Colossal Con 2011, Success/Colossal Con 2012, An Upcomming Plan

Colossal Con 2011

____________________________________________________________________
OH. MY. GOD. Wow, that was incredible, SO incredible in fact, ladies and gentlemen, it's taken me a whole month to recover. *To explain my noticeable absence* So, let me explain the full details. I was dressed up as Grell Sutcliff (I barely got the costume home made in time!)

I went to 2011's Colossal Con held in Sandusky, Ohio on the 4th of June. This was my first time ever cosplaying and first time ever going to an Anime Convention. I took my trusty sidekick *go ahead, Rukia, kick me for calling you a trusty sidekick* AKA known on here as "Rukia" and we set out for an adventure of a life time. *She was Rukia too*

As soon as we arrived, we were grouped up to a Urahara cosplayer, very VERY nice to us in line! He really was Urahara from Bleach, he looked and sounded JUST like him! After we paid admission, we made our way through, being total geeks going "Hi Sebastian!" or "Hi Ulquiorra! We love you!" or whatever. I DID see a Sebastian cosplay in the Dealers' room, and Rukia dared me to say "Sebas-chan~!" to him like Grell did in the show. So I waved my hand and did it. He looked at me weirdly and then grinned when we started laughing.

Oh, the Dealers' room. The room filled with Anime EVERYTHING and an Otaku's dream world. Yep, I could've spent hours in there looking at swords, fans, kimono's and Anime related merchandise. A real metal sword for only 44$? EPIC. So we stayed in there for a LONG time, and I found a slip of paper for some other convention on the the hallway *TAKE NOTE OF THIS SLIP OF PAPER* and I went down one of the hallways that was passing Vic Mignongia's *that's a hard last name* Autographing station when I saw a famous man in the hallway.

For you see, the man who plays Kyoya from Ouran High School Host Club in English Dub, not to mention English Sebastian Michaleis (dunno how to spell) from Black Butler/Kuroshitsuji. I LOVE his voice, his name is J. Micheal Tatum, and i saw a video of him putting on a cosplayers boot. So I remember peoples faces well, next thing I know I was going down Colossal Con's hallway and I see him standing in the hallway, talking to somebody!

When he was done, I said "Are you J. Micheal Tatum?" and Rukia was confused at first, then he turned around and said "Ah! Grell-san! How are you today?" to me in Sebastian's voice! That's when Rukia realized that it was him and began to freak out as I said "Can I get an autograph?" he said "Sure!" and grabbed my back and took that little slip of paper from my hand and said "Can I borrow your back for a second?" Rukia was going nuts in the background *Well, you WERE Rukia!* and sighed that little slip of paper. I forgot a picture though. :( Oh well, there is next year!

Colossal Con 2012

So, next year we're going to Colossal Con 2012 for sure. Next year will be more planed out, and way more efficient than this years. I've already started planing my costume idea's and prices already! Next year for Colossal Con, I'm doing a duo cosplay with Rukia. We both decided we'll be Alice from Pandora Hearts. *SPOILER NOT REALLY ONE BUT STILL* Alice is a chain from Abyss *Our version of hell* and Alice is actually a twin. There is Alyss *The Will of Abyss, who controls Abyss* and Alice *B-Rabbit version* Here's the difference. Will of Abyss is white, while Alice B-rabbit is red and brown. Get it? Anyway, Rukia is being Will of Abyss/Alyss while I'll be Alice. so whenever someone says "Alice! Can we get a picture?" We'll reply "Which one?"

Anime Update on 6/10/11: Death Note

Yes. What all you Death Note fans have been waiting for...I finally have caught onto Death Note. It took long enough, I actually forced myself to read it, for my best friend was begging me to do it. Long story short, we didn't know what to cosplay as for next years Colossal Con (I WILL POST ON THAT IN A SEC) 2012, so pretty much, I wanted to be a Kioshi warrior from Avatar: The Last Airbender. My friend didn't know what it was, I told her to watch the show, and she said now. So I finally said "If you watch Avatar all the way through, I'll read Death Note." and so, here I am.

