Anyone from Minnesota?

Ah yes! Olivia Olsen! I really hope I can go to most of their panels. I'm on staff, but I'm hoping to work earlier so I don't miss the good stuff. I bet Billy West's panels are gonna rock. I've heard that Chris Patton's are really funny.

I am excited for Billy West's panels. I don't know much about Chris Patton though, but maybe I will check out one of his panels. So do you plan on cosplaying when you aren't working?

I plan on cosplaying if I have something finished by then. I'm pretty sure I'll have my Toadette finished, since I'm trying to get it done for a Mario Party party I'm having next month. I have a lot of cosplay planned, but not much finished due to lack of funds. I'm hoping my brothers and I follow through with our plan for going as Lock, Shock, and Barrel. I think Meta Con is the only con we all plan on attending. Do you cosplay? If so, who?

Those sound like some cool cosplays, especially the Lock, Shock, and Barrel one. Yes, I cosplay. At Detour this year, I cosplayed as Reborn from Hitman Reborn and for Animin or Metacon, I'm thinking about doing Lemongrab from Adventure Time.

I have several on my "to cosplay" list. My problem is that I'm a perfectionist, so I won't debut any costumes until I feel they are worthy. I might do several versions of Toadette. The one I'm doing now is modern/hipster, but I have a vision for a racer version. Were there many Hitman Reborn cosplays this year? I haven't watched much of that series, but I plan on restarting it soon. Lemongrab would be epic!

Nothing wrong with being a perfectionist. It just means you'll end up having a great looking cosplay. There was a decent turnout of Hitman Reborn cosplayers this year, maybe around 20 or so at the photoshoot. I should tell you though, if you do plan on restarting Hitman Reborn, that the series does start off slow. The first 20 episodes are pretty much made up of introductory episodes and filler episodes. But I can assure you that the series gets much better after that.

Yeah, I got up to episode eight before my WiFi messed up my streaming. I remember it being a bit slow, but I still really want to watch it. My favorite band does a opening or closing song for the series. I was suprised at how many people cosplayed One Piece characters this year. I feel like One Piece is finally getting the attention it deserves over here. ^_^

I might be going to Animinneapolis this year, actually =O Sadly, the most I'll be able to cosplay this year will be as a Rocket Grunt. Next year I plan on cosplaying as Joshua from The World Ends With You and Genis from Tales of Symphonia though =o

Yay! Another possible AniMinneapolis attendee! I'm looking forward to seeing Todd Haberkorn again. I'm hoping to get him in StreetPass this time! ^_^
