Well, yeah I’m not dead yet, and with the pleasant surprise of Nagato-sama’s sudden reappearance, I thought I should post something. It’s Easter here on my side, and I’m glad that there’s meat again in my life. Hooray meat!

On the first Sunday this April I went to an anime convention entitled Ozine Fest ‘09. Sunday was the third day of the three-day convention, and it was the only day I’d be very available so I jumped right in. I managed to arrive at around 11am in desperation to join the on-the-spot drawing competition, BUT–

First Dilemma

[No More Slots for Individual Competitions]

Rakuen: *Rage*

Attendant: What’s the matter sir?

Rakuen: <bites attendant’s arm>

Attendant: Kyahhh!!!

So that’s the end of the first dilemma. On to the second dilemma.

Second Dilemma

My pals (including Arachnicus) and I have been planning on going to this convention since November last year, then a text message 3 days before the convention.

["I'm sorry I can't come, our classmates in high school invited me for swimming."]

Rakuen: F*cksalt.

I knew such a thing would happen so I asked a few classmates in the college I’m currently studying in, but then at the last minute–

[I'm sorry I can't come. Family stuff.]

Rakuen: Good for you. Have fun. Now get out of my sight.

<Disappointment>

So in the end I went to the con alone, and I don’y know how to get to the venue, so I had to bribe my genius onii-chan to get directions.

<Scammed>

I had to thank for the directions though. If weren’t for those I wouldn’t have gotten back home. I’m the type of person who’s really not good with directions and maps. But I still got there, I’m thankful.

First order of business: Look at the lovely figures and contemplate

Equipped with his extremely CHEAP camera, Rakuen intervenes.

It’s hard to take pics of the figures though, because of the glass case.

<Got tired standing around>

Second order of business: Go over to the concert hall

The concert hall is where pretty much every major event took place, especially the cosplaying, and the karaoke competition. And then a girl took every one’s attention–

<Cute loli sang Motteke Sailor Fuku>

And everyone went wild. I mean she sang it pretty decently despite the song being so hard to be fathomed. She kinda looked like little Aya Hirano, and even sounded like little Aya Hirano.

Rakuen: HHHHHHHNNNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!

Third order of business: Find something good to take home

I happened to have took home a female cosplayer or two. I went over to the market area to get some DVD’s and hopefully find something I’d like.

[Cowboy Bebop (Complete Series) + Cowboy Bebop Movie obtained]

[Awesome Pin obtained]

[1/144 scale Zaku obtained for free]

Rakuen: Mission Success. Now to enjoy some more.

Intermission: Contact with a maiden

Rakuen: Cool! Suigintou! Can I touch her?

Guy: (scared tone) She’ll kill you…

Suigintou: Shut up you brat.

Rakuen: Ok, I’ll leave now.

Final order of business: Enjoy the other booths

I was able to try some new game. It’s name it EXTEEL. It’s a 2nd person shooting game using gundam-like machines you can be able to customize.

<and so Rakuen’s turn to try the game>

Rakuen: I am GUNDAM!!! <pawns somebody>

One more final: Get home

Rakuen: Kimochi warui…

.

Finality

I was kinda disappointed with going to a con alone for the first time. Well there’s gotta be a first for everything. The con was pretty decent. No complaints on my side, except I wasn’t able to join any competition. But I was able to try a virtual tablet of some sort, and I swear a lot of people were swarming behind me taking pictures.
