“The dance Saturday night was amazing! The music was lovely, the scene was rocking, and I enjoyed it 100%.”

No metal means NO METAL. You may not be the type of person who would hit people with it, but they cannot risk that since anyone can say that and someone could hurt someone...
–ValenciaCrowe in Cosplay: General
Nope. I'd rather punch Will Ferrell and Paula Deen in the face.
TPBM followed the white rabbit.
–Rawrninja in Can't Sleep, Con Will Eat Me...
I won't ask for something totally out of the realm of likelihood like Origa, as awesome as that'd be. Or The Thrill.
I think The OneUps would be a good fit. They do...
Which one? Most of them hate(d) me too.

Youmacon 2009 is a go. Metro Detroit's first and only anime convention is returning for its fifth year, and it's better than ever. Here at Youmacon, thousands of otaku from Michigan and beyond meet anime voice actors face to face, compete for masquerade and cosplay trophies, and shop for treasures of their favorite fandom. Youmacon's original events immerse you in the experience of becoming a Japanese chess piece in a game of shougi, leading a team to the Star in a live action Mario Party battle, and being served by maids in a relaxing cafe. And the fun never stops, because Youmacon provides all-night gaming and video programming, as well as a dedicated video/audio track featuring anime music videos and beyond. So let us exceed your expectations. For the fifth time.
