Anime North recap... Part 2 (...of 3!)
Okay, so I finally got off my lazy ass to update part 2. XD XD XD
Saturday morning, I got up, dressed as a lolita maid, and stalked over to Double Tree to grab a Haruko Momoi concert ticket and a masquerade ticket. On my way there, I saw the cutest Hunny cosplay EVER:
After grabbing tickets, I discovered the manga library, much to my delight~ I read manga until 12 PM; when Momoi's concert started. At Haruko Momoi's concert, I ran into Hime-chan and Kaiya-chan! :O Somehow, I hadn't expected seeing them, so it was a surprise. Ufu~ We got glowsticks. As in more than one. A lot of people only got one, but we stole(...) a few... Well, more like, we hid the ones we had and asked for more. *laughs* XD XD XD <-we are immature! Yes we are!
Funny thing is, before the concert, I didn't even know who Haruko Momoi was... I'd never even heard of her. Though the concert didn't turn me into her fan, I admire her hardwork; bouncing around, singing, dancing and forcing a cute, high-pitched girly voice for two hours straight must've been sooo freaking tiring. O_o;;;; Though us crazy Asians can sing karaoke for six hours without losing our voices, we never had to dance and bounce across the stage like she did... ^^;;;;;; Kudos to Momoi. I saw her at our hotel(Radisson); she looked really tired. >~< And homg, I didn't know that she sung the Poptan opening theme. o_o And WTF, she's 30?!?! Totally didn't see that coming... *Kuro turns to stone and sand pours out of mouth*
During the concert, I was tired and felt slightly sick. Seeing Momoi bounce around nonstop, I was like, "How the hell does she do it?!". But then I saw that Hime had at least half at much energy as she did; Hime didn't sit much, jumping up and down and waving her glowstick like the majority of the audience... Halfway through the concert, I ended up sitting down. But for the final song, Kaiya poked at my boobs(...) until I stood up. XP
So after the concert, I walked around Doubletree for the hell of it. I didn't encounter any perverts that day, 'cause there were apparently A LOT of girls dressed in lolita outfits running around. It's like... "Whoa, what the hell happened?! Everybody suddenly decided to wear lolita outfits!" o.o;; Not that I was complaining; some girls were cute. <-hey.
Of all people, Kaiya flipped my skirt. *laughs* Lolita maid outfit was fun to wear, the shoes were horrible to wear, though; the left one made my heel bleed. :\
Anyway, cosplay photo spam, here I come! XD XD XD
Near the Momoi concert area, I saw this Code Geass (art book version) group:
(C.C., Lelouch Lamperouge, Kururugi Suzaku, Euphemia Li Britannia)
(Charles Di Britannia, Nunnally Lamperouge)
A few Bleach cosplayers (Hueco Mundo Orihime, Yoruichi, Kenpachi, Ikkaku):
Some time in the afternoon, I saw Edo-kun with a few other fellow Trinity Blood cosplayers:
Okay, so when I saw this guy, I thought I was mistaken... But as I stared at his back, I realized that it WAS him... PEDOBEAR!!!!!
...I hailed him down and took a pic of him.
Wow, seriously... Kudos to this guy. He's got guts. O_O;;;;;;
Down the hallway of Double Tree, I also saw a Hinoto Hime cosplayer, from X/1999:
I also saw a Shino cosplayer, with huuuge-ass toy bugs stuck on his face and hands(which is why I took his photo):
At some point, I also saw Venus and co, cosplaying as charas from Sengoku Basara:
Homg you guys are so hot~ *nosebleeds* I hope you guys don't mind that I took both pics from Venus~ VvvVVVVVVvvVV
Near the Haruko Momoi concert area, I saw these two Zelda cosplayers, too:
They're sooo pretty. *___* Girls are awesome after all~ v
Moar fancy costumed cosplayers:
I envy people's sewing skills, man... =.=;;
The masquerade was boring; nothing much to see... The only entry that I thought was actually good, was the Squirtle. Somebody had actually cosplayed a Squirtle, NOT in humanoid form... A stage ninja had to help the cosplayer off the stage because the costume was so difficult to walk in. *laughs* I wish I took a picture!!! I missed the chance~ *cries a bit*
At some point, Bubba-kun, Ami-chan and I met up... I don't remember when, but I took a pic of Bubba-kun, cosplaying as Godot from Phoenix Wright. :)
I also saw other Gyakuten Saiban cosplays:
(Miles Edgeworth)
(Kristoph and Phoenix... As much as I like the lighting, it made Kristoph's face too bright! @.@)
...THERE WAS A KLAVIER!!!!!! But she's so pale~ At least she was pretty~ VvvVV
Ooh! Some time on Saturday, I watched the AMV contest~ Half of the videos were good... But a few of them stood out. *grins*
Here are a couple of my favs that I actually found on youtube:
One Piece MPAA parody
Ouran High School Never Ends
Two other vids that I liked that were not found on youtube were 'Edin' (a Mononoke Hime AMV, made with 'The Howling' by Within Temptation), and 'The Audition' (a various anime, crack AMV; it was maaad funny!).
