ITT: OTAKON
BUMP
any moar?
>>1976627Damn, I was gonna do the fat version of this.
Wish I was there...
According to a John-Everyone is going nuts and aren't too busy taking that many pictures.
Eurofag here.I was looking with the livecam the dealerroom.I wish, I am of the Otakon today... Europe cons sucks!
>>1977222DO IT
Dumping... because this thread needs moar pictures.
>>1977630NO FUCKING WAYAWESOME
>>1977634THANK YOU FOR SHOWING LOVE TO THIS SERIES
>>1977634The "No photography" sign in the backgroud clinches it.
Did anyone see the Eddy Gordo break dancing with that other black guy Saturday night in that faggot circle? Shit was so cash. Only good cosplayer ever because he actually was irl Eddy Gordo.
Everyone is still probably at Otakon. Only reason I'm not is because i'm too hungover/tired from dat fucking rave.
>>1977975I'm too tired to go back today. I was up from the break of dawn to the end of the con both nights standing most of the time because of how much attention my costume brought me... surprisingy.
>>1977992Pic not related btw.
Ghostbusters trying to capture Billy Mays.
Cutest Riddler ever
>>1977999sometimes in life, pictures need to be savedother times, they need to be fuckin' saved
>>1977630I sort of screamed from excitement when I saw this... I'll admit it
I hear tell of a Needlewoman cosplayer at Otakon that was not myself (lack of funds, lack of time off... =/). Super curious to see if anyone has pictures of this lady, never seen another Needlewoman cosplay before.
>>1978090Not from Otakon but I think this is who you're talking about. This is from Animazement.
>>1977630The girl on the right has DEM HIPS and DOSE ABS! Teh hotness.
>>1978119Hey, there's a picture I haven't seen yet... That's actually me in the photo, and I'm the one that posted >>1978090. I was planning to go to Otakon with a few friends of mine, but my plans fell through, and I had to sit this one out. I've been getting texts from one of the friends that ended up going, though, and I was told there was apparently another Needlewoman/Engraver cosplayer there. I've never seen another one, so I'm curious to see someone else's take on the costume.
wtf
bump for more, you lazy fucks. some of us didn't get to go, show us the pics!
>>1978292I kinda feel like no one was taking pics this year, and if they were it was like... 10 max. Have one of my 10.
What? Why hasn't anyone posted the 10 foot tall Starscream???
>>1977970Geez did you actually have to go out of your way and call it a fagot circle? It seems like no con is complete without a group of breakdancers have an impromptu session.
>>1977999<3
me with pedobear
>>1978486Fuck yeah Domon!
>>1978538>It seems like no con is complete without a faggot circleNah, I kid. Never really cared either way, unless they did something retarded like block off foot traffic with it.
bump for moar pics!
You shut your whore mouth!!!
/r/ pics of the Earthbound/MOTHER cosplayers that I KNOW are there
Otakon surprised me this year. I mean, there was still a bunch of fail, but I saw one or two people pull off characters that aren't usually pulled off at all.
Anyone got shots from the brawl shoot? I wish to see my fail.
Good times, man.
Dumping my pics
>>1978907That chick was hot, I gotta say.
>>1978929MOAR PLX
>>1978933anymore from the Hellsing shoots? D:
>>1978932
LOID!
fucking TF2 cancer was representing pretty strong ruining another con
>>1978936
>>1978945Ruining? What, were you fighting with every spy, mechanic, and sniper you walked by? Just ignore them, sheesh.
Any good Left 4 Dead at the con?
>>1978957Blacks wouldn't show up at a Klan rally. Star Wars fans wouldn't cosplay at a Trek con. If they want to do their shit they need to go to a general interest con or gaming con; not an anime/manga con.
>>1978942>>1978941>>1978939>>1978931Awesome job guys!! Tons of variety at Otakon! I hope to make it next year!
>>1978945Ruining? You just didn't like it because of TF2 isn't weeaboo.Also, gay Chansey Medic <3
The whole Earthbound team. Paula didn't have her bow and Poo's bald cap was falling off, but they were all really nice people. There was also rumored to be a Tony wandering around that I didn't happen to see...
>>1978967 gay Chansey MedicYeah, that guy shows the typical TF2 cosplayer. Too lazy or stupid to get it right/trying too hard to make it acceptable for an anime con.
>>1978963Except that people have been cosplaying as western cartoon/game/movie characters at otakon since years before TF2 even existed. Why get all bent out of shape over that specifically?