My opinions. Ok, I love Ryuuk. He's just so fricken awesome with his explanation on "Apples are a Shinigami's Alcohol and Drugs" And I just love his reactions.

Next up, what I think of the plot. Very interesting...until the part where L almost captures Light. THAT'S when everything gets screwy for me. I didn't get to the explanation YET, I'm aware, but before I knew there was one, I almost thought the story ended and I was seriously ticked. I didn't understand it after Light (SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER) forited the Death Note and is working on the investigation team searching for Kira when he IS KIRA!

Anyway, another cool character for me is Remu. He's so kind and generous towards Misa it's just ADORABLE! :D

Anime Review=150 Mark. Inuyasha

AWWWWW!!!! ALMOST OVER!? Yep, that's the case. There are only 167 episodes in the show. I'm sad now. MOVING ON. Pretty much, here is my review on the 150 mark.

SPOILER! Kikyo died...YAYZ. I thought she was better suited dead, so at least she can move on easily. But NO. you HAVE TO BRING HER BACK AGAIN! Ugh, I hated that part. I won't say what ep. but dude, Im furious. Also, Bankotsu and the others are gone again, and Hakuodoshi (Weird kid by the way) Are going crazy for the last sacred jewel shard. I guess this really is the end. All my opininons on things are still the same really. Let's see then!

Anime Review on 5/22/11 Inuyasha + HAPPY BIRTDHAY!

First of all, HAPPY BIRTHDAY DADDY! lol I never call him Daddy anymore, but still HAPPY BIRTHDAY! 50 is quite the milestone!

Now that that's out of the way, let's continue *ushers* I've recently reached my 100th episode of Inuyasha. Time for another review! Ok, let me start with my opinion on the series....I CAN"T STOP! It's just so creative and awesome, I can't stop watching! I never look at the episodes coming up next, I always just click and watch, then I really get suspense! Next, my top 3 characters?
1) Inuyasha
2) Sesshomaru
3) Rin
K! That's done, now for my favorite opening (There are so many...this is a new segment!) I have to say the first "Change the World" that will forever be in my heart. :) and my favorite ending? I love both endings in Season 2 "Dearest" and ending in season 4 "The song of Truth" but I think "Song of Truth" is one I will always watch. Now, as for my favorite episodes?
1) The Mystery of the New Moon and the Black Haired Inuyasha
2) Fateful Night in Tokejin pt I and II
3) Return to the Place Where we First Met
4) Gap Between the Ages
5) Totosai's Ridged Training
6) Phantom Showdown: The Thunder Brothers VS Tetsusaiga
7) Shippo Gets An Angry Challenge
8) The Three Spirits of the Monkey God
9)Jaken falls Ill
10) Battle Between the Rival Lovers
11) Two Hearts, One Mind
NOTE: These are NOT in order for favorites. But these episodes will forever be in my head so far. :D
Well, that's all I have to say for now! Bye!

Anime Review (50 episode point): Inuyasha 5/10/2011

Ah...actually I'm on episode 71. :) Moving along anyhow...*Waves hand* Half way there point. Only about....*counts with fingers* 136 episodes for me to conqure left...wait hold on. Wouldn't 167-71 be..OH! My bad, 96! OK. BACK ONTO THE TOPIC PEOPLE

What do I think of it so far? All I can say is that I'm hooked. I even wrote a fanfiction (three actually, one done, the other crack filled and the third is uncomplete) for Inuyasha! Who do I like? DEFFINATELY INUYASHA! Worst character if I was forced to pick? Kikyo...still! Naraku is even better than her! Weirdest character? Koga, he's just...well...strange? I dunno, need a better word for it. As for story line...I'm in the dark. I never know what the hells coming up next (YES I SWORE! FEAR MY WRATH)

All I have time for...stupid life. Anyhow, moving back to the ending, sorry I'll give a better post later. :D

Anime Update on 4/28/11: Death Note...A Possibility?

Well, here goes nothing. Death Note.

