Kasucon 18: In Review

Hello everyone!

Its only been a little over a day since the ending of this year's Katsucon. Normally, that post-convention depression would be kicking the hell out of me, but it seems to be setting in slower than I'm normally used to. Don't get me wrong, it sucks that the convention is over, but this year I was able to take so much more away than I normally get from any convention.

My mind was completely blown the more that I talked to people about their love of anime and why they made these epic journeys to anime conventions like this one. Meeting those casual fans that still find time to binge on anime and manga to get that occasional fix, all across the board to those die-hard fans that have started working on their next cosplay idea before even unpacking their bags from the weekend. The conversations that I was able to have with you guys not only help with getting info for this entire project, but it also makes me appreciate what I am a part of, what all of us make up.

Blah, blah, blah, I'm ranting again so it's time for me to cut to the point and leave the rest for a later video post. In my everyday adventure, most people I run into aren't to open or excited to show that they are a fan of anime, manga, or even other aspects of Japanese culture. But when it comes to a convention, even the most reserved person still has some open and public way of showing off what it is that they love.

I know about my own reason, but I want to hear about YOURS. What is it that draws that feeling out of you at conventions like these?

I'll post a video update later, but I really wanna hear your thoughts and opinions on this little subject as well as this convention in general. Leave a comment or feel free to send me a message.

Until next time
Kasome~
