Toronto Pearson International Airport
Waiting for the plane to board

The picture above... a bag fell out of one of the baggage handler's carts.

I thought it was funny cause it wasn't my bag.

Regional jets are cramped.

Arriving at Memphis Intl Airport

This wait is for the plane heading to Los Angeles

This guy is watching Rosario to Vampire out in the open

Saw a lot of uniformed guys traveling

Don't get that alot in Canada

Surrounded by Americans!

Finally the plane arrived

Moving forward... I landed in LAX and met sled.

Apparently his flight was delayed, tried to take the metro to zaki's place. Got lost. Went back to the airport and waited for me and zaki to arrive instead.

They both planned it though.

Place was packed at 9-10 PM

I can probably guess where this guy is heading

Traffic

Zaki was stuck somewhere

My camera sucks at night and low light areas so you will see blurry images

This place is Zaki's college I think

He went to an ATM machine and I took pictures

Eucalyptus trees everywhere

I wasn't expecting the place to be soo different. Well it was dry as I expected though.

Trash or Trask?

Oh yeah this is around Orange County I think?

Not quite Hollywood-style image

American flags and I dare say... Mexicans everywhere.

Other thing I didn't expect. No offense intended.

Went to Zaki's old house

This was the view from his yard

By the way this wasn't where we stayed for the night at his apartment. We just went to pick up a cooler. We are already on the way to the con at this point.

So after a fuck-long wait at LA area freeways... the convention center finally popped up and I barely managed to take a picture of this huge banner before we left the highway exit

Without the light pole

Can't pronounce Figueroa

At the pre-registered sign in booth

We arrived at the second day even though we paid for 4 days

Happy smiling people

Plenty of Hetalia fangirls

Toehoe

Eri Kitamura

Danny Choo

Rock Paper Scissors Japanese style for some figures

These two were soo cute together

Yes

Dolls

Outside Petree hall

I spent most of my time here... everyone else bailed

Inside the shuttle bus to the hotels

The Marriott where we stayed

The street was one way and we just jaywalked most of the time

Mice pantsu

Taking a break for now

A hundred or so to go

>>13297
it's easy, just say what you are but with an 'i' instead of an 'a' and then replace the 'ge' in eroge (which your ass is featured in by the lonely anime fags who you've let in it) with 'a'

>>13298
wow you had a preregristration for people to fuck you in the ass at the anime expo?

>>13300
your ass sure made them happy

>>13308
suprisingly, your ass gets more cock

>>13312

>>13336
suprised you were able to find those with how little time they spent covering your ass

>>13337
what a fascinating, relevant, and worthwhile post. i cannot wait for 100 more of these

More pictures of buildings

View from the window out of the room we stayed in

There were supposed to be mountains on the background but LA smog covered stuff up.

Thought it was gonna be hot, but it was only like 20 degrees Celsius (whats that in Fahrenheit?)

I only had one shot of vodka and orange juice

Everyone else shared 2 bottles of it and a jug of OJ

More LA buildings

Was on the way back to the shuttle bus to take us to the convention center

The one way Figueroa where we kept jaywalking

While looking for something to eat, we went to the nearby westin hotel to find a Subway restaurant and that was our lunch I think it was

Infront of the 2nd main entrance to the LACC.

Lots of these mexican ice cream sellers roaming the place. Didn't buy any though. Because we've been eating random assortment of overpriced street food, I had stomach aches and headaches the whole time.

Bad sideboob shot

I thought I nailed the angle but it didn't come out as planned

Friere?

Gigantic prinny from the nis america booth

Standing there

Then it noticed me...

We got matching shirts

Zaki and Happy weren't there so no shirt for them

JList booth

Japanese healthcare products

I don't know how the egg sized eggs work

Lots of hugging pillows and semi-nude posters

There were selling Higurashi and Umineko hard copies of the games

But they also gave like links to the english fan translations...

This was the booth I wanted to visit

No onw else knew what it was

Always the perfect cosplay for fat guys

A long ass line to see the author of Black Lagoon all the way outside

A live performance skit from the Indecent Otaku Show

They weren't that funny

The square was nice though

Then Danny Choo and the hosts started throwing away figures and shit

They had a Uesegi Kenshin figure to throw away and $100 black rock shooter figure

Then they made some girls hug Tager

They had red stains all over them after

That deadpool guy was everywhere

Had a fight with Red ranger, won, and got a bunch of girls.

The tents on the right, I bought a hotdog there...

Then one of the asian girl attendants came over and asked me about my camera. We got talking. She was nice. I went back again later in the day and she still recognized me.


But no one from the group was there to see, and even if I said that now... no one will believe me...

Staples center

Avatar cosplay in an anime convention?

Nothing beats the furries though.

Hot asian chick

Fat white CC

Snake in a box

Image limit yet?

As pointy as her nose

one of those small visual-kei hats I think and that mini arcade they had going for bored people

Why are the best cosplayers asians?

The expensive artbook and magazine booth i bought some stuff off.

They had a Kanojo x Kanojo x Kanojo artbook if you know what that is, but I was worried about customs so I didnt buy it.

Shame, my stuff weren't checked when I landed anyway.

I have 3 of these t-shirts

But I cant wear them outside...

