Here are my rough plans for Anime Expo 2012. If you plan on attending, please check out the TL meet-up thread: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=345838


Day 1 - Friday, June 29th


Costume: Haruko from FLCL

[image loading]

As this is the first day of the convention, I plan on running around and checking out the location of everything and figuring out what I want to do for the next few days. My goal is to find some awesome people to hang out or party with that evening (TL meet-up???), but I may keep the day short as not to get tired out early!



Day 2 - Saturday, June 30th


Costume: Nidalee from League of Legends

[image loading]

My favorite and most comfortable cosplay, I'll probably be most active on Saturday! Other than the League of Legends photoshoot at 4pm, I have no plans. I'll probably be all over the place.



Day 3 - Sunday, July 1st


Costumes: Aries from Fairy Tail

[image loading]

Yet another super comfortable costume! Admittedly, I enjoy wearing it to parties because its utter softness is a great way to make new friends (seriously, people want to pet it). I'll probably be tired by Sunday, so I'll take a chill or short day just having the Fairy Tail photoshoot at 1pm. However, this may be one of the best days for TL meet-up, so perhaps that'll happen here!


Day 4 - Monday, July 2nd


Costume: Baneling from SC2 or Nidalee from League of Legends

[image loading]

I feel like the baneling outfit needs another showing, as I really didn't get any good photos of it at Blizzcon, but it is probably my most difficult costume to transport and definitely the most awkward to wear (sitting is a big issue). Thus, depending on how I'm feeling, I may opt for wearing my Nidalee costume again or this extremely adorable steampunk outfit I have. We'll see how it goes! ;D


Are any of you attending Anime Expo? Admittedly, I fell out of the whole anime convention loop
a while ago, so this will be an interesting experience for me. I fear I may feel old! Still, this is a convention I've been wanting to attend for quite some time, so I'm really excited that I finally am able to!

Hm... Shonen types, so action/comedy. My favorite series is probably Cowboy Bebop. When it comes to manga, though, I enjoy all genres.

That's an awesome Haruko costume. I recognized it before I even read the caption above it. Was like, is that the girl from fooly cooly? It's such a weird (and awesome) anime that usually people haven't heard of it. Keep up the costume work

I like the Nidalee costume the best! But Bravo on all of them!

I watched a few of your WoW VLOGS out of curiosity - even though I stopped playing WoW after raiding a bit as a druid tank in BC.

Was on the Twisting Nether, Sylvea - Alliance side, obvs.

I'm only into americanized anime, really. Things like Bleach, Inuyasha, but I think by far my favorite was FullMetal Alchemist. So. Freaking. Good.

But nah, I probably won't be attending. Have fun, though!

Haha, yeah, it is a fairly unknown anime, but I think it has its own cult following due to its absurdity!

Oh man, WotLK was where bears rained supreme, though! Except at the start of Cata, bears were so absurd they had to get nerfed. I was on Eredar, btw.

I've watched some Bleach and some Inuyasha, but FMA is definitely the best there. I generally prefer the lesser known animes, though, and I like manga best of all.

Freaking awesome! I hope I can find you and get a couple pictures because your cosplays are great! I like your Aries cosplay the best, even though all of them are really good :D.This will be my second year, after having a really amazing experience last year. The energy, the positive environment, and just happy people in general really made me enjoy the expo. Really excited this time around because I'll be staying there for 3 days and 2 nights! Hope I can budget my money and just have a lot of fun this time around as well.

Yeah, definitely grab me if you see me! Maybe you'll have to show me around a bit!
