In its third year, Kami-Con again nearly doubled its attendance, with 1847 pre-registered and probably 1000 or more who registered at the gates.
Using PixelCon as a jumping point, I came decked out in Persona 3 protagonist cosplay for my first Kami-Con--which you will get to see in the final con video. My friend Darmani joined me with a Junpei Iori cosplay (albeit briefly).
Anyway, this is the opening ceremony, where the guests are introduced and the "plot" of the convention begins.
An evil anime licensing company threatens to censor the convention and get Kami-Con cancelled for good. It's up to the congoers to help congirl Kosho reach a power level of OVER 8999!!!!! and save the con.
(My kudos to the staff members who were in the opening skit. Fantastic job all considered.)
Hopefully, I can do well in the upcoming Pokémon Tournament and win a lot of experience point stickers!
* I applied volume leveling to this video so that the audience's screams are not as deafening and the speaker's voices are a bit more audible. Rest assured it was MUCH louder in person.*
Some links to videos shown during the Opening Ceremony, in case you want to watch them without thousands of overenthusiastic anime fans screaming and laughing:

I doubt this is the only video of the opening ceremony on YouTube, but if I have it, may as well post it.
Oh yeah, and it SHOULD be HD...YouTube doesn't seem to recognize it as such. :\
Awesome, I didn't see this last time I searched for Kami-Con videos. 8888888
