wait what happend at Sakura con?

When anime started to get really popular more and more parents  started bringing theyre small children.

Once they saw that the majority if anime is really not 'child friendly" they got all offended  and rather than saying 'oh this is not for me' They threw tantrums and demand Sakura con MAKE it for them.

For some reason SC decided to placate the parents. Now we have a 'family friendly' "anime convention"

 SC is the only convention that puts such a huge emphasis on family friendly.

 Its likely this happened due to WA states heavy ' Father knows best' policies but Oregon isnt too far away. I worry that  the same parents will try to take it over too.
All they need is to hear are the words 'All ages" and "yaoi/yuri  party", maybe even just 'party' and its all over.

The only problem that I can possibly foresee with a yaoi/yuri pj party is the whole under-aged thing. Not that we'll actually do anything, just like in the photo shoots, but I can definitely see people worrying about that. Not to rain on your parade or anything! Just something to think about. ^^;


Ehe, I just thought it was a given that it would 18 +  Sure people at the con wont care ( Majority at least) but there always a few of those people would see it and snitch on K-con. The LAST thing I want is for Kumori con to end up like Sakura con and if I were part of it well Id just have to commit seppukku.

See, most people who have posted in this topic are under 18, myself included. : P

And Kcon is technically a family-friendly con. They just make sure to make all the more-adult-themed events after curfew or not officially con events. From what I understand at least. So I still think a pj party before curfew may be possible. We could have it at 9 or 10pm or something. ^^

Yeah, that sounds good.... I don't see why those parents should freak out!!!D: Oh well, it's reasonable I guess... but the sleepover would just be messing around so it shouldn't be too big a problem.

Talk with the Director of Programming. He might have some idea. I've had some conversations with him about the dance contest I'm thinking of holding. He's really helpfull!

"She" thinks this is fine idea.. we've had slumber party type events before with the Sailor Moon slumber party.  If you are interested in making this an official event, come up with some guidelines for it, fill out a panel/event form and send it to me at programming@kumoricon.org.

We are also a family-friendly convention, but I firmly believe you can have "yaoi" and "yuri" and still be so.  And considering that you are looking at pre-curfew for under 18's, I think the strongest you're looking at is shounen-ai and shoujo-ai... but we can work something out ;)

If there are no other volunteers, I can try to head up sending this to the "powers that be".

I think that I would prefer it be 18+ since I'm 20, will be 21, by the con. I am not saying I'd try to put the moves on anyone (I have a boyfriend), but I would especially not want to be suspected of being some.. creepy person that likes under-agers. Maybe I'm just paranoid. I think I like the idea of if it is an event open to under-agers, it'd be Shounen-ai, Shoujo-ai. ^_^

SO, now that's out of the way, any ideas for games or stuff we could do? I suggest maybe general silliness and taking pictures (Cross-series pillow fights? XD), and maybe some type of cute games, like duck-duck-goose or the pocky game (Not sure how appropriate this would be?)

ANY other suggestions? =D

That sounds fun but I think it should just be 18+ after a certain time cause then us younger people wouldn't the chance to have fun. T.T Oh! you could play truth or dare in character or something... that'd be special.... (be merciful I still have a childish mind for party games. XD)

 Thats what happens when your minor. You miss out on the fun. Now if we went around and made EVERYTHING all ages to make all the minors happy what the hell would be the point of being an adult? Nothing but growing old an responsibility,. May as well just kill ourselves before we get there.
( nothing personal, SC and pushy soccer moms have taken all the joy out of being an adult)

 now that I have finished my rant

 I suppose we could do that. Minors do have a curfew anyway and the rest of us could just stay later.

Hah, I like the idea of Truth or Dare, I'm just not sure if that would get out of hand and people would disapprove... Maybe state before we play the game to keep the truth's/dare's PG-13 (IE: Can't dare so-and-so to kiss so-and-so unless it's like, on the cheek. No showing inappropriate body parts, ahem ahem XD)

Also, I kinda agree with TheifsKingHier. I think the idea I like best is starting this as all ages, then when it gets later make it 18+ that way everyone is happy =D

Oh yeah, Sugarlat, if you want to do some research (or I might, your post intrigued me :P) and post the rules for the game here, that'd be super cool! =)

This thread seems to be shaping up to be a very great idea =D Yay for Yaoi and Yuri buddies!

I agree with nearly everyone above. XD I do think that, after the main 'party' or what not, the 18+ people should be able to go and have their own kind of thing together without parents whining about their kids being out too late. (I'm a minor, btw, so I'm not complaining, just merely stating)

Truth or Dare WOULD be fun! ^^

Awesome! I was just about to suggest two parties! A main and a side maybe! Then Everyone's happy! Game rules for Kagome Kagome here!:

Kagome, kagome (かごめかごめ) is a Japanese children's game. One person is chosen as the oni (literally "demon or ogre", but translates in games as "it") and sits blindfolded (or with his eyes covered). The other people join hands and walk in circles around the oni while chanting the song for the game. When the song stops, the oni speaks aloud the name of the person behind him, and if he is correct, that person will exchange places with the oni.

Lyrics:
 Kagome Kagome Kago no naka no Tori wa
 Itsu Itsu deyaru? Yoake no ban ni
 Tsuru to kame ga subetta.
 Ushiro no shoumen daare ?

It's not really that hard. You just walk around in a circle around one person and sing the song. After it's done the person in the middle guess's who it is and if there right they switch. [My Version]

I started filling out the form to make this an official event. When I get the time, I'll make a post with all the information they want (I can't straight up copy/paste the pdf file *sigh*) to make this an official event/panel. Then everyone can help me fill it out so that it will be all polished and nice before I submit it =)

OH! I know of a GREAT Japanese game that even has a freaking AWESOME movie made after it. It's technically like Japanese tag/hide-and-go-seek, but you have to wear masks.

There are four or five taggers, all wearing different Japanese demon masks, and one main god, wearing the fox god demon's mask. The people who are able to get tagged wear fox masks. Whoever wins the game, the last one standing, gets to be the fox demon god. =o

The game is called Otokoyo, and the movie is called Kakurenbo. Here's some links for information:

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0489102/plotsummary

http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/encyclopedia/anime.php?id=4485

I couldn't find much about the game, but it kind of explains it in the movie summery. =)

My only concern is that if we decide to have this be an actual event, we'd either need a really big room for a game of tag, or move outside or something, which could result in people going "WTF where'd the PJ party go?!". If we do hold it outside, I'm not sure if K-Con would list it as an actual event. XD I like the idea of it, I'm just stating the possibilities for problems could could arise.

  That is why people are skeptical about allowing minors into 'adult' events, and why some 'adults' should not be allowed either) Its all about maturity.

 Seriously, pissing people off is the last thing we want to do if we intend to make this event happen.

I think just having a room of any size would be fine. Cuz even if people think it's an awesome idea, that doesn't mean all of them will be able to show up, especially since a lot of cool stuff happens at night. If it does end up being really crowded, then we'll know if we ever do it again to get a bigger room! ^^ Or we could maybe set it up in the same room as the yaoi/yuri activities that take place after curfew. The problem with this is if they need to set something up before hand etc etc, but it would make a bit more sense, I think. But I honestly don't know if that would work at all, as I don't know what all goes on after curfew. XP

I'm trying to plan this as an actual event, I've just been crazy busy with Sakuracon planning n stuff. You fill out a Panel form thing, it's in PDF format though so I can't copy/paste the sections, so that I can get your guys advice/opinions before I submit it. You submit it to an email or through the mail, haven't gotten that far yet. But yes, it is in the planning stages!
