I didn't know that Otakumex was reincarnated, to be run this weekend (September 25). The con last year was supposed to be a one-off, set up by a travelling group of professional promoters. The domain otakumex.com was backed up by a real website last year, but now it redirects to Ning. I suspect that some locals decided to carry on, and probably paid off the original group to get the domain redirect.
I'm not going, it does not seem anywhere as cool as last year. The program is heavily dominated by one peddler of the gay smut (not that there's anything wrong with that) and some other things (ditto), and it does not sound very interesting. Also, I have a lot of homework to catch upon.
