AX 09 - Anime Expo 2009.

I have seen angels.

Faces could definitely be better, but I'll approve nonetheless. Awesome.

Yeah, I have millions of pics and I'll upload a couple of em.
They did not have a Nexon booth =.= but yeah like Lexy said, they had this girl where you sign your name and server and stuff and she sold maple related items in the artist alley xD

K-ON! gathering, manga cafe, and Gurren Lagann screening were my highlights<33

Also,

 Spoiler

Some guy was doing one hell of a Gurren Lagann cosplay. As in, the actual Gurren-Lagann. And yes, that is one hot Yoko.

There were a TON of Kamina/Yoko/Simon cosplayers (and thrice as many Mikus), and (excluding Yoko) there were definitely some better ones in the con.

Though Rossiu was pretty unique.

 Ikkaku Bankai

Probably the best cosplay I saw.

 Gurren Lagann/Yokos xD

Pic me and my friend took with one, we look retarded, she doesn't -drools-

 Team Fortress

They kept running around, so it was hard to catch them XD

 Spoiler

Snake in a box!

 Crunchyroll cosplay contest

Alfonse won, even had the seal when he took off his helmet which was pretty cool.

 My favorite part, K-ON! gathering!!(Image heavy)

[SPOILER=Only freaking YuYu Hakusho people I saw =.= I'm sure there were more at the gathering lol]

 The two funniest pics I took.

Pedobear quality is bad, it was bright lol

So yas, I have a lot more pics, just gotta find em =.=

^ Did you go through the hall that connects the two buildings on Saturday/Sunday?

The Snake cosplayer set up a grave for himself over there, and went to the Exhibit hall to buy stuff. There were pieces of paper and pens on the floor for people to write things. Some guy drew a dildo, there were a bunch of "SNAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAKE"s, and much lulz.

Also, this is the stuff I ended up buying:

I DIDNT GET A PIC, but did you see the giant summoning rock (Not maple) pretty sure it was from WoW or something XD

Yeah, I did. God, that thing was so funny! On Sunday, the Street Fighter duo (Dhalsim and some girl whose name I don't remember) were trying to summon somebody from it, and some fat guy popped up. It was really hilarious!

Also, don't hate! Just because my Kallen poster was the last one doesn't mean you have to say yours is better! :p

EDIT: I spent ~$400 on all that stuff.

My friend got the best pic of it.. IN THE WORLD! lol He was ordering food at the food court in exhibit hall.. while inside the rock it was great.

I SAW THAT! I would had said hi if I knew you were there and what you looked like xD Wasn't the Dhalsim the guy who organizes the caramelldansen gatherings/trains? O_o

Actually, the person who organized the Caramelldansen trains was a girl with a boombox and her friends. I saw the beginning of the largest one near the registration place, and, an hour later, it ending at the same place. There must've been ~500 people in on that one!

This guy was talking about all that and he went as Dhalsim.

I wanted to join a train with my Nel friend =.=

Did you cosplay at all?

A few of my friends got to go, I really wanted to go but couldnt pictures look awesome though, lol! I'm going next time for damn sure!!

I saw this on ANN and lol'd too goddamn hard to not share it.

Unspoilered to guarantee maximum eye burnage.

Eh, not the worst Peach/SSB/Nintendo cosplays Ive seen =.=
They had a male peach and female bowser...

DISTURBING.

Every time I look into the eyes of Link there, I get the giggles. The Gaia bag seals the deal.

The gaia bag was useful, not as useful as the hentai bag I was carrying around, but useful! Don't hate.

I'm not hating on Gaia :< I joined in '05 and still hang around one little guild. It's just adding it to the picture and all the stereotypes that come with it...

Got any pictures of your Peach/Bowser combo? I wanna see =o

Did you cosplay at all?

Nah. I wanted to, but I had no time to make a costume.

Next year, I'm definitely cosplaying. I'm thinking Kyon, but that's too simple (basically, all you need is a uniform) and it's all based around how close my face looks to Kyon's face.

I'm going to stick with crossplaying as Mikoto until I find a better (if there is any) choice.

My friend was the one that took all the pics.. not me xD I barely have any. I was busy buying stuff, and being a pedobear to yoko's, mio's, and yui's =.=

Yesh<3

OH! sweet ok. Look for me, I'll be kamina two days, and kakashi the other two<3
