MegaReCon - Doncaster (The Hub) 20th September 2008

[Demona]

I had an absolutely excellent time - but think a few things could use a bit of work for next time - What did you think? My personal view is the day could use an itinerary (to avoid confusion), a better sound system (Reki and I found it very difficult to hear what was going off) and the anime showing was... Ummm... Certianly 'choice' viewing (and the choice would generally have been not to watch it!). Anyway I'm just being picky it was great to have it held in Doncater but would be great to hear your thoughts!

[Reki]

Yeh I have to comepletely agree on all counts Demona, although that Anime was funny and I will make it my lifes work to A: Seek it out and B: NEVER watch it again!!! lol

I felt there could have been a little more, maybe some extra stalls with figurines of fave characters or cosplay things, stuff like that. I felt there was a lot of dead spots so we twiddled our thumbs and went and ate lol That sandwich was nice though lol

[Reki]

OK it didn't become my lifes work lol Just a quick search and I found it...It is called "Revolutionary Girl Utena: The Movie" you can find snippets of this little...errr..gem right here!!!

YouTube

Demona, why don't you go to the Movie review section and say it like it is! lol

[Reki]

I forgot to mention Nana Li's wonderful workshop. I really enjoyed it, I just wish it had been longer (I felt poor Nana was very rushed towards the end) and that there had been some handouts, that way we'd have had something else to work from other than our sad little scribbles! lol

My only other thing is I wished I'd fecthed my camera, but thankfully Jaynie has loaded some.

Thank you Jaynie great pics X

I think that they should have sold more merchandice, like plushies and things. I never actually saw the anime screenings, but my brother sat and watched it, but I don't know if he enjoyed it.
I also think that they should have let the public choose who won the cosplay competition.

I also have some more pictures, about 20 others if you'd like me to put them on as well (some are a little blurry, because I might have been jiggling my hand about as I took it O.o)

[Reki]

Yeh I agree on everything here Jaynie, seems unfaire we couldn't do the voting and plushies and stuff would have been brilliant.

More pictures?! Yaaay! Go ahead and load them. I'm gonna keep an eye on Tokyopop and see if they load anything there and also Neo. And if they do, I'll snatch some for here.

Well, I finally added the pictures I said I would, but it seems really quiet around here. We need more members :/