>>1978962I saw a good Louis covered in blood with a great Zoey as well as a good Zoey and great Hunter, he had some really good makeup and was chilling in the game room on FridayOther than that there was a shitty witch that painted herself black, another shitty witch with NO claws and a lot of shitty Zoeys/Bills/white Louis/Francis/Hunter
>>1978974So shits doing that since Otakon one makes it ok for every con?
>>1978979Yes.
my boyfriend was here, interviewing random people. he cosplayed Kamen Rider (with one antenna...he lost the other one) and Lupin. Anyone see him?
Jet Set Radio cosplayers are few and far between.
>>1978963Funny because I love seeing game and American comic cosplay. Hell the Darth Vader at Otakon was the best thing I saw all weekend.Beats the shit out of the same shitty ebay bought Naruto/Bleach/Hetalia/Code Geass costumes
>>1978963Because, you know, anime/manga fans are huge rivals of western video game fans.
>>1978963So using that logic, every Zelda and Final Fantasy cosplayer needs to gtfo out your convention too, because they aren't anime/manga. Right?
Okay, Saturday I saw a lum that looked amazing but I was in a hurry and couldn't get a pic. Did anyone else get one?
>>1978979>So shits doing that since Otakon one makes it ok for every con?Actually, yes.
>>1978969Tony was in Artist Alley. God damn I love her so much. Both of them actually.
Did anyone see the Pickles walking around?? I wanted a picture but my fucking phone died
>>1978996Ideally yes but one step at a time. At least they're Japanese in origin.
>>1978993I hate it. It's an ANIME con, meaning you shouldn't do non-anime stuff...save that shit for comic or video game cons.
>>1978969There was 2 Porkeys, 2 Jeffs, a masked man, Lucas's whole family, and a Ninten
>>1979008Wow there really was no good Hellsing cosplay at Otakon...
Damn there were earthbound cosplayers I missed.
>>1979005nofunallowed.jpg
>>1979009You =/= the whole cosplay community. It's called variety. Bawww I see good things that aren't what the cons for so my shitty ebay bought costume isn't getting attention bawwww
>>1978971Actually, besides the Chansey and the gayness (which was obviously a joke), their costume was extremely accurate compared to the other Medics.
The number of Billy Mays and Shamwow guy at an anime convention was freaking hilarious.
>>1979015Cosplay is not about fun. I hate the idiots running around, squealing, wearing garbage they hot glued together. Cosplay is a job. You pick a character. You do it 100% right. You cosplay to show it off and remind the other people what they are. But then you get your feelings hurt and hate on people like JJ when they're the ones doing it right.
1 hp Zabuza and Haku here...
>>1979009>BAWWWW
>>1979018Oh yes! The complete lack of a pack was completely true to the character! That guy was halfassing it all the way.
>>1979022No good sir I work at a restaurant. Cosplay is the the thing you call a hobby. Like fishing or baseball.
>>1979022As long as they're doing it right, who cares who they've dressed up as, then?
>>1979012Actually that anderson was great. i thought he pulled it off really well. his grin was so much like andersons it was creepy.
>>1979009>>1979005You guys are retards. It's all part of the same culture. Get the fuck over it.>>1978984Here you go. Kind of a shitty picture, sorry.
>>1979022BAAAAAAWWWWWYou're a fucking idiot. If cospaly wasn't invented for fun it wouldn't exist at all. Plus, making good cosplays takes time and practice, no one in the world is going to start their first cosplay and having it end up looking perfect. Get you're self righteous head out of your ass.
>>1978997this girl was easily an 11. my dearest lum, if you see this message, i'd love to take you out to dinner at the next otakon :)
Hell yeah, that tall Anderson was kick ass...and he was dancing through most of the con XD
>>1979022Oh, hi JJ.
>>19790229/10
>>1979022If cosplay for you is a job then you clearly have no life.
Fukken yes cosplay
Fuck the TF2 people, there was way too much Hetalia garbage.
I wonder how many people called the Magician's Valkyria cosplayer "Dark Magician Girl".
I D'AAAAAAWWWWW'ed when I saw her
what's tf2?
;__; they even held hands bawwww
>>1979033video games chars are cool even if they're american but the comic book characters and the watchmen characters and stuff are lame
BUTTSCRATCHAAAH!
>>1979060WHAT THE FUCK, CHARLOTTE.
>>1979066Buttscratcha!
>>1979070BUTTSCRATCHA?
>>1979036>>1978997I think that be Yaya. She was in full force this weekend.
So do you people have a mental checklist of every existing anime, manga, video game, and comics character so you know who's acceptable and who's the Western heathens that must be cast out?
