It does make me laugh that you are mocking the number of panels going on.. you do know that's quite a lot for this kind of event ? It's actually a lot more than Kita and Ame had.
The only event I know of that has a load of panels is AL Events, but they overload themselves with complete trash... not to point the finger, but I think you are comparing it to that.

So honestly get your facts straight.and yes I beleive it's 600-650 people attending.

Kokoro was probably one of the best residential cons I had ever attended and it was very heartwarming.

I feel bad because this time last year I was slating kokoro and bitching about it, but after attending, I was proven wrong.

I was just bitter that alcon stopped as I enjoyed that, but it was ran by a nonce, so understandable.

It happened to me, someone broke into my house, stole all my anime dvds, figures and niknacks etc. then they swapped out all my Levi’s for gap chinos, git rid of my Jordan’s and replaced them with loafers. All my band T-shirts were shredded infront of me and replaced with polo shirts in basic colours and my hair line receded And greyed. My gaming PC was replaced with a last gen iPad with only fruit ninja, clash of clans and some sort of train /railroad game. Then they emptied my fridge of monster energy and pizzas and just left me with a Huel subscription. Even my motorbike was replaced with a decade old ford focus.

I'm biased, but I do think NEC is undervalued as a venue, and underused by MCM brum. Last time I went they barely used a single hall, and not even one of the bigger ones. Though IMO MCM Oct/nov are too close together and it should be moved to Feb or something.

to the person who is probably reading this, people can change.

I still believe you have things in your past you still need to work on from what I know of you and you have behaved in really terrible ways fairly recently, and I think you have been fairly punished and ostracized. I will also say that it seems like you regret what happened for the most part so I wont make a stink about it or discuss it any further with the hopes that you continue to improve and work on yourself. I recommend you stop coming here, and on other chans in general. I also believe if you truly accept responsibility for things that happened in the past you should also cut certain people out of your life.

If there's so much drama about Dairy then why hasn't there been any posts about him in the UK community? I honestly feel like the only people talking on this thread are the same group of friends trying to make this thread active and interesting.

you’re the fuckers who keep bringing it up. it was only mentioned because of the appearance at kokorocon, he turned up, he’s banned, he was marched off premises, we covered that, we’ve moved on, how about you let it die now?

Dairy is not well known outside of the gulls + is likely behind a decent number of posts about him here. Also anon typically people just get banned from cons with little fanfare unless you are directly aware of them or what happened. It's more unusual that you are hearing about it in this case.

It isn't April 1st anymore m8, that's 89% of cosplayers at any con now. Store bought fags.

>> No.10851369

Store bought costumes are better than 90% of home made ones, not going with storebought means you are either flexing your skills to people and being kind of a cunt about it or someone who inevitably ends up in a cringe cosplay compilation

This is why zoomers are a cancer generation.

Cosplay is supposed to be about showing your love of a character by dressing up as them and hanging round with other sad fucks doing the same. It's about having fun and making the effort.

Nowadays cosplay is shitty attention whores begging for social media likes and MUH REALISM. I'd rather see congoers in shitty handmade cosplay they put effort into than a soulless chink construction bought off the shelf.

Also have it clash with a big event like MCM or the weekend just before/after. Bonus points if there's a train strike

>>10851540
I don't really care nowadays if the cosplayer made it themselves or bought it off the shelf, but I feel the vibe around this has changed over the years.
It felt weird 10 years ago when I went to a con and saw other people with the exact same cosplay I'd bought off eBay. Doing that and not making my cosplay made 14yo me feel, idk, "lesser"? Only got back into the scene a couple years ago and now Aliexpress cosplays are everywhere at a con. What changed? Or was my perception when I was younger wrong?

Its called "cosplay", not crafting.

The most important part will always be the base person youre modifying with makeup n dresses.

Theres a reason the best crafters are mid-looking women who have to compensate.

Also really ugly dudes who make amazing armors.

Well apparently UKCFG Anime Spring is a Blunder. Ive got sent a picture at 2 PM and it was literally dead with no cosplayers outside. And I tought it was funny. Evolution is a great place but Ive seen more people there at Hyperjapan.

Didn't go and not surprised. Seen zero cosplayers talking about it.
The event appeared to go by different names - it was originally called London City Comic Con before changing to London Comic Con and Gaming Festival, which kinda resembles the Animeleague naming style (don't think they're connected). Gotta question the organisation skills when the name of the con can't stay consistent.
Guest list underwhelming, website looks terrible, poor marketing and no hype. Can't see it returning next year.

the london thing was because before you were born there was a regular event (bi-monthly? i can’t remembers) in london called LAC (london anime club), this ended in the 2000’s and anime league started theirs and wanted it to sound similar

I used to go to LAC occasionally. Was a laugh, they had a screening room and united publications and otaku used to have dealer tables there. You’d just drink all day chatting. Like a teeny tiny con.

When it was stopped animeleague created something using a similar name to cash in on the name recognition.

Just seen videos of inside the con from yesterday and today. It is DEAD. More stalls than attendees in the shots and hardly any cosplay. Some traders have reportedly made £0 and packed up early.

Even LAC and Animeleague get more atendees than this one.

>>10852429

I feel bad for the traders because those stalls are not cheap at all.

But I would agree that if UKCFG cant do another event with more promotion and stuff they will probally go bust.

And I dont think is abotu interest but even the cosplayers in london do not want to go.... most people just assume is a small con and to be honest.I think they were one of the OGs right?

Anyways its bad because it looks like we will have one less con overall.
