San Japan 2.x Con Report!  
This was last weekend (August 14-16), but I just got around to posting this up right now. >>; SO! Pictures!


It was held at the El Tropicano hotel and the San Antonio Municipal Auditorium. This is my first year at this con, even though it started last year.


This is my badge. :)


There's always CCS cosplayers running around at cons, haha. Her outfit was cute.


Chii, yay!


I think this is Lady from Devil May Cry? She was really cool. :D


Ended up seeing this Matt from Death Note a lot over the course of the con, haha. idk why.


FMA cosplayers. :) There were a lot not only because it's a popular series, but lots of the (English dub) voice actors were guests at this con.


The first cosplayer I took a picture of. xD; Lelouch from Code Geass.


Another Lelouch and a Suzaku. Lovely outfit. 8D


Rena from Higurashi. There weren't many of this series, so yeah- I take what I can find. :)


Enma Ai from Jigoku Shoujo. I played BlazBlue with her in the game room. xD;


Kyo from King of Fighters. Not much of them either. :(


Yoko-sensei. xD I took her picture right after she got a drink from the water fountain on the left, haha. It was pretty funny.


I'm not sure who that's supposed to be, but I loved her outfit aaaand I give her props because it was BURNING HOT outside and all weekend. She must've been burning up! D: idk who the girl in the picture is either.. she was posing for a picture for her friend or something, haha.


They look familiar, but hjgdaljka their outfits are amazing. ♥


Mitsuru from Persona 3~ Very happy to see a cosplay from this series.


It was even better to see a Chie from Persona 4. *w*


Amu fro Shugo Chara. She was even holding a tiny green egg. :3


Ashton from Star Ocean 2. Amazing to see one from this series, but!


There was a Leon...


and a Rena! I got them all separately, but I wonder if they were supposed to be a group at some point? :'D


Maka from Soul Eater~


Kid. ♥ There were a few more of this cosplay walking around, too.


I think this is the same Maka from before. But now with her Soul friend! :D They were so cool, haha.


Some Tales cosplay, too. :)


And a Lara Croft because I have a nerdy!friend, Matt, that loves her. xD;


Lots of Vocaloid running around, but I didn't take many pictures of them. :| What is wrong with me. I do love how he's working that popsicle into his pose, though, hahaha.

As for merchandise...


My friend Sara couldn't make it, so I bought her some stuff. This is a Suzaku phone strap. :)




And a D.Gray Man doujin focused on Allen and Kanda (because that's what she wanted).






This was the last thing I bought at the con on Sunday. It was $20! Very reasonable, especially after I looked it up and it cost about that much, but with shipping it could easily become $30-$40 online @@; So, yes. Very excited to own some Togainu merchandise. They only has this one (I really wanted Akira), but Shiki is hot, too. xD omggg, Midorikawa and his seme!voice. ♥


This $5 Digi Charat clear poster was really cute. ^^ I.. still don't know how to put it up. I have never dealt with something like this in my life. D:


Freaking adorable stationery from an even more adorable booth in the dealer's room. They played Doushite Kimi wo Suki ni Natte Shimattan Darou? at one point. *A* OMGGGG- was totally spazzing when I heard it. The first DBSK song I heard at the con~


Stickers!






This one is so cute. It gives you the option to cut out the disc pattern (which is actually where you write your note) and then you can cut out the album cover to put the disc in. If that makes sense. xD So basically, you make your own album that holds your note, haha.




My brother, Ozzy, bought this Boota plush. SO CUTE. *w*


This thing was $16. OHGOD I MUST BE CRAZY. It's so rare, though- and totally worth it. Sumomo from Nanatsuiro Drops. ♥ They had 3 other characters, too.


