[/size]There seems to be even an open hostility on the part of the contest staff towards non-Japanese costumes and it's really inappropriate. Last year (2012) there was an amazing group of warriors from an American video game (I forget exactly which one) that was in the cosplay contest and yet they were completely ineligible for anything despite the detailed hard work they clearly put into everything.[/size]

That's absolutely terrible. I've never been to Kumoricon (or any other con for that matter), but if they're that strict, then they should either make it abundantly clear that non-Japanese costumes will NOT be accepted or simply modify the policy.


Also - and this is just a selfish, unrealistic dream - it would be awesome if you guys could book the Nerdcore-rap duo Duane and Brando for a live show. Their videogame song covers are fantastic.

Oh they have made it clear that non japanese cosplays arent allowed in the actual contest, but they let them join in the skits. But that's it. And in the skits, you aren't judged on you're hard work or your costume at all. It's extremely unfair.

(I posted this in another section of the forum as well but this seems to be a more appropriate place)

I would love to see Ally and Sally perform at Kumoricon!

Ally and Sally are twin idols who live in Canada who came to Sakura Con this last year to host a couple panels and give a performance. It was super fun and would be awesome to see them at Kumoricon. Maybe they would come perform if enough people are interested / their schedule allows for it. Check out their twitter here https://twitter.com/moe_twinstyle

I think it would be awesome to have an idol performance at Kumoricon ^^

Pixie:
I reeeealy hope this doesn't count as necro'ing

Turn-based-fighting-game LARP panels.  It would be nice to have an alternative to the much more physically intensive (translation: EXHAUSTING and hazardous to everybody's cosplays) "Boffer LARP" panels... :P


At previous Kumoricons I had pushed for something similar that I had dubbed "gijinka battles," (there are several dead threads in the forums to attest to this).  When I actually succeeded in actually getting my own panel... I flubbed it terribly  :( .
