Which one of you niggaz is making these threads

>>10964787
Look to the MOON and you will find da WAY

>>10964793
Ahh, I see. Thank you. Kind anon

>>10964796
All good anon >>10964388
South Florida anon rep!!!

>>10964783
Anime Central

Can you guys die already?
This is 6 months from now
Like genuinely shoot yourself in the head

>>10964808
No. Fuck off. I'm starting my plans right now because of this thread.

>>10964808
That one anon had it right.

>>10964808
Gotta save that for day zero

>>10964808
Do you not make plans in advance before the convention? You one of them lazy fellas who ask for a room the month of the con?

>>10964808
Hopefully they will soon since that seems to be the trend. How many deaths do they have now, 4-5? Last one was that guy from Michigan.

>>10964808
This. Last acen my friend got told to her face sheprobably likes BBC and is fat. FUCKING DISGUSTING

>>10964824
Was it true?

I did not get a room so I'm not really thinking about it

>>10964825
No she's a respectable nice kind and thin person, if I see the person who told her birds of a feather as a "light hearted line" and no I don't by the "it was about finding other gulls joke. It's revolting. I will lay down some hell.

I might do Asuka again.

I'm staying home because anime is gay and so are all of you

>>10964833
checked

>>10964831
Can you do burger king rei again? I know you out jew'd the jew Reisen that was EPIC!!! especially when you went on about the "haters" you have. Never met anyone who never fucked up in their life before and has so many haters. especially when walked into my room party, stayed an uncomfortably long time, annoyed the women, and I had to message the guy you told me you were. Why did you wear his bow man? I get nigga never coming back to acen since he moved to Japan or something but like man what gives?

You must be a legend.

>>10964824
She's probably fat and definitely nawt worthy of BBC. Save the BBC for a hot femboy like me.

>>10964839
hey old man. where's revcon at. i know you know

How do you guys meet up with people? Ill be going solo for the third year, feels kinda sad seeing everyone with friends. The official ACEN discord seems so strange/weird to wanna make friends there.

>>10964905
It is. Now people have discord and they meet with people they already know. At night you can talk to randos in the common area, even Thursday sometimes. Otherwise you might have to go through the discord. If you have any cons before then try making some contacts at those and join servers and ask who plans on going to Acen. Use common sense and be safe

How lame, another year alone.
I did meet up with some people from here 2 years ago, last year I did but it was awkward. Time to make friends IRL? fuck.

>>10964905
do NOT meet up with anyone from these threads.
They're all groypers, pedophiles, and nazi's with none of the fun that comes with that and all the drama/doxxing/drugging.

>>10964969
not to be weird, but met up with an 18 year old girl from the main discord. We hung out and ate. im 27.

I hope the Finn returns this year, I have nothing else to look forward to at ACEN

>>10964950
A lot of them are ok, just a select few you need to watch out for

>>10964978
None are okay those groups openly give passes to rapists/pedophiles
I’ve heard “but he’s my friend” after a dude statutory raped a 14 yr old LOL
They don’t see a problem with that because he’s the party guy

>>10964987
but he’s my friend

>>10964989
Make it three

I am very normal and sane and can be trusted to be awake past midnight at the Hyatt Regency O'hare

What do you think well see a lot of cosplays of? Rize?
I hate women so much its insane.

>>10964989
Its three but I also want invites
I got banned from main

>>10964974
Don't answer this

>>10964866
Even if I did know, why would I tell you?
Also probably younger than most in this thread.

>>10964925
He would like that

ACEN had an actual pedo as a guest and never even apologized. I wouldn't go for that alone.

>>10965061
Who? You?

>>10965061
Shotacon ≠ pedophile

>>10965073
Okay but what about her interest in actual 8 and 12 year old boys? Is that fine?

>>10965076
Her friend is a twig

>>10965061
ACEN is retarded because they completely shy away from idol culture and vtubers.
One of the organizers when asked about idol guests just went "lol, lmao".

ACEN also classically lacks in panels because everything is more "scrutinized" so the interesting panels go to midwest/magic/CAD instead because atleast they'll get accepted.

>>10965088
She was only 19 when she said the 12 year old was cute. And that's all she said. Also, 19 was consider to still be a minor in Japan at that time.

