      I was just wondering if anyone here was planning on attending this (very) tiny PA based con?

        If I lived up north, I would be. Sounds like a neat little con.

          Oh, I wish! Hopefully one day Zenkaikon will be large enough that out of state cosplayers would want travel to! I'm totally jealous of anyone living in TX. So many amazing cons! ❤ ❤ ❤

          But hey, if you are ever in need of a place to stay near Philly, let me know. 🙂

            That would be awesome! Yeah, hopefully one day I can have the means to head up to a con up north. You setting up an art table there? Otakon is unlikely because god knows I don't have the money to spend on huge cons like some people.

            I love Texas cons! I've had the chance to go to at least two others outside my city. I'm hoping to go to Matsuri in Houston and San Japan in San Antonio, but we'll see.

              I'll definitely be there, the con site is only about a 20 minute drive from where I live! Zenkaikon may be on a smaller scale compared to Otakon or Anime Expo, but they've steadily been growing since they started 5 years ago, in fact this year will be their first year expanding from a 2 day to 3 day convention. I'm looking forward to seeing what they have in store, and hope to see some other OP cosplayers there!

                @CatMonster: I did get wait listed for a table, but now I'm just interested in walking around in cosplay. 😛 I'd like to do a OP, Twelve Kingdoms and/or War of Genesis cosplay. (OP would trump all others though.) Hoping for Shakky!

                I really wanted to attend the Sonicon this past year! I just loved the idea of people walking around with their pet hedgehogs!

                @Ewing4686: Awesome!! What OP cosplay do you plan on wearing there? (If any) Still debating mine. 🙂

                  I'll be wearing my Akainu cosplay that I debuted at Otakon this year. Zenkaikon was alot of fun last year, not too many OP cosplayers, more Naruto and Bleach, but it seems like One Piece has been on the rise in the cosplayer scene lately so here's hoping for more OP cosplayers next year!

                    It's almost time! I'd definitely show as Strong World Robin…without the gun. T_T It's still not ready yet.

                    I've posted in the zenkai forum about a meet, so I have yet to hear back on when the meet will be.

                      I'll be dressed as Nico Robin on Friday; when were you planning on wearing Akainu?

                        I should be wearing my Akainu Friday and Saturday, I had hoped to have another costume done I am currently working on but no luck, hopefully it will be finished it time for Otakon in the summer. Too bad there'll be so few of us, though if I remember how it was it 2009 there was a lot more Bleach and Naruto love compared to One Piece.

                        Though One Piece has seen an increase in popularity since then, there was definitely a big turn out at Otakon 2010 last year so maybe we'll see some other OP folks with any luck!

                          Great!! (I feel your costume fail; I really wanted Shakky for Zenkai. Oh well.) I'm going to try to see if there are those interested in a OP meet on another forum, but I'd need to have a location and time set for me to post. Friday seems to be the day that works for both of us, so let's plan for a location and time. I'm going to try to pick up my badge on Thursday so my whole Friday is free.

                          I'm cool with hanging out, grabbing a bite to eat or going to panels and such. I have no real plans for the con, just cosplay. (Though, that might change once I actually check to see if there is a schedule out.)

                            Yeah sure, that sounds like a plan, anytime on Friday works for me as well, hopefully we'll be able to figure something out based around the schedule whenever it gets posted up on the website. Thanks for the interest and hopefully we can meet up on Friday at some point!

                              Ok, how about for now we say meet at 2pm in the Scanticon lobby? At least until the schedule comes out and we have a clearer idea of what's happening at con. 🙂

                                That works for me, 2:00 on Friday in the Scanticon lobby. Hopefully the weather will be good that weekend, because that'll make it a lot easier for the outside photoshoot groups, or to get over to the KoP mall for lunch/dinner as well.

                                    @Ewing4686 - Great! Yes, hopefully the weather will be fantastic. I am so sick of the snow and cold weather. I want a warmer spring. 🙂 We could do the KoP mall or there are a few shopping centers in the area too.

                                    @OrangeNinjasSucks - Oh no!! I'll be in the lolita fashion show on Sunday. 😞 I can't believe that I'm going to miss out on another SW cosplayer… gosh I wish you were attending on Friday. T_T Which SW version are you going as? Mafia or Adventure?

                                      I'll be going as Mafia Luffy, I would've gone Friday but I have errands to do that day. Sorry! 😛

                                        That makes missing each other so much worse!! I was hoping that you'd say Adventure so I wouldn't feel so terribly bad about not cosplaying the same day, but that is not the case. 😞

                                        Well, please do let me know if your plans change and you end up making it to the con in SW Luffy at any point on Friday. Even if it's just to stop on by for photos. 🙂

                                        @Ewing4686
                                        The con schedule is out and there is definitely a panel that I want to go to that runs from 1ish to 2:30ish. Are there any panels that are a must for you?

                                        I'm impressed with the amount of sci-fi panels! Yay!

                                          Hmm, looking at the schedule now there are a couple panels I'm interested in the 3:00 to 6:00 range, so I guess we could either look to meet up earlier before the 1:00 panel you'll be attending, or shoot for the evening sometime after 6:00.

                                          Let me know what would work best for you, and we can go from there.

                                            We'll probably be going to some of the same panels then. I'm hoping to hit up all the sci fi panels, the gameshow and then the concert. (I'll have to bring a change of shoes!) Wow, I can't believe that I'm actually interested in going to these panels…now getting in might be a different story...lol, and there is not much I'm interested in on Saturday...

                                            So how about early; let's say 11:30am?

                                                    Well, we'd love to see more AP Forum members!

                                                    Lol, I've decided to wear SW Robin for half the day and then 'closet cosplay' her the rest of the day. It's supposed to be a gorgeous day and I don't want to spend it in all black…from head to toe... XD So I may not be recognizable if you see me after I switch out of the SW outfit. I will have a straw cowboy hat!

                                                      Sunday was I guess sort of a bad day to go. All of the good events happened friday and saturday so I ended up just shopping around and playing Smash Bros Melee. lol

                                                      I saw some really good One Piece Cosplayers though! The most creative one I saw was a female angel Ace. That was really cool! I might post some pics later. Overall, this was really a fun convention though.
