Only my friend and cousin came along with me, Sister was Working, Nikki was out of money. But I have all of the pics up on a site! Woohoo!

Those of you reading my livejournal got a full account (basically, personal details changed to match my livejournal, meaning, set back two years)

It was a VERY fun con. I hope to go to Kaze con in Chicago coming up soon!

Anime.

In Iowa.

Who'da thunkit.

A Kansas City Shuffle is when everybody looks right, you go left.

It's not something people hear about.

Like faye isnt one of the harder anime females to pull off properly.

The Hellsing and Trigun costumes are making me drool.

Pierrot Le Fou from Cowboy Bebop maybe? Tux + "gun loaded" cane.

Btw, looked like a lot of fun there.

I'd hope that's not supposed to be Pierrot Le Fou.

Because it's horrible.

I think it actually is.

I feel uncomfortable dogging on people for their costumes when I myself don't dress.

When I'm in costume though, everyone is fair game imo.

Alucard from Hellsing is so overdone at cons this year, its not even funny. He's replaced Vash's 2 year run as the most overdone.

I was there too. I was the annoying Excel cosplayer. You might've seen me around.

By the way, I've heard bad things about Kazecon... No organization, guy in charge is a jerk... Probably end up going anyhow just because it's so close. Anime Reactor might be good... *shrugs*

Yah, I saw a lot of things going on. I didn't see Soujiro fighting everyone, though. Methinks I remember seeing someone in a "Got Otaku" t-shirt at some point on Saturday..

I signed the Hanziman guy with the chinese characters for "shirt," on account of he didn't have one. Someone took me and my friends picture with him and that awesome Link cosplayer. T'was lots of fun.

This is actually only my second con, but already I'm hooked. The attention you get from being in costume is so nice.

I see announcements for cons every so often, and I've been tempted to go many times, if for nothing else than to see what one is like. Then I see pictures of the people attending...This is probably why I haven't attended one yet.

Why not? If you like anime, you'll be among people that share the same intrests, and, in all the cons I've been to, I have yet to meet an unkind person.

That Link costume is actually VERY well done.
I was in the Virgin Islands once. I met a girl, we ate lobster, drank piña coladas. At sunset, we made love like sea otters. That was a pretty good day. Why couldn't I get that day over, and over?

Yeah, the sword was very good, we were asking what it was made of, he was like, "The blade is wood...but the grip is made FROM THE SOULS OF MY ENEMIES!!!"

You should've seen the Keyblade that Sora has up close, Holy FUCK it was really, really intricate O_O

Man, that fine girl with her boobs hanging everywhere and all you guys at the con talked about was another guy's "sword".

Is there something Nikki and the rest of us don't know? Been hanging out with Kegwen lately?

That's not ALL we talked about, no, but the sword was well done.

Chicks hanging all over is nothing new at cons, hell, you should've seen a Chun-Li we had...jesus fuck.

You'll have to take me to the next one.

But then you'll start talking about how intricate your sword is with one of the chicks and I'd be all like, "Hey, baby, wanna go back to the hotel and see my sword?" and just kill it.
