So what's up with Anime California, is it any good? I've heard that it's decent from some in passing, but other people are saying that it's the same shady shit that AM2 was, resurrected under a different name.
Could someone please tell me where I can find a list of all the anime conventions in California? It's for my girlfriend, she's really into anime. So far I only know AX.
It's a smaller ALA more or less

It's okay. I go mostly to masterbate.

Bumping for answers, sounds like something to keep in mind while I wait for AX

SoCal: Anime Expo, Anime California, Anime Los Angeles, Pacfic Media Expo
NorCal: SacAnime, Fanime
(I'm from SoCal, so I don't really know that many cons up north)
I've gone since it began three years ago. I've always liked this con. It's very homely and fun.
Anything about the alleged AM2 connection? I tried looking it up and nothing.
Also how is pmx if anyone happens to know? I'm choosing between pmx and anime california as my inbetween con for ala and ax.

Do PMX if you're into jfashion. Otherwise pick the other con. Anime at PMX is poor.

Ok thanks! That would follow, I happened to be in Pasadena during the last day of the last pmx and I saw a lot of lolitas walking around but not so many cosplayers.

The only thing sketchy about Anime Caljfornia is that it is owned by Ryan Kopf. If you don't care about that Anime California is good.
Any Photographers going to this con? i can't seem to find any
Speaking of which, does anyone know any good photographers they'd recommend in SoCal or NorCal?

He's not part of west coast cons.
>con dates aren't announced until a few months prior to the convention
>same for the hotel
>panels aren't even accepted until literally a month before the convention
It seems pretty unorganized this year but that's just my interpretation. Been going for 3 years now.

Stop your lies Ryan, nobody believes you.

PMX was the week after AC last year, so most of the cosplayers just skipped PMX.
Lolita aside, if you prefer socializing and partying, PMX isn't good.
