Anime Expo 2009 prep

c548590f91a5b3e8fe225a80e9febab592f7df0e

Tomorrow will be my first trek to Anime Expo. I’ve always wanted to go, but every time it came around, I always had plans that conflicted with it. Even though I’m only going for just one day (tomorrow), I’m really excited! The only convention experience I’ve really had was CCI in San Diego and CES in Las Vegas. I’ll be figure and gunpla shopping as well as perusing the whole convention.

I’ll be cosplaying as Tieria Erde from Gundam 00, pink cardigan and all. And yes, I do own a pink cardigan. You’ll most likely see me with Lester in his Shadow Stormtrooper armor.

Here’s a list of things I’ll be checking out while I’m there:

  • ParaPara Dancing 101 at 11 AM
  • (possibly) Gundam: the 30 year anniversary at 1 PM
  • Wandering around Artist Alley
  • Looking for Capcom’s booth to try out Tatsunoko vs. Capcom
  • Maybe checking out the AniMaid Cafe

For those who’ve already gone to AX in the past, is there anything you recommend? Also, good dinner eats around the area would be great.

See you there!

Long live the King of Pop

To celebrate his life, here are a couple of videos (and some silly flash videos) involving him that I’ve enjoyed:

Michael Quest III – original flash video

Michael Fantasy – original flash video

Michael Forever – original flash video

Michael Jackson’s Moonwalker for the Sega Genesis

P.Y.T. as performed by the Jabbawockeez

Rest in peace, Michael Jackson.

Touhou Nendoroid series

20090623

Touhou. Nendoroids. TOUHOU Nendoroids! Just announced on the official site that there will be a Nendoroid based on the Touhou series available for purchase at C76. So far, the silhouette they’ve shown us is of Reimu, but wouldn’t it be cool if they had even more of the characters?

If they come out with a Hong Meiling or Flandre, I’M ALL OVER IT. Then again, I’d want them all. ;x

If anybody’s going to C76…c-could you please check this out? ;___; Speaking of Nendoroids, I’ve yet to actually pick one up myself. I only own the Nendoroid Petits from Lucky Star and Haruhi. I was really tempted on getting the Kagamiku, but I really, really want the regular Miku for myself ;_; Oh, and maybe a Tsukasa. If I could get my hands on Exelica, though…that’s a whole different story right there.

And just like that, K-ON! has come to a close. The past couple of episodes went towards a more serious route, deviating from the usual random antics the girls would go through. One thing I liked about these episodes though is the character development, especially with episode 11. I have to admit, I actually shed a tear :x

Even though the series has come to an end, there’s a special coming up! Definitely looking forward to that. I’ll also be looking into the 4-komas to get my K-ON! fix, too. For those who have already read the 4-koma, are there any similarities/differences from the 4-koma to the anime?

I was inspired by Gordon’s post regarding Photofunia and wanted to mess around with the site, too! Enjoy the random photos and Youtube links after the jump. Image sources range from imgDump to Gelbooru.

Also, if you’d like, you can vote for your favorite images :3

Summer art dump

Before continuing on with other posts, I really wanted to squeeze this in. I finally have some art! Azunyan is here to help me out with that.

I’m in the process of catching up on commissions and will be finishing them up as soon as possible. I’ve updated the art section so that it’s reflective of what’s posted in here. I’ll post again when I’m available for commissioning. I’m excited to start on new projects :)
