It’s weekend, so I figured why not go for a change of scenery, remember my friend Dex the Myspace Man?
At the Comic-Con this year, he was interviewed by the guys from NerdSociety.com.. what is it about.. well, I’ll just let Dex tell you what happened…
“Hello fellow readers of Ramasscreen. com! I would like to take a moment and describe this video before you watch it.
I love anime, and the culture it has produced over the years. The fan base of Anime grew so large over the last decade that it became mainstream, and this “fanbase” would all gather at what is supposedly one of the best and biggest Anime Conventions of the year, Anime Expo! But as Anime Expo grew substantially larger every year, it became harder and harder to control this ever so growing culture/fan base that Anime has produced. So rules were established to control the convention, and to the fans dismay, the yearly meetups aren’t what they used to be. I experienced, first hand just how strict these rules can be. What was suppose to be a friendly and fun costume, turn out to be a disaster as I was almost permanently banned from Anime Expo, a con I loved for years. This is my story, told from my good buddies from nerdsociety.com
You may have seen my costume at Comic Con, and you may have taken a picture with me. I would like to say, thank you for appreciating it, as I do it for you guys/gals! ^_^”

It’s a sticky situation. In the end, Anime Expo has a say on the rules. But at least there’s Comic-Con!