>>1979066>>1979070>>1979077LOLOLOOLOOOLOLLLLLL
>>1979077I was wondering where the hell the Buttscratcha chant came from.>>1979036Are those old skool Konami logos tattooed on your arms? If so kick ass brotha. Kick ass.
I was surprised I saw a four murasame =o... go zeta =D
http://www.japanator.com/otakon-09-way-too-many-people-are-cosplaying-team-fortress-2-10581.phtmlUNLESS IT'S A FARM
>>1979088
>>1978606>>1978606I just died a little on the inside.I didn't think he would be there this year, but he was, huh.That Pedobear was the reason I'm so mad I couldn't go this year, especially after seeing him at Otakon last year.Come to ConnectiCon, damn it!
>>1979096this looks fun..
Did anyone get any of Spike?
The best Touhou cosplay
>>1979085buttscratcha is brought to you by the rambunctious hellsing cosplayers :D whom i love with a great firey passion you amazingly awesomely friendly people you <3 >>1978933-YW
>>1978606>>1979099
>>1979033OH LOL THANK YOU
This con, man. This con. It was incredibly eye-opening.
Did anyone see Moot at Otakon? I saw WT Snacks with a Haruhi Suzumiya cosplayer around 6pm on Saturday.
>>1978975I was cosplaying a Hunter thurs-saturday and was chilling in the game room friday night for a little bit till the announced it was closing in 15 min, Wonder if it was me you saw, I fucking hate when Hunters use ducktape
>>1979118ULTIMATE
>>1976623>>1979077>>1979070>>1979066mmmBBUTTSCRATCHAA
>>1979127yep. he was staying at my hotel.
>>1978945>I ran around spouting /b/ memes out of my cum crusted mouth. Everyone is cancer except me.
>>1979125In what way?
I wish I had better pictures of the Guilty Gear shoots, my friend found my camera difficult to operate and the good pictures are on my other friends' cameraSo have this blurry thing ;_;I'm the Faust in the front hee hee
Best Journeymanhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tNrdKmITTwI&feature=channel_page
>>1979140You seem pretty upset. Are you the guy running around as the horrible medic?
I just got back from baltimore.fun con. I got lots of pics. I'm planning a fancy youtube slideshow (lol). It will take me a few days to get all this organized. but I'll make a thread once I finish all of this.Also tripfagging till this is done. So look for it.
>>1979138Was it the Renaissance? I saw a figure that looked a lot like him when I left Baltimore Saturday night probably heading there. I parked at the Renaissance on Saturday.
yo whats up
>>1979146plz resize your photos
>>1979160Not much. Cosplay sure is hard when you go to Wal-Mart and buy 99% of your costume off the rack isn't it? Going by the sack of fail on the right getting your head shaved is too complex.
>>1979148HOLY SHIT IS THAT SOME NOONSA I SEE?!?!?!
>>1978445Anon Delivers
thiiiiiiiiiiis coooonnnnnfngnngfngdnnn.I had fun, but my Auxo was absolutely painful and completely ignored. And the mc for the masquerade just called me miss 'fatima'. But all my hard work for nearly nothing. It was pretty obscure, though. Y'all need to go read Five Star Stories
Anyone have the picture of the little sisters that were there? There were a couple of them somewhere...
I'm one of the pack of three guys who were running around as sims. My dumbass forgot to take a picture of us at any point, but I know at least one of you have one of my scraggly neckbearded self. If you do, can you post it? I want to show my ghetto cosplay off.
>>1979127That was me but it wasn't Haruhi. ;_;I usually hate Con Yelling Memes (dude, FUCK Marco Polo), but I really, really enjoyed buttscratcher!
Did anyone get some of the Gurren Lagann cosplay there?
>>1979171Well ain't you just adorable?I would go into discussing how wrong this simpleton is, but i don't see him complaining about other shitty costumes. Just because you hate the game doesn't mean people who love it can dress up and have fun like the rest of whatever.
>>1979200Oh sorry.If it was Ohayocon, one would be saying O-H and then others would say I-O.
Goddamn. I was just there to do the Audio / Visual, but shit was so cash.
>>1979130Were you the one wandering around with a sign on your back Saturday night with a Zoey?
And more...
>>1978969nice. any moar?
>>1979125Orly How so? Break up with 4ng?
LOL. Pedobear's nametag - Leon S Kingoy or some shit. I got some anon fag to get a shot of me with him - anyone got a pic of a guy in a DSL shirt with Pedobear?
>>1979214Real Zombies Don't Use Ducktape?and had a drawn on Hunter?yeah that was me, I wish i thought to make the sign on Friday too, but Saturday was for the Lulz
Lolwut? I caught this picture downstairs outside A+B Hall while I was going to fix some fucking 60" Plasma.
