Pictures compiled from three different people. See if you can spot the we-stopped-caring-after-Friday theme. (Image intensive, obviously.)
If you want bigger pictures, click on the images — they’re hyperlinked to the bigger versions (that are like 3 MB a piece). If you just try to view the image itself (in Firefox, for example, doing Right Click -> View Image), you’ll get some small/fucked-up version of the image.

Pretty disappointed we didn’t have much for ya on the Saturday/Sunday front, but at least Friday was decent. I’ll be going to a few other cons this year, so let’s see if I can keep the motivation up past Friday for those.

Goodness me Darksage you are still around?, I thought you would be in prison for sexual harassment by now. :D
Wait, shit. Darksage, is that you? Remember when we were supposed to meet up at NYAF like two years ago? I’m the crossdressing Tenshi in the touhou pic lol.
I think Aho is officially Ahodeado, lol. I run a relatively large touhou community now so I don’t have nearly as much time as I used to for translating. That aside, our main TSer/encoder is bogged pretty heavily in college work so that’s three of the 5-6 jobs down lol.
Good to see you’re still around in the fansub scene, though. How are things going for you in general? (Also, are you by any chance planning on going to Anime Central or AnimeNEXT?)
In terms of the fansub scene… well, I don’t really sub much (I do one-offs for people now). Most of my time’s spent on Crymore, and it’s going pretty fucking well.
For cons… Anime Central was shit, and I’ve never even heard of Anime Next. Sell it to me.
Bad things about ACen? I haven’t been to it myself (First time going in May) but I generally hear it’s pretty good. If anything, Ohayocon gets more flak for its management and stuff. As for AnimeNEXT, it’s more like what replaced NYAF since it got “merged” with NYCC (Read: Purged) It’s a bit smaller than Ohayocon in terms of size, but it’s a pretty nice convention otherwise. Cosplays are pretty decent and there’s usually some interesting panels. The only thing it lacks is location points. It’s in the middle of New Jersey so there really isn’t much around the area. At least with stuff like Ohayocon and NYAF, you had the city to screw around in if you got bored of the con. Not sure if it’s worth your money/time to head over here though, lol. I go to it because of a group of touhou cosplayers and because it’s literally half an hour from my parents’ home.
All right, I might have to skip out on it then. I got four other cons that I’m thinking about hitting up: Anime North, Colossalcon, Sakura-con, and Anime Midwest (sketchy on this one; need more deets).
ACen isn’t necessarily bad. It’s just so… bland and heartless that it feels like a waste of time when it’s all over. I went last year and I doubt I’ll ever head back.
Fair enough. Seems like the only con I might see you at is Ohayocon, then. (Assuming it’s an annual trip for you) I want to go to Sakura myself but I don’t think I can get out of school and get tickets for that, lol. I already had hell skipping afternoon classes for Thursday and the entirety of Friday for Ohayoco.
Well it used to be an annual trip, but after learning that they’re trying to become a general con rather than an anime con, I’m now soured on the experience and won’t be going back.
At least we’ll always have the memories of the game room together!

Nah, I keep it classy both online and off.
That’s good :D, nice pics, but the Teemo hat made my days :P.
Love to see Umineko still getting the love it deserves. ONe of the greatest stories of all time (VN, not the shitty anime adaptation)
http://www.crymore.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/Ohayocon_2014-Sunday-Spice-and-Wolf-Lawrence-and-Holo.jpg Some of these are weird when you click through…
Oh no, what have I done?!
Oh my god, the Humanity!
Okay, fixed. Let’s keep in mind I don’t have an auto-resizer yet.
As for that pic… I think I fixed it. Lemme go through and fix ’em all.
…seriously though, when I click through the images are stretched and sideways. Is that just me?
Everything should be fine now. Delete your cache or try it in a different browser.
It’s working fine now. Crisis averted.
I wonder how common it is for people to walk past someone cosplaying as Beatrice and go, “OOOOOOOOOHHH, BEATORICHE!!!”
I would have, I just recently DL’d the series (Toybox release)
Did the Funi group ever show up?
?
Probably asking if you ever got the chance to talk to them about the atrocious state of Nourin.
Yeah, I did. Suppose I should get around to relaying that story. Lemme go do some Ohayocon write-ups.
Hamtaro best taro.

I think that is from the new season of Pretty Cure or something, but I’m too lazy to google for proof now
Wait, shit. Darksage, is that you? Remember when we were supposed to meet up at NYAF like two years ago? I’m the crossdressing Tenshi in the touhou pic lol.
Holy shit. Yeah, I remember. Man, your cosplay was ace-tier. Soup and I weren’t lying when we said you made our weekend in Ohayocon 2013.
What’ve you been up to recently? Haven’t seen stuff from Ahodomo in a while.
I think Aho is officially Ahodeado, lol. I run a relatively large touhou community now so I don’t have nearly as much time as I used to for translating. That aside, our main TSer/encoder is bogged pretty heavily in college work so that’s three of the 5-6 jobs down lol.

Whoa, there is a chance I will be able to see you at Sakura-con? Woot!
If you’re a smoking hot babe, then yes.

Rob Ford will be flattered to know you came to visit our lovely city for an anime con.
If he’s at the con, I’ll totally do blow with him. Sounds like a fun guy.
Do that, and you’ll probably get a street named after you or something.
