<P> <a href="http://www.ikkicon.com"><img src="http://ikkicon.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/header.png"></a> <P> Hi! I'm planning on attending <a href="http://www.ikkicon.com">Ikkicon VIII 2013</a>. Anyone else attending? Staying at the host hotel? I want to save some dough and want to know if anyone is booking a room and wouldn't mind a roomy. We can definitely split the cost evenly. I'm very friendly, respectful, reasonable, good hygiene, and the most important... sane. I'm also gay, bi, transgender friendly. <P> If not that's okay. I might just go ahead book a room at a close by hotel myself. Would also like to meet-up and hang with some fellow MaiOtaku members at the con. <P> Send me a message to my inbox to contact me.

@Nerdalous: That picture happened to me at my most recent con, except it was my female friend who was holding my stuff XD . I felt so bad. @Alexis: You can try getting him to cosplay as a simple character from an anime he likes (like Light Yagami, Okabe Rintarou, Random Attack on Titan soldier, etc) and you coincidently "happen" to cosplay as a pairing character with him. I'm a pretty shy person and wasn't so sure about cosplay, but once I put on the clothes and started walking around, I was hooked (even though my cosplay was low quality). @Bigbudaz: I honestly buy the bulk of my cosplay clothes/wigs from people in China on Ebay >.< . Then I special order/commission for special parts of the outfit (Chinese sellers I've delt with tend not to do well with the detailed/quality stuff). IF YOU DO BUY CLOTHES ON EBAY, GIVE THEM YOUR MEASUREMENTS SLIGHTLY LARGER THAN YOUR REAL SIZE. I made the mistake of telling them my exact size, and they made it those exact dimensions. Skin tight pants was not appreciated. "You are the Kurisutina to my Hououin Kyouma, you are the Heroine to my Kento. You are the Horde to my Genghis Khan." Yes, my romantic lines are indeed romantic. It's hard to find cosplay GFs/BFs in the sense that you usually don't have much luck at cons, since most people tend to travel in groups and are constantly on the move (Am I the only one that solos conventions?), are busy, think you're stalking them, or are always on there cell phones texting their friends (been there). Also, it's a little awkward. I think I've finally gotten past the awkwardness of approaching people at cons, and have come to love the awkwardness of it XD My problem is just finding a female that'd put up with my antics. Introverts bent on world domination and restructuring the social structure of society are currently a surplus, as shown on the demand/supply curves of my economic chart I've drawn up to illustrate the demand of said good in modern society. But remember, it only takes one person that "clicks" with you (unless you're getting a harem, but that's technically illegal, so I won't acknowledge such a possibility)

well i got to say valvrave is awsome wish the second season would speed up. and you all should try animefreak.tv its a good site.

Lol I noticed xD Those topics are funneh tho :D

I'm gonna be there all 4 days, might set up a ps3 in my room if anyone wants to come by for fun :) Let me know if you want to meet up! We also order chinese food in 3 am in the morning xD

I remember way back when otakon's dealer's room was swag-a-ton and bandai was giving away t shirts if you could do the grunty race in under three minutes, all three days I went and did it, i still have the mia, helba and blackrose shirts from there I was hooked.

I think any girl that's 5' or under are automatically adorable I almost went out with a girl that was 4' 10" as for being tall im glad im only 6' 1" I had a friend back in high school who was 6' 7" and he was playing volleyball in his class he jumped to hit the ball when he came back down hurt his spine was stuck in a wheel chair for almost a year
