With a Demon race that doesn't even look demonic, toilet portals between worlds, and same-sex engagement, Kyo kara Maoh! is definitely an unusual take on the fantasy genre. Its predominantly bishounen cast and off-the-wall sense of humor won't suit everyone's tastes, but there's surely an audience out there for this sort of man-to-man tomfoolery. If you're tired of epic adventures taking themselves way too seriously and need a good laugh, then give Kyo kara Maoh! a try.
To me, the weekend served as a strong reminder of how the priorities of anime fandom have shifted - in terms of what fans spend money on, what they line up to see, and what they consider to be the most important part of a convention to be. Going forward, it is likely that FanimeCon will continue to have the occasional problems that every fan-run organization does, but the fans will still come out to enjoy the convention they love, whether they've been attending for just a few years or were there when the con was nothing more than a giant meeting between fans.
