i went to that ReCon. i TOTALLY agree with you. it was the first convention id been to, and i had really high expectations of it. i was expecting looads of people dressed up in full cosplay with loads of new mangas and animes for people to check out, but no. a single ds for people to play LOZ on and a wii that they could barely get going. im going to go to the next one, but this time im taking some of my art rather than the traced doodles they had there. and maby cosplay, but im short and blode i REFUSE to be Naruto. i won a princess diary, yipee ¬_¬ atleast i made someone laugh with ebay

1. Oh well....
Was that Scunthorpe?
The council claims 150 attendees, and say TokyoPop were astonished. My judgement is that the number is hugely exaggerated.
Meagre supply of Pocky, standard Tokyopop freebie, as seen on Neo magazine.
Some good cosplay entries and some good art.
Lousy sound system.
And I've been involved with conventions for most of my life. I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Ambulance-riding cat-girls taunting Tank Police. I've watched hollow-eyed fans haunt the bar after Urotsukidoji. All gone, like tears in the rain. Ah, well, time for tea.
