Desucon... The first best con ever!

So... Little while ago, there was the annual Desucon in Lahti. I'm not explaining what it is, google it if you're interested XD

Usually, the conventions where I go end up badly, or otherwise go so badly that I only want to cry at the end, and nothing good stays in mind from the event.

This time, however, was different. Reasons being many. I put them under own headers.

Firstly

The Cosplay

I worked really hard for this cosplay and though I messed up with my wig and wigsock (?), it looked pretty good too.


So this is my cosplay. Not perfect, but the best I have made xD So the character is Kasukabe You from series "Mondaiji tachi ga Isekai kara Kuru soudesuyo?" Below is a picture of her.


Yeah, not perfect.... But it was comfortable enough to move about and I didn't have the urge to change into normal clothing as with Mio in the first Frostbite. But that goddamn wig kept rising all the time and in the end I got so annoyed with it, that I simply took it off.

The Loot from Desucon

Other best thing where the loot I bought from there.


 Hope                                              &                                              Serah
These two figures are the best ~ I bought them together with my friend Veera. The package had Serah, Lightning, Hope and Sazh, but since I only wanted Hope and she wanted Lightning, we agreed to buy it together. So I got these two and Veera got Lightning and Sazh. It cost 35 euros so we divided it as 17,50 per head.

Ramune - strawberry soda ~
I bought these again, together with Veera xD Since it was 12 euros four bottles of Ramune, and both wanted it, so we divided them. I only use this picture as reference. I got one strawberry and the other one was orange. Quite good actually. You'd think that orange soda would taste like Jaffa or Fanta, but this didn't. I wonder why.

Supposedly silk fan on bamboo...
... I noticed this on one table. It wasn't exactly cheap, but I couldn't help myself because it was so pretty. And after I had bought it, I succumbed to the fact that apparently I collect fans. So... Yeah. No reason whatsoever. But what caught me in that table was another type of fan which had curvy frame instead of straight one like this one that I bought. But I just had to buy this when I noticed it and only afterwards understood that I was SUPPOSED to buy the one with curly frame. Oh well, maybe from next con. (BTW, it was 10 €)


I nearly forgot this. Of course, I bought the newest Black Butler (Kuroshitsuji) too. Since I'm actively collecting it :)


This was the last thing I bought from there.  And I wasn't supposed to buy this... It was bought on impulse. I was, again, supposed to, buy Attack on Titan 1 book, but OF COURSE they didn't have them. So I didn't have any manga to buy then. I was at first planning to buy Romeo x Juliet, but I saw this. And, I love this series. So without further ado, I bought it. And realized that it hasn't been on stores for long. Maybe few months. And I got it immediately on time. So now I'm collecting this manga :D

All in all, I like the things I bought from there :)


Meetings and Company and The Late Night Animecompetition

This was the biggest thing. Seriously. I wasn't alone almost at all during this convention. Which ultimately made it the best con ever. I met all these sweet persons with whom I always talk in Twitter. I met so many I'm not sure I remember everyone :'D So this is common to all who I met: Thank you so very much ♥ You saved my con and made my day as good as it was. Thank you ~

Above that, Absolutely the biggest hugs go to Essi, Anni, Veera and Milla ;A; First of all, Veera and Milla nicely spent time with me and we had fun with my camera. Not to forget that photosession :'''D First time someone said to my face that I don't look happy when being taking photo at. Sorry for ruining them.

But yeah. Anni was an angel. I met with her, and stayed with her and lots of other persons too who I knew from Twitter. And it was the first time ever I went to eat with such a big group (there was like, 7 of us :'D hesburger must have liked). And this party had this Yata and Mikoto who were so cool and cute that I nearly couldn't handle it :'D (it was compliment!) But Anni first hand almost made sure that I wasn't alone. (perhaps she didn't, she was so friendly it felt like it).

And Essi was the second angel. We had signed up for the late night anime competition, where you saw small pieces of bigger photos and had to guess who the character was and from what series (damn those bishounen). I'll write more about it later.

I was sitting with Anni and the rest when Essi came with Sanna (they cosplayed Oshitari Yuushi and Mukahi Gakuto from Prince of Tennis ;A;) and spent time with them, not to forget Kati who nicely told us something about the competition (as she was one of those who kept it.) And she let me see her BJD doll (I think it was BJD XD) which was soooo cute that I started to want (again) one for myself too.

Meeting and being that competition with Essi was the best xD I have talked to her most in twitter so it was so much fun to finally see her in person and spend time with her.

And about that competition.... Curse them. We got lead at first, but then there was all these GIRLS, and not a single guy (not to mention those.... old guys) and we didn't get those bishounen. Argh >^<

In the end, we ran out of time, and they had to cut it shorter, and of course after that came characters with glasses and those goddamn school uniforms! (I love them and pay them most attention). Dammit!

My parents came to pick me up and they almost ran out of patience while waiting for me. I went to sleep at 3 AM. (incidentally, I did that yesterday too ;D)

The Sunday was calmer, and I didn't meet with people that much. I only met one of my friend at the ending ceremony and went home with her as her mother gave me a lift.

But Sunday was mainly the day when I went to different panels. I forced myself up before the con begin again, since Essi was keeping a panel from sports series and I wanted to go there. Lots of Prince of Tennis, and the best, Kenya and Shiraishi playing ;A; I nearly started crying. Especially at Shiraishi's ecstasy shout.
She introduced few series with few of them actually being interesting (and the Dear Boys op still rings in my head though I haven't listened it after it!)

Her panel went well, though I ran out little earlier as I wanted to get that bishie panel (which was the best! So hot things in there :'''''DDD)

What have I forgotten... Quite a bit. But this post keeps getting longer, so I cut it out now :'D Nothing personnal if I forgot something.

Oh! Desucon's theme song was the best :D And it was big surprise to suddenly see Aki Hata in the stage and the fact that she sang the theme herself for us ♥ Come to think of it, I didn't see Akemi Okamura even once. She was late at the opening ceremony and had already left when the ending ceremony came.

And Chottochoco's dance perfomance was the loveliest as always ♥ though those yukata's didn't seem to stay on :D

Something like this. Thanks again for everyone I saw in Desucon (and thanks for that tasty strawberry cake ♥)

 Sorry for all the typos you find :')
