Hey guys, here's some conventions around our region that I'm familiar with and would like to go to. Feel free to add more! CosplaconNaka-konMotakuAhn!Con I'm sure there's more I'm blanking on, but those seem to be the ones closest to home. Also it looks like Invadercon which is something I'm personally very interested in is going to be somewhere in the midwest in 2014. Here is the kickstarter for it [[EDIT]] The location of Invadercon was decided - Austin, Texas and will take place sometime in 2014 (not yet specified) And so, it doesn't quite belong in the Missour/very near Missouri list, but I'm going to keep it on. [[EDIT]] Anime STLNatsuconKawa ConAnime Festival WichitaPlanet ComiconVisionConDoDeca-Con[[EDIT 2]] Greater Kansas City Japan Festival: This isn't exactly a convention, but it includes Anime & Manga, and a cosplay constest! The cost is low and the event near, so we may try to go as a group this year. www.kcjapanfestival.com/

Oh, neat! I hadn't known that Invader Con was a fan-funded thing that's being worked on, I thought it was just a new convention! (Sorry for not responding earlier, I actually hadn't been in this thread until now.)

Some other cons in and around Missouri that can be added to the list: Anime STL, Natsucon, Kawakon (all STL area cons), Anime Festival Wichita, Planet Comic Con (Kansas City), Visioncon (Springfield), and Dodeca-con (Columbia, MO)

(Sorry for not responding earlier, I actually hadn't been in this thread until now.) I'm excited just for the fact Invader Con exists, but it has been revealed to be in Austin this year, which may be too far away for me, sadly. I hope it continues to be a yearly thing so I can possibly go someday. They say this is going to be the last one, but that's what they said about the first and second so I'm not so sure hahah
