never even thoigh I am diffrent when i was in my maid coustume. I am hopefully going to cosplay as Miku Hatsune at Katsucon

outcasts
 

I'm usually one of those people referred to as "a loner" so I'm pretty much used to doing weird things, having people stare at me, and laugh about what i did later. Believe me, once you are used to it, it's actually alot of fun. (By the way, I'm definitely not saying anime con conventions are weird, I think they are awesome, so don't take that the wrong way.:marusmile:)

I don't go to any of the Anime related expos or conventions and such mainly because some of the people there weirds me out.

this year was my first anime con i didnt cosplay though but next year i will so it will be my first time cosplaying:)

i feel like an outcast no matter where i go.

Sometimes, I dont bother with cosplaying.
Im not really impressed by it all, since i've been to 5 expos already.
I still feel outcast though, seeing as im not really a fan

I've only been to two in my life, and I did seem "out of place", especially since, for the most part, I don't keep up with much of anything "new", but that's pretty much the only way I was, and am, "out of the loop". Most of the cosplayers I came across, I didn't know what they were from, aside from the obvious mainstream stuff, but if they looked cool, I took a pic of 'em anyway. As for me, I don't cosplay, and probably never will so in that regard I'm also "out of the loop".

The main reason I went, aside from visiting my friends who are into manga/anime who live in the area, was to buy stuff, like plushies (I don't care how old I get, I'll always like stuffed animals), cds, manga, Japanese snacks and drinks (yay Ramune! lol), and sometimes extra things, like I bought necklaces for my entire family one year; each had his or her own Chinese Zodiac symbol on it. My ultimate favorite activity at the convention I went to was pretty much all of the retro gaming.

You'll feel like an outcast only if you act like one.


Also, I've never been in those anime conventions, so I can't answer this threads question

not necessarily.

And now I'm confused.
