First things first, especially since I knew how busy a certain booth would be, I ran straight to the arcade booths...with my handle disposable gloves to play Pop'n Music. Yeah, sorry but I had an unfortunate consequence of playing with video games in a public area. So, I was trying to prevent that from happening.
After playing 2 rounds of the game, I wondered about in the showfloor. I remember seeing an attendee with Sailor Moon posters, and I asked where she got those. She didn't know the name but directed me to the booth. It was the New York Public Library booth, who was giving away Sailor Moon posters. Oh yeah, I definitely got all that was available.
More wondering and I can see the popularity of the voice actors from Overwatch, especially the female voice actress. Her line was never ending and you could barely see the price of her autographs on her table. (-_-); At least, someone knew to place the guests in a good spot to avoid traffic issues and have good line control.
There was one booth in particular that, well, it wasn't the best spot for their Sailor Moon voice actors. Even though the aisle had ample space, it didn't last very long with the guest signing at the booth. It was only two voice actors from the series too!
Across this booth was the Aniplex USA booth, who had a lotto event and you had a chance to win a pack of cards. It was getting close to the last hour of the showfloor, so it wasn't worth it for me to wait. At least they had some line control.
Being that Sunday is the last, I figured booths are packing up, but seeing THIS takes the cake! Somebody was ready to go to get things on a truck and bounce!
Check out my goodies and see you next year!
