Kumoricon 2055?
« on: September 06, 2005, 09:06:51 pm »
I 'tag-teamed' between Kumoricon and CascadiaCon this past weekend. Cascadia was an SF con that had 'some' anime programming, I found two Chobit-ses in the hall, the white one and the black one, and just about NO-body else had recognised them. (Poor, lonely cosplayers!) About 5 SF fans recognized my 'Laughing Man' spinning mask.

But I passed by one panel, late in the program, it was a slide show done by a fan in his EIGHTIES. He had been active as a fan since the pulp-fiction 1930's, and was showing b/w slides of conventions from about 1941 through about the '60s. This guy had partied with the likes of Robert Heinlien and Ray Bradbury and Ayn Rand. In anima this might almost be like saying you went bar-hopping with Osamu Tezuka back in the day.

So, based upon the Kumoricons of the past 2-3 years, what's it gonna be like at Kumoricon 2055?!? Think: there will have been THREE generations of teenagers growing up between now and then. Who knows what sort of technology will have been invented, too.

Will we all be making our own anime on personal pod-like animation computers, all in our own styles? Will it still be anime?

Whaddaya say?

In a world gone mad..... (excuse the change of tense...)

The otaku of Portland no longer have a convetnion to call their own. Throughout the northwest, a cancer spreads. What was once a group dedicated to spreading Joy and world peace now only concernes itself with fame and power. Crushing those in it's path, it has laid whole cities to waste for the destruction of one hotel. All groups who have fought it; Convention Staff, Industry Reps, Canadian Mounties, and even the legendary Group Beez whose names have been lost to time; all have fallen before the wrath of Pocky Club.

Pocky Club has a top floor suite with armed security bishonen and Boss Tomu sits behind a desk flanked by an elite quartet of ninja-death glomp cosplay babes known only as the Corvallis four. Pocky Club will refuse to be staff but will be a gigantic sort of yakuza entity, with hentai-like tentacles controlling almost every aspect of the convention.

The con staff will always be working hard to make the convention better and will have become very effective at getting guests and panels coordinated but are dependant on steady supplies of "donations" from Pocky Club so while they deny any official involvement they put up with their corrupt influence rather than end the convention entirely. Most staffers wish they could do more to help, but are in constant fear of the mewling drones that serve as Pocky Clubs lowliest thugs. Assailing staffers who get out of line with ear piercing whines about how last years con was better and that they were misinformed.


NOW, there is a select group of Yojimbo who have refuse to be bought off with pocky and glompings and promise of hot yaoi doujinshi. They are known as Goggle Squad Xenon and will be a force for justice. They  remember the days before Pocky Club was corrupt and even worked with the Yojimbo to help Kumoricon be a safe place. Days they only heard in fairy tales. (more info on the goggle Squad Xenon Team later, but restassured they will be most awesome!)

The only one on the Staff who helps Goggle Squad Xenon is the Bronwyn 9000 Communications System, a Masive computer that has been installed in the hotel underground. "Brownie" supposedly has the brain of an old staff member suspended in a bath of LCL and caffeine to enable her to send information to any staff radio or computer instantly. The only reason that Boss Tomu doesn't control the Bronwyn 9000 is that his long lost love, Vallie the White encoded it with a password that no one knew just before she commited seppuku onstage during the 2014 karaoke contest. Vallie supposedly haunts the karaoke systems of the hotel and can be heard singing haunting melodies in Final Fantasy of Sailor Moon songs. Finally, a man with a mysterious past acts as the Gogglesquad's mysterious sensei he is huge and powerful despite his age. His heavily scarred visage and severe demeanor bely his saddened heart that has been hardened by tragedy after infinite tragedy. He is known as Master Batoonahto.

With the help of these three mysterious individuals Goggle Squad Xenon fights the vile and corrupt Pocky club in the hopes that some day their convention will be free from tyranny and vice.

So that's what I think it'll be like in the dark future of Battle Con Kumori: 2055!


Wow...... I might have to start this as an RPG!
Or a badass manga!
........I need more artists....

EDIT: In a world... (I'll edit it again if I get PMed the bios of the real goggle squaders)

Sounds like we have two alternate futures on our hands! I'll write me as the villain and you guys write me as the hero.

Then we'll have a crossover!
AWESOME!

Honestly though I see Kumoricon growing to about 2500 people and leveling off due to lack of more staff. This would be no problem however because Portland style is not to be a big city con. It is to be successful enough to be comfortable. I hope that that remains so over the years.

Please people, I'll make a Battle Con Kumori:2055 post elsewhere for us all to play in. (as soon as someone gets me the names of the Gogglesquad, all I know is Waffles and thejew)

It occured to me that we may have as many as four warring factions by 2055:

1) The Pocky <strike>Yakuza</strike> Club
2) The Goggle Squad
3) The Yojimbo (Are we allied with the Goggle Squad?)
4) The Joebits (Bakazoku fangirls)

I dunno if the yojimbo are a seperate faction, that's like saying Programming or Gaming is its own faction. They're staff. Goggle Squad is it's own entity that happened to be staff this year.

Who was it that said we were too small a forum for usergroups again?
Hmmm?

I really don't want to go to war with anybody, except in my fanfic, which I WILL write up for next year. I have a lot of research to do for such a cyberpunk epic though. I think that I will make it into an RPG and have 5 specially selected players take the roles of the Goggle Squad Xenon members.

It'll be fun to make up futures for everyone and select who has decendants and who's still alive...

I'd love to see any drawings based on Battle Con Kumori: 2055, I know there's a certain someone else that mentioned some sketches to me already. Hee hee.

