>>3309443I go to 3-4 cons a year and only ever made one actual friend from bonding over Touken Ranbu. I have a pretty big group of friends in the con scene but I can never get anyone into it because of the hurdle of language and history knowledge. When I see tkrb cosplayers I always ask for their picture but I've never really been able to strike up a convo with them, the one friend I made talked to me because of my itabag.
One of the best interactions so far
>see Tsuru cosplayer>ask for pic and tell them I was /surprised/ to see them>he smiles really wide and goes "ayyy"One of the only dudes I've seen to cosplay it too, it was nice.
And one of the worst interactions
>see artist with a Jiji print>"oh, you like Touken Ranbu too?">"oh, no, I just like Mikazuki's design! I don't know anything about the game or anything.">"o-oh ok."
