>>9748476All of my friends who live in the DFW area are coworkers or family, basically. My coworkers are all creatives, but they're much more into typical mainstream stuff and turned off by anime and comics, largely.
The one good thing for me is that FanExpo is at least not an ANIME convention, but instead a general nerd pop culture one. Means I can escape some of the worst cringe and not feel entirely out of place even if I do decide to go solo for a bit.
Other anons in the last thread are right, though. There's no way I should miss the chance to be there live when it's so relatively close to me, doubly so when I can see both Ame and Gura live together.
Real question is what the hell I ask them, if I get the chance to.
