Wow you guys got the word up here fast! But yes, glad to see people are already getting excited! Otakon should have a good year this year!

There's also going to be a Funimation sponsored Mock UN as there was last year! (I or one of the others involved will probably make a separate post about that somewhere down the line!) The MUN while Funi sponsored is fan run and we really hope to see a bunch of you guys there! Should be a good time!

Ah! I'd trample an orphan to attend this!

[sppandaaa.livejournal.com]

Oh man, I forget how fast you guys on the comm can be.

But very excited to be doing Hetalias once again at Otakon. As Ginny said above we'll be doing a MUN, and a gathering again this year, and possibly other things as well. Not completely sure on that tidbit yet. So yeah be sure to swing by all the events. We should be having some cool new swag to be giving out as well at the booth.

See you all there~ <3 <3 <3

[kittenmia100.livejournal.com]

Are you a participant in the MUN and all the following Hetalia events, too? * V*

[sppandaaa.livejournal.com]

I'll be in the MUN as China. I'm not sure what other events I'll be helping out with just yet though.

Ahhh...I was so hoping for this! Part of me really wants to say that I hope someone manages to record a clip or two, but that would be very wrong of me....

[hetaliafaerie.livejournal.com]

Why must I live in America's belly instead of his head? /sob

Someone, please bring your video camera and record this. All of it. And stick it on YouTube.

To go to the panel or not to go to the panel, that is the question...

[zacloud.livejournal.com]

Oooooh, unless something else VERY big comes up, I'm totally gonna be there! :D

Been driving/riding 6 hours each way, each year, for 12 years for Otakon (though there was that time it was 11 hours on a Greyhound bus... NEVER again! @_@). Always worth the trip. There's always a lotta awesome stuff.
