Question: 

Hey guys, love the podcast! i got a quick Question for you! in alot of
animes i’ve watched the protagonist has a major decision in which the
outcome is debated over throughout the entire series. Sometimes in
anime like Futakoi, a harem about a boy and a group of twins who like
him, the series ends with an open ending where their is really no
resolution. how do you guys feel about open ended animes? personally
they make me a little sad and frustrated because i never really got a
resoultion to the plot. thanks for reading and keep doing what you do!

Our top and not top 10 for Anime Conventions.  Note: We enjoy all anime cons we go to and the pros always outweigh the cons.  We’re just tired and slightly cracked out so we just have fun with it.  Also this episode is slightly more explicit.

Top 10:

1. Meeting awesome forum members
2. Interviewing Awesome people like Steve Blum or Melissia Fahn
3. The pervs at the con who buy Kimiko’s stuff
4. Really great cosplayers who are also cool people
5. Really helpful Con Staff
6. Finding something you CANNOT live without and at a good price in the dealer’s room
7. People who are understanding at panels, have a good sense of humor, and are interactive (Like saying Sega at the same time)
8. When people recognize you in (obscure) cosplay and want to take photos with you
9. When you go outside the con in cosplay, in a group, and everyone is like “WTF?!”
10. Being accepted for your anime addiction by a large group

Added later: Companies who come to the con and give out tons of free stuff

Not Top 10:

1. Very large people who smell AWFUL
2. People who are disrespectful of the area and others
3. People who trash the place with food, actual trash or themselves, I.E. ConRats
4. When basic utilities and other basic structural aspects to the convention center don’t work or fail
5. When carpets in hallways smell like urine and/or mold
6. Bad Convention Layout
7. People who want your stuff and lie!
8. People that don’t get the hint
9. Poorly Organized Cons and the jerks who don’t show up to do their panels
10. When it rains at cons
