Hmm… Looks like a lot of people are talking about AUSA plans. I’m going to be staying in town though. Anyone else not going to AUSA and interested in doing something around the city this weekend?


I’ve been taking a break and doing some crochet and my mother has been giving me regular clothes to alter/repair but I’m probably going to get back to working on costume stuff soon. I figure I’ll finish up the clothes for the Miss Scarlet version of Daphne first. Then, my next projects are probably going to be Kyoya and Youko since I’ve started buying fabric for them. Not sure yet what else I’ll be doing for next year. If anyone wants to do a group with me for something I've cosplayed/am planning to cosplay, let me know. It's been ages since I've had a group. ;_;






So far, it looks like my con schedule next year is:

Anime Boston, April 2-4
AnimeNext, June 18-20
NYCC/NYAF, October 8-10

I’d really like to add at least one more con to that (especially since I’m blah about AnimeNext’s new location and blah about NYAF being merged into NYCC) but not sure what could work. :-/

Katsucon is out since it falls on Chinese New Year. I’d love to do Costume Con again but it’s in Milwaukee next year, which is too far to be feasible for me. T_T (I checked and the shortest trip by train is nearly 24 hours!) Although I’d love to see some Canadian friends again, Anime North is a pretty long trip and in May which would put it between AB and ANext; I’ve found that trying to do 3 cons within less than 3 months is very tiring so it doesn’t seem like a very feasible idea either. :-/ There’s a lot of stuff I dislike about Otakon and I don’t enjoy it nearly enough, considering the cost. So, I’d rather not go back unless there’s a really good reason.

Anyone have suggestions? What’s worth traveling for and within feasible distance of NY by bus or train? Is AUSA good since a lot of you seem to go? Other ideas?

My friends and I are going to attempt to go to Otakon. Hopefully, it'll work out. We were going to go to Anime Boston, but then we found out it fell on Easter weekend DD8 I have a classmate who i just learned is going to Anime USA. She's really excited for it, so I'm supposing it's good.

Good luck with making your new costumes x3 I can't wait to see them x3

A lot of people seem to like Otakon although it doesn't work out very well for me due to the type of costumes I like to make. ^_^; Anime Boston is my favorite con and the location is very convenient although kind of expensive. I don't mind it falling on Easter weekend but I have heard some people say it's a problem for them.

I would LOVE to do an Ouran group with you for those costumes.

If you're still interested when you get back to the US, that would be cool. :-) I'm going to try to do mine for Anime Boston but I'm sure I'll be rewearing it at other cons after that. I'm planning to do mine in velvet and brocades since they said the outfits were based on 18th Century French costumes.
