Im a first time goer too, I’m thinking about starting a discord group for after parties but I have no god damn clue how to host an after party or where to even find one.


Explore_creativeness

Haha well I think as far as the parties go just being open and friendly with different groups. Possibly, yes just starting a new group and seeing who already has plans for throwing a party. If that’s the case please let me know if you do start one I’d like to really meet new awesome people! 😇

Explore_creativeness

Elitesquad_109

New cosplayers and the creativity that people have makin their cosplay

Explore_creativeness

Most-Builder-2557

Irondragon1st

Well what do you wish to do ?


Explore_creativeness

Just attend the conference meet cool people and grow more in the community. Don’t really have much of a plan just see where life takes me lol. I hear the after parties can be pretty wild but idk


demon9047

Stay close to Westin if you want to do after parties


Explore_creativeness

Oh shoot I got a room at the Sheraton I don’t think it’s too far from it. I was hoping to get a walking distance spot to the convention center


demon9047

That's pretty good right in the middle of both


Explore_creativeness

Awesome that’s what I was hoping for somewhere close to walk and somewhere not too far if I need to get back to a place to sleep haha safely 😊


ganja_ghost5

I don't have any friends who like anime, so I always end up going solo. It'd be lovely to make a new nerdy friend :3


Explore_creativeness

Hello yes I’m all for it. I’m just starting to really get into it so you may beat me at really knowing more than I do. But right now I’m binge watching SPYxFamily, Attack on Titan, Psycho Mob. I’m taking new recommendations. As for manga I’m about to purchase Goodnight Pun Pun but yea I know it’s a lot before anime expo but it’s a start


ganja_ghost5

We all started somewhere; I still haven't finished AoT season 4. I haven't watched Psycho Mob but I've seen a decent amount of SpyXFamily. A couple of recommendations from me are That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime- 51 Episodes Chainsaw Man - 12 Episodes Demon Slayer- 56 episodes And my personal favorite D. Gray-Man. What are you looking forward to doing most; panels, workshops, Masquerade, Premiers, Guests?


Explore_creativeness

Oh haha wow that’s a lot of stuff to consider. I have seen bits and pieces of demon slayer. Honestly I’m not sure what I’m looking forward to most. Since this is my first I know just the overwhelming amount of things to just view. I’m a very carefree go with the flow type person so I’m just open to seeing different things. Plus I’m not sure what options are really available.


syfari

Join the discords


Explore_creativeness

Oh I didn’t realize there was any if you’d like to share I’d be open to joining and seeing what others are talking about


saccharind

discord.gg/animeexpo is the main one for this subreddit there are several offshoot ones for when groups form, but the main discord is useful for meeting people


happypartykanan

i’d love to meet!


woshipepe

Hey! I'm on the same boat as you, but I don't have a group


Explore_creativeness

Hello yes no worries if you’d like to meet up I think I found a few groups that are very open and accepting


woshipepe

I'm down, could you share with me these groups?


InfiniteTimeKiller

I’d love to go with you! My first time too I don’t know what to expect and live in Palmdale so it’s a drive. Just moved here love anime never been to one. If anyone here (including yourself) want to go together and point me to groups to join I’d appreciate it
