HEY! I JUST SAW KIMIKO TONIGHT! And I loved tons about Metrocon. It was very welcoming and I felt so special that people wanted pictures of me. (: I’ll be dressed as Haruhi again tomorrow! And hopefully I’ll stop by the A.A.A. table and say hi.
And I totally recommend the Parapara Bootcamp to anyone! It’s tons of fun and a great way to kill some time in a very hands-on panel. FAVORITE PART OF METROCON FOR SURE.
P.S.- Totally pining for ちびさんデイト. SQUEEEEEEEE.

Metro con ftw! After 2days I hated when it ended but I’ll make sure the last day will be the best day of my life. I met many amazing people and I enjoyed every minute every second. Loved spazzing looking at all the epic items like plushie’s!!! First day I was gaara and for the last day I’m going as sasori. This was my first year to metro and it was the best! Metro staff you guys rule!!!!!

Loved the con, loved the cosplayers and all the panels i was able to attend. Metrocon was a blast! I need to start preparing again for next year already!

I really liked the dealers room and the cosplay atmosphere (especially the Layla, such a nice costume!). This was my first con and I’ll be back next year.

I loved the cosplay!
June 20, 2011 @ 3:25 am
I loved all the cosplay. It was fun to see all the characters from my favorite anime come to life. :]

The con was pretty great all around, I really liked the variety of cosplayers. It’s not all best of the best, but it’s pretty damn solid and a lot of fun to walk around and look at.

While this was the second convention I’ve ever been to, it was amazing. I was having fun the entire weekend. I had a great time meeting the guests, especially Crispin Freeman. The best parts of Metrocon for me were Brad Swaile’s panel on Friday (where I asked him about being in the English dub of Soul Taker); Saturday was the Anime Human Chess Match, especially when most of the main cast from the Resident Evil games went up against Wesker; and Sunday was Anime Addicts Anonymous Podcast’s “The Best Anime You’ve Never Heard Of” Panel, including the first Anime that was shown: “Comedy.” I enjoyed that Anime for two reasons: One was because the animation was done by Studio 4 Degrees Celsius, the studio does the Anime sequences in the Persona games, and second is that they used music from “Ave Maria” and Franz Schubert’s “Erlkönig” (The Erl King), which are two of my favorite pieces of classical music. Overall, I thought this was a great second con for me and I hope to attend Metrocon next year.

I liked cosplaying. I was Hard Gay late on Friday, and everyone loved it. (Also, on the off chance that I win this, I will be on a plane as it happens and might take a few days to get in contact.)
