#banzaicon

Statement begins... 👁

The last day of Banzaicon is done, and I had a great time as Denki as always 🖤⚡️

So, thoughts on Banzaicon 10 Homecoming

I'll be posting pics from the con later, but for now I'll just talk about how banzaicon was this year.

I had a good time cosplaying with friends, seeing other cosplayers and buying from the artstands. However I was a little disappointed.

Because of the downsizing of the con it was pretty hard to get around, with people crowding and I was pretty overwhelmed.

Unfortunately a lot of people were not great at being considerate of other people's cosplays, and would push through roughly without apology, and pulling on part of my friend's cosplay.

That was not the fault of the con though.

What I found more disappointing from the arrangement side was the choice to place the artstands in the main hall, with the main stage. This meant that the artstands were rendered nearly completely inaccessible every time something happened on the main stage, as it got very crowded, and they switched the lights off.

And there was often something happening on the main stage.

I feel bad for the artstand owners.

The food options, while tempting, were also a little disappointing, as they had no options for my friend with a milk allergy. Only lactose free or gluten free, nothing could be made without dairy.

Dealers Hall also felt a little bare to me, compared to previous years.
