Alright, So it turned out these two cons were stressful, but enjoyable. Izumicon was easily my favorite out of both, I made a host of friends and managed to FINALLY get in a Con slide show : D I'd like to thank my new friends (I'm just going to name them after their cosplays or whatever name I know them by) Neji-nii-san, Simon : D, Shelby, Sora and all the other people who I hung out with at Izumicon, you guys were great and made it worth the money. In other news, I met Vic again : D It was just as awesome as the first time, except this time I got a picture : D

I lost my State Alchemist watch though T-T I didn't get a chance to show off my Takuya cosplay as much as I would have liked to, but I did run around as Takato for a while. I made a new vow to buy a yaoi doujin at every con from now on. >.> YuleCon doesn't count because they didn't have any yaoi doujinshi.

YuleCon was alright, but it has to be the con with the STUPIDEST rules... you had to have a badge to even be at the con... even in the artist alley, but they didn't check you for the one place that's important... the freakin DEALERS room.... My sister and friends got in there without a badge like all weekend... They are really stupid for that. There wasn't much to do, but I guess its because its only its second year. Regrettably I think were retiring this one. I did get the final volume of Kyo Kara Maoh Season 1. But all in all, it was mediocre. My cosplay wedding got a handful of people, but was still funny. Pein was the preacher and Aizen walked my down the Isle! XD

2009 Convention/Cosplay wrap-up

That's it for this year. No more conventions for at least 5 months. So... here is the report/summary of the cons starting at the beginning.

A-kon : Waaaaay too crowded and too much drama. I'm retiring from A-kon completely. I liked it the first year I went buuuut all in all when you have to wait in line for an elevator longer than your at the actual convention there's a problem. Maybe on day I'll return and not get a room... because the rooms were outrageous! >.> So yeah... no more A-kon

Tokyo in Tulsa : Definatly one of my favorites so far. Very fun, and had one of my most memorable events.

My engagement that is...

Will definatly be coming back next year : D Only two complaints, we didn't have our own room and the hotel needs to finish its construction. Other than that, its an awesome con and perfect size for me.

AnimeFest : AnimeFest is great, the hotel is small enough to get around in and big enough to have a lot of room to move. The Con itself is awesome. I like the hotel. The people are cool. And its one of Ami-chan's faves. So we'll be back next year : D

Izumicon: See report above! ^-^

YuleCon: Retired! See Report Above.


2009 Cosplay list and report


Edward Elric : This seems to be my most notice costume. I will be getting a new wig, i need to fix my pants. But as for now, I'm gonna keep doing this one.

Mion Sonozaki: I haven't got to do this costume much, i need to fix the wig, but for now I'm gonna keep at it.

Momo Hinamori: I like cosplaying Momo, but since my hair is short now, I'll have to wait until I either get a wig or my hair grows out.

Takuya Kanbara: Still wanting to do this one for a while longer.

Takato Matsuda: Still working on this one.

Almaz: Due to the fact that the Digaea cosplay group has broken up and that the jacket has been destroyed, I am retiring as Almaz.

Horo the Wise : I really like this costume since it was special in more than one way. It was the first costume I made and because of Tokyo in Tulsa. For now, I'll just do this one for special events.

Luppi : I haven't got to do this one effectively yet, waiting to get a wig then I will do this one more effectively.

Aizen: ^-^ Kinda stole my husbands thunder on this one, this one is more of a thing with my sister, since she is Izuru/Gin/Yachiru

Kouichi Kimura: Haven't worn to a con yet.
