Comic Fiesta 2010

So. I went to Comic Fiesta for both day, and stayed for the whole day.

It was very tiring - I spend practically the whole day standing - and I was very very nervous on going to the event (on both day I actually had 'take it easy' chanting in my head on and on)...

But lemme tell you, that it was FUCKING AWESOME.

Picture very related

Photo spamming ensues below:

NOTE: I am in no way responsible for anyone being put off by some of the cosplayer - watch it easy!


Day 1

I decided to walk around a bit, to get myself in the mood (and also to ease that uneasy feeling in my stomach - it's nervousness, not diarrhea).

After some time spent looking around, I started off my cosplayers picture taking with a Touhou character:

As it turns out, there was an abundance of Touhou cosplayers on that day:

Ayayayayaya

See that shimenawa? I was told that the Kanako cosplayer was not really in the mood to cosplay her. Alas...

Man, the costume is pretty good

When I was going to take a picture of Reimu, I was greeted by a girl from one of our local forum. I was rather surprised that someone online knew me IRL.

Reimu with glasses: moe?

After going on a cosplayers picture taking spree, I went inside and take it easy by looking at some of them Touhou figures in the hall:

Cpt.Awesome should be familiar with this one...

WARNING: crossplayer alert

HELP ME, EIRINNNNNN

Sakuya and his(?) ojou-sama, Remilia

I actually knew that this guy was going to cosplay as Sakuya male version, but I didn't expect it to turn out so well. No pads joke for you

Mokouuuuu

Marisa, Rinnosuke, Reimu... alternate costume?

The timepiece was a nice touch by the way

Nyaa~

Yeah, I'm putting mostly Touhou cosplay pic in here, 'cause I can.

For the rest of Day 1 pic, check out the album at my Fagbook page.



Day 2

The nervousness return, with vengeance - it felt as if I could pass out anytime. Yup, that's how nervous I was.

I let some time pass to ease the nervousness a bit, and went on for picture taking.

As with Day 1, I started off with a Touhou cosplayer:

EDIT: Interestingly, this was also the same cosplayer that did Satori on Day 1... so basically, I started both day of picture taking with her.

At this point, while I was looking at the Touhou cosplayers, something happened, which goes on pretty much like this:

Guy: "Eirin, Eirin; tasukete Eirinnnn"
Me: turn around; nearly said "oppai oppai"
Guy: "I think I know you"
Me: "You that guy, [his name here], right?"

And pretty much the rest of the day was spend chatting with the guy, on anime and Touhou. It was a great experience, I didn't think I had this kind of talk IRL before. We talked a bit on socializing - he's rather good with people - and found out that he was rather like what I am now in the past. Take it easy, he said (well, more or less something along that line).

Talked with a few other people, taking picture in between:

Touhou characters (and fellow Touhou fans)

Tewi - ain't she just :3

Like so

...yeap, that's me, that one Touhou fan. I planned to only take her picture, but didn't expect that she'd want to take a picture with me instead.

She's the same girl that was with Reimu on Day 1 btw.

Bet you saw this coming

Patchy's the only girl cosplayer in this pic

Speaking of which...

If you think those crossplayers are gross, be thankful that I haven't shown that one Azunyan crossplayer.

...but well, if you insist, it's there in my Facebook page.

Uhh I don't think it's nuclear powered

Some of my loot from the event: Touhou goods, what else!

Yeah, I got the poster of the first Touhou group picture up there, in glorious A2 size.

You can find Day 2 pics at my Fagbook page.

Overall, it was a good 2 days spend. The amount of crowds were enormous, and the avenue was rather small for the crowd, but least I did a bit of mingling - and with Touhou fans to boot - so it's all good.

Hoping that I'll make it to other cons in the future. Till then, take it easy everyone!