Yes, go on and say "Wait, you've never read Death Note?! You've got to read it!" I've never read it. I attempted it. ONCE. And all I could say was "Who would read this? It's so...indescribable..." And now, I am back to face it in the ring once more. Sure, I didn't like it, but I barely went into it. In my spare time torn away from Inyuasha every 72 minuets for a half hour (Yes, curse you MegaVideo for cutting me off for a half hour every 72 minuets!) I have found myself reading Inyuasha now. And when my public Library does not offer volumes 8, 9 and 1o, I am screwed. SO, a good pal of mine says to me "Hey! Alice! Read Death Note it's soooo good!" I at first ignored her, then later on I found myself picking up volumes 1 and 2 at the Library. SOOO now I'm trying to get over the fact I even picked it up and am now reading it.

Sure, I may not get into it that easily, so if you see me blathering about how awesome it is in the future, revert me back to this :) So, INYUASHA! Ohhh how could I even say in the past I wasn't interested in you! I"M SO SORRY! It's lifechaning people. LIFE. CHANGING. How do I like it so far? LOVE IT. I can't stop watching! Thank god it's got 170 episodes, a 56 volume manga, 4 movies AND another series! *Dies of over excitement* *Revives with Shikon Jewel* Ahhh I love you Inyuasha. Characters? Well, that's a long story.

My favorite so far has got to be Inyuasha. He may not be the most compassionate, but wow is he awesome! My second goes to Sesshomaru. For his strange and loving compassion shown towards that little human girl *SPOILER* :) THEN after that...I dunno. I DO have a most disliked character, and that goes to Kikyo. I HATE YOU KIKYO! WHY THE HECK DO YOU WANT INYUASHA"S LIFE?!!?!?!? DIE ALREADY! *Composes self* Ahem...sorry bout that :)

The Extrordinary Return of BelovedNight13 / Anime Update- Inyuasha and Black Cat

I'M BACK~! *Smiles* So how is everybody? Good? Good! I've been great, thanks for asking! Well, intro out of the way, I've been gone for WAY to long. Lemme get us back on track

Last time I left you hanging on my remake story and my newest anime "Le Chavliar De'on." turns out the anime was a bust. It didn't catch on as great as I thought :( though the remake on my story was awesome so far! A small road block at the time but still working on it!

As for the Anime Update...yes you heard it right. "Inyuasha" has finally come into a category of interest with me. "Inyuasha" was much more different than I had ever expected it to be. Everybody in the Anime world has GOT to have seen or heard about "Inyuasha" though I myself have never looked or watched it. I've recently started watching it (Today actually, Happy Easter by the way!) and lemme tell ya, it was SO much different than I expected! I thought Inyuasha was the GOOD guy! Not a half demon! Then what about the romance? I'm lost so far so I instantly got hooked on it. So far it's epic, so epic it's Epicness is huge in the first 3 episodes! I've got a new show to waist my life away on now.

Strangest yet is that it's the LONGEST and most extensive of any Anime I've ever seen. The shortest TV show I've seen was only 12 episodes, Loveless. The largest was "Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood" which was 64 episodes. "Inyuasha" was the largest ever now, reaching to a stagering 170 episodes! Let the rotting of flesh begin!

Well, it will be a LONG way away till I'm done, probably not until late July or something with how crazy my life is and how I constantly forget this, plus with the tests I need to take with overreactive teachers for NO REASON AT ALL *Ahem, Ahem L.A teacher, AHEM*. I'll TRY *Cross your fingers, those 2 people who read this!* to give you intervals on Inyuasha every 50 episodes. :)

MOVING ON!!! *I need to tell myself that a LOT before I lose thought* Another new Anime I came across was "Black Cat" another popular one that I've noticed but never watched. It's good so far, and the one man, what's-his-name, the hero in the show in the first episode that I can't name, his voice is exactly the same as *English voice* Guy Kurasawa from "Darker than BLACK"! It kinda annoyed me. "Black Cat" was VERY good, it was interesting in the first TV episode. I loved it! I'm gonna resort to it for entertainment now :D
