And if you have tense legs and achy feet make sure to have one of those portable folding chairs. They make really small ones that can fit in a bag or just have a sling on them. When I was in queue I really wished I had one.

I am. Though it's best to remember that you need to buy tickets early so that they don't run out before you're able to get admissions.

Anyone know how the wristband system works? I've got fear from other reservation systems that have sold out almost immediately when they open, but I can't imagine they'd want to limit the amount of people getting in so it shouldn't be a limited supply...

I'd go if it were in the winter, but going in the summer is just too much for me.
Have you done any budgeting? How much have you planned just for the trip alone? Would love to get an idea on the cost, if you don't mind.

>>2928I'm not traveling on a strict budget. You can consider an above average salaried person who's traveling alone to budget something like... 6,600 USD for 14 days
A direct plane ticket costs around 2000 and if you want to stay at good hotels for 14 days that's around another 2000+. The cheapest thing is trains. You don't need a rental unless you really go off the beaten path.

>>2929Wow that's lame, here in Germany I see people take the train in cosplay, nevermind public transport to the con.

>>2930Ah, I got it wrong with the hotels because i'm staying in a 4 star in tokyo which contributes to basically all that cost. Overall the flight is that much, but hotels probably 800 for normal.
