Glad to be invited to your lovely looking convention Syracuse! We plan to give you all a good time with our brand of short form improv comedy. Check our website to learn more about our Canadian troupe, and know we’ll get you involved and laughing for your anime joking entertainment! We’re looking forward to coming across the border with laughs in tow!
The amount of guests vary, but I think we’re going to have a good crowd! And if you come in costume you don’t have to join the judging. =)
This would be my first time coming. So how many people come to this event? If I dress up as a cosplay do I have to enter the judging?
For people that wanna group up as bleach or just group up, email me at, dragonlord85@hotmail.com
Your very welcome. See you at the Fevstival ^-^
Thanx a lot Jonney, i have to see if my dad will take me to hot topic.
@ ChelsieS. your best bet, if your not ordeing 1 online, would prolly be hot topic and make a random and uniqe outfit. Then theres the mascarade shop on errie, maybe get the school girl uniform. what anime doesnt have a girl in uniform, right? lol. well good luck with that, hun.
My friend and I are going as Characters from the cartoon Ben 10 this year!

my dad said “maybe”….>w<
hehehe he better say yes though….my costume is almost done! but if he says no, maybe my grandma will (lol)

My mom might let me go~ ^^ I’ll probably be Oz Bezarius (Maybe you saw me as Oz at Tora Con 2010 ^^)
My dad said I might get to go!! I wanna cosplay as Zuko, or someone from Ouran High school host club. x3
Me and my friend are making a trip down to go!

Hhmmmnnnn … this convention sounds promising. Might be going with a group of Naruto cosplayers, so watch out for us~

Going to find a girl with my same interests xD
I’m SOOO going! I’ll definately be Naruto so look for me! ^_^ SEE YOU ALL THEN!!
i was just told about this from a friend. i might bring back Hollow Ichigo. not really sure though.
@tuna: yeah fire alarm sucked >__<. and what made it funny were the cars beeping at all the cosplayer.
I really want to go >< If I do, this would be my 2nd convention! And I actually learned about this from the first one I went to xD They had these people there with buttons
And if I can go I'll probably try and make a Rin Kagamine cosplay… If I can't finish it in time, I'll probably just buy a cute dress from Hot Topic and make some cat ears 
Cause I don't wanna wear a wig again xD
The schedule is still in flux as we try to fit in all the fun. As soon as we have firm details we’ll post them up!
