Anime Expo Revisited or How I Blew Ninety-nine Bucks.
Grifter here and I'm somewhat fresh off of my first trip to Anime Expo. I say somewhat fresh because I was there on Saturday.
Anyway, all I can say is wow, what a day that was. Full of great panel sessions and tons o' swag; not to mention the bounty of costumed fans littering the place. If their were any doubt that there are a lot o' Naruto fans out there, those thoughts are long extinguished now.
Being that there were plenty o' cosplayers to go around, I took plenty o' snaps of the one I liked and new. Mind you I had help locating some of them. You see I brought along my two little brothers. They're not my real brother. They're two high school aged guys that I mentor. They're bothe very good guys and huge anime fans, so I brought 'em with me to take in all the festivities.
I don't want to bore you all with the details so, I'll just hit the highlights.
Met Vic Mignona - aka Edward Elric and Kurtz Weber
Tommy Yun - Director of Robotech
Took snaps of two cosplayers dressed as Misato (yum)
Took a snap of a great Vash cosplay.
Geeked out at a Panel for Gundam
Met up with a small group of Otakus
Met Adam and Gail from The O (very, very cool people)
That's about the gist of my visit. I'll be posting pictures in the next few days.
Needless to say, I'll definitely be going back next year.
Have a great Fourth o' July everyone.
Grif
