This was our first bigger con and it was so awesome! We got to see all of the voice actors we came here to see, only down side was the wait on the lines. Had lots of fun and can’t wait for the best one!
Drove three hours for a signature to just stand in line for four hours and leave without one the Convention was nice its just i didn’t get my signature
This was my first con to ever go to and quite frankly...I was well underwhelmed. If you needed a Funko Pop then you were in the right place, anything else was honestly generic, but in a Clover Valley not Kirkland kind of way. I feel that it was poorly managed, under produced, and overall just blah. I wish I hadn't purchased the second day ticket....after half of day one there wasn't really anything to see. While I got to hang out with some friends, overall I feel like it was a waste of my weekend. I won some tickets for the big ComiCon in October, fingers crossed it'll be better... fingers crossed since it's put on by the same group.
Riverwalk Anime was a great experience. It was well organized, never felt overcrowded, had great vendors and all the best voice actors! Can’t wait for the next one!
They were not prepared for the large crowd, they were still putting tape on the floor to form lines as we were already in line. No Covid Protocols were in place. The main 2 guys got there Sean Shimmel way more than the Sabat. People were so close to each other in line like not even 12 inches apart. Horrible, I feel that they were unprofessional knowing that people paid and some had VIP still had to wait HOURS IN LINE for autographs we never ended up receiving because we left once the Voice Actors went on a 3 HOUR BREAK!!!
Had an amazing turnout for a first year convention! I thought it was fun, and had such a great selection of voice actors there. I would say, if you’re going to have a lot of voice actors like that, because of how long the lines were, maybe make it 3 days instead? And include more panels. Some ppl were waiting literally 3hours in some lines. Just a thought, but other than that it was great!
Plenty of booths, but the lines were extremely long for some of the voice actors. My friend was in line all day for 1 voice actor and didn’t get to enjoy the rest of the voice actors or booths.
MY SON WAS ALL ABOUT MEETING SEAN SCHEMMEL AND CHRISTOPHER SABAT. WAS IT WORTH THE WAIT? SURE. IT MADE HIM HAPPY AND WE HAD OUR STRATEGY GOING TAKING TURNS WAITING IN LINE! NEXT TIME, VIP PASSES. ITS UNFORTUNATE THOUGH THAT IS WHAT IT TAKES.... IT CAN NOT JUST BE EVERYONE THE SAME. THAT IS WHAT TOOK THE LONGEST, ALLOWING VIP TO GO FIRST. BEING HONEST, MR. SABAT HAS A GREAT PERSONALITY. HE WAS ATTENTIVE AND CARING. THERE WAS A LOT OF COOL STUFF BEING SOLD ALSO BY SOME AWESOME VENDORS. PRICES WERE DECENT. THE ONE THING MISSING WAS A SELECTION OF FOOD OF COURSE! DID NOT LIKE PAYING FIVE BUCKS FOR A REGULAR SIZED COKE.
I was there for Saturday and San Antonio is a 3 hour drive for me. When i first bought tickets, VIP and 2 day passes were sold out which bummed me out and because of how quickly the VIPs were sold out, there were many that got head of the line privileges which made the lines longer, despite how long the regular line was. One lady had waited in line since the convention opened at 10am, so eventually, the volunteers had to start capping the lines and the voice actors ended up staying extra late. The convention started at 10am and ended at 7pm.. I was there til 8:30pm waiting for Chris Sabat, (I got in line at 1:30) and I was lucky enough to be the last in line, other than the volunteers who couldn't be in line due to having to give their time. All of the voice actors were kind and patient. I didn't really get to walk around the dealers room due to the lines. I also saw Colleen Clickenbeard (2½ hour wait) and tbe others in the regular line were kind enough to let me slide out of Colleen's line to get in a shorter line, and Sonny Reil (15 minute wait). Overall, I enjoyed myself especially when meeting them, just the lines and VIP balance with them just walking up and getting immediate access vs those who had been in line for more than an hour needs to be readjusted.
Had a great time! Definitely room for improvement but for it being the first year for this it was great! Only complaint I have was from one of the people working the lines. She was griping at people for even having a toe or heal on the lines while waiting to get a signature in an already sardine crowded line. I know it had been a long day for everyone but she was griping at little girls and boys for being 5 Inches outside the dedicated lines to stand in.
