Photo Shoot Picture Album: ACen 2013, Here's the Album behind the Elevator Bank. This was where there is live music and sometimes people hanging out. You'll find us there incase of rain.

I hope you all enjoyed this event and I will see you next year! This is the photoset from one of our photographers. I will have the link up to the other soon I hope. Sorry for the wait.

Awesome, and Another riddler fan!

As I said multiple times, for these older series we need a sort of mega group. Take for example, Tenchi Muyo! Despite everyone saying how much they loved it, this was the entirety of the shoot in 2012.



Needless to say, I think combination of smaller groups would work to our benefit, but the organization is going to be the killer.

[OtakuAngelD]

I'll be there as Ryoma from Ranma 1/2....if I can find the place. lol

I want an LoGH (late 80s to early mid 90s OVA series) Imperial Admiral Uniform... The only thing is, I don't want to order those online (crap quality) and is unsure if I want someone to make them for me yet (planning to lose weight first and then earn the money for commission). sooo... ;\

[rondo]

Thumbs up for nostalgic cosplay, especially from the 80's.

Tenchi Muyo!

Thiss is totally what I think of when I think of 'oldschool'.

I remember being in 4th grade and not even knowing what "anime" was, but knowing I like whatever this crazyness was going on on my TV.

Cool idea, I'll be curious to see what comes about!

[Santa Finland]

I just watched the live action Ranma 1/2 and I really want to cosplay my favorite character from the series, Ukyo Kuonji. It's sort of going to my cosplay roots. My first cosplay was Sango from InuYasha. For those not aware, the two characters are very similar, they actually share a voice actress in the English dubs.

ZOMG!!! We should totally get photos. Ryoga/Ukyo is a very popular fan pairing. Yes, I happened to be one of those who ship it.

Pretty sure this counts since it's 16 years old, but I'll be cosplaying as Misato Katsuragi from Neon Genesis Evangelion, and my friend will be cosplaying as Ritsuko Akagi from the same!

[Linny Binny]

Are the more popular series involved in this as well? Such as Sailor Moon, DBZ, Gundam Wing, etc... Since they're older series from the early 90's. Just wanted to clarify!

I'm debating on some of these, given the fact that there's going to be a new Sailor Moon series coming out, so I'm pretty sure there will be more Sailor Moon cosplayers coming out too, same with DBZ, although Gundam Wing I'm seeing less of.

I'll put it to a vote on the top, if more popular series from that period should be involved or not. I really really really don't want what happened last year with the MLP situation.

I wasn't at the MLP photoshoot so I have no idea what happened. I'm curious, could you fill me in?

[Cherry_Wolf]

Omg this looks so cool! I will always still want to cosplay Ron from Kim Possible... maybe I can convince my sister to do Kim and we'd go to this shoot!

Would Kim Possible count? o.o

Apparently some of the more rowdey pinky pies caused a distrubance around the video room last year, and confettiee was thrown, which should not have been causing the Video group to clean up a mess that they weren't supposed to.

@Cherry Wolf: I think...given the year, I'm going to start including early 2000s to the list too as a means of opening it up for some other series that came out at the start of the mellium. So yeah Ron and Kim would be awesome.

We will be doing a Sailor Moon group this year, so hopefully we will be a part of this ;D

[Leaf]

Will Revolutionary Girl Utena count? We've had lots of trouble getting the cosplayers together in the same place at the same time. :|

[Selfius Valrin]

I'd love to cosplay as Gene Starwind from Outlaw Star for this. This may cause a conflict with my plans to do Gendo for Eva though. Once the boss beard goes away, so does Gendo.

Sorry for the late Replies,

Sailor Moon, Revolutionary Girl Utena, Gene would be welcomed.

My only request is simple. One, lets not over do it with the Anime, I may have to divide this up as different shoots at different times. But I'm willing to work with this.

[Delta's Back!]

What about CowBoy Bebop?

Yes, but then again as I said. Let's not over do it.

[Naima Katara]

Would Excel Saga be included in this? I've been "working on" an Excel and Menchi cosplay for 2 years now and I'd love a push to finish it!

Yes but again, no over doing the anime. (May need to see if next year to have two different shoots, one for west and one for east)

Also I need ideas on times and places since I need to fill out the form, and if anyone knows a photographer that will work for cheap (I have a feeling my main one won't be coming this year again) I would love to know so I could get in touch with them.

Thanks.

[roserosered08]

I know it's a pain when you have a series posted and ten people commit but that 10 can go down to 3 or up by 100 XD

Im going to be liliana vess from magic the gathering but I don't know if it will be old school yet. I might just do the updated version but if I do the older version Ill join.

[CrimsonAnime]

I am planning to do Raven from Teen Titans the cartoon....is that Nostalgic? Feels nostalgic...

[Graphospasm]

Well, reading the above posts has left me in a bit of a quandry. I cosplay Utena, Carmen Sandiego, and Velma from Scooby Doo--what to wear to the shoot?? Ack! XD Any thoughts on my choices, compatriots?

[Dark Spellmaster]

Okay firstly I found out I was too late to submit right now for the gatherings. (rubs head) Finally got a photographer, but urgh, I don't know what to do. How many people would like me to see if I can still get into the gathering, or option two: How many would like to help me plan for next year to make sure that I get everything together on time and know how many want to do this.

Suggestions please!

[Eddiebphotos]

If timing works out I'd love to stop by for a few shots.. I'm very nostalgic to 90's anime/cartoons!

[CrimsonAnime]

I'd like to see if we can't get a gathering spot this year since there is already some interest in it now.

[Dark Spellmaster]

Working on it. My own fault for not being here enough and dealing with life. >_>