Anyone wanna meet up?

>>10965152
met some cool people last year

>>10965284
what "AI" did you use for this ?

>>10965288
Literally replying to an AI slop post.

>>10965293
Grok 4 Heavy (SuperGrok)

Aaaaa don't know what to cosplay

>>10965101
Acen 2022 had vtubers but hey were comically bad that year and so they've been effectively blacklisted from a lot of groups after they sold their guests on vivid mask mandates, then undid them right before the con.

Can we talk about something other than drama?

>>10965398
What do you guys think the big cosplay will be?

>>10965398
It's the same thing every ACEN thread and pretty much all the Illinois cons.

>Noting but drama because of those groups
>mods nuke all the comments
>ACEN finally comes
>That group just starts more shit and it goes critical.
>Mass deleting of comments.
>Thread dies.

It's always the same people too.

>>10965398
I think ACEN sucks and lacks variety!

>>10965384
they werent blacklisted, theres just a member of their parent organization who hates vtubers and idol culture.
Which is why they NEVER have idols OR vtubers OR maid cafes...

>>10965405
Good

this entire con is just faggot elitism failed to leave the nest cliques. mare fair mogs you

>>10965401

when the magic is gone but you keep going to the con sometimes ppl who took too much get delusional and think their life is an anime their friends are the characters and they make up dramatic plots

how embarrassing

What are these ladies cosplaying? Is this Show By Rock?

>>10965539

>>10965401
What a shame.
ACEN is the only con I really go to.

>>10965401
>>10965398
i'm here to talk about cons and ignore the retarded schizo shit.
Unfortunately theres so few non-schizos here that it's just me and like 2 others...

>>10965590
what are you thoughts on
the color temperature of the con center's lights

>>10965591
I have no fucking idea what "color temperature" means. I'm gonna assume like... how bright they are?
I dunno, the stephens could use brighter lights cause it gets REALLY hard to see out of a mask sometimes lmao.
Personally the best quirk of the Stephens compared to other centers like McCormick is that it has that 1 mile long walkway where the parking garages are on the completely opposite side.
Genuinely, ain't nothing like a comfy half mile walk from the hotel at 3 AM back to my car

I really wanna hotel nearby even though I live 40 minutes away. I wanna after party and maybe tinder date

>>10965596
I have a party both Friday and Saturday nights

>>10965599
You managed to get a room?

>>10965622
who didn't

As in people going alone

>thread went from 110 posts to 79
holy schizophrenia...

Anyways, ya'll excited for C2E2?

>>10966395
Not anime
No

>>10966395
When is that happening

This thread was made way too early, who thought it was a smart idea to make a thread for a con happening this year, last year?

>>10967031
Nah its fine the board moves slow anyway, it gives us a place to discuss

>>10967064
This is also the last con left that will get so many posts, so far out....for whatever that's worth

>>10967031
Probably just the pedo gulls making it so they can infight like always. All the threads from Illinois just got like 80% of their posts purged.

>>10967031
unironically the 2 retards who fight eachother in these threads made it to stir up drama.
Theres really only like 5 of us who arent schizophrenic and post in these threads

>>10967110
Oddly neither of us made this thread. One of the gulls did and I know which one.

Does anyone know where I can find a copy of the guidebook from last year? I checked the app and it doesn't look like they leave it up.

I might be called out, Klefta. I am a degen.
We are using 4chan, so of course.

>>10967722
dubs of truth

QUIC: to the Chicago 'nons actually in Chicago rn, dak of any place I can get the foundational Jirai Kei outfit at? You know the one, the black overalls and off-white shirt one. I want to wear it for AMKE next week. I know I can buy one of the slop mass produced ones on Amazon, but umm, I already have like 3 of those lmfao and they are really shitty. I walked around today after going to WWE SuperStore since it was gorgeous out and did some window shopping but couldn't find anything worthwhile. I did get some things I can work into a "casual" Chihiro (Danganronpa) cosplay but I'm not the biggest fan of "casual" cosplays, plus I really do want another high quality foundational jk fit.

>>10968670
what you should have done was not wait until the last minute and ordered some clothes from dear my love instead of amazon chinese sloppa.

