OH THE MEMORIES! 🙌

[@ConventionReviews]

Seriously though! Being back in the Hyatt was really stepping down memory lane for us.

[@vinzwriter2.010]

@@ConventionReviews omg I still remember binge watching while eating my dollers store lunch at a dorm, good stuff!

[@JustinPinedaMedia]

Yes! You said my last name correctly! Thanks for stopping by my panel! I'm hoping to do this again at Anime Magic! in August!

[@ConventionReviews]

For sure! You are only doing the panel at Chicago cons?

[@BigBlobb-ff7hk]

Ah man I miss ACEN! My first one was in 2003! Crazy to think that was 20 years ago! Best memories ever! I miss walking around the DESCC! I haven't been since 2014! Thanks for reminding me of the good ol days!

[@ChopCityEnt]

Nice video edits are so smooth love it ❤

[@carlie5967]

I was at acen this year! So glad u had fun and wish I could’ve met u!

[@ConventionReviews]

Maybe next time hahaha

[@JRHawker12]

KZbin algorithm really provided today. Thanks for providing amazing content.

[@ConventionReviews]

Oohh thank you so much for watching! I really appreciate it

[@deargotti2615]

6 years ago I was sophomore in high school! (I'm so sorry) Wished I knew this when I was in Chicago!

[@Not_Your_Average_Nerd]

OH DAMN WHAT AND I MISSED YOU!?!

[@ConventionReviews]

Shoooooottttttt, next time!

[@jesuscerrosakachuy2958]

I pass by the hyatt once when i went to the concert

[@Mitchy.]

Nice to see you back! You should definitely hit up Fan Expo Chicago in July! I think It's actually held in the same building as Acen was this year.

[@ConventionReviews]

Thank you so much! Actually our next con is Matsuricon! But maybe we can check it out another year.

[@DaniASMRtist]

​@Convention Reviews oooh ill be at matsuricon too!! this will be my 5th year going to it its always a fun time!

[@carlosokelly4937]

The CTA station is the best parking. Cheapest and just past the convention center

[@ChopCityEnt]

Hope i see you next year and can make it in the video

[@carlosb.9032]

I swear cons are always great after a good 1-2 year hiatus. I was a bit burnt out on them back in 2019-ish. Took a couple covid years off to focus on graduating college and the con magic is back in my eyes, and i can actually afford a lot more things now

[@ConventionReviews]

Hahaha right! Taking a break is something I would recommend to everyone

[@texturecosplay]

I missed it 🥺😫 but ill be in Anime Magic 💖✨⭐️

[@ConventionReviews]

Dannnggg, hope Anime Magic is good!

[@chikahoshi]

I’ve always wanted to attend Acen. Maybe one day. :) On a side note, do you collect con badges, and if so, would you ever be willing to do a video on it? Just curious. :)

[@ConventionReviews]

I do and I actually do have something planned with them that involves videos hahaha

[@chikahoshi]

@@ConventionReviews Sweet! Looking forward to it then! :)

[@RubyMVmistress]

We'll have to go eventually. We just went to our local anime con called Naka-con. It was always fun, but nothing beats traveling and being new places. The hotel always confuses because it looks a similar layout to Dragon con in Atlanta. With the double wide steps and dual escalators. and the roundabout.

[@ConventionReviews]

Haha it’s way smaller than Dragoncon! Also I am very very highly considering Naka-con for next year! Never been before

[@Perseid]

I also haven't been to ACen in years, partly because of the crowd and lines that just got completely out of hand. Has that gotten any better since you were there or is it worse still?

[@rae857]

Are you planning on going to Anime Midwest this year?

[@ConventionReviews]

We no longer support Anime Midwest

[@rae857]

Understandable. Happy to see the new con videos 💙💙

[@Psykitty96]

Are you gonna go to Ohayocon next year?

[@ConventionReviews]

That’s gonna have to be a big fat maybe. I would absolutely love to if I can make it work logistically

[@Psykitty96]

I totally get it

[@elliespohr]

He shoulda had the mongolian beef bao buns instead of the nasty burgers.

[@ConventionReviews]

Shoot, you're right tho

[@cholomackdaddy]

We did day zero this year. There was a lot of people there on day zero. Pretty cool.

[@ConventionReviews]

Acen should be a 4 day con at this point.
