Cons
There were no visible signs directing attendees to the registration area. Upon entering the Lansing Center, I had no idea where to go. Thankfully, the security from the Lansing Center pointed me in the right direction.

It did not feel like there was much air conditioning flowing through the convention room. I was sweating while standing still during a regular conversation with a vendor. I can only imagine how the cosplayers were feeling.

Do I recommend attending the event?
Yes. I had a fun time with my one day visit to the event.