>>10965073
Most truest thing said all thread.

>>10965750
hopefully in a cosplay from a non-shit series

>>10968763
>shit series
Heyyy Frieren isn't a "shit series", don't cha know, it's le heckin' BASED edgy just-saying-it-outloud common-sense series!

>>10968770
TDD

i still havent bought my chinese made amazon cosplay

>>10968777
You're running out of time

is the “not” black guy and his dickless alien cohort still banned?

Where that ftm that was there when the dude committed?

>>10968831
Well, considering most everyone "involved" only ever got BINO'd (Banned In Name Only), it goes without say no, they are not still banned and WILL be there unfortunately. At AMKE too.

>>10968835
They dress mad girly now (moreso than ever before) and use they/them pronouns more than he/him ones.

>>10968841
Lies and slander

>>10964833
Second most truest thing said all thread.

>>10968863
Unless the Baird Center and the surrounding hotels have partnered with Palantir or even ClearView AI for RT OD facial recognition or unless they drive there and one of the FLOCK ALPRs in the parking lots and surrounding area catches their car, they're getting there. So it's really up to you anon to make sure they're not there bothering anybody! I believe in you! You can do it! -^.^- You'd be the con hero!

>>10968865
>Unless the Baird Center and the surrounding hotels have partnered with Palantir or even ClearView AI for RT OD facial recognition
and even then, this is an event specifically DESIGNED to wear costumes and masks at, so facial recognition AI would have trouble identifying people

>>10968866
Matter of fact, if you really think about it, most people at a con are either wearing cosplay (and thus shoes and other garments that they don't usually wear) or carrying stuff (like their haul from DH/AA or a bag, purse, backpack, etc.) all of which alters gait so if it really comes down to it, gait recognition wouldn't really be that effective either. Damn, Makes you think, makes you think.

Out grooming their next victim like the rest of the Chicago groups.

>>10968995
I would believe that for the rest of the squad but not this one, a pure soul

>>10965061
allegations disproven, dipshit

>>10969052
get a load of this ^o^

>tfw you're too tall for a platelet cosplay
>tfw you're too short for a red blood cell cosplay
I got this really cute set of overalls and immediately thought of doing a rbc cosplay from Cells at Work but I'm too short :/ it'll look like I'm cosplaying a long lost rejected genderbend AU Mario lmaoooo

Now would have been a good time to create this thread, not last year

think there'll be a fire pit this year like last year?

>>10969494
I hope not, but then again it’s following the trend of getting worse with every terrorist attack during Midwest Furfest

>>10965539
This is Muse from love live. Their cat twin tail outfits specifically.

>>10969501
what the fuck are you talking about? I'm talking about an actual fire pit that was hosted on Saturday night by the back of the Hyatt that they allowed for some reason.
There were weenies and smores and shit

>>10969509
Sorry, I wasn't there for that and thought you were alluding to unfortunate events

this year will be my final, i hate going alone.

>>10969530
The Finn will accept you, if you speak Finnish

>>10969530
I'll accept you as long as your not a weird schizo who'll try to doxx me after you attempt to grope and drug me in your hotel room.

>>10969623
>gives u drugs and sex
>anon gets upset

wtf man

>>10969623
What

>>10965343
Five months to the MINUTE later and I STILL don't know what to cosplay. Aaaaaaa sooooo manyyyy things I want to cosplay Aaaaaa :D What are you guy going as? Does acen have one of those little graphics for cosplans? I haven't seen a 2026 one yet.

>>10969920
Hornse

>>10969920
Photographer

think ill just cosplay as miku, hope the 3XL from amazon fits my ass.

My wife and I will be there, hoping our stuff gets finished up by then. Kinda lost a bit of interest in the whole trip once finances started being bitched about despite the extensive list of cosplays & ravewear that was suggested. Oh well, c'est la vie. Hopefully I can find some decent merch this go around while trying to be the "scary dog" for my wife in her skimpy cosplays. Come say hi if you see a Hypno and Misty.

Is going Sunday worth?

>>10970039
You either bought the 3-day pass at its cheapest or are too broke for friday. Explain yourself
