Have many anime cons outgrown their current convention centers / venues? Anime Expo and Katsucon both seem at their limit

>>10909872 MEFCC basically got kicked out of the ITC in Dubai for being too busy, rowdy, and having "unprofessional" guests (con-goers, cosplayers, and non-business types)
They're in the neighboring city now, but the Con itself is so expensive it's not really worth going.

The less crowded days are Thursday & Friday, Saturday it's the most crowded day, Sunday is when you can catch some good offers from vendors

Men are familiar with it because you never stop bitching at us but also because foid is the obvious counter-derivation from moid.

Protip: If you're not attractive and into cosplay, make tailored costumes for local Onlyfan Thots. They'll pay huge premium and you don't have to leave your parent's 2nd floor to do so. You get the simp $$$ without having to shake your ass and undergo years of permanent damage. Plus you gain skills.

>>10908951 These posts are almost a year old, but I'm pretty sure the second one is me. If it is, maybe focus more on reading comprehension and less on gloating. There's no end of cons with high cosplayer turnout, from the biggest to the smallest. The real problem is if it's "an expo" or some generic multimedia event, in which case you're gonna be flooded with boomers, kiddies and normalfags

>>10906775 Having listened to you deranged faggots screeching about "moralfags" and how secretly everyone is a pedophile like you since 2007, it will never stop being satisfying watching you turn into the exact out-of-touch hysterical soccer moms you always mocked the hardest now that your shitty "culture" is the default, everyone still hates you, and younger and smarter people are swarming into 4chan and becoming the counterculture. Take your poppers and calm down, retard.

This is a containment thread for all questions like "how do I get a cosplay gf?" or "how do i hook up at an anime convention"
>required reading https://wingman.live/blog/how-to-get-laid-at-an-anime-convention >I can't get laid IRL. Can I get laid at an anime con? No. You need the basic competence from IRL
>Thread prompt: What are your con romance stories? Either victories or defeats

Quoted By:
>>10911403 What's "it"? Getting laid? getting a bf?
for getting laid go up to a guy and act interested in his cosplay and hobbies and shit and laugh a lot. Have something fun planned and offer to come with him. In any case, get his instagram. If he doesn't come out, message him later that night asking him what he's going
anyway anyone who wants coaching on this topic add maintenancetunnels on Discord

>>10910858 saying this as someone who has had probably more than their fair share of sex at conventions, the best thing is not to have sex at the con itself but build the relationship and then date after
anything you do at the con will be rushed or not as private as you want it to be, be someone that they want to meet up with after the convention

barely anyone does military cosplays nowadays, and most of them are considered larping anyway. good news is that the market isn't saturated and ripe for the taking long story short if you Google csgo cosplay you'd probably find me on the first result

>>10911129 Unless the magical girls are trained in military tactics it'll prolly work well enough. On the other hand...

Going to be 6 hours when I go to Dragoncon this year and 10-12 if I ever decide to go to Katsu or Colossal. Getting a new car soon so that should help, I'll be able to actually justify owning an SUV.
