One interesting anime convention story is when I saw a cosplayer who had made the most elaborate and accurate Sailor Moon costume. It was like she had stepped right out of the anime. She even had all the accessories and the hair was styled perfectly. Everyone was crowding around her for pictures.
There was a time when the air conditioning broke at an anime convention. It was in the middle of summer, and everyone was sweating buckets in their cosplay costumes. The smell was horrible, and it made the whole experience really uncomfortable. Some people even fainted from the heat. Cosplayers had their makeup running, and it was just a mess.
At a particular anime convention, there was an artist alley filled with incredibly talented artists selling their anime - inspired art. I got to talk to one artist who was drawing a beautiful piece right in front of me. He told me about his inspiration for his art and how he started creating anime - related art. I ended up buying a really cool print from him. And also, there was a cosplay parade where all the cosplayers walked through the convention center showing off their amazing costumes. It was like a mini fashion show of anime characters.
There was this anime convention where the fire alarm went off in the middle of the night. Everyone had to evacuate the hotel where the convention was being held. But it turned out to be a false alarm. However, in the panic, people lost their personal belongings, and some cosplayers lost parts of their elaborate costumes. It was a nightmare for many.
