Cool I’m going to my first one in a couple more months and I’m dressing up as tsuyu (froppy) But no one else is dressing up as someone from bnha
One thing I always bring is a battery charger. I got the really powerful one that it charges my phone multiple times before it dies and it can go a few days with out needing to be charged itself. I went to anime LA and it lasted the whole weekend and I used my phone a lot

That's a great idea. I had one this year and didn't need it, but the backup was always there if I needed it.
Make sure you're comfortable in what you're wearing guys. A good practise I like to do after dressing up is the entire sequence of the Nutcracker (the Ballet) before I leave my house, yes.
My first convention is going to be Dutch Comic Con this year. My father got the tickets for me and him cause he loves comventions too, even it's gonna feel weird to walk through my first convention with my dad. but I still might have chance my only cosplay loving friend will go there with her mother so we could enjoy most of all the cosplay together.Thanks for the tips! =D
Ayyy Black Widow cosplay??
I want to like this sooooooooo bad, bud I love that the likes are 555 and I kinda don't wanna mess it up😂Thanks so much for the helpful tips. I am going to my very first con in 3 days and I am kind of (really super duper) freaked out, although I am feeling a bit better after this. Thanks again!
Your advice for buying things at the convention, is how I made the decision to buy tickets to my next convention. It's next week and I didn't get tickets until last week. I'd been debating for a while, and then finally went for it (and then screwed up and got two tickets instead of one :P ).
jeeaa i am going to my 1st convention in like 1 month or something and i am cosplaying yumeko yabami or hatsune miku and i am soooo exited🥺🥺🥺
you look sooo happy in this video and it's contagious! thanks for brightening my day :)
Well I just found a new favourite youtuber :D

First convention is next month boyyys Animecon hype
Ty for the tips!!
I would say that, in my case, the first tip is the most important one. I bought the tickets to a convention thinking that I was going to meet a group of friends there, but then they all canceled and I ended up having to go there alone. It was overall quite an awkward experience, even with all the compliments I got, I still couldn't feel confident enough. I also have no pictures of me on the event, because I was too embarrassed to take a selfie or to ask someone to take a picture of myself. In other words, I just didn't have fun. Don't go alone :)
The first time I went to a convention (mcm comic con )was probably when I was about twelve 😆I thought I would be so nervous and have a panic attack but no I was just so overwhelmed with excitement that I completely forgot about all of it ,it was so cool and everyone was so nice and there were amazing cosplayers and stalls it was like the best day, so don't worry too much about it because you'll of had an amazing time by the end of the day😄😁
My first convention will be in 26 days!! *-* Thanks for the tips, I am sooooooooooooooo excited! :D

I've been to about three different conventions (including comic con), but this time I will be going full out! I will be cosplaying Harley Quinn from the Batman Series, and thanks to YOU, I know exactly what to do from my costume, makeup, my bag to how to have fun! Love your channel!!
my first conventon is going to be on 11 september Singapore Toy Game Comic Convention. Im new to cosplay and im wearing suicide squad Harley Quinn and also im 13 years old...So exciteddd thanks for the tips!
Aa! tip 2 was a big for me. i just went to my first con, and i didnt have a friendo. luckly i had my parent pass, and a group invited me to hang. So take it from the both of us, have a con squad!
Sending this to my friend.~ She'll love this, especially with the birb.~
I can't stress the tip about bringing water enough!! at my last convention I was wearing a heavy costume and my friend and I both ended up missing half of the con because she passed out and I was on my way there. it really ruins a con if you're just sitting and feeling terrible the whole day
I'm actually going to my SECOND convention in march, so your tips are really going to help me out, so thanks!! I love your videos by the way, they've definitely helped me in being prepared! XD
Going to my 3rd this month!
My first convention is in 7 days, I can't be more exited ahhhhhh
ahh, my first con was Anime Expo 2013. it was fun and I cosplayed Videl from DBZ. 😄
Its black widow! Yeah!
I would have gone to my first con last week but it was canceled. I don’t have any friends who are nerds like me so I was going to go with my aunt and grandmother. Especially since my mom said I couldn’t go without my grandma. Maybe next year...
My frist con was GamesCom, i went there with my Best friends, and it was really good :D
Love the Tips! And now i wish i con was closer lol! i hate waiting lol but i get to wear one cosplay next month so that helps XD
My first con was EvilleCon 2016. I didn't go in Cosplay but I might be going to another con this year in Cosplay

I'm going to Liberty Con NYC this year and it's going to be my first time at a con! Im so excited!!
That was so helpful thank you so much!!!! :) This month I'm going to technically my 2nd convention but it's my first one going for all three days and in cosplay!! So thank you thank you thank you!
this helped so much im going to my 4th con and i just never really know what to do and how to act and i always feel weird and awkward so thank you so much!
can you please do a video on tips for hiding a bag within your cosplay? im doing something somewhat elegant but also cute and i don't know how to choose a bag or backpack that will fit well with the costume
I freaking love your bird
loooooove iiiit!!!
I might be going to comic con.
my friend joel keeps me from fanboying
If your worried about your phone dying during a con just do what I do and get a mobile charger! Trust me they usually have a 3-4 hour life and it only takes about 40 minutes to charge my phone and I have an iPhone 6! So I recommend that!! It's literally the BEST emergency charger for $15-$20 you'll spend!

+Managa101 true. i always bring a battery charger. But still, especially the camera on your phone sucks a lot of battery life. And it's just a good habit to have a separate camera.

+Axceleration Cosplay that's why I wish my video camera had a way to charge it with my mobile charger since most outlets at my cons are always taken xD

Axceleration thx. I'm currently planning a black widow cosplay for may 2017.
I'm going to my first con in March and I'm so scared. I'm going with friends but I'm still so nervous. I'm cosplaying as Castiel from Supernatural with extending black wings and I'm entering the cosplay comp as well and I'm so bloody nervous that it'll all go wrong or I'll get embarrassed or my friends will think I look bad and I'm so freaked
My first convention is gonna be wonder con 2016

has there been a time when u really couldn't decide what to go as if so how did u decide which one to choose
@AxcelerationDesigns
8 жыл бұрын
Oh man, all the time!!! Every con is a struggle to decide what cosplay to wear. Usually I'll wear my newest one but i always have my favorites that i want to wear too. And if I'm matching someone and they want to wear something specific. There's so many options! But yeah. Usually I'll choose to wear me newest or my favs or if Kevin wants to wear something I'll match him that day.

What you need to do is to go through a kind of checklist. First make sure you pick your MOST favorite characters, then breakdown and budget their outfits and choose form there!
Okay, so I'm 18 and hopefully going to a convention soon. I have a small understanding of what to bring to a con, and what goes on at a con. However, my HUGE concern is feeling like an outsider. I just have this huge suspicion that everyone who I try to talk to, or be friendly with will look at me like I'm the biggest mistake on Earth... And I'm also scared that no one will try talking to me... So, if anyone has any tips on that, please tell me!

Tessa Verel I believe she is.
1:48 On my Second con i was wearing an amazing dress i made without bra, i was confident, i was happy, i felt great, until my brother turn to me and silently said :" sis, you are not wearing any bra, are you ?" i was like : "Yeah.... Why?" and he answeard :"Well if you focus for a little you can see through the top" Well..... Fuck i have no idea how could i continue another 2 and half day of con after that in the same dress but i did. And somehow i forgot this fact and i enjoyed it.
Can you really use your creditcard 'and' cash money at conventions?

Let them know the places you will be going to, your plans, and what you'll be doing there. If they are concerned they just want you to be safe. Showing them that you have a planned schedule will show them you're more responsible. Always put safety 1st.
