Bland Glossary
🕑 Added 2018-07-15 18:21:45 +0000 UTCThe various titles and franchises that fandoms revolve around are what makes anime convention culture. AnimeCon Harem is set in an alternate universe where the brand-names fans may know have all been replaced with bland-names. Anime fans should be able to tell what is really being referred to, while non-fans should still be able to enjoy the story without having to bone up on anime trivia. Also avoids reader bias, and pesky things like copyright.
If you feel an important piece of fan culture should be represented in the story, offer up a bland name to represent it! In current order of appearance:

Love the Jackies! It's also a thinly-veiled way for me to describe my particular cosplay experiences, as for my first five years or so hitting cons I was known for being that random Stormtrooper at an anime convention. Having a costume that can render you anonymous is a whole different experience, haha.

I had a hunch about the skullmasks. I was pretty surprised to see Ratman referenced as I've always though it wasn't that well known.
