Hey, cool! I'm going to Anime Expo, too. XD

[lockonkopitar11]

Really? Awesome! Are you going to cosplay?

[x_eternal_sky]

Sure am. I'm bringing quite a few costumes. XD I'll be going as KH2 Kairi, Princess Kairi (may or may not since this costume is HUGE), Sheryl Nome from Macross Frontier, Luka Megurine, and Luka Megurine (electronic mermaid PV). ...I just need photoshoots. XD

How 'bout you? Are you going to cosplay? :3

[lockonkopitar11]

OMG. That's AWESOME!! I hope to see you at AX! AS for me, I'll be Ranka (Macross Frontier - I'll definitely be at the Macross Frontier gathering), Canada (Hetalia Axis Powers), C.C. (Code Geass) - schoolgirl edition, Allelujah Haptism (Gundam 00 Second Season), Ritsu (K-On!) and an Anaheim Ducks Voc@loid (original creation). That's awesome that you're going to be Luka! I do hope that there's going to be a Voc@loid gathering (pretty sure there will be), but I think it's funny that no one's gonna know who I am. XD

[x_eternal_sky]

Awesome!! None of my friends are cosplaying from Macross F this year. xD Which Ranka are you going as? I'll be going as Star Date ep. 5 Sheryl and her outfit from the concert poster. Yay, Vocaloid! X3 There's going to be a Vocaloid gathering on Day 1 at 3PM outside of the West Hall. I might drop in for it so long as it doesn't interfere with anything else at the time. Lol

I'm actually excited for this year's AX since Yuu Asakawa (Luka's voice sampler) is gonna be there. :3 I don't think anyone's going to recognize my Electronic Mermaid variant of Luka, either so you're not alone. XD I'll be the first to cosplay from it which should be interesting. lol

[lockonkopitar11]

Sweet!! Can't wait to see your Sheryl! I'm going as sundress Ranka (the yellow and light blue dress) version. ORLY? That's soo cool that there's going to be a Voc@loid gathering on Day 1 - although I was planning on cosplaying as Canada (Hetalia) since it's Canada Day and all. XD I might stop by as well as DuckPoid.

Yeah, I saw that re: Yuu Asakawa. Freakin' awesome. I have no idea who Sophia is, so I'll reserve fangirling until the remainder of the GoHs are announced (although if May'N or Nakajimi Megumi are ever announced, I'll REALLY blow a fuse). Electronic Mermaid cosplay sounds freakin' awesome!

I now have another dream cosplay: Lightning from FFXIII!! XD XD Dream cosplay, dream cosplay...

[x_eternal_sky]

Cool! :3 I hope this Vocaloid gathering is fun. The last one I went to at my local con was pretty lame and scary. XD;; My friend wants me to cosplay from Hetalia with her group, but there's none I can pull off. XDDD

I have no idea who Sophia is, either. I was like, "Wait... what? Who?" and I've heard of every other musical guest in the past 5 years. x__x;; If May'n or Nakajima were announced, I'd probably go nuts. XD If I stop being lazy, I should have Electronic Mermaid done this weekend. X3

Awesome! XD My friend wants to do Lightning, but is still debating on it because of her hair. I'd have to make the wig using the same method I did for Sheryl. XD;; I have 2 dream cosplays now, but one is going to have to wait until next year. Stella from vs 13 and then Ashe's wedding gown from 12. Ashe is gonna kill me. >>;

[lockonkopitar11]

Scary? O______O How so? Ohhhh, boy, now I'm a tad worried... But then again, no one will know who I am, so they probably won't bother with me. XD

LOL re: Sophia. Sammmme here. I'd definitely have to splurge on teh $30 ticket for May'N or Nakajima for sure. Oooooh, gonna post pics of your Electronic Mermaid? I have some Duckpoid shots I've already posted in earlier entries...

Aaaaaaactually, upon further review (haha, I'm such a sports nut), I might have to decline on Lightning. Her cosplay is crazy hard for a noobie such as myself (I'm just barely learning how to thread my sewing machine, LOL). Snow is definitely more up my alley (plus I already have a wig for him). So.... we'll see. I'll still give Lightning a shot, but I dunno.... Ashe's wedding gown from 12 sounds crazy hard (I'm only just barely starting 12, LMAO and I don't remember characters names, other than Vaan and Penelo, LOL). Good luck with those!! :3

[x_eternal_sky]

XD The last Vocaloid gathering I went to was at a local Las Vegas con. I went as Cendrillon Miku and a friend I made at the con went as Gakupo. We got pounced on by a few rabid fangirls. x__X BUT the con goers in my state are nucking futs. There's nothing like that at AX and when there were, staff was right there to ban them without hesitation. >D Needless to say, I'm never wearing anything nice there again and saving the nice stuff for Cali cons since the people there know how to behave. xD

I would too if they came. XD Yup, I might have some progress shots uploaded this week (if I stop being lazy). Cool! I'll have to look at your Duckpoid shots once I get home. :3

We all have to start somewhere. LOL Snow is cool and his costume looks somewhat simplistic. I love Ashe although I haven't finished 12 yet. It gets on my nerves at so many points. XD Thanks, I wish you luck, too!

[lockonkopitar11]

Ahhhhhhh, I see. I've only been to Anime Vegas twice, but never in cosplay. And yes, AX staff are notorious for keeping a tight leash on things. But in cases like that, it's a good thing.

I really do want to get FFXIII, so I don't feel stupid when people ask about certain parts in the game and I say, "Uh... IDK?" LOL. My friend is thinking of cosplaying as "Lightning," so we might really have something going here! So exciting! And yeah, 12 does get really irritating - although the fact that I'm spending 90% of the game wandering into places I'm not supposed to definitely isn't helping... XD