Throughout the day, I briefly met with a few people; Rayquo-chan, Heika-chan, Haze-Hime, Juudaime(actually, I met her on Friday), Nikufei(we pranced around like crazies, holding hands, in the parking lot), Tiikay-senpai(she roomed with us for Saturday night), Jun-chan(sadly, I only saw her once, in the Japanese karaoke room) and Bunny-chan(we met through Shirohane's group). :D
That evening, I returned to the hotel for a bit of rest~ Ayu brought Hime and Kaiya over, too. Which reminds me... Like Kaiya said, I fail at being a maid. Instead of cleaning, I lazed around on my bed... Instead of giving massages, I got a shoulder massage from Hime-chan. *laughs* I remember this epic moment: Kaiya was sleeping on my bum, and meanwhile, I was trying to get my wristbands off(they were made of tape, so it wouldn't tear). I grabbed a pair of scissors and snipped them off... Kaiya jumped; she thought that I was cutting myself. *dies laughing* Wahahaha...
So later, Ayu, Tiikay and I went drinking with Bubba-kun and co, at Kelsey's. Before we headed out the door, I had a heart-attack moment. I'd lost my keycard to the hotel. *gasp gasp gasp* I panicked my ass off! *laughs* Luckily, Tiikay and Ayu's suggestions were true; apparently, Edo-kun had taken my keycard. XD XD XD
Ah, I must mention... For some reason, all of the guys' cellphones started dying! Edo-kun ran out of minutes, Ari-kun's just died for some reason and Bubba-kun's cell also died... Ayu was mentioned it was like the "Curse of the dead cellphones". O_o;;;; Kinda creepy. Ayu's and mine were the only ones working, by Sunday afternoon; even Ami-chan's cell died. I decided that Edo-kun should keep the keycard that I had, since I had a functioning cellphone and he didn't.
Anyway, Saturday night, I had wings and two cocktails at Kelsey's~ It was really good. ^^ Ayu and Tiikay ordered baby burgers(mini sized burgers)~ I'm not sure if OCAD Ami got tipsy or something, but she said, "Baby burgers are made of babies...".... HAHAHAHAHAHA, that's brilliant, yo. XD XD XD
After the massive amount of eating and drinking, I borrowed Ayu's keycard and went to rape the yaoi section of the manga library from 1:30 AM to 4:30 AM~ During that time, I read lots of yaoi manga! I even read Bokura no Oukoku, volumes 4 and 5. *___* It's suuuch a good series~ I'm so glad that Shiro introduced it. X3 I can't wait to read volume 6!
Unfortunately, our hotel toilet got clogged that night. After my little manga reading spree, late at night, I got back to the hotel, intending to use the washroom... Only to find it clogged... With Ayu's horrible grammar wonderful writing on the note, "DO NOT USE. Toilet is clog." <-HAHAHAHAHAHAHA- *gets smacked by Ayu*
I ended up not using the washroom. :\ <-didn't want to stumble around in the dark of our room, to head back downstairs to borrow Tim Horton's washroom.
Aaaand, I'm sorry; I lied. AN recap has been extended to three parts... XD XD;;;;;; <-rambles too much!
