Have any of you guys ever been to an anime convention?

I haven't been to one but I would really love to. I herd from you that it's a pretty good place to be. With all the anime fans and anime stuff there, it's pretty cool. Newtype does tell where it's going to be held right jimmytheshank?

Yes, the NEWTYPE USA version does. I'll let all of you know when the conventions for next year are as soon as I get more info.

I have newtype subscribtion but I can't actly know where is it. There's never one over here.

You might have to special order it. Check at any comic book store. I'm sure they'll help you

In any case, to answer your question, Jimmy-kun... No, I haven't been to an anime convention yet. The point that they don't host them around here might have something to do with it. I mean, heck, if I want to go to a Witchfest I already have to go to Londen, so anime is definetly out of the question.

Um, Yeah. I suppose anime is a problem in Europe. Oh well, If you ever come to the US, Hawaii, or Japan, try to go to one. Theyr'e a lot of fun.

How often are the conventions held?

I just don't know if they held/they will held an anime convention in here.

Conventions in the US are held usually once a year depending on which one you go to. There are several here in the US. The biggest is Anime Expo in California. In Texas, we have Project A-Kon. And in Japan, they have several conventions, which are HUGE.

Yeah, a friend of mine went to the one in California. Said it was amazing.

Yeah they're great except for those conventioneers who don't bathe during the convention. Going up a crowded elevator is a real treat with those people.

Yeah, all faces shall turn green :) . I guess Gas masks or perfumes should be provided at the entrance.

eeeeew..... Why would they not bathe, I wonder? but perfume wouldn't help much, just add more odors(and some people are allergic to perfumes) , the only real cure is soap and water.

Some of these convention guests are just REALLY HARDCORE. They don't sleep. They just stay up all 3 days and watch anime or play RPG's.
