Yesterday was a blast! I can’t
help but think that each day I spent with Kim it’s always a day well-spent full
of wonderful memories but I know it’s too soon to assume that after all we’ve
only hang out twice…still it’s a great thing to look back whenever I’m feeling
lonely :)
My very first anime event, otaku
expo which I attended together with Kim and his easy to get along with classmate
Niel was all it took to enjoy the event despite the fact that it was just the
three of us. Anime Quiz Bee,
Merchandise, Jpop and Cosplay made wonders that day XD…
There’s this quiz bee entitled
“HU U” wherein participants need to identify the name, title of the anime and
the seiyuu of the anime character that will be flashed on the screen. The game made me realized two things; one is
how outdated and old school I am, geez I barely kept up with my two
companions. Honestly, I’m not very
familiar with most of the characters…I felt pathetic! Another thing I realized
is unknowingly I’ve abandoned and forgot what it takes to be an “Otaku” it’s
like my old self being a diehard fan of anime was gone. I find difficulty in remembering all the
facts, everything about a certain anime… to make it short, I CAN’T RELATE!!! and
Evil Kim never fails to tease me, it adds up to the shame I’m feeling if he
only knew. The heck > <
Every anime lovers would want any
piece of tangible anime related stuff they could collect (e.g. shirts, posters,
mugs, figurines, pins, keychains and a whole lot more) well who wouldn’t? You’re happy just seeing this stuff in your
closet, there’s a pride in it that through buying you were able to show how
much you love that specific anime.
Collectibles…hmmm… not now > o < haha I don’t have budget for that
just yet. My heart was torn into pieces
upon seeing RYOMA ECHIZEN figure, feeling helpless ‘coz all I can do was stare
at it huhu. Maybe someday, I’ll get my
hands in it HAHAHA
Another thing that made me
realized how much I changed is when I deserted JPOP and succumbs to KPOP. I felt bad!
I used to memorized and sing out loud each anime songs I loved that I
also erased western songs to make room for more Japanese songs… but now, KPOP
take over my phone L. Recently One Ok Rock is the only thing that
connects me to Jpop, I deleted all anime songs before shocks! Probably one of
the biggest mistakes I’ve ever done.
During battle of the bands, there’s this band who sang “Driving Myself”
Prince of Tennis’ ending song I got so excited and even said “finally!
Something I can enjoy.” Until the vocalist open his mouth and no lyrics comes
out, =_=’ seriously? He did not memorize the lyrics? Disappointed! HAHA well I can give the band
an A for the effort of playing it, ghad hindi lang pala ako ang nagmamahal at
fan na fan ng POT >///<.
What’s an anime event without
cosplay? One of the things I really look
forward to whenever I heard of an event.
Seeing cuties dressed in maid costumes with makeup that emphasized their
Japanese-like features, extravagant mecha costumes and of course pretty boys
who made no effort with their costumes, their looks was enough to make girls
squeal. There were also those that look
as if “napadaan lang” and Kim can’t help but voiced out his [rude/offensive]
comments, what to expect with that guy? He can’t possible hide his obvious
dislike for something HAHA, bad! XD But when he appreciate it, aba! Expect that
he’ll turn his gaze for a moment longer than what is required, like with the
girl who portrays a character from an online game monster something… >3<
but he refuse to take a photo with the ones he like unlike me and Niel haha we
approach shamelessly those cosplayers to have a shot with us. For me it will serve as my very own souvenir
from that memorable event.
Yesterday’s experience awaken my
love for anime, I know I’ve wasted great amount of time on some trashy stuffs
but anime was still there…waiting for me to return giving me a sense of comfort
I only knew during my childhood days. I
will always love anime regardless of my age ^_____^
