Waking up was not as difficult as we expected, in fact, we got everything packed and ready to go quickly. However, getting down from the hotel room was an adventure due to the busy elevators. Still, we were able to get our bags checked early and we began our last day of Anime Central.

Victoria picked up her pictures from CosClips and we made our way to the dealer hall for some last minute deals. On our way to the dealer hall we ran into the Lupin gathering. Not many people showed up for the gathering, but it was nice to see people showing support for a classic show. After the gathering Jared grabbed two figures from the dealer hall and Victoria picked up a new wig from Arda Wigs. Before we left the hall we got some soft serve ice cream from the hall vendor. With our stomachs happy we made our way back to the Hyatt to await the shuttle back to the airport.

While at the Hyatt we ran into Steven Poon and we talked about the transition from the Spoony Bards to Arc Impulse. He sounded very confident about the adjustment and about their plan to become a concert act rather than a lounge act. We also came across the table where people could fold paper cranes. Jared did not try it out, but Victoria did and sadly her crane would not fly. We wrapped up the day by taking some nice photos on the stairs.

As two o’clock roll around we made our way out of the hotel and into an airport shuttle. It had been a very fun and tiring weekend, but we really did not want to leave. We said our goodbye to Chicago and flew home to California later that day.
