Have you ever been to an anime convention?

The closest con comes once a year, and is about 4 hours away.
I can survive without going to a building full of fat weeaboos smacking on pocky and glomping random people who are cosplaying their favourite character. c:

I wouldn't mind going to one, but way 2 many weeaboos, out of my comfort zone.

Sorry I'm derailing this thread with E3, whos been there, and was it worth it?

The convention are very good and fun and the best is that you can do wherever you want with all the stuff that they sell there... simply great...

I have been to Comic-Con before but I didn't consider it an "Anime Convention" so I chose the "maybe someday" option.

No anime convention near me.

No...Please don't remind me...There was Otakon and AnimeNext, but like most people here...the problem was always either the money, lodging, or the transport.

I went to otakon twice and the new york anime festival once. There was a big difference. I plan on going to otakon next year again. All in all I like anime festivals, the first one I went to I felt like I was in heaven or something along those lines.

i found the new holiest day on my calender!

i went to conneticon today and got myself a fakku shirt!

I love AX
Ive been going since 1999. It has some good years and not so good years but its still fun to go.

I'm assuming working security counts.

Maybe someday. Nearest one in my country is August. Looking up to it

third time to sakuracon i'm goingto to try and get to more but money is the issue but so far i've liked every con i've been to. though nothing beats the first time. or going with a first timer

Been To the anime festival in nyc and going again this year, then going to anime next right after

I've only ever been to Anime Expo because it's only a couple hours from where I live, so it's convenient. This year was my third time. Normally, I just go to hang out with friends, play some video games, and buy stuff, but this year was different. There was so much stuff that I wanted to do at AX this year that plans had to be made and I still couldn't make it to everything I wanted to be at. It was also the first time I actually went for all 4 days instead of just the last two, so it was kind of exhausting.

I gotta say though, this year's Anime Expo was the best one I've been to yet, and the Fakku x Danny Choo meet had a large part in making Day 3 one of the most enjoyable days of the convention for me! :D

im really am a fan of anime, but i don't get a chance to go to one or maybe im just lazy to go.. plain fan only aside from that there is nothing..
