A-Kon 21
This past weekend was A-Kon, so here's my big, pic-spammy post about it. Enjoy!

A completely adorable Mario and Luigi couple. They even spoke to me in the characters' Italian accents!


I kept on seeing this guy everywhere--in fact, he'll make another appearance in this post! The man was made to cosplay Mario.




Such an adorable Matt. ♥

Merle! I don't see Escaflowne cosplay often, but when I do they're usually good. Apparently there was also Van's mother, a Dilandua and a Folken there as well (I saw them while watching the cosplay event in our hotel room). If only I had come across them!




For a headcrab victim, he looks awfully happy.


In case you are unfamiliar with Metalocalypse, this is Doctor Rockso, the Rock and Roll clown. He does cocaine! K-k-k-k-k-yeah!












Quailman! This is the first time I've ever seen a Doug cosplay omg.











After I took this shot, I turned to my brother and said, "Its Amaterasu from Okami!"
"I know," he said in that sort of tone that said to me I've probably talked about Okami to him way too much.








Frank West! He's covered wars, you know. XD









I was so excited to see Sgt. Frog cosplayers that I initially blurted out, "Keroppi!" to my brother. Wrong series, dum-dum.

One of my favorite Guilty Gear characters! ♥ She was the cutest thing ever.

"Its a man, baby!" I passed by this person at first and was then, like, "I'm gonna go take a picture of that dude," to my brother. "That was a guy?!" he said. Ahahaha, I'm pretty sure I saw this same guy dressed up as Misty the previous day.

Help, Dr. Mario! I've developed blurry vision! I don't know what the hell happened to my camera during this shot.


The previous five years I've gone to A-Kon, the artwork for the 3-day badges have been of mecha-girls that I've been pretty meh over. This year's badge artwork was surprisingly awesome.


The artwork on a taco-stand next to a gas station we stopped at.
Stuff I bought:
>Moogle and Cactuar plush keychains
>Cloud and Sephiroth avatar mascot straps
>baby Godzilla plush
>Poncho (Animal Crossing) plush that has a built in stamp
>2 artbooks: Salty Dog V and The Art of Ace Attorney
>Crisp Choco snack
>manga: MPD Psycho vol 6-9, Kurosagi Corpse Delivery Service vol. 5-6, 20th Century Boys vol. 7-8, Real vol. 8
>plush purse of Chiyo's father (lol) from Azumanga Daioh








Baby Godzilla surveys the city before considering how to destroy it.




"I find the color red discomforting, why did you place me here."
Please ignore the fact that I didn't bother to color-correct this shot. The chair was actually a shade of red.

Stepped out in the hall on Sunday to find this sitting on the emergency exit sign. Inexplicable animal cracker!

On the way home I noticed a cloud that resembled an elephant. Unfortunately my mom drove way too fast for me to capture it.
Oh my god, it took me two hours to put this post together. And most of it was just copy-pasting from tinypic. :\
