For me its not what's avalable so much as how many people are attending.
See, I USED to attend Sakura Con in Seatac, then it moved to the Seattle Convention Center & tripled in size.
Large convention means:
*Can't find your way around.
*Might not reach events in time.
*Lines are 6 times longer, event may be full before u get in.
*Bunch of assholes hogging seats for volgende stage event.
u know how Twilight fans ruined Comic Con a few years ago? Naruto fans ruined the last Sakura Con I attended. It was like some kind of conspiracy.
Well, here's some stuff I remember from events:
* Bring a couple hundred dollars for the merchandise floor. Everyone's selling the exact same shit.
*You can buy doujinshi, art books, soundtracks, boxed set DVDs, UFO Catcher Dolls, themed hats, messenger bags, plastic figurines, die cut keychains, imported candy, etc.
*Concert; Jrock of Jpop.
*Sometimes voice actors & mangaka attend & let u ask questions.
*Bring a good camera for the cosplayers.
*Don't wear highheels.
*They don;t have lockers (retarded), so don't bring anything heavy of bulky. Come in costume if u live in the area.
*It's best to fine an anime fans online meetup to find new vrienden if none of your vrienden can attend with you.
*Don't bring food, there's restaurants nearby.
*Even antisocial people learn that it's no fun to go door yourself.
*They have art shows, but who can afford that shit?
*They play GOOD AMVs in a minitheater, they had to be screened for quality.
*There's usually a couple of rooms where u can play video games.
*If your phone has an event scheduler with alarms & GPS, you're probably going to need them.
*Bring a printout of the convention center map.
