Conventions 101 - A Guide for Newbies

[Pandakitti]

I'm going to my first anime convention next week. Im not entirely sure, but i believe that if you dress as a character, the character doesnt have to be one made for an anime. since i just found out that was going yesterday, i have no time to make a costume of an exsisting char. could my char be one that i created myself? my char is a grey wolf ninja or something like that. im letting my friends decide what clothing im waring.

Wow! I wish I had seen this before I went to my first anime convention last night. I went to Oni-Con 2009 in Houston, and had a total blast. I eventually learned some of the stuff you have up through experience and through what my friends told me, but it would have been nice to have walked in with some degree of knowledge as to what to expect. Thank you so much! I definitely feel prepared for next year now! ^__^

Thanx so much for posting this thread! I had a convention coming up in Feb. and it's gonna be my first. heheh, I had some money ( $28 ) and I was planning on buying a $25 Gaia cash card but after reading this I'm going to save up my money.
Even though I still want that cash card....

This is a frequent occurance these days.
