Tomorrow, my lovely girlfriend and I will make our annual trip down to the Washington State Convention Center for Sakura-Con, Seattle's big anime convention. Attending this convention has become a tradition for us, since our first real date was attending Sakura-Con 2008. I don't think either of us had been to an anime convention before, but we have since made a point of going every year.
We go primarily to people watch. We don't get into costume ourselves, but the outfits people come up with for the convention are amazing, beautiful, and occasionally horrifying. We also go to check out anime we haven't seen before in the theaters, and to see the crazy J-rock concerts that take place on Saturday night.
This year's special guest: Berryz Kodo, as the name suggests, they are a saccharine sweet pop group.
Not quite as awesome as Dazzle Vision, but it should still be fun.
Post pics when you get back. I wanna see the costumes.
