Wow very nice looking photos!
I especially loved that you took one of a character from on of my favorite game Valkyria Chronicles (The one that you labeled “Attention!”)

Maye- Right, it`s odd for me to venture into these places and be surrounded by fans. I find it all a bit weird, but also compelling. It`s cool people get into it so much.

Sarah- Thank you madam!

Janelane- Great insight, thanks. Sounds very odd to me, but am sure it can make for some great stories.

“The Full Metal Alchemist robot in close. Why does it have a unicorn’s horn?”

He’s not a robot, it’s a suit of armour & the little boy’s spirit is bound to it cause he lost his body.

The big bird hanging from the ceiling is from Phoenix, an Osamu Tezuka work. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phoenix_(manga)

It’s really interesting the way you saw the Anime fair, as you aren’t a fan per se. XD
As you were only an hour over there!

Probably there was an Osamu Tezuka restrospective or something because the panel behind Blackjack portrayed many of his works, as Atom/Astroboy is an Osamu Tezuka’s work.

I’ve never seen a male body pillow print, that was elightening.

Thanks for sharing your pics!

Awesome dude’s head is on fire Tornadoes because he’s too awesome for real life, ha ha ha. No, really.

Spider bird may actually be the mascot for the 2016 Olympics Miki- which has just freaked me out to the point of no return I think. Can I return from here? Hmm, only if they banish this foul beast back into the vile hole from which it batted its wing/arms.

Kelly- Oh, behave!

Totoro I can now agree is an amazing movie- took your advice Leongsoon and Miki and watched it with SY the other day. She of course has seen it 10+ times, but was happy to watch it again. I was laughing in delight a whole lot, repeating the lines, exultant with the final catbus ride. What a sweet movie. My favourite part? She falls on Tororo and he makes this yawning burbling sound that sounds nothing like ‘to to ro’, but Mei goes- ‘Totoro?’ Ha! Excellent.

Good job showing us what it is inside the show! By the way, if there’re any anime you should watch, make it be Doraemon and Totoro! It’s incredible, the ideas they come up with in these shows, and sometimes you’ll wonder why the real world couldn’t be more like in the shows!

The bird is a phoenix, from the anime “Phoenix” by legend Osamu Tezuka, who created Astro Boy.

Great pictures as always!!

Looks like it was fairly interesting Mike.

>>I donâ€™t know why theyâ€™re both going girl-girl, guy-guy, maybe we were just in that zone of the Fair.

Ha! laughed out loud when I read that, and saw the guy with the guy pillow. Guess it doesn’t matter which gender pillow the guy hugs, it’s pretty much a lose/lose situation for him…
