I'd say it's been a busy weekend, but it really hasn't. Kirk and I had a good time, wandering from one event to the next, or spending hours in the mangalibrary. Some highlights were: watching YuGiOh Abridged with a lot of people late on Friday, attending a lecture entitled Nightmares 101 given by someone cosplaying Llyod, the brilliant Utena cosplay skit during the masquerade, finding a cheap Sebastian figurine, and cheap dvds of Kino's journey, being handed Code Geass doujinshi fresh from Japan by ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
rinzei, reading the Parasyte manga for the first time, getting some awesome Yondaime art commissions drawn, and attending some surprisingly interesting panels on translation and dubbing and voice acting.
On Saturday, I was a Shinsengumi.
And I felt very lonely until I ran into this person. We spotted each other, shouted, "Shinsengumi!" and high fived, which was the traditional shinsengumi greeting dontchaknow;)
I really need to get some hakama.
Sunday, I took an extra forty-five minutes and several pages of instructions and wore my yukata for the first time. I didn't have an obi board so I made one out of cardboard, which worked surprisingly well. Not that I tied the obi to Japanese standards, but it was okay for a first try.
These were a few of my favourite costumes seen this weekend. I have a special love for the Rorschach.

Mmm, yeah. I don't usually ask people to pose for me for photos, but I had to shout down that Rorschach for a pose:)
