OTAKON 2007 ONE: (the first of four videos)
Thursday, July 19 Registration Day through Friday's first chaos beginning.
For anime and manga fans, this is the event they have eagerly awaited all year since the prior year's convention ended. During that year they create their costumes and dress their dolls, gather friends and make new ones. Very few cell phones come out, but the cameras do because this is a time of Make-Believe where every female is beautiful, strong and courageous, and every male is a sweeping, flying hero. This is the time where the ordinary becomes extraordinary, when the meek trumpet and sing and dance.
It does not matter the age of the damsels or gents because at Otakon, time stands still and a Universe explodes into new birth!
Otakon Anime Convention is one of the largest of its kind in the United States. Baltimore becomes a full weekend of Magick for both the thousands (about 20 thousand to 24 thousand attend annually) of fans, tourists and citizens of the city. It's also an anticipated event for numerous hotels, parking facilities, restaurants etc. in the area.
