Kawaii Kon

Moved topic to Event section!

Would it be possible to have a Pokemon Tournament? Like how there was a Magic Tournament at Kawaii Kon 2013? I know a couple of people from my own school who would have interest in something like this. If you are talking about having Pokemon TCG available to play at our Tabletop Game department, we...

I heard that next year Kawaii-kon will possibly have all 3 floors rented out!!! This I really hope comes to pass!...Please keep the Kawaii Lounge...Is there anyway we could possibly do a flash mob?...So thatʻs about it and question, has their been a theme set for next year??? - You heard right! We ...

I'm sorry that your experience with our staff was not pleasant! We want everyone who comes to have the best experience of Kon-life here as Kawaii Kon. We are currently thinking about creating a way to help our staffers even more in becoming professional, helpful, and educate them in correct procedur...

Hi, I'd like to say I really like the idea of Dealers Room and Artest Ally moving downstairs, also loved Registration this year. I was wondering if possibly there could be better guest? As much as I love Johnny, I don't really care for repeat guest (especially year after year)... Put your suggestio...

I meant the two video rooms. I keep forgetting that they were down the hall from Registration... Love the size of the theater room though! Oops! Actually those had signs as well! If they weren't there let us know so that our Admins can double check that they are all put up next year. Video 1 was gr...

1. That dealers room needs more space. either that or the staffers need to start walking the isles and yell at folks to "Make a hole" or something 2. keep the register table in a room. Sure It makes the hallway a bit spacious and empty, but it does give a professional feel to the area and...

Awww thank you! We are glad that you enjoyed your time with us!

About the rule to not be able to run off stage, does this imply that there is absolutely no way of making someone out of sight? For instance, you couldn't kill someone (in a PG-13 manner) off stage briefly, and then return back onto it? Or does this mean you just can't hop off of the stage, but sti...

I heard some comments about how there should be more hallway events because they felt like there wasn't enough going on. This could be a good opportunity for people to advertise their upcoming panel and draw more people in. I agree. Hallway events don't have to be scheduled necessarily but can be s...

I don't know if we could provide an umbrella for con-goers, but you are absolutely able to bring any photographic tools like umbrellas, reflectors, and the like with you when you take your picture.

Hey guys!
Liked 2013 but really want to see even more? Put wants, wishes, and desires down to see for 2014 events and panels. We want to hear from you!!!

This panel is on Friday at 6pm in the Kawaii Lounge which is located in the Ala Moana Hotel!

I'm going to move your post into the Artist Alley section. I'm sure that an Artist Alley director will reply to you very soon!

This might be something that we would do still, but it is definitely back burners for the moment. It would be a great way to promote for year 10 so I wouldn't call this one dead yet!

I'm glad they are at the same table/area so there is time to get autographs from all of them in the allotted time. Before people were able to get a signature on two things and a picture if it was allowed. Will this year be the same? Just wondering if they are at the same table if it will be possibl...

Hi there I have a question about the autograph schedule. Is Johnny Yong Bosch only doing autographs on Friday because by the looks on the schedule Todd Haberkorn And Colleen Clinkerbeard will be doing autographs all at the same time won't it hard to get all three of their autographs. :cry: Actually...

If we could get clones, we would be the best freakin' events department around. Ever. Quick, someone get to work on that for us!

I was also wondering if shoes are required because the character that I'm cosplaying as, she does walk around barefoot but if shoes are required I'll make an exception .-. or even if they are can I survive with just socks :D I'm sorry but the Hawaii Convention Center requires guests to wear appropr...

Welcome to Kawaii Kon! Thank you for getting so excited about this year. I merged your topics since they were all very similar. If you have any questions, let us know!

Welcome to the forums!! ~~<3

We love this idea! Anyone want to help out with this?

We would like to showcase all of your hard work and allow others to learn of your trade! Please help us! Submit a panel if you can.

Speed dating allows you to very briefly get to know fellow otaku in a fast pace, fun way! Afterwords you'll be give then chance to follow up the conversation through email.

Right now we're just wanting anything that has to do or related to the topic of Steampunk. Just give us a poke! We'd love to chat!

Go for it!

If anyone is interested or knows anybody who is interested in hosting any steampunk panel, please feel free to contact myself or my co-director, Courtney. Since we are asking for these panels there is going to be an incentive for t...

Fantastic! We will definitely get that done, you're not the first to ask about them!

Thought I'd bring this up again since it seemed this year's Otaku Speed-dating didn't improve at all... Otaku Speed Dating Just thought I'd add my thoughts of last year's one and this past week's one. Last year it was really hard to hear the person in front of you talking and it was hard for them t...

If you would like to make a suggestion for next year make sure to check out the event suggestion thread for 2013!

Just FYI: All matches will be done by next Saturday, the 31st

We're not having a Unplugged Panel, per say this year. However Chris Sabat is running a very similar 18+ event on Saturday night.

We can't do/say "R@v3" because of legal reasons

You got it! Just think well dressed and you'll be fine

This will be my first con in Hawaii and i've been to a lot of conventions on the main land and I was wondering if Kawaii Kon has a Friday/Saturday night dance? Everyother con i've been to has one so I thought I was ask. If you mean get up and shake down, move your booty dance then yes! We have a da...

Good. Heavens. I finally get internet installed in my new place and I come back to this massive list!!
Great job guys! Remember though if you want your photoshoot to be in the program guide then you'll need to submit it soon! If it's not been submitted on MY sheet then it's not going to be in there.

Okay guys, I know that this might be a bummer to some of you but we will only be running a 18+ Otaku Speed Dating event this year. Reasons being we want to avoid any legal problems that we could stumble upon in the future for this. I know, I know...big bummer and you can chew me out at the con for d...

Thank you all for your submissions!!! I'll be sending out acceptance emails shortly!
You guys are my favorite con!

Operation Shoestring wrote:Hmn, how about a tabletop roleplaying panel? Live campaign run using BESM or Exalted, maybe?

I don't think that would be out of reach! Hit up our gaming director in the gaming forum and see what he can do

Ahhh I could have given you those maps

Usually I show the schedule to the panelists a month before the con. However there is a loophole. If you ask me what your status is before hand I will absolute LOVE to tell you!!

I'm just someone who while trying to figure out when the photoshoots she was attending would be decided it might be easier for everyone if something like this was made. ... Also someone looking for creative and productive ways to procrastinate studying for exams. ^^; Heh heh... You SHOULD be on the...

Since I'm such a old time yokai themed junkie I'm re-watching Natsume Yojincho and then starting up Nura: Rise of the Yokai Clan . Now don't get me wrong I LOVE all historical dramas and old yokai themes but they usually are based around young men. Does anyone know any yokai/historical dramas that a...

WOW!!! You guys are amazing, I just started to put together a preliminary schedule here and boy it is full! I have only seven, hour-slots left for Saturday and only one of those hours is a prime time hour! I just want to say thank you to all of those who contributed toward KawaiiKon 2012. Chuu~~<3