I bought this from an adorable booth that was part of the artist alley. Sadly, I think they were only there for one day. It's kinda.. no, it's a really bad picture, but it's supposed to be a phone strap. It's like, cream with a ribbon in the middle. :) My mom wanted something from the store, but when I went back they were gone. :(




I got this really adorable cupcake ring there, too. ♥♥ It's a black cupcake cup with pink frosting that has little pearls, stars, a ribbon, and A BUNNY in it. *A*

My brother, Westley, also bought a IIDX doujin, some Touhou stickers in the artist alley, and a solar powered Petit Eva phone strap (it flashes this picture of Rei, it's SUPER-CUTE), but I didn't get a picture of them. D:


At the con, I met another girl that was running a booth in the dealer's room. I heard DBSK music blasting for that booth, so I went around there asking who was in charge of music, haha. That's how I met her~ It's really cool to meet another fan. *w* She said she played Suju's Sorry, Sorry before I got there, too, haha. She was like, "if you want to request something, feel free to come by and do that." xD YESSS.

Also! The Friday of the con, when I came back home my dad was carrying this tube and I totally knew what it was. MY POSTERS CAME IN YES. So pictures of all this, too!


This is the free poster that came from YesAsia's Korean Poster Campaign. I gave it to my brother because.. omg, no room on my wall. I can't believe I'm running out of room! SNSD looks super-cute here, though. ^^


SHINee's Romeo poster that qualified for the free poster thing. xD I'm just disappointed about the paper quality for this and the SNSD poster. It's more like thicker paper rather than that laminated feel that DBSK and Suju posters have. Just a heads up for anyone that was considering buying them, haha.


My Super Junior Sorry, Sorry Ver. C repackaged poster. *A* hjahgal SO PRETTY AND GUHHH.


The Mirotic Ver. C poster. ♥ The one I was missing! It's so huge and gorgeous. ♥♥

I cleaned my room recently, well, the best I could, haha. I even moved all my posters around because I had bought two Megami magazines, which meant a ton of new posters, and then I wanted to free some space for the ones I ordered. :)



Moving to the left...









And that's it. ♥


That took a while, but yes. That was my first time at San Japan. It was fun and I spent most of my time in the game room playing BlazBlue. :'D It was interesting because I didn't think I'd win some of my matches, haha.

Anyway, my first day of university is tomorrow! @@; I can't even believe summer passed by so fast! It's ridiculous. Hopefully I make it to class on time- I walked around campus to try and find my classes already since I worked there like, 3 days a week over summer. Oh, yeah! I met a girl on Wednesday who's my co-worker in the office. Our schedules just happened to be at the same time, but she listens to K-pop and stuff, too. omg, I was so happy. She really likes Big Bang. xD I plan to eat lunch with her tomorrow because neither of us want to risk being alone during lunch, hahaha. /dork. We can talk more then, too. :3

Wish me luck! I don't want to go back just yet. T0T

I know. :'D I actually added 3 more small posters to a blank part of my wall this past week, hahaha.
(Anonymous) on October 4th, 2009 01:11 am (UTC)
Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay! Someone ACTUALLY knew who I was supposed to be. xD (I was the Leon and the Rena.) People kept mistaking me for all sorts of characters during the con. >>' Me and Ashton weren't supposed to be a group, but I was surprised when a girl dressed as Gaara told me he was there. So I spent all day looking for him, but had no luck. I ended up running into Gaara again though, and she said to me "I told Ashton you were here, and he went to look for you.".. So turns out, we had been running in circles looking for each other all day. xD Anyways, thanks so much for posting these up! I really appreciate it. :)

[Oh and if you'd like to contact me, here's my youtube..I don't have a livejournal yet. ^^' (http://www.youtube.com/girbuddy) ]
Chelsea ♥: MISA ◦ sugar and spice[info]sweet_chii on October 5th, 2009 01:21 am (UTC)
Aww, it's too bad that not more people knew who you were supposed to be! :( It's always the rarer stuff that I love taking pictures of- especially when it comes to cosplay. But your story is so funny! xD It's sad that you guys didn't meet up, though. It would've been awesome- I had no idea that you guys weren't a group, haha.

Anyway, if you ever get an LJ, do tell me! I'd add you back asap~ ♥
