Anime Expo 2017: All About Day 2
This is a special blog entry that details my Anime Expo 2017 experience on day 2. I cover the following topics in this order:
- Welcome to the Ballroom
- We are X: The X Japan Documentary
- Shall We Date? Booth Experience
- Losing my Kabe-don Virginity to Hiroto
- Gintama hauls
Please feel free to scroll to the section you’re most interested in but I of course think it’d be best if you read my entire entry. 😉 Happy reading!
I had purchased a 4 day pass for Anime Expo 2017 with the determination to attend AX all four days. That didn’t happen, unfortunately since I didn’t attend day 1. And while this may come across as a bummer, it was actually a good thing I wasn’t present for day 1 since day 1 was only about lines, lines and well, more lines. My friend/coworker was actually waiting in line for four hours just to obtain her badge. Can we say what!?! Yeah, so not cool. So, I’m glad I wasn’t there on day 1 to be part of that hot mess.
Anyway, enough on day 1. Let’s talk about something more exciting: day 2 at AX 2017. Unlike my first time experience with AX back in 2015, I came quite prepared to conquer this time around. I actually knew what I wanted to do. (That AX 2017 app was helpful in planning out my own AX agenda.) And I got to do what I wanted to do. For the most part anyway.
The first thing I did after getting my badge and going through an entrance line was head over to the main events hall. Didn’t know where the heck it was but I somehow figured it out with the map, thankfully.
