Anime Central @ Hyatt Regency O’Hare/Donald E. Stephens

Loved the 2012 Con! We had a ton of fun and there were so many amazing costumes this year. Everyone was in such fine spirits. These are some of the nicest con-​goers that you will find. No one pushes or shoves, and they realize space is limited and sometimes a few bumps can’t be helped.
Artist Alley and the shops have expanded. Most things are reasonably priced and good quality. I have a huge wishlist of prints I want to order when I have the money. I only wish I could afford all the adorable outfits they sell.
We were a little disappointed about panels starting late (happens every year) and some not having much info printed or being canceled (BINGO and kids crafts). However, I made it to the Iruma Rioka concert and had a great time. My favorite workshop was learning a little Contact Juggling.
Hope to see everyone again in 2013!
