Lol Ivankov looks awesome :D I really really wish I could see one IRL!
I'm glad this con has restored faith in cons for most of you :P I've never been to an anime convention, because there are none in my country. So I always follow them through reviews of participants… All the conventions here are FRP or gaming cons. Well, that's better than nothing I guess :) There are some anime-manga cosplays alongside those gaming cons but we're still far, far away from something like this.
Though as the years pass I feel like just hopping on a plane and going there just for the heck of it :p Before this year it was impossible due to economical situations but within next year or so I'm hoping I can make it either there or Japan (as some friends are studying there, maybe I visit them before they return). I must see a con this way or thay way before I die dammit :))
Enough with the ranting, I'm glad everyone had a good time! Great photos also!
