So this weekend :mokomel:, her mom, me, and a friend of ours went up to Eau Claire, Wisconsin, for the NoBrand Anime Convention! It was crazy cool hanging out with so many other anime fanatics! Mel dressed as Kagome and I as Kikyo. The worst part of that was the fact that Mel isn't as giggly and I just kept laughing. Which totally did not match my character at all. Lol

Our group stayed at the hotel that was hosting the convention. (Wow, con-goers can get pretty crazy when there's anime!) We ended up staying on the 8th floor, which is the last floor of the hotel, and we had some crazy con-goers next door. Speaking of crazy con-goers, there were even character battles outside the hotel, which happened to open onto a parking garage, so you felt like you were in a action game in the middle of a street fighting scene.

Cosplayers lined the sides of the ground floor of the garage and techno music blarred from a giant player. The place really felt like you were in a crazy video game with so many different cosplayers from different games/manga/anime. Then the numa-numa song started on the stereo and EVERYONE stopped what they were doing and STARTED DANCING!!!!! It was amazing!

The best part of this convention was that even though people where cosplaying, they were still extremely polite. I have never met so many polite people...and in a large gather..in my life!!! Every person I came across used their manners. I know this sounds weird but I always run into rude and ill- mannered people (everyone does). However, I was so suprised to find such a pleasant and considerate group at this con!
Can't wait till next year.