Who gives a shit, I want to see pictures of Zaki and Sled

>>13399

you're not begging hard enough

I came for the panels, I stay for the robot figures

The Blazblue Continuum Shift booth

There was a huge gundam booth too

Most dating game booths brought their own artists who did comissions

Girls working on dating sims

The umineko/higurashi dvds

Latex suit instead of cotton then?

Im pretty sure this is a girl

But flat chest with an open jacket?

Yellow lines for crowd control during autograph sessions

Man reimu

Well im not sure if its a girl now

Long lines for the ATM machine

Saw this on the hotel's TV

Went to an eroge panel, and they brought in the artists who sang the songs and there was a concert and a rave of some sort

The rest of the picture from above is on my cellphone's card cause my camera died on me during the panel

This guy was roaming around and we all saw him plenty of times

The quiznos 6 inch sub was like $8...

Where's waldo?

Tifa bouncing on DDR

Zaki went on a dance and danced with a Taokaka or so he said

On the last day, Sled left and Happy left so me and zaki just roamed around. He bought cat ears (picture not included here) and we got hungry and went to this street kitchen selling REALLY tasty korean food. But it was expensive and the servings where small.

Back inside

Tom Bradley(?) building in LAX where I found wifi, macdonalds, a chinese/japanese restaurant, and even an ice cream stand. It was really comfortable there.

Nice, Spacious, and classy.

But overall I still think LAX is decrepit compared to Memphis or Cincinnati.

I had ramen before leaving~

I got to sit on the emergency exit
I get to bail first and there was plenty of leg space

Cincinnati Intl was very nice

Had the feel of a strip mall but with neat stores and few people since it was morning

And lastly, the shit I bought

I also had 3 posters including one signed by the author of Black Lagoon, and a poster I won at a raffle.

I also got the Hen Tie T-shirt, 3 mangagamer shirts, a Plenair shirt, and an Aksys Games shirt.

Haters please hate~

>>13441
disgaea 2 wat?

Have you never seen an airport before?

>>13318
If you look closely, you can see the top of my head in the 2nd row in front of the screen. Somewhere... Did you go to Hocchan's panel too? Shit was just "We're gonna show you the first ep of Toradora to waste time and ask these pre-prepared questions" compared to Kitamura Eri's "Hey! Can you do the voice of ____ with [this] line?"

Hadn't gone for three years so I didn't expect the significantly less number of booths in the exhibit hall. Hell, The artist gallery was about half that shit. Least I got to talk with the NIS bros about Ar Tonelico 3 and Atelier Totori.

>>13447

You were there?
And yeah I was on Yui Horie (right?) panel too.

I didn't really plan on meeting other people cause Sled, Zaki, and Happy were the only ones in the know about who's coming and stuff.

>>13448
Yea, I only went Friday though just to see Horie, Kitamura, and attend May'n and Nakajima's concert. I went with a friend who was cosplaying as Izaya. We split up half the time because we wanted to do other things.

>>13449

Was he the fat Izaya on the pictures here?
Or the one with the vending machine prop?

I think I saw like half a dozen...

>>13354 Thought it was gonna be hot, but it was only like 20 degrees Celsius (whats that in Fahrenheit?)

68°F

>>13450
Nah. He was pretty skinny and his hair was all messy. He couldn't make a crazy face either so he would just make some kind of mean face whenever someone took his picture. It was pretty hilarious really.

Yea, there was a shitload of Izaya and Shizuo. He didn't expect that.

>>13269
I thank you for contributing original content.

Mice! You missed the Touhou Gathering ;_;

I'll upload pics for you since you missed it.

After I downsize them. Stupid filesize limits.

That's it for now. Gotta lot of blurry shit.

god cosplaying as videogame characters at an anime con is so retarded

>>13475
Haters gonna hate

Fuck damn... how many more of you people were there that I didn't even know about?

We could have done something.

>>13476
retards gonna derp

Haters gotta hate, I was also at Anime Expo

Motherfuck...

>>13507

AXbrofist.

>>13269

Not that anyone cares or anything, but I found this kinda interesting and I just had to write about it since no one really uses this place anyway... Made you look

The booth/panel I was really keen on seeing (and saw I did) during AX 2010 had one of their artists pumping out character portraits for like $20-40 per A4 sized picture. Comes with an autograph too.

Apparently one japanese guy took one back to japan, sold it on Yahoo Auctions... and got nearly $400 for it from bidders...

Bought it for below $50... resold it for $300+

I have an autograph from that guy too haha, but Im never selling it...

>>13550
Fuck. Completely forgot that Miyata Sou was in the Mangagamer booth. Would've had them do a Kasumi picture as well. ;_;

Did you request what you wanted him to draw or was there already a pile on the table that you just bought and had him signed?

>>13552

No he was already drawing some, but they had fulfilled some requests as well. There was also another guy in there that works with him as an artist.

But what I did was ask him for an autograph on an artbook I brought in with me. Normally they don't do that they said, but they were glad to give an exception.

Now I didn't buy an autographed character portrait cause frankly I thought it was a rip.

But then again, I wanted some of the things he had on display but damn me for being canadian... I didn't have alot of American dollars with me because of the long ass lines on ATM machines.
