AM2's Fashion Modeling

"Ready to strut your stuff on the runway? This summer’s most anticipated anime, music and manga event, AM2 is now looking for attendee models to wear some of the hottest and latest fashions from Japan and show them off at fashion shows during the three (3) day convention event. Attendees interested in fashion and becoming models on the catwalk for AM2’s Sixh and Putumayo fashion shows can register here.

Deadline is May 15, 2012.

Note: Interested parties can register online below and those selected will receive a one (1) day fast-pass/Passport and will receive all benefits associated with it for themselves. All participating models selected MUST show up for a scheduled fitting prior to the event.

"Eh, can't find a recent vid for Putumayo."

"Liquid courage of if 10fingersmikey comes over... done deal..."

I still have no idea where I want to go this year, but man, I've been spending moola up the arse recently, so either AX or AM2 sound pretty mean to my wallet at this time (I blame it on the pre/summer movies... THE AVENGERS!!! WOO!!!)... So any "free" entry is working wonders for me...

... and I nominate Lale to model!

LiSA is performing at AX this year! I'm going! AM2 needs to come up with something soon. The My Little Pony panel is not holding my interest.

^ LiSA! Yeah you're right about that! But I'm pretty sure we can cause a ruckus at the My Little Pony's Panel as well... If anything, I'll turn that Little Pony into a Ghetto Pony... HA HA!

But I agree, the Music Artists this year are pretty slim for both conventions... Hopefully something pops unexpectedly like last year... *cough* another SCANDAL concert *cough*... Last year it was Hatsune Miku vs SCANDAL... of course, I picked flesh over film... HA HA!

So far, it looks like i'm going to AX.


Also, Sixh. is coming back to AM2 this year and will also be performing.

If I get picked to walk the runway, then I'll probably do AM2 on whatever the fashion show date is, then do AX afterwards... AM2 holds a sentimental value in my dead black heart, so I don't wanna bail out of them this year...

I told my friend that I registered for the show and he laughed his a$$ off...
"HA! YOU walk the runway? Please, I'd imagine you jumping over $hit and all that stuff before you reach the end of the catwalk."

Such a true statement... But yeah, I think I'll throw a little white on this year and join AX's Maid Cafe... Why not? They can play maid and I'll be a ghetto butler...

Im going to AX, I hope more people go too so we can hang out like Am^2 and make it an awesome experience! :D

bigOeyez,

I would rather see you in the Maid's outfit. Now that would be worth it!

@ DC: Duly noted! I'm a rather handsome man and if I happen to don women's clothing, I become an elegant handsome man... Can't be as bad as Man-Faye and all the rest of the infamous crossplayers... *shudders*

I have a feeling you would be the most requested Maid there. The other Maids would get jealous and try to do you in ; )

I'm most likely be at AX doing Bandai stuff. Assuming Bandai still has stuff after they closed shop this past January

Anime Expo announces..................ANIMETAL USA!

It looks like AX is stepping up since AM2 had SCANDAL last year. AM2 is coming up way short this year.

From what I heard, AM2 is going to announce the rest of their guests soon:

I... I am not sure what I want to do yet but I wanted to try and cosplay something that matches my physical characteristics, I was thinking on doing Alphonse's armor from FMA or Daru from steins;gate, anyone up to join me? I think it would be a cool experience considering I've never done it before

If I can make it out (granted a band I like is showing up) Lale I'll be willing to Cosplay something with you lol, I mean we do look the same, I mean...

I do see the resemblance... HA HA!... I don't do cosplay, but for some reason... It became coincidental with me and one of these guys...

...

More guests have been announced. AM2 has announced Hiroshi Nagahama. AX has announced FictionJunction.

So, Ax keeps getting better and better while AM2 hasnt announced any big musical guests yet...

@Noodles
Yup...still looks like I'm going to AX. I'd like to return to AM2 but I can probably only afford one trip...haha and I didn't realize until recently that AM2 is on Father's Day weekend. Chase(AM2) supposedly said the rest of the guests were going to be announced throughout this past week but...it looks like they are going to be announcing one guest each Friday.

At this rate I won't even go if they drag out the musical guest release. They need to be on top of that stuff

ooooh looks like i can make an impression on Hiroshi Nagahama with my big doraemon head lol

also, ill be going to both. see you guys there! ^^

Day 1 for AM2 is a go for me... Heh, I partied too hard earlier this month and forgot to register myself for the fashion show, but my sister wants to check out the Phoenix Wright showing on the 15th, so I'm requesting a day off for it this week... *cross fingers*

I might wanna attend the Maid Cafe too... I'll work my magic and persuade my maid to serve me booze...
