Hola! :)

Securitysam - I just moved as well (from a different region of the US, so I don't know anyone out here lol) Marbleyes - I agree with Sprache, very awesome that you are cosplaying your own character! I too am an unoriginal person, and in addition to that I am incredibly slow when gathering costumes, so I understand not having the time to plan a costume from an established series. This is my first time going to AnimeMidwest as well, although it is definitely not my first con. I have to say that I think I am the odd one out here as I am actually not all too familiar with many animes aside from what my friends tell me. I go to conventions as more of a social activity for me lol But my favorite shows include Hannibal, Criminal Minds, House, and Beyond Scared Straight (lol I watch weird mainstream TV).
