ok iv been a fan for about a year and a half now and living in the uk theres not much on TV but u can sure get a hell of alot of anime from Ebay and having friends who have been into it for 3-4 years helps to XD.

but theres alot of topics on anime, but what about conventions?

anyone been to a convention?

iv been to 2 in the Uk first being Minami 9 and the second being Aya (something or nother after that but it was last year). planning to go to Minami 10 in 3 weeks time and getting my ticket soon for Ame Con in august.

www.amecon.org.uk is going to have 1000 people at it but i know its nothing compaired to cons in the USA.

so anyone been or planning to go to one ?

I choose not to be seen as these events. I'm not crazy about anime.

Firstly im a massive Anime/Manga fan. UK anime conventions are ****. Most require you not to dress up as your favourite anime character *as true japanese people do* and if we did. My mates probably think im a sad twat for dressing up as a anime characters -___-

Of course if i lived in the land of the rising sun (well once a year i go). Id dress up as anyone ^__^

Im from UK btw
