As for me, it all depends on when I'm able to get vaccinated. If it happens before June, I just might be OK with going. We'll see.

What a shame that such a talented actor should be such a complete failure as a human being.

Oh dear me. First the skywalk, then the fountains, and now this. If the SoundGarden music store goes, I just might never visit Baltimore again.

As have I.

Am I bummed about this? You bet. Do I hold any grudges for this? Absolutely not; 'cos this was definitely the right call to make. The fact that my membership rolls over to next year certainly does cushion the blow.

Here are a few titles right off the top of my head: Zombieland Saga Planet With Fate/Apocrypha Just Because! Angels of Death

They might not get Otakon back, but maybe...just maybe...the BCC will be able to land some other anime convention. I certainly wouldn't mind having another excuse to visit Charm City again.

Not too shabby for a three-year old con. I'd strongly think about going if only it didn't come right smack-dab in the middle of football season.

Good points, all. But what about my recommendation of a separate entrance line for autograph seekers so we could get to the autograph area without having to deal with the massive mob entering the dealers' room?

Seconded. I was so looking forward to getting my first ever autograph from a Japanese seiyuu and it didn't pan out. Perhaps Otakon could only afford to have Inoue in town for just that one day, but IMO, her schedule was far too tightly compressed. I just wish they hadn't scheduled her autograph session to start so soon after the dealers' room first opened, considering how ridiculously long the lines are just to get into that place on the first day. Maybe Otakon should should have separate entrance lines just for the autograph sessions.

Oh man, I missed out on some neat stuff! Events like this really make me wish I could clone myself. I only got to attend three panels in their entirety, but one of them was a big 'un: The Q&A session by voice-acting legend Kikuko Inoue. I'd had my heart set on this panel, and she made it well worth the wait. Pity I couldn't get her autograph, though. I also had fun at Daryl Surat's Anime's Craziest Deaths panel (that's become a yearly tradition for me) and at the Anime Openings & Endings The Man Doesn't Want You To See panel; this veteran otaku enjoyed seeing the original ope

Otakon's schedule has been available to view for the past couple of weeks. But if you're too lazy to look things up yourself, then there is a Studio Ghibli film (From Up on Poppy Hill) playing at 12:30pm on Friday.

Got mine today! Whoopee!

I just got my badge today, yay! I'd been at the Red Cross donating blood platelets, and I got back home just in time to catch the mailman as he was driving past so I could sign for it.
