:: hobbycon 2008 recap - day 2 ::

Okay! Here's the continuation of the previous post! I was saying that I was going to cosplay for the second day of Hobbycon. So here it is. I was cosplaying as Tsubaki Nakatsukasa from the anime "Soul Eater."

- Soul Eater : Tsubaki Nakatsukasa -

As u can see, she's a ninja character. Just the kind of character I like. XD Here's a little bit about the anime.

Anime: Soul Eater
Genre: action, adventure, comedy, supernatural
Source: Anime News Network

Plot Summary:
Soul Eater is an anime that centers around meisters and their weapons and their mission to collect 99 evil souls and 1 witch soul. Upon doing that the meister's weapons will become a Deathscythe, which is the highest title for a weapon. Maka, Soul Eater, Black Star, Tsubaki, Death the Kid, and Patty and Liz Thompson are the characters Soul Eater revolves around. Besides taking the time to gather souls these students of Shibusen defend Death City from some of the most powerful of creatures while still attending school and trying to become stronger.

The second day was a totally different experience for me. XD *genki-ness overflow* I had to act as my character at all times as much as possible. The constant photo taking was making me tired but it was so much fun, I couldn't care less. *lol*

Ah! yes! The were some incidents wear the cosplayers (including me) had a run-in with the leg-fetish-photographer-reporter. He would ask us to pose for a picture, but after a few clicks, we girls noticed that the camera lenses was aiming a somewhat lower focus. Legs fetish! =_= hard to stop posing when there are also other people taking our photos. Huhuhu.. Oh well.. You get away this time, leg-fetish-man! :P

All in all, the event was a success. We had a lot of fun! We make it known to the public that there are hobbies like these in Kota Kinabalu and we are having fun! XD

I had a blast at Hobbycon 2008. And I'll be coming back for the next Hobbycon for another cosplay fun-ness! XD

The first day I was not cosplaying. I was just dressing up for the event. XD Was hoping I could liven up the atmosphere in Hobbycon. It was my first Hobbycon experience and I would say it was more than I expected! I had a lot of fun!

The figurines booth are to die for. *figure of speech* I just love oogling at the figurines and the fine details. Heheh.. The game booth was crowded. Guitar Hero was fun to play! The maid cosplayers at the maid booth was cute. But I only went after the sweet treats! Heheh! I have a sweet tooth for candies, cakes and ice cream. ;P

I was there for quite a while. After the first day ended, I just couldn't wait for the second day of Hobbycon. Because I'll be cosplaying! XD

I went to Kobe Cream Puff stall in Palm Square for lunch today. I asked for the owner (Kagawa Sensei) if its ok to put the Hobbycon 2008 poster at his stall. He took a look at it for a while and said, "Oh! *points at Maid* this is just like Japanese culture" ^^;; well, lucky for me he agreed to put up the poster at his stall. XD *yay*
