What's the furthest con you've gone to?
« on: July 16, 2007, 04:51:39 am »
I have no idea if this has already been a topic. I wouldn't know because I'm never here. And GEEZ. I come back and the layout has changed. I couldn't find the New Topic button.
Annnd for those of you who know i'm going as Kadaj. well, I don't even know if I can anymore. O_O it's hard getting money.

Now.. back on topic.

What's the furthest con you've gone to?
I'm going to the other side of the FREAKIN' world. Yes a different continent for a con. ..expo thing. They're the same, right? I'm supposed to be going to Europe for vacation only but when I found out there's going to be a con in London I was like "OMFGIGOTTAGO D:"
So i'll be going to JapanEx London. O.o
And I thought Anime Expo was far. XD

I've not gone that far, the only con I've ever been to being Kumoricon. But London? Wow, that is far, but sounds like a blast. A combination of two awesome cultures, England and Japan. I bet it'll rock. ^_^

Right now... Anime Evolution. AnimeUSA will be further, since it's on the otherside of the freaking country! But that's not until November.

Currently from Eugene to Sakuracon but since I'm going to grad. school in Hawaii it's probably going to be Kawaii Con.

Me thinks it was Kumoricon, as it took me a 5 hour train ride followed by 5-6 hours in the car to get there. I really wish I could afford to go to a con further away.

Anime Evolution this year. Only time I've crossed a border to go to a con. But if all goes according to plan and I go to Otafest next year...well...

Well, I've been to East Coast cons, but I used to live on the East Coast.  The farthest I've been since moving to Portland was to go to Anime Central.

Though, a friend of mine and I are considering going to Natsucomi  next year.
