Otafest 2007 is fast approaching
As always, the May long weekend will see the University play host to hundreds of… people dressed like anime characters? Otafest 2007 takes place on May 19 and 20, in Macewan Hall and the Science Theatres at the University of Calgary.
Though the schedule hasn’t been posted yet, there are some special events listed that I would like to attend this year, depending on the timing. It’s likely that I’ll pick one of the two days based on the schedule, which means I’ll miss some things, but that’s the way it goes. I find it tough to devote two whole days to Otafest, but I also find it hard to skip entirely.
Hopefully this year there won’t be as many schedule conflicts as there were last year. In 2006, it seemed like every time something interesting was scheduled, there are about 3 other interesting things scheduled as well. It’s the nature of the beast with any convention / festival, I guess.
Have no fear, though; I’m not madly stitching the last few sequins onto my costume. Really, I’m not.