>>1979200ahahaha we had so much fun with that. just shouting it everywhere. :D
hey, did anyone get a picture of the hakufu that cosplayed on thursday? I wanted to take a picture but I couldn't get out of the pre-reg lineor of any other hakufu for that matter.....
>>1979233Oh fuck I came up to you and complimented your sign. The Zoey you had with you was pretty good. You were definitely the best Hunter I saw at the fucking con. There were only about 7 good Left 4 Dead cosplays.
Oh god. OH MAH GODZ. PEDOBEARZ IZ A MAN!
>>1979249Thanks, Yeah, Alot of people Liked my signbut all the hunters made me Tear with there shitty Ducktape
OH YEAH!
>>1979080i donno yo, i dont think that's her. yaya looks much taller in comparison and her legs seem a lot longer. both really attractive, im gonna have to start getting involved with more cons because otakon was a ton of fun this year. ive been to all of them except 2 and to see the way it changes over the years is pretty neat. hard to think that the first otakon there was only 400 people and two girls, and now its up around 25000 and the girls seem to outnumber the guys 2 to 1. its a good feeling :)
MARCO
speaking of l4d, anyone get a shot of the group that had a full cast?
This one was pretty fucking cool.
>>1979263FUCK YOU
Heh. The bagpipe guy leading the parade down the escalator - until fucking faggot security stopped it.
Anyone else see the "chick" at the art auction on Sunday afternoon who was walking around the paintings and shit? It wasn't a chick. Almost fooled me...But anyhow, one of the better cosplays of the con. I got to watch them perform while setting up sound for the arena.
in her pooper.and i dont mean alucard.
>>1979269The really shitty one?
personally i really liked all the hellsing cosplayers. they were really nice and the panel was hilarious.
>>1979085they are indeed konami waves on my arm. i do video game music and original 8bit stuff, working on a 9th video game album now, so im pretty much a lifer, ahaha.
NOKO GOES IN EMAIL FIELD YOU FUCKING FAGGOT
>>1979225Nope, Otakon is Otakon, one of my least favorite cons of the years. The best part of the trip was the DELICIOUSSSSSSS Clam Bake that we got for dinner. Fuck year, B-More! It was cool seeing people here and there, and that's pretty much it. That whole buttscratcha (It wasn't funny on Family Guy and it was even less funny said by congoers) and MARCO. POLO. also... not funny. I dunno, I'm getting worn out by cons in general since its the same shit over and over and over and over again. I'm hoping D*C is the shit so I can quit silly anime cons.
This made Saturday completely worth it.
>>1979300I remember someone trying to get a picture as they rode up the elevator and Monarch rode down. He almost fell at the bottom.
>>1979284>>1979284Fucking this. I actually met Mish and Vicious for the first time and they were both fucking awesome as well as all the other Hellsing cosplayers.
>>1979283I only saw one so I don't know.
>>1979298 so I can quit silly anime cons.You'll be back and you know it.
Ahaha. I wish I got a video of this shit.
>>1979309There only was one. So yes.
>>1979298Don't quit anime cons! I'll never see you again. ;_;
>>1979282I lol'd for some reason
Someone needs to hunt down and kill that faggot that did Tsukasa. Not only did he not stop posting his shit here all damn weekend, but he fucking ruined the con, and was one of the retards behind the BUTTSCRATCHA! non-meme. I mean it. I am calling for a cosplay jihad on that emo cunt.His staff was pretty cool though.
So, Otakorp still spent a shitload of money on this shit. We lent them more than $60,000 worth of TVs, and the Ballroom projectors cost almost $250,000 a piece. Phew, at least we made enough money to justify our asses there from 7am-2am.
>>1979318>>1979282her fake british accent gave me a hard on
>>1979325Fucking this. That shit was annoying as hell
she was cuteeeeeeee
The /cgl/ 'Drama' meetup was a success.
and spidey
>>1979337Woah woah woah fuck you pal. Buttscratcha is nothing compared to how much I hate that fucker. I was around him all weekend watching this retard. All the asspie did was OH HEY UM CAN I UH TAKE UM YOUR AH UH UM UM PICTURE UM like a faggot and go to every dealer room booth asking for some creepy obscure hentai called devillady. Then, oh god when some unfortunate soul asked for a picture he'd answer everyone the same dan way, UM UH I UM DO YOU UH WANT ME TO SMILE UM OR HA HA SOMETHNG MORE TSUKASA-Y"Tsukasa-y?" COME OVER HERE SO I CAN KILL YOU.Poses were the worst. All generic emo bullshit or pedosmiling like a faggot.Buttscratcha is nothing. That kid has ruined .hack for me, and he has to die.
any k-on?
and ther gaga girl heavily shooped
Moar of this chick!
