Aspirational Cosplay

Tuesday — August 31st, 2010

Yes, Badass of the Week is a real site. A recent badass was Galvarino, who’s ass was suitably bad enough to warrant a comic.

FanExpo 2010 was kind of hit and miss for me.  I have pictures! (In crappy DSi quality!)

Pluses:

• Lots of great cosplayers! Highlights include Firefox-tan, awesome Touhou cosplayers (Marisa and Flandre), and a whole bunch of other people
• I bought stuff! The Zombie Survival Guide, a Touhou doujin comic (of which I don’t know the title because it is in strange moon runes), a pocket watch (which doesn’t run =/ ), and a wooden sword.
• Dragon Quest tags! I (fully?) upgraded Stornway Inn and I’m totally pimping out with a alchemy item fountain.

Minuses:

• It was very crowded! Lots of elbowing around if you wanted to see some vendors.
• It was totally oversold! We left for lunch an hour after entry, and we found that there was a huge line up to get back in. Everyone in line was really pissed off, especially since they were still selling tickets to get in.
• Disillusionment that the Batmobile is from Minnesota.

Pro tips for next FanExpo: bring your own lunch, bring lots of drinks, and don’t leave the goddamn building.
