What an awesome 7 hours I had. I wnt there after fashioning a pair of handmade Chii ears from Chobits, and passed myself off as a Male Persocon.
I was surprised as to how many people knew what I was trying to be - a lot came to me and said "Chii!" They thought I was so cute. :)
The unfortunate thing about the convention this year is that they were scouting out any Hong-Kong copies, so there were no cheap CDs, posters, or anything. Everything was mucho-money. I decided not to spend the full $300 I took out of my account (!) and purchased a Belldandy Figure (it's beautiful, I'll try to find an image of it later), a pair of paper Belldandy posters (I'll have to laminate these or something or else they'll get damaged), and a small Chii figurine - the only Chii-related item I could find at the con aside from Chobits manga!
I was trying to find the poster that Greg Dean has on his wall. No, not the Iria poster, the Belldandy one. sigh Look at the size of the posters below the Belldandy poster - if you know what a regular-size anime poster looks like then you know the Belldandy is frickin' huge.
I'm quasi-tired right now, and I have to work at U8TV tomorrow (bright and early at 8 o'clock YUCK), so I'm heading off to bed. I really wish I could have come back to the con for the full 3 days this year... sigh I'll make sure to do that next year.
And I'll do a more elaborate costume next year. I really enjoy Cosplay - I should do it more.