>>1979352agreed. Someone took video of that, didn't they?
>>1979325>>1979358god Damnit that kid was creepy as all hell :/ he started got my friends to start yelling buttscratcher and all that jazz. it was amusing to see people respond to them though XD
>>1979375I believe it was College Park MD. I was in the Reds hat.
>>1979171>Huurf dururd hurdhurdfffff
>>1979325>>1979358god Damnit that kid was creepy as all hell :/ he started got my friends to start yelling buttscratcher and all that jazz.
>>1979358Err....I'm sorry? I guess? I'm not sure WHAT part of that was so rageworthy (and Devil Lady is an actual animu) besides BUTTSCRATCHA, which the dude in the Aperture Science costume was behind, for reference.>>1979390I'm sorry! I'll try to be less creepy next time!
Marco Polo. Everywhere I went. It just wouldn't DIE!
>>1979369So there WAS a GaGa photoshoot on Saturday night.One question. Why?
not gonna lie, i fangasmed a liitle bit when i saw this.
>>1979411I've NO idea, but once I figured out who they were, I nearly bust a gut laughing. Anybody get a picture of them?
BUTTSCRATCHA was funny for the first two hours.I gagged alittle when i heard it on sunday morning.
>>1979411
I guess I should post some of my pictures, the drama is getting annoying.Who is this lovely lady? There's something about that smile combined with the outfit that makes me really like this picture.
>>1979312http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4qDH7x2VaGAEnjoy.
>>1979423If you're kind enough to post photos, maybe think about starting a new thread? I'm not sure, but don't they autosage at 250 posts now? I think this one's about to die anyway.
>>1979422Wow. There is a ton of them. When I was there I saw about 5 of them. That one of the ground in the front looks amazing!
>>1979127I saw Moot on Thursday. Standing outside of prereg trying to ignore the staffer with the loud voice and he walked right by me. I said, "hey, what's up, moot?" and he seriously looked like I had just tried to molest him or something.Weird.
>>1979446are you in there? you cosplay lady gaga and went to ota, right?
>>1979451I do, but I'm not in the picture. I saw a few of them and said hello, tried to get them to take a picture with my muffin, then I headed to the dance. That's why I made the costume. To dance :)
>>1979448Yeah I was hearing a story at 'Drama' on Friday and someone was saying how they saw Moot and people in the line said: "Moot Was Here". The site was down I thought he returned to New York City to fix it.I feel sorry for the guy and his new found popularity. It would be completely stupid for me to ask a scholarly question about 4chan when you are trying to enjoy something you love.
The memes were quite stale, but I can't blame them. Blame puberty.Anybody see the Tingle cosplay?
for anybody that gives a fuck, my slideshow for the con is almost done. I'll be sure to make a part 2 of this thread (if there isn't one already)Despite all the buttscratcher, the game, marco polo. It was a fun otakon. You 4chan people gotta learn that your precious internet memes and jokes are main stream now lol.
Post some awesome TF2 good sirs
I was cosplaying as a relatively shitty Young Walter from Hellsing, but I do have some pics....
Took me forever to realize that this wasn't "Pikachu" but rather "Pikachu fan" from pokemon. I dropped my camera in front of her and looked like a dork. I then realized i was at an anime convention, and stopped worrying.
>>1979026Ohh hey. 1 HP Haku here. More pics soon.
This centaur thing was kinda nuts
actually got two of this girl
I was gonna go as Johnny, but I ended up not having a hat...
I know this isn't anime, but you gotta appreciate the guy who lugs around a giant plank of wood to do "Johnny" from Ed, Edd, and Eddy
YOU LOST THE GAME ffffffffffffffffffffffffffff
>>1979529I tried to get those girls with the sign, but it ended up all blurry. Sorry.
This was after the giant circle of breakdancing between Deejay and spartan guy. I have the video of this giant line, too
Oh, image max is reached. I have quite a bit more if anyone is interested.
>>1979538I KNOW THOSE PEOPLE AREN'T DOING CARMELDANSEN.
>>1979548Is that whats that called? I have the video, if you want it. Not the best quality, but hey, what can you do. The best one is the Optimus Primehttp://www.sendspace.com/file/33sw3mI have a few other vids, too. There were japanese girls dancing outside at this time, too, who i got.
>>1979127I did! Got 2 pictures with him while I was in my Yoko cosplay :D
The girls with the you lost the game sign were my friends. but staff took it away saying it was..prostitution? wut?
bump for pics
