TGS Cosplay Part 2-FUU!!!!

Oct 09, 2009 16:03

For those who don't follow it, I've posted my TGS and Japanese cosplay report on the ACP Livejournal. I'll just add some additional notes and stuff here so that this post isn't entirely useless:

More personal observations and opinions on Japanese Cosplay at TGS )

I noticed the eyeliner with that Roxas (she was also Ven) too, but I think she was trying to replicate Nomura's style. I say this in having done the same many moons ago, only a little more subtle :B

Oooh that's good to know - otherwise that would've just been a really random fluorish.

(Goths would have more subtle eye makeup than that one lol)

I suggest Wonder Festival over Comiket, Comiket is a little too over crowded and you know how it is there. X3;;; Pictures don't come out all that great either. :/

You'd be surprised in the interest ACP has on internationals, don't be afraid to hand out more cards next time Henry~ :D

only armed with Oppai Tensai business cards instead...
I know for a fact you'd get respect for that from selective people. XD;

Yea, I know Wonder Festival has their cosplay area in a different location - only problem is that it usually conflicts with some of the Spring Cons here...

HRM, maybe Oppai Tensai cards will be needed after all!
The question is whether those selective people would be ones I'd want to date, err, talk to

Ahh yeah. :< Conflicting is a problem, have you looked at any other cosplay events in Japan? They have tons of events going on in Japan, game and anime related sometimes. Comiket does run into events here too. :/

Hehe, they view these type of things different from how people here view it. Another difference US vs. Japan. :p
You never know until you try~ These no excuse for not trying you know. :3 haha

Read the line again:

I just hope I'll have someone to take pictures with when I wear Battler next year...

Will definitely get pics of you two though! Cristi better not be "uuu~ing" though, I will punch her in the face if she does, no questions asked. >_

Derp, got so excited about Umineko that I didn't read all of it. I'm sure we can re-wear them though!

FASCINATING CON REPORT, DESU~!!!!!

I still would like to try a convention in Japan one day, just for the experience. I know if I went expecting to have the kind of fun I do at ones in the US, I would be incredibly disappointed, so I would go just to see what it's like TO TRULY BE GODZILLA-TAN to be one of very few enormous white girls at a convention in the birthplace of animu.

My weirdest time cosplaying at TGS (2007) is when I literally had a line of photographers waiting to take my picture. Most of them didn't even say anything to me, they just kept snapping and expecting me to switch poses. It made me feel like an idol, or a model, and was definitely a unique experience.
