Tadaima Kaerimashita…

Published by Hinano at 7:18 pm under Conventions

I’m back from Otakon. But I have to catch up on a ton of crap so the usual updates will continue to be delayed.

Otakon was fun. I actually enjoyed Friday more than I enjoyed Saturday this year, which typically turns out the other way around for me. Sure I got kicked outta first round of Otaku Idol, but I got sick of being on that stage with crappy speakers/mic and constantly seeing one of the DJ’s bitching at the Otaku Idol host because the damn thing was delayed like 45 minutes. At least I got my haruhi dance down. ;)

I got glomped twice on Saturday. Once as Sakura, and the 2nd time someone 3 times bigger than me said “HARUHI! CAN I HUG YOU?” when I was wearing my Suzumiya Haruhi cosplay after the idol show. But before I could answer I was being glomped. My boyfriend got glomped as Naruto, and they kept latchin on as we were walking away. :shock: It was kinda weird o_o;. I got a chance to hang out with Mike (who apparently now moved to a new blog!)

For my Otakon photos go here. I will upload more later but so far you can check out what’s there! Hopefully I’ll be back for this Sunday’s animenano podcast.

No tag for this post.

    Ha ha, I was going to ask you if you would let me use your pictures online, but I guess you saw them already.

    Hey, welcome back! We missed you during the podcast when stuff was hard to pronounce! Hopefully the podcast’ll actually be on time this Sunday…

    Awesome Haruhi outfit~

    Haruhi! I have friends who’d do more than merely glomp you, given the chance. :D I take it your boyfriend’s not the type who looks good dressed as the sarcastic Kyon, then?

    I am so head over heel over every haruhi at the con (all 4 of them?). You rock~

    Bah. I demand a full video of the Haruhi dance!!

    While I was people watching, I was amazed at the number of girls asking for hugs. I mean, I just don’t get it. OH, and what’s up with the hissing/growling??? 3 dudes did that to me. It’s hard to keep a straight face. =D

    Mike> I saw your blog at work (it actually wasn’t blocked!) so I figured I’d check out your pics afterwards and whoa there I was! XD

    Hung> I listened to both podcasts they were cool except that burp in the 2nd one lmao wtf was that XD Well I know you guys did it before but why not cut it!! XD

    Drago> Where the funk were you?

    Haes> My bf didn’t cosplay Kyon but one guy came up to me telling me he was gonna be Kyon on Sunday but Sunday I barely stepped foot into the building

    omo> There was 4? I only saw 3….(including myself)

    Ten> I have the video but its like…for my eyes only!! Or the memories of those who watched it XDDD (mainly cause the acoustics sucked and I sang like a drunk cat) Guys hissed and growled?? O.o; No one did that to me, I only got hugs lol

    I couldn’t make it ;_; Marketing Concepts class got in the way

  9. Ronin PHILIPPINESon 09 Aug 2006 at 11:17 am

    That’s a spot-on Haruhi if I do say so myself. ;)

  10. zelie UNITED KINGDOMon 09 Aug 2006 at 4:30 pm

    You guys looked good! But some ppl in the group photos didn’t put that much effort in their outfits and hair ^^;;

    That Zabuza looks pretty scary *lol*

  11. Hinano UNITED STATESon 09 Aug 2006 at 4:46 pm

    His sword was actually pretty light haha (well hm that might have been another Zabusa..lol) Yea that one Naruto guy didnt even have a wig, I think people who dont put in the effort to get the right hair color really kill the character XD

  12. Mandy UNITED STATESon 09 Aug 2006 at 6:33 pm

    YAHHH! i can’t wait for more updates rofl. i was in withdrawl i missed them rofl.

    and I LOVE THE PICS.
    YOU LOOKED AWESOME.

  13. Hinano UNITED STATESon 09 Aug 2006 at 9:54 pm

    thanks XD

  14. waista AUSTRALIAon 10 Aug 2006 at 12:04 am

    You had every right to flying-side-kick anyone trying to glomp you, be the Haruhi. Next time maybe. Video of that would’ve been cool, but we’ll settle for the Haruhi dance thanks!

    I have a post request. Can you do a recommended Jdrama post please? I grabbed the first ep. of Maid in Akihabara and decided to stick to anime for the time being.

    Is it much hassle for you to get this blog to show up on blogsuki? Second favourite anime blog btw, keep it coming. Good work on the podcast too. Thanks.

  15. TG3 UNITED STATESon 10 Aug 2006 at 7:30 am

    great haruhi costume. looks like it was a lotta fun

  16. Hinano UNITED STATESon 10 Aug 2006 at 7:37 am

    TG3> Thanks :)
    waista> I never heard of Maid in Akihabara and from the title it sounds crappy anyway XD;; As far as recommendations I’ve seen over 30 dramas, and currently since a lot of them are hard to get a hold of, I guess I just recommend the 3 that I am watching. ;)
    Regarding blogsuki, I believe Jason closed registration for blogs because he didn’t want anymore blogs that blogged “recent things” or something? So actualy yes it is a hassle (but it seems mostly for him :lol:)

  17. waista AUSTRALIAon 10 Aug 2006 at 8:36 am

    I’m guessing you mean that the three you’re watching are the best of the current season rather than the best of the thirty you’ve watched, right?

    Have you been to http://www.d-addicts.com ? The jdrama list is endless, I’m sure I could get a hold of whatever. If you just can’t be bothered doing recommendations that’s not a problem too.

    *cough*haruhi dance video*cough* ;)

  18. Hinano UNITED STATESon 10 Aug 2006 at 4:49 pm

    lmao NO ONE WILL SEE THAT VIDEO EXCEPT FOR ME!!! XD;; (mainly cause my singing is horrendous)

    Yes I download all my dramas from that website lol but I d/l raws so I dont know who subs what and whether anyone torrents anything but I do have a jdorama profile page which has my reviews of different dramas I saw if it helps any: http://jdorama.com/viewprofile.7063.htm
