I really enjoyed my time at AnimeNEXT! Maybe you spotted me and didn't know it? I'll first put up a brief summary of what I did, and then come the photos. There were fantastic cosplayers this year!
Friday:
-Dressed up as Ukyo from Ranma ½ for a few hours, but then the shoes killed me, so I switched to a Minnie Mouse shirt and jeans later one.
-Went to the Hetalia World Summit! Very funny.
-Saw Uncle Yo, I love that man.
-Got sick, went to bed early. But before I did, I saw some things in the Dealer's room that gave me an idea for the next day...
Saturday:
-Going to the dealer's room as fast as I can to buy the items - a Fruits Basket school uniform and a black wig. I was Saki Hanajima! I even traveled around with a Fruits Basket group.
-Saw some of the Dating Game, 'cause my friend Sid was in it.
-Passed some time reading in the manga library.
-Saw the masquerade. Friends of mine won second place!
Sunday:
-Participated in Cosplay chess, as Ukyo once again! I defeated the King of Cosmos, but was taken down by Yoko.
-Redressed in normal wear, and bought some things. A Mickey Mouse T-shirt, Amy Rose hat that I wore for the rest of the day, and a France (hetalia)Plushie.
-Saw Anime Jeopardy. Kinda dull, but good fun.
-Went to the Pokemon Party! Got a Pikachu that knows Surf, and lots of shiny Eevee! Poke-walkers everywhere!

Hard to tell cuz... I kinda cut his head off, but this is LittleKuriboh! I was at the elevators, and I heard him talking behind me. I somewhat recognized the voice, and took a look at his badge.
