NZ Anime Convention
May 8/9th 2010
Castle Complex, Otago University

So, we have confirmed dates: May 8/9th! This time round it's "The NZ Anime Event", run separate from 'Geddon and focusing entirely on anime. To quote;

Quote :: We are keeping it a sole event separate from the Armageddon Expo’s so that we can give it the attention that it deserves. This will be a two day event, with screenings, a proper cosplay (which will link in with a nationwide contest we hope to run at the expo’s in 2010) and most importantly a number of general anime events, a party and more. This will be a FULL anime convention, and something that we hope many fans from all over NZ will travel to.

Towards this aim, we will be seeking people who want to help run new events at the show, so if you have any thoughts and ideas on events, please post them on this forum and email us at info@pulpexpo.com. I want to have a cool anime logo for the event. Anyone who wants to make something up and email it to me would be appreciated.

Who's planning on attending? What're your cosplay plans? Do you have any ideas for events?

Lol me too... I wonder if yamaguchi-sensei will come...

By **JVCA**. 15/06/09, 05:48 am

@Lucy and Ryan: I'd be worried if you guys weren't attending. Razz

By **seraphik**. 15/06/09, 05:56 am

it'll probably end up like DAE, i'll wake up and decide to go back to sleep and ryan will wake up hungover and just not go.

and matt will forget.

By **JVCA**. 15/06/09, 06:00 am

d-don't say that. D: Half the reason I want to GO is to see you guys!

same here! ;o;

By **seraphik**. 15/06/09, 06:02 am

WELL IF JESS AND JEN ARE COMING I WILL DEFINITELY ATTEND

plus, since it's in our hometown, we have to represent dunedin to the utmost of our abilities. the competition is ONNNNN, bitchez.

By Ryans-cupcake. 15/06/09, 06:04 am

SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEET
It's not after my birthday like this year! So I won't be hungover....

Although it is a day of the week... and those are the days i normally get drunk...

**Guest** Guest

Hurrah!

heh, it -might- be me being the hungover one this time, as it's actually on my birthday. I guess we'll have to wait and see...

but yes. competition. BRING IT. <3

By **seraphik**. 15/06/09, 06:10 am

WE'LL TAKE YOU OUT FOR AN AMAZING NIGHT ON THE TOWN. Y/Y

By **JVCA**. 15/06/09, 06:11 am

*chortles at the idea of Jen being hungover*

OHOH COMPETITION. CLAN BISCUIT AND NINETEEN INCH THUMBTACKS JUST BECAME RIVALS.

@Lucy: I choose Y. Very Happy

By **seraphik**. 15/06/09, 06:13 am

IT WILL BE AWESOME. 'cause we know the good clubs... right ryan... and dunedin is the party city. go students! \o\

WE WERE ALWAYS RIVALS. BUT RIVALS IN FRIENDSHIP

By Ryans-cupcake. 15/06/09, 06:14 am

Oh we know all the clubs.
It will be awesome.

So um... if we're rivals... how about a drinking competition.

By **seraphik**. 15/06/09, 06:14 am

don't challenge ryan to a drinking competition

i did it once and i lost miserably

By **JVCA**. 15/06/09, 06:17 am

I think I will take your advice, Lucy. ._. *hopes like crazy that Paul doesn't stumble across this thread*

*cackles* I wonder how keen Jen is on this idea though...

By **seraphik**. 15/06/09, 06:20 am

if it helps, ryan is like a personal security guard. it's really handy.

By IcyRose. 15/06/09, 06:20 am

Obviously I will be there as well. I mean I was at DAE, and not many others were. Also helps that it's no longer within the period of doom that is Armageddon season

By **seraphik**. 15/06/09, 06:25 am

lennon you're still bitter about us not going aren't you

i know you are

By IcyRose. 15/06/09, 06:29 am

Oh yeah, I'm still bitter. But I know you all had excuses. And also expected you all to be hungover since Ryan's party was the night before

By **seraphik**. 15/06/09, 06:31 am

OH.

that's the night i drove up mt. cargill at 3am.

By IcyRose. 15/06/09, 06:34 am

Yes it is, and from what you told me you got lost.

By **JVCA**. 15/06/09, 06:42 am

Why on earth were you driving up mountains at 3am?

Having the Anime Event so much later after armageddon will be nice - less stress, plus more to tide me over in the gap between chchgeddon and DO. X3

...it saddens me that already Jen and I are working out our 2010 cosplay plans. :C
