Been to cons before ? Share your past adventure or upcoming ones here !

On my side I just freshly came back from one and it was pretty cool although not exactly as active as normally. Let's say the temperature wasn't on our side ! D8... Although I did take quite a HUGE pack of pictures(over 400) and a couple of video while I was walking around in there. Only funny thing I don't quite have a pict of myself, or at least not only my friend send me her picts.

Still defenetly more fun and affordable to have a lift, arriving on the convention spot at 11 am on friday was amazing, there was already ton of peoples ! Yeah ^-^

So here goes for the picts, still uploading though. Video to be coming, and the facebook albums of the con are fully open so enjoy even without an account ! ^-^

Anime North 2011, Toronto, Canada :

Part one(200 picts) : https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.218571434828507.58795.100000269575498&l=d0f7a29400

Part two(still uploading) : https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.218706368148347.58846.100000269575498&l=d60253a924

Videos will come soon as well on this channel : https://www.youtube.com/user/HikariKuragari?feature=mhee


As for more details on my con and what I did.... Well mostly shopping and walk around taking picts everywhere xD! The weather was pretty cold and a little bit rainy on friday but still okay. Although some more fragile people had an hard time with that and fell sick =/ .

But other then that overall it was an amazing week end ^-^..... And I also found XENOGEARS *hug her game* haha

You have so many awesome pics! I couldn't stop liking them when I went through your albums. XD Anyway, I've never been to a con before but I'm really hoping I can make it out to one in Québec or Ontario someday.

Comic Con montreal report : Was ... Okay but they need to organize themselves WAY better then that >.> . Many things didn't work well such as crappy line ups, staff un-prepared to guide people to X panel. Hours of events that were confusing ect.

But I did took an awesome pict ! 8D

Hello folks ! Sorry if I'm terribly late for the stuff of my last convention buuuut.... I'm finally done uploading everything.

The convention was held from january 24-26 and was at Gatineau congress center.

I didn't take many picts as you can see, but I'll try and do better at the next con. : https://www.facebook.com/hikari.kuragari.5/media_set?set=a.730597036959275.1073741831.100000269575498&type=3

As promised a pict of me, I was derp enough to forget to like take a pict of myself on each day, but, on the saturday I found Syo from the same serie... or rather the cosplayer found me screaming : NANAMIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIiiiiiiiiii And yeah I turned, we huggued and spoke a bit and then I took a pict with her, thanks to total stranger that we disturbed in his texting... cause erm yeah I was alone at that moment and going to join my friends that were further ... Thank you celphone guy for taking the pict with my camera ;D.

Pict of me(I'm the one with pink hairs, not the one with blonde and pink hihi) and syo :
Spoiler:

And no I didn't have my contacts.... never managed to put them on at the convention sadly. But I'll practice for next time ! (Have to anyway.... XD)

Wow ! I think it's about time I update this xD....

Well first of all Otakon 2014 in baltimore :
The highlight of that week end was that I got to meet with Vye and pass the week end with him, was pretty cool. The downside was although last year otakon was perfect in every way... this year was convention wise a flop. I don't know what happened but I would give them a 0/10 in management this year xD... but a still 10/10 on friendly staff level. I still had fun overwall at least =)

Here's what my cosplay looked like, though a lot saw it from my fb :

Nanami from Uta no prince sama 2000%
Spoiler:

and the album : https://www.facebook.com/hikari.kuragari.5/media_set?set=a.828245863861058.1073741834.100000269575498&type=3

-------------------------------------

Now for Otakuthon which was just this week end I went through some look change for the love of my character and also cause I was tired of long hair so before I go in con details :

Before haircut :
Spoiler:
After Haircut :
Spoiler:

And yeah now for otakuthon report, I must say they too had really retarded organisation this year... line... oh look ANOTHER line ... and another ... and another xD... not to mention not printing enough schedule on thursday badge pick up for pre reg which they should have the exact number off... yeah pretty fail.

But still I had a great time cosplaying on friday and saturday... nobody saw my haircut before the con and everyone was like OMG when they saw me... Friday I met with Nobuo Uematsu and Arnie Roth and got their autograph on my ff9 booklet. *squee* But yeah the highlight of friday was probably the reaction from my friend who was eren... none of us saw each other before the con so yeah XD

Saturday had a few deception on the side of trying to get to see some guest and stuff... but I still had a good time with my friends and later on with watching the masquerade that was amazing and on sunday I managed to get an autograph and a pict with the voice actress of Mikasa from SnK(japenese one). And also got to see two panels with another guest, Kaname, an amazing cosplayer from japan.

Though I must say it was an hardcore week end, go to bed at almost 1 and wake up at 5-6 am to get ready in cosplay/makeup, plus eating only when I needed cause I was running back and forth and wasn't really hungry due to the bandages around my chest ... yeah got to suffer for good cosplay XDD... Only thing I'll say about that cosplay ... I wanna burn that harness in fire ! (rather make my own cause the one I got sucks XD)

Here's a pict of the final result that was taken on friday :

Me as Levi and my friend as Eren from SnK(attack on titan):
Spoiler:

And the full album :
https://www.facebook.com/hikari.kuragari.5/media_set?set=a.834777589874552.1073741835.100000269575498&type=1

Aaaaand the videos :
