OTAKON

OblivionVII · OTAKON

So we all know Otakon is August 4-6. Who's going, who are you going as, will you be participating in any tournament, and anything else?

I'm still trying to figure out what I'm going to go as, because I'm broke and have no money to buy a costume and have no desigining or sewing or tailoring skills whatsoever so I almost definitely will not be able to make a costume/
I wanted to go as Tousen from Bleach but couldn't find anyone to make the costume, ha and one person who said they could said it'd be expensive to buy all the fabric that it took after taking a look at the pictures but ah oh well.

I'm definitely going to try to sign up for the DDR Tournament and any other video game tournaments I have a good chance of dominating in.

And I'm definitely going to try to get a lot of autographs, swag, and singing my favorite J-Pop, J-Rock, anime songs.

What's everyone else looking forward to?

OblivionVII

Haha nice, I might cosplay as Wisdom Form Sora because I have a shirt and then a pair of swim trunks that look just like what his costume when he transforms, haha. Now about the shoes though...

social_geek

...he..ha.ha....hoho...he......you...as barett!! HA!

Big_Vinny

I'll go to boost my ego by seeing bigger losers than me, if nothing else.

Kensha

I'm doing KH2 Aeris on the day we do the FF characters.
Who did we deciede Laura should be?
Haha...Barret..

OblivionVII

Ha ok if that's the case I'll hang out with ya'll and be like, I'm Wisdom Form Sora.
And then they'll be like.
@_@ A Black Sora, what the?!
Then I'll be like, I'm the one who taught Sora everything he knows, you didn't think he learned all those fencing and sword skills by playing with a wooden sword all day on an island did you?

social_geek

laura was going to Anju, right.....Maybe laura can be barret's asian child.

ironing_wallpaper

GRRRRR! I'v never even played final fantisy! Who the heck is that? Maby i'll go as Rei, although it would be another hard costume to make.

ironing_wallpaper

Oh, and by the way does any one have a color picture of maria becasue there isent one in the chapters I have so it's hard to design a costume

Kensha

Oh...wow I have no idea what colour hair maria/shizuka has..
Lets just say its white and recycle the Anju wig~

ironing_wallpaper

yeah execpt Anju's hair is silver

social_geek

close enough.

Kensha

close enough for government work .__.

OblivionVII

aw man I don't know if I'll be able to go now, I'm suffering from a lack of funds to get the tickets. -_-

Kensha

Black Sora is going to be so scary..
You must come!
....
Oh well..I suppose black Sora is no worse then large, short, black, Ren with huge hips...
Haha

OblivionVII

Haha I'll try, I'll try.

social_geek

ironing_wallpaper and I went out shopping at a hair store, the only wig the right collor was too short. Crying or Very sad

But there is hope alot of the wigs were the right lenth. Very Happy

Kensha

Ah...thats too bad ;__;
I'ma need to buy 2 Wigs..both brown so thats easy (Yuuki and Aeris). I'll put some more purple die in my hair so I can be Karin

social_geek

if you bleach you hair then dye it, the color would be perfect.

Kensha

But that will destroy my hair .__.

social_geek

so! Everyboby have fun? I got all my manga stolen.

Big_Vinny

I'm stuck up in Maine in the middle of nowhere, so I couldn't go. How'd all your manga get stolen?

Big_Vinny

Fucking Maine. Evil or Very Mad

social_geek

hey! I like maine! I but my bags down on my chair at the viewing room and went to go look for beka (we got separated) and when I came back all my stuff was gone. And the little theif had the tenacity to take Ferdinand to the lost and found!

Big_Vinny

OblivionVII

Yah I didn't get to go either but next year it's on.

Big_Vinny

I missed GenCon too. That really pissed me off.

Big_Vinny

FUCKING MAINE!!!!!

social_geek

Well....I'm a cheap little bastard, so I only had three raw manga, one translated manga, vampire teeth, glue and all my swag.

How bad were the bugs in Maine? P.S. see you at school tomorrow.

OblivionVII

Yo I'm still alive, yaaay
anyways I thought I'd just drop the dates for next year.
