Otaku Taiki con report
So, I went to Otaku Taiki yesterday, where I went alone because my sister fell ill. I came with two costumes, a partial HRE and casual!Canada and met up with some more Hetalia peeps before going off with ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
osmalic and wunder
Impressions about the con: people weren't staying inside the hall. D: There were fewer booths offering merchandise - but the ones I saw were quite good, actually. I think whatever was happening on stage simply wasn't capturing people's attention, which is kinda sad, because I was amused when they did their version of Pinoy Henyo. The person was supposed to be guessing Code Geass, but kept saying stuff about hentai anime. xDDD; Better cameras on the photographers, and there were lots of them. Also a surprising amount of people just dressed up in Harajuku/Lolita/VK outfits. Maybe next con I can go and take pictures of them as well.
First up, all the Hetalia! Basically a repost of my![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
hetalia_ph entry.
The first person I met was actually Finlandneko_panigiri, who was dressed up as Miku today.
Italia!
Absolutely Invincible British Gentleman!
xedosarthea Spain sans Romano. Really. We should start recruiting for one for the next con. :D
England is not pleased.
So turns out everyone was meeting up at Bubble Tea, and it was someone's birthday!
Sorry! I had to take a picture of ramen-eating Japan!
Hungary~♥
Greece and Japan. Trufax, Greece took longer than me to prepare. Or something :D
Countries should not be allowed near them rider things!
Austria says O HAI!
Flags - Germany was there in spirit!
Austria + beer station = otp?
Comparing the length of their swords. Erm. Yeah. Subtext much?
Seeing double, Antonio.
Seeing double, Kiku version!
I requested Self-cest!
Nations photobombed!
France doing his parenting best.
I asked for Raep face. France complied!
kamui_shidou Japan.
Spain.
Aha. USxUK moment.
Austria provides the background music.
France joins in! I love the France, I really do. She was an amazing France.
Family picture. Iggy is not amused.
More "comparisons of swords".
This was supposed to be an Asia-only pic. England and Austria says they're asians! Hilarity ensues.
While they were preparing for the Asia-only pic. Japan does her best to grope England.
The closest I ever got to an Asia picture.
Ah. There was actually het in this con.
France decides to see whether Hungary is really a girl. This shot was accidentally taken right afterwards. OTL.
Invading vital regions!
My quick Canada cosplay.
One more Italia!
My alternate country when the HRE was too hot to move in, and Italia.
Seeing double Italy style.
BFFs + sheep.
Sealand!
Peppy took a picture of my incomplete HRE cosplay. I was actually already in casual clothes then switched over to the HRE outfit right outside the event xD
I actually didn't get to go with their photoshoot, because I was going to meet up with friends. Also I wanted to take some pictures of the other cosplayers. Note to self: if taking part in a group shoot, take pictures of everyone else before the meetup. Also I did my best moe-moe impression to get them to agree to think about cosplaying next time :D
There were a couple of cosplays I missed. Namely Astroboy, Ciels (there were at least 2!), most of the Naruto cosplayers and a Haruhi group! D:
Non-Hetalia cosplay
This scene met me when I walked in the fifth floor where the Con was.
Cloud almost didn't join this picture.
Persona with a rubber ducky.
Awesome awesome props. Also, anyone willing to have electrical tape across their face is awesome. xD;
Such a pretty pretty Rozen Maiden cosplay. :D
InuYasha and his big sword.
Her Ciel vanished. Drats.
The costumes are getting seriously better as time goes by. I mean, look at that apron! Look at those belts!
Vampire Knight - I think a lot of people seriously likes the design of this series, which is why it's so popular.
Vampire class!uniform. I took this pic because I had a coworker who loves the series.
Haruhi. I failed my goal of taking a picture of every single Haruhi around. I could have done the same challenge with all the FMA characters around xD;
Come Wendy, to Neverland! (Or the nearest elevator)
Yankumi of Gokusen.
There is no con without Naruto. I didn't get a picture of all the genins running around though.
S-sh-shut up. I know no one understands why I love YGO. D:
OTL FINE FINE ME AS HRE WITH YAMI!YUUGI.
Childhood! I watched this in Grade 5. There was actually a powerup!Yuusuke running around with InuYasha. xD;
Kurapika. I recall seeing those chains somewhere before!
Hisokaaa~!
Willy Wonka invites you to his chocolate factory.
I wish I got a shot of how awesome the detail was on her dress.
I need help identifying my Kamen Riders, obviously. Ariri-nee said this was Kamen Rider Den-O Liner form.I just might watch Kamen rider so I can identify them
The newest endorser of donuts, Kamen Rider Kabuto.
There are no words to express my fascination about a guy dressed up as Lady Gaga.
So much pink and girly stuff!
A con without Arrancar is like a con without Naruto.
Kairi and her awesome key!
I may be mistaken, but there was a matching Miaka in the con.
What I said about Naruto and stuff. Yeaaah.
Aaaarcheeeeer~<3 I wish I got a shot of Saber.
Water dispenser bottle as gatling gun. Yeeeah!
A target is provided. Hilarity ensues.
Nanao is not pleased, taichou.
Mao from Cooking Master boy. More childhood memories! :D
Guess who squeed when she saw FF:TA2 cosplay?
I take pictures at the most inopportune moments. I think they were off to lunch!
Guns! It was getting harder to take pictures as the afternoon wore on because of lighting.
It was absolutely difficult to take a picture of the Gundam alone. Everyone was taking pictures with it.
Reborn is pimping!
Drats. I was trying to get just a group shot.
I'm gay for Lussuria. OH WAIT.
I'm just glad he didn't aim that blade to me. >_>
Lussuria loves you all~<3
Ryohei was kinda amusing. He was doing fight poses the whole time.
Bianchi's awesome cake.
PHOTOGRAPHERS NEED LOVE TOO. Also look at the cameras people are packing these days.
Con pics can be found on multiply or Flickr. Sorry for the quality! I was packing a Kodak easyshare and in low light conditions it's pretty much useless. Thank God someone came up with photoshop and editing levels.
