I've never been to an anime convention before, but it sounds fun. ^_^
I wish that I would have dove into anime and manga a little more when I lived in San Diego...Comicon was right under my nose and I didn't even know it!
Oh well. I don't know if my parents would let me go anyways...for every good-natured person, there's a wierdo you know...and I don't know if they'd take to all the people dressed up in funny costumes and the like. ^^
