli films as we can get our hands on.

We've also been watching Eden of the East, which I absolutely love. A very enthralling plot and likeable characters. Nice animation, too.

Finished The Sacred Blacksmith before this. Didn't really care for it. Thought it was pretty generic and forgettable.

Aiming to watch as much as possible in the next two weeks. I've got a ton of stuff lined up in Netflix, and also have a lot I'm meaning to rewatch (Le Chevalier D'Eon, Azumanga Daioh, Akira, Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children, Ninja Nonsense, Utawarerumono). That's a lot, so we'll see if it actually happens, heh.

Randonarnold · « **Reply #116 on:** August 20, 2011, 09:03:02 am »

Eden Of The East is one of my favorites, I heard about it at last year's Kumoricon at Funimation's sneak peak panel. I own the first movie, and the second movie should be coming in the mail any week now. (comes out on the 23rd)

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #117 on:** August 20, 2011, 09:13:11 am »

Cool. Yeah, I'm watching through the series, and I've got the first movie in the queue to watch after that. Good stuff.

I love Crunchyroll! It's what I watched Durarara!! on, and I'm also watching The World God Only Knows (and soon Blue Exorcist) on it. 720P, that's all I'm saying.

EveofAbyss · « **Reply #121 on:** August 20, 2011, 09:47:55 am »

Yeah, I stream it through my PS3, and it's as good as watching a dvd. The quality is so clear, I'd have never guessed I was streaming from a website.

Speaking of Crunchyroll, have you watched Deadman Wonderland? That was my last addiction. Still need to finish the last episode, actually. But it was my favorite thing on CR.

I don't think it's that we're a day off, necessarily. Keep in mind, that it also has the countdown down to the second, where as we're going off days only. Right now, as I type, it says "13 days, 21:41:20." It just means about 2 hours & 20 minutes ago, it was exactly 14 days ago.

Hopefully I can get mine done in time. I still need to find a better fitting sweatshirt, but other than that I doubt I'll change much. I also need money for food, at this point I'm not even worrying about spending money anymore. I just need money for I can eat during the con. I don't want to be having Todd Haberkorn signing an autograph for him and then have me pass out.

I am proud to say all my cosplays are done however I will be bringing a sewing kit to con with me just in case because my outfits sometimes rip when I am not looking.

^ That's always a good idea. I think I heard something about the cosplay emergency room thing being around this year, but I don't know if I'm remembering things correctly. I could be delusional from the lack of sleep (I just got off of my shift).
