When you feel the need to say that, chances are you know it's bad.

Her calf looks like it weighs as much as a calf.

>powerlevel
thanks for letting us know you're a f/a/ggot, but absolutely not.
I wear jfash though, but given the amount of "little bo peeps" i've gotten, normies don't care/know it's japanese fashion anyways.
also, that girl looks like a reject touhou character

Taking creepshots of spergs is worse than being a sperg. Bad show, anon.

I've heard "power level" from at least 20+ people who do not frequent 4chan, let alone /a/. It's an actual term.

(wanted to make the thread more neutral) It'll be my first 'big con', I hope I can finish my new suit by then

Really good guest list for a 1st year

You know, I have a lot of moments where I'm still shocked people even talk about this con on here. It's not big or amazing, so when all else I see is the big spectacles, I just fucking wonder.
Is it just we have that many gulls in Sac, or just the same small handful that come here to shitpost rather than FB?

I'm going with a couple friends for the whole weekend. They've never done a con before, so I'm pretty excited for them!

I've personally never done Sac before (mostly Fanime) and I'm not too sure what to expect but it'll probably be pretty lowkey? I'm going to just wear lolita bc it's easy... anyone know if there's gonna be a meet?

It's a very insular con. The people who go to sac anime tend to only go to sac anime.

I'm going to this event for the sheer WTF factor

Conbravo in t-minus 11 days and still waiting on some last supplies in the mail, kill me now. Not committing to finishing any Friday cosplans until I know I can get my other ones all done in time.
On the bright side, schedule drops tomorrow!

>Does anyone still give a shit about FanExpo?

Don't get me wrong, I still hate how money grubbing, overpriced and corporate Fan Expo is but it's still a better run con than AN. Especially considering AN's recent hotel fiasco. Also Fan Expo definitely has more relevant guests. I'm especially excited to see the creators and actor for Rick and Morty.

>Only Sheep Eat Rotten Tomatoes, A Dc Films Discussion
>BEHOLD sweet children - you’re being led astray!! Critics have roasted and lampooned the DC cinematic universe, leaving ROTTEN taste in the mouths of fans. But self-publishing comic writer, Victor Dandridge and his team of SUPER-FRIENDS, will reveal how Man of Steel, Batman v. Superman and Suicide Squad are the foundations of possibly the greatest franchise in cinematic history.
Fucking kek.

I usually just shave as close as i can and then apply cover up/foundation. Had no clue what makeup to pick out or how to use it, i had to ask my little sister. I use an electric razor, no shaving cream.

>tfw no sister to ask

I find good safety razors with a generous amount of shaving gel gets better results. If you still have a shadow after that you might want to look into a orange color correcting concealer to blend out the color.
Also ensure your makeup isnt drying or astringent to cause your skin to tighten up and expose more shadow, staying hydrated helps iirc.

If you are truly desperate. Facial waxing 2 days before the con. Leave a day or so for the irritation to calm down.

Good luck anon

I'd be interested in this too. The idea terrifies me since surely convention + lolita = sweaty weebs showing up in their totemo kawaii cat ears and shiny maid outfits.

>>9620180
The successful ones ban attendance for anyone not wearing Lolita and cosplays are specifically mentioned as not acceptable in a lot of event descriptions. Also the tea parties usually have ticket sales for a very limited quantity before the day of the convention so that no sweaty weeb who walks by and gets their interest piqued can waltz in and be annoying.

>The successful ones ban attendance for anyone not wearing Lolita
Sad to say but there's no hope we could ever have a con tea party here with a rule like that, even though it's 100% reasonable and I wouldn't have one without it. Con scene here is full of people who get buttblasted if you call their hell bunny rockabilly dress and unbrushed wig "not Lolita". I guess it's probably for the best.

I spent 2 years getting in shape but didn't work on my personality. Can you gulls help? How to deal with thirsty con girls? What do you look for in a long term partner?
I just want to cuddle and talk about cute coords.

Those shoes are fucking ugly and Misako's whole outfit doesn't read as lolita.

>>9618603
yeah no armwear, arrest her!

>>9618606
It's nothing to do with the armwear, it's the loafers plus a long plain normie dress plus a shawl plus fringe earrings.

I didn't have a cosplay for my first con so I just wore a neon green twintail wig instead and thought I looked cool.

In my defense, it was 2013.
