I was wondering, are any of you going to the cosplay meet ups in Chicago this coming weekend (20-21)? I hear there's a general one on Saturday and for those still in the Hetalia fandom, there's one on Sunday.

Mind if I ask where I can get info on these meet ups?

<~Chicago. You should go, ACEN is a blast, I was on staff there..fun times.

[Marbleyes]

The last time I went to ACEN, I was 12 years old. Man, I felt so little. xD I'm now 19 and I hope I can make it for at least the Saturday portion.

[ToasterPuppy]

You know since you all are very Chicago based I don't really comment a lot but I do lurk XD ACEN is just so darn expensive when the travel and hotel fees add up XP

[MangoFedora]

I'm a new cosplayer, going to the upcoming ACEN I go to columbia college, so I'll be riding the trains up there.

I plan on being

Marceline the Vampire Queen from Adventure Time with Finn and Jake
Seraphim from Kore Wa Zombie Desu Ka
Toph Bei Fong (adult veresion) from The Legend of Korra

(though I will most likely just be different outfits of Marceline... I'm a poor college student haah)

I'm also looking for a Princess Bubblegum sooo.... lol

Went last year with a few friends, but I'm unsure if they'll be returning. So gotta make more and new ones! Basically I got a small taste and want more.

I'll be hopefully staffing there this year too.

Acen is always a must for me. Lol, I have been going the last 5 years, and still haven't been to a panel. Only con I can spend the whole time just wandering around, or taking pictures of people

[tekkaman_01]

is their anyone from southern Il in here?

[pkmntrainerGina]

hi i will be moving to indiana in 7 weeks. very close to chicago!! i hope to going to acen 2013. it will be my first con.

[Noellisty]

I'm just a bit north of Chicago I don't go to Acen, but I do go to other anime and comic conventions nearby the area~

Wow, this topic sure fell pretty far back...so who here went to Kollision Con?! I personally thought it was kind of boring at times and was a little organized. Also, what the hell at that karaoke machine?! o.O Not even 1 hour after opening ceremonies I ended up going to the mall near by, which sucked btw. Although it was fun getting strange looks from people

Lol, although I got lots of Gangnam Styling in during the con ^.^

Myself and some friends were originally going to be running an Adventure Time panel but ACen shot us down. ;n;
I don't know who all is still doing it but I know we basically had the full cast plus genderbents.
I myself will still be going as BMO, a friend as Marshall, and my other friend said she'll try to fit in PG. ;u;

I went to Kolli as Korra and Equius. ;u;
Who were you?
I thought the Karaoke room was really weird this year, just even the general set up, so I didn't do much singing.
I spent alot of time in the pool! That hotel is really niceeee

[Marbleyes]

Heya,

I remember you! I saw you walking around!

I was walking around as Ritsuka from Loveless the entire weekend.

I think I saw you as Korra. Friday I was Luffy from One Piece (Alabasta version) while Saturday and Sunday I was the Strong World version (see avatar picture). More specifically, I had a straw hat on me, but the majority of the time it wasn't actually on my head XD Lol, also on Friday I spent about half the time during the con not at the con...it was nowhere as good as last year :/
