Fanime 2012 wrap up.
13 years ago
Well, it's been over a few days for me now and I can say I honestly had a blast. Met a lot of people, got to suit around and made a few meetups/pannels. Friday was crazy packed. After waiting almost three hours to get my badge I went with my friend to the MLP meetup, took lots of pictures and helped him blast some tunes. Then we ran back to my car, grabbed my fursuit and hit the furry costume meetup which could have gone better but that's a story for another time. From there, more suiting around the convention center hall and the MLP pannel where I got some free swag (two buttons, Fluttershy and Rainbowdash's cutie marks.) Unsuited and hit the dealers den and got some more swag. From there we went to troll the protesters, met a few people, had a panic moment with one (She lost a lot of money while going with me to grab my fursuit again.) Met a girl while trollilng the protesters and then made plans to meet up later. Went home, got my rave gloves for the dance but ended up hanging out with her the rest of the night making fun of the drunk morons on the balcony. We ended up calling it a night around 3am.
Saturday was really chill, I got there late (4pm) and went straight in to the hall. Met up with my friend Alex who wanted to go make fun of the hentai showings but had the wrong time and day so we ended up hanging out for a bit then splitting up and regrouping later for fursuiting. Snagged some free donut sushi while in costume and then chilled in the Marriot lounge for a bit and chatted with her and two other friends of hers. We split up so they could head back to their hotel and I went off and ran into another friend, had a cigerette, hit the game room and called it a night around 1am.
Sunday was my last day, which come to think of it, was the least busy. Most everyone there was fading fast. I got there around noon and picked up a pair of Nekomimi ears and a Derpy Hooves T-Shirt. Ran into my buddy Ian and went with him to pick up the commissions he ordered earlier the weekend then brought my costume back out and did a little photobombing while he tried on my ears. Best part of that suiting session was I got some fan art. Some dude pulled me over and wanted to know if he could draw me, of course I said he could. Did more suiting.
Tons of fun all weekend and now I need to recover before Anthrocon in TWO WEEKS! I'd definitely go again, it's not a furry convention but it sure as hell was tons of fun to miss. Especially when it's practically right next door.
Oh yes, did I mention ANTHROCON IN TWO WEEKS!
