The gaming schedule kinda got screwed by last minute changes, so I've had a few free slots to check out the rest of the con for a change. A-Kon has gotten quite big... something like 8000-10000 attendees I think. I have to say that other than the (usually too underaged to be sexy) eye-candy and the gaming, I don't really find Anime cons to be my kind of scene. I like anime, but not that much. The con dances are more raves with lots of spectators; the dealers & artshow are great if you love the saucer-eyed waif look (furry / bdsm options available upon request); and the programming is good for people looking to get seriously into cosplay, manga, hentai, and/or meeting the people who create it for a living.

In any case, I've had a chance to get reaquainted with some old gaming buddies, vist with [livejournal.com profile] roninjedi, and even ran into an Austin friend Kat who runs Dragonscale Chainmail & Leatherworks.

So, in short: fun but not quite as fun as originally envisioned. Still, nice to see somevfolks and I'm really looking forward to a few days in Austin.
