Oh my gosh, Anime Expo was awesome. Maybe even more awesome than previous years. I can still smell the epicness. (This is a metaphorical smell of course. Rooming with four guys in a hotel room half the size of the average bedroom, I can't imagine I smell too great.) OKAY, so, I'm not going to go into major details about the event, seeing as it was five - technically four, but I went to day zero - days long, I shall summarize.
This year I was with one of my friend who lives in a different city than I, Ethan, and all of his friends. Despite the fact that the hotel was jank, the registration line was eternal, all the food was insanely expensive, I got hit in the face with a sword, and Ethan and I somehow ended up wandering around LA at 9pm looking for my car... the weekend was still amazing.
The bad things were easily outweighed by the good: an epic card game of crazy 8's in which two people fought for third place - first and second were determined within ten minutes - for almost an hour, "shank the cleavage", screwing with idiots via text messages, and some of the most ridiculous conversations I've ever participated in.
And none of that was even at the convention.
The con was amazing too, just adding on to my already great weekend <3