I'll write up character designs when I have the whole cast pinned down and I get a schtick for each of the assasins. I need a better name for them though, something that has to do with elite ninja glomp costume killer evil beautiful deadly.........or something...

What would you call the doujinshi with the fuku-wearing Plumber?

I made a joke with my girlfriend about calling Neko_chan's group the Tenchi no Tomu and making a crazy doujinshi of them that parodied Charlie's Angels as they solve crimes and catch bad guys, all while in great costumes.

HEE HEE HEE! Worthy of repeating!

I so hope Brownie sees this. Maybe I'll print it off for future reference.

(BTW Can anyone tell me what the Z in ZOMG is for? I just thought it looked funny.)

The Z stands for nothing.  It is just there to show that your excitment is so great that three letters just wont cut it.  It's like the Z in Dragon Ball Z; it's just _there_.

That was great Tom! ^_^ I was laughing so hard. You have such a great imagination.

Hopefully, when I'm 18 next year, I'll be on staff. I'd love to be security, and fight the evil Pocky Club! I can scare people. ^_^; That is a vantage point of being a six foot tall female with a loud voice and the ability to throw a hundred pound person across a room. *coughs* That wasn't at the con. It was at home, before/after the con.

Negima, you're great! ^_^ You're like me. You always need something to do. Even now, with my classes, I'm bored and need something to do.

Over the course of the next week I'll be outlining some character concepts and stuff. Now keep in mind that I'm going to be sticking to main characters and that while there will be some very clear parrallells, the members of Goggle Squad Xenon will actually be DIFFERENT PEOPLE. They will not be the actual current Goggle squad. The only survivors will be cyborgs and old people, like Boss Tomu and Master Bahtonatu. The heroes and other side characters will be our children or people that happen to be a lot like us.

I am currently figuring out ways to integrate Joe-bits and the Survival Horror Society.
Mwahaha...

Oh, and sketchers, the feel of this is dark cyberpunk, like X meets Ghost In the Shell. You grok?


Oh, if Sailor Mario.... how does the catch phrase go?
"When hunger crawls into the stomachs of otaku, that's when l'il plumber appears...."
Something like that.

Just what we need, my sailor Mario outfit with No Weenies costume additions....

@Tom
Before your last post I already had an idea and drawing for the Goggle Squad but I'll try to make another following your description.  I almost have it done; I just need to finish some minor details, shade it, and ink it.  I'll try to post it sometime soon (I have a DA site) before I start making the Xexon version.

@Tom:

I offered ya sketches via lj. I can alter stuff to suit once you figure out character concepts and stuff, but I was a bit overzealous with enthusiasm for the concept, so I've done a couple conceptual things here and there already. Lol, if they doesn't work for your vision (HEE) you can call 'em fanart *dies!!* but, lemme know if ya wanna see them.

Capice, on the look/feel (which was pretty much what I thought), and on the fact that the majority of characters are at least technically all different people. Grazie for wanting to include the SHS... I'm sure we are ALL pleased and honored. Between this and your camping idea, you just rock. SO glad you're a member. ^_^

I would love to see everyone's art that my little setting intro has inspired so far. I need to be more familiar with the Goggle Squad though.

I mean, sure I know thejew, but what about DarkHobo? is he actually homeless or does he just wear the outfits Batman and Spawn throw in the trash? or maybe he's a goth that rides the trains after getting back from the war.....

Is Mushoku a kaiju like Godzilla? Does he at least have a radioactive breathweapon?

Does Waffles bleed maple syrup?

In order to parody the squad and integrate parts of them into goggle Squad Xenon I need to do research. First thing I'm going to do is go read their fangirl posts and maybe they will shed a little light on it.

If anyone has pictures of the goggle squad specifically let me know, I need faces to go with the legend.

EDIT: When I post the fic chapters where should they go? Mods? anybody? Down in the contests or something? I'm probably going to put them up on my livejournal too so I can just link them from here....

Also, thejew and Waffles are lovers.  Not really lovers, so much as Waffles is walking sex god and he seduces thejew.  So you need to make them both really pretty so that I can write bad fanfiction, yo!

"I feel so alone," he said, "all the rest of the Goggle Squad Xenon are so strong and manly and confident, but I never know what to do."

"If that so?" waffles asked, leaning in.  Thejew cold feel Waffle's warm breath on his skin.

"Please, don't look at me like that." he said, turning away.  Waffles grabbed thejew's chin and turned it sharply so that their noses were mere inches aapart.

"I will look at you however I please." At this, tears began welling up in thejew's eyes.

Waffles leaned in and licked the tears aways.


...and then they made bebes!

EDIT: Because I can spell the characters names right OK GO

I can't make them all bishies, I'm not making that kind of fanfic. However you are guaranteed at least three bishies.

Hmmm... Jewlius Tojiro is the leader of Goggle squad Xenon. Traced across his lithe frame are exotic tattoos, one for each of his many loves lost over the years. Their shapes seem to dance and look alive as Julius fights, the small figures leaping and striking each other. It is said that of the dozens of characters and animals  that line his arms and torso, he has never allowed any to be placed over his heart. That is the place where he will place his final tattoo, for his heart cannot be true until his fight is won and the con is safe from injustice. He longs for the day where his loves name grace his chest forever. Until then he leads the squad from the front with passionate grace.

How does that sound for the first member of Goggles Squad Xenon?

he sound incredibly badass, but thejew *must* be Waffles uke.  It is already canon.  Do I need to send you the video?

(Goggleboys, can I send him the video?)
