@leaf: you're growing up. *brofist*

first day of con was fucking majestic. I am burnt to shit though and my temporary roommates want to watch Attack on Titan, so I'm a bit pissed. on the upside, you know it's a great con when Friday is barely over and you already have a medium-sized cardboard box of stuff. -w-

Attack on Titan

>the silly name
>the silly everything
>the fucking LOL EVERYONE IS A TITAN
I feel your rage, minion. I really do. Punch them for me.

[Chocofreak13]

*huggle* thanks for the permission, master. I also got permission from a panel yesterday to punch anyone in the face who says I'm cosplaying wrong.


blegh, I can't tell if I'm feeling sick from nerves or lack of food....could be both. I should eat more of this bag of goldfish and drink more coke cause this is breakfast.

chase it down with a pickled plum and pocky for lunch aw yeah

@Kari: I have to wonder what happened with Attack on Titan that made everyone go from absolutely loving it to despising it :\
(Although, it never interested me; it seemed a touch generic. Granted, I have a policy of "why watch [new anime] when I still haven't seen [classic anime]?")

So, I had a damn good morning today :3
I went to the community garage sale in the parking lot to the newspaper's office, and obtained the following:

- Some CDs (Savatage, Guns 'N Roses): $.50 each
- Gamecube games (Mario Kart: Double Dash, Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door): $3 each
- New Super Mario Bros. Wii: $5
- Original model DS (Mario Kart Red): $10

Now I finally have a DS to help migrate Pokémon from the older games to the newer ones >:3
(Also, killer deal on the Gamecube games; Paper Mario alone is usually $25+ in this condition)

So today I went to a CeX (they sell things like video games, DVDs, mobile phones, computers, etc), and took a look at the anime section to see if they had anything... then I notice this old guy, who looked kinda frail and shaggy. He picked up a random DVD of Ikki Tousen: Battle Vixens and was eyeing it weirdly (just staring at the busty babes). I must've watched him awkwardly doing it for like, five minutes.

weird

[Chocofreak13]

awesome.

my feet are no longer feet; they are death bricks. or pain lumps. or agony sacks, whatever you want to call them. I missed the hentai dubbing (partially on purpose because I missed a golden opportunity to get an amazing seat), but honestly, it's a bit of a good thing since I am balls fucking tired. and despite missing a few things (seeing some friends and they canceled my morning panel >:[ ), I instead am going to focus on the positives. I cleaned the fuck up at the swap meet, and am leaving with no trade fodder for next year. I have dubbed this RareCon due to the large amount of random rare stuff/happenings I've been getting. alternatively, I'm also calling it BootCon due to
Das Boot being stuck in my head for over 24 hours and this being the year I upgraded my Lum cosplay to boots.

Glad the con's fun!  I missed the local one.  Could've gone Friday if I'd looked up the date any sooner then that Friday at 9PM.  At least I got an Osprey book on Pirates for $1 at Goodwill.

That reminds me... where the hell have all my Gunsmith Cats and You're Under Arrest! hard-to-find-fucking-damnit volumes gone?  I'd like to blame my brother since he seems to constantly borrow my manga without saying anything or returning it.  Or I might have missed it when I was adding the new things (Who's Who in the DC Universe Vol. 20, My Little Pony #17 [It's great.  Read it], Adam Strange miniseries from the early 90s, Dial H For Hero re-print, and a Superman story [only one I own]).  Seriously those are two of my favorite series and I had a hard enough time getting them as it is.

On Attack on Titan: It looked like action/adventure series 771C to me so it never went on my radar.  I haven't been watching much anime lately since I'm plowing through all 200+ episodes of Dragnet from the radio run.

@Kari: Welcome to the "OSCers who own copies of OS-tan hentai doujins" club :3

@Stew: That sucks that some of your manga is missing, but sounds nice on the stuff you added

So, I might have the Spirit sold; coworker wants to look at it on Monday before I go into work, and will likely give me part of the money then

[LeaflameSD]

>natalia poklonskaya

New waifu confirmed.

[Nichi]

@Leaf: LOL'd at your new avatar

[stewartsage]

Good luck with the car sale Pent.

Manga update: I forgot only one volume was in a sleeve.  The rest were found correctly filed amongst IDW Star Trek serieses.

[Chocofreak13]

that's good. ^^

Con day 3 was, as always, odd in nature due to that feeling of both urgency and tapering off. you want to get SO MUCH DONE BECAUSE ZOMG IT'S ALMOST OVER and at the same time, a quiet peace overtakes you knowing that, yes, it is over, but this was meant to be and it's not "goodbye", just "see you next year". I went to a few panels, spent the last of my money at the dealer's room (literally went around saying "I AM LEAVING THE CON BROKE. MY MISSION IS COMPLETE."), and caught up with some friends as we went to closing ceremonies. the AMV winners this year were fucking amazing (will compile them into a playlist and post it here when they go up on the web), and I left proud of myself for the amazing haul and the great time, and proud of the whole con for something I knew would happen this year.

we broke 25,000 attendees.

OVER TWENTY-FIVE-FUCKING-THOUSAND PEOPLE CAME TO THIS CONVENTION.

and it can only get bigger.
(april 3-5 2015, kaiju vs mecha bitches~)

[Nichi]

...I want that Cirno pin >w>;;

[Chocofreak13]

sorry brosef. I already know who that's going to. -w-;
