Great video.
I agree with the DBZ commentary, but I do like good anime.
Re: Pocky
I can't speak for the US, or even the bulk of Canada, but around here it's VERY easy to come by. They have it in every grocery store I've ever been in, even if it's usually only chocolate and strawberry. That said, I can think of 3 or 4 stores that specialize in Japanese snacks within a half hour by transit from where I'm sitting.

TYLER!! :O Oh my gosh, congrats on being in the video! When I see your sister tomorrow, I'm totally mentioning this. (This is Emily Barner, by the way.)
Aaaand now onto the video. As a frequenter of Kei-Kon, I was both amused and entertained. >_< I can't believe I didn't go this year. I could have chased Graham down a staircase!
edited to add: that guy behind the vendor is wearing a LRLive shirt!

awesome! I'm an anime fan, but I'm very picky about what I watch... I hate DBZ
My friends and I travel all over the states to different cons, next up is Anime Central in Chicago! horray.
I agree with Alja about the crowd being more happy about chasing after Graham and not angry at him. It looked like a bunch of fan girls chasing after Hanson in 1997.
Oh well, it must have been a fun shoot!

Well, if it's that easy to come by in Canada, i'm sure i'll be able to find some nearby. Thanks for the help though, that's one less thing I have to drag back from here.

The people in the last scene was really excited to be in it, but aside from one or two people mugging for the camera, I think everyone was awesome in it!
Also, a very funny exchange:
During shooting, Graham frequently repeated, "guys I'm playing an asshole, I'm not actually an asshole", and upon watching this, my roommate was like "why is Graham acting like me?".
So much secret ROFLing on my part. SO MUCH.
Also I am back, I guess. Hi everyone!

Well, looks like Graham won't have to worry anymore about the hydra in the trousers:

Very funny comics man, I like the randomness
Always speak your mind, those that matter wont mind,
and those that mind, don't matter

Yay, probably my 3rd non-speaking cameo. One of these days, Ill get some words in... Alex can't be the only one who talks.
As for pocky in Canada , I have seen in most supermarkets in Victoria, Vancouver and Toronto. However Ontario has bagged milk witch I cant seem to find here in B.C, or mabey i'm not looking enough.

Great job on the video and the use of audience participation. I love the Pocky-mon scene.
While I enjoy anime, I haven't enjoyed an anime-based convention in a few good years. Every year that I attend one (though consider that I have not been to Kei-con) the majority of the crowds seem to degrade more and more into the obsessive yaoi fangirls. The only convention that I have really found myself to be enjoying is Comic Con International, which is fantastic in every way.

That was pretty brilliant, guys. I'm glad you could make use of my cosplayers - they look forward to LLR every year and they make an *excellent* mob. Thank god you stressed the character concept involved or it would a real sling.
Anyway, your videos help memorialize the con each year so thank you for bringing wonderful LLR humor to our annual experiment-in-volunteering-tormet, Kei-kon.

Oh wow, I should totally be sleeping right now but I couldn't help but log in for a minute to say that was awesome. As someone who's been roped into going to con's before but isn't really that huge into the scene that video played out just like I figured my first con would go in my head.
Big props for getting that group together and I'm jealous over your lack of snow...
