BC Anime/Manga Corps

Aren't you fed-up with garbage, full-of-shit sites where nobody actually communicates, such as Facebook, Instagram, TikTok and Twitter? Do you wish your old friends who've migrated to those sites would return to LiveJournal? The the_lj_revival community has been set up with that aim in mind, and you are invited to join it. If you are already on LiveJournal and still have a Facebook profile, and would like to see more people returning to LJ or setting up accounts here, we invite you to post a link to this community on your Facebook Timeline. If you would like to find out who is still using LiveJournal and make contact with those who are already here, you are invited to copy and paste the 'about me' questions on the profile page and post them with your answers to the community.

HELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLO its me

Hey there! I've just started a new Gravitation RP called Nostalgia. No kidding here! It's brand new and (as of right now) all the characters are open with the exception of Hiro. Don't worry if you're not really experienced. So long as you have an understanding of the series (though knowing the manga would be beneficial) you can apply. I want this RP to be a place where players of all backgrounds can grow and have fun! I look forward to playing with you!
If you're interested give it a look: http://lovemix.proboards76.com/ind…

x-posted... umm, a lot of places... ^^;

A reminder: Photo ID's will be necessary to receive your badge at ANimeNext! Make sure to bring one, whether it be school ID, NYC ID, Cambodia ID, etc. Just make sure you have it, or you will not receive your badge.

Thanks, and see you all Friday.

Hey all. To those who of you going to AnimeNext this upcoming
weekend, here are the tentative meet-up plans:

After looking at the schedule that has now been posted at
AnimeNext.org, opening ceremonies will be taking place at 10AM. In
order to ensure that we get on the bus, since there will be a large
amount of people trying to take the bus, I suggest getting to the Port
Authoirty at 8AM.

There will be two meet-up points to make it easier for those of you
who can get to the PA easier than Brooklyn College.

1. At 7AM, we will be meeting in front of SUBO. We will be leaving at
7:10, and will then be taking the 2 train to 42nd Street.

2. At 8AM (give or take a few minutes due to trains), we will then be
meeting up in front of the Port Authority. Anyone who is meeting us
at the Port Authoirty instead of at SUBO, please make sure to contact
me on my cell phone when you arrive there to ensure we meet up
smoothly, and don't end up waiting at the wrong entrance or anything
like that. My cell phone number is 646-496-6848. Once we meet up,
off to catch the next available bus we shall go.

If anyone has any questions or comments, please let me know. If not,
see you soon!

For AnimeNext, there are 2 costume contests.

1. Masquerade (for craftsmanship & presentation) This is our Saturday night stage event.

2. Hall Cosplay Contest (for craftsmanship only) If you don’t want to go on stage but still want to have your costume judged, then this contest is for you!

The "Hall Cosplay contest" is on Friday I believe, and the "Masquerade" is Saturday.

My question is... on Saturday, when they say "costume contests" do they mean with the skits they'll also be showing a Fashion Show part strictly for people that only want to strut off their costumes like at Otakon or are the judged in their costumes with a skit?

If you've been to Otakon, I hope you'll understand my question.
Thanks in advanced!!!

Anyone in need of contacting Marvin, his internet is currently not working. Every time he tries to log on, his computer freezes. So he might not be online for the next couple of months. If you need to get in touch with him, either call his home of cell number. His cell number is posted a couple of posts back on volitionism. Just letting everyone know.

For those that have been planning/considering AnimeNEXT last minute, meaning you're planning on your own...I'd like to announce that the Marriott Courtyard Hotel is SOLD OUT with the convention reservations anyway. I only know this because I ironically booked the last room a few days ago. There is another hotel mentioned on the site but there's no $ amount listed and I usually would suggested not going to the options list because it most likely means you'll end up hitchhiking to the convention.

The Mariott Courtyard's normal rates actually are pretty interesting... There are rooms available for $94 per night if you pay in 14 days-advance plus other fine print which you'll have to find out for yourself. Otherwise the standard rate seems to range from $129-$139. I don't know the difference because it all seems to be listed under a standard room with the same items in it. Apparently hair dryers, irons, coffee makers may or may not be provided in the room...so you be prepared with items you need. It's 1 king sized bed...can't be that bad.

AnimeNEXT seems relatively cheap and it is close to home, so maybe I'll see you guys around even if you're not staying in a hotel.

For those that are going, here's procrastination at it's worst [Med//MSPaint]:

See the rest of you this fall! Have a nice summer(?)!

Everyone, make sure you guys have valid photo ID with you so you can
receive your badge for the convention. IF YOU DO NOT HAVE A VALID ID,
YOU WILL NOT GET INTO THE CONVENTION!!!

This includes school ID, Driver's liscence, permit, etc. As long as
it looks like you and says your name, they will accept it. Just
please, don't forget your photo ID. Or you'll spend the entire
convention in the room.

Thanks guys, and I'll see you all Friday.

Hey guys. Would anyone going to AnimeBoston, preferably the females, happen to have a pair of white gloves they are not using that can be borrowed for the duration of the convention? Meg is cosplaying as Jan Valentine from Hellsing and doesn't really have the gloves to suit the cosplay.

Assistance in this cosplay emergency would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. :)
