(Winter) Comiket 79

[binky_boy]

So Comiket is completely different from American cons, I can't speak for any other cons in Japan but I assume they'd be pretty close but with different focuses. Comiket is the Comic Market so it's all about doujin and novels. The con is three days (10a-4p), each with a different genre of doujin being sold. Day 1 is a lot of shojo stuff so doujin

.....*speechless with amazement* *w*
...*tries to get over her speechlessness* I-.. It sounds so awesome~~! I mean +510,000 peopleOwO wow~~~~ And I'm very surprised that lots of people there buy their cosplay(even though I too have bought my cosplays=w=''(I have up to 4 that I bought(1 from Hetalia, 3 from Prince of Tennis).... I don't have the skills to sew>_<) The doujinshis look so cute and awesome, Byakuran/Mukuro>w< OMG Ken/Chrome so kawaii~, Russia/Prussia>w< YuGiOh!!X3 They all look so awesome~! The cosplay pics look soo amaziii~ng>w<

I was wondering, were there any Prince of Tennis cosplayers there and have you seen any doujin of it too there? Because Prince of Tennis is my #1 obsession, even though I don't talk about it ,its because nobody seems to be in it anymore;w; *feels lonely* (even though the series is still going on, with other stuff like musicals, a Chinese live-action series, character cds, etc)

I'm sorry that I'm rambling about PoT here. I lo~ve<3 that series for the longest time than any others(like Hetalia,

I don't remember if there were any PoT cosplayers, but yeah there was tons of stuff for it everywhere. Merchandise in Animate and other stores, it're pretty popular over there. I remember seeing stuff for it and thinking you'd like it haha.

And yeah it was on the day 2 list, I wasn't looking for it but I'm sure it had at least 2-3 rows at Comiket.

It's on my to read list, but that's a very long list. X3

There's like about over 50 male characters in PoT, and another cosplays for PoT would be school uniform, there's like 9 middle schools that have been shown their uniforms(so far I can remember) and clothing they wore in like cards/posters/cd covers/etc. So it would probably be not easy to find a PoT cosplayer if you not a PoT freak(like me) hehe~ I'm glad that seeing PoT merchandise reminded you of me^///^ Also 2-3 rows, how big is that exactly at comiket

I'm going back to the Mandrake store on Monday, I'll be hard pressed to find any PrussiaRussia that you DON'T already have, but I can look for you if you want. Or I can look for more KakaIru for Erin. Does she have an account here? I want to troll her too.

I should do this too. But-Crap! Most of my doujin are with you. You should take pictures of them and send them to me XDDDD lol. Mmmm, I really want the "love is just like standing on ice" one. Its gorgeous, I don't think I read it closely enough while you were here.

O.M.G. Leslie. I GUESS YOU DON'T WANT THAT ARM. FFFFFFFFFFFFF I seriously want to steal someone's Russia outfit just so I can be a creeper on YOU for once (not going to go through the effort of making it)

[binky_boy]

YES LOOK. I also have this one, just didn't get a picture. Erin does have an eljay but she doesn't use it anymore.

Sure I'll take pictures of them, hngggggggg I love that one so much.

Ahaha NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooo! ps. Guess what I'm taking RusPru pictures with my Russia this weekend. X3 I am a happy panda~~

I used to only shop at Mandarake for doujin. I should have mentioned it to you. There is one in Shibuya as well. Once in awhile they have new pieces, but mostly I went to Tora no Ana for that one.

Still, Comiket sounds pretty intense. I'll have to go sometime just to experience it. And I also laughed when I thought of the Japanese girls flipping out over you two. I can totally imagine this since foreign cosplayers are rather in the minority. :)

please...
