I'm going to Anime Boston!
I'm so excited!
The first time I went to Anime Boston was in my freshman year of college, when I went with RPI's anime club. That was the con where I bought the poster of N which turned be into a Pokemon fan as an adult. I couldn't make it to Anime Boston my second year, but this time I was able to convince my parents that we should go for Memorial Day weekend. The way it's going to work, I'll go up on Thursday and my parents, my little sister, and her friends will follow me on Friday after my sister's high school lets out. I'll be the first one there and the last to leave, since I plan on staying in Boston until late Sunday afternoon, while everyone else will be leaving in the morning, so I can go to the Japan Festival, which Anime Boston advertises.
I still haven't decided exactly what events I'll go to. I know I want autographs from Christopher Bevins and David Matranga, because they provide the voices of my favorite characters in "Romeo X Juliet" and "Xam'd Lost Memories" (respectively). Oh, and if I can get Greg Ayres to autograph my new "Ouran High School Host Club" DVD that would be awesome too. Other than that, though, I think I've been so consumed by the excitement of it all that I haven't actually been able to sit down and make firm plans :P
One thing I was kinda sorta hoping I'd get a chance to do at some point is buy an elegant gothic lolita dress. No such luck, though--it wouldn't arrive in time. So I'll just be wearing this cool anime-inspired squid T-shirt for one day, and casual dresses for the rest of the time. Sometime in the future, though, I may have to find myself the perfect elegant gothic lolita dress which I can wear to every con I go to for ever more.
I also learned that they're going to be showing "Shiki" at Anime Boston this year! I, however, will not be going on account of the fact that I've already seen it twice and will be running a showing at my school this upcoming fall. And why watch anime at a con, anyway, when you could be doing things you couldn't do anywhere else?
Anyway, if anyone else is going to be there let me know and maybe we can hang out.
