MCM expo

I went to mcm expo on the 26th-28th October, I went as two different versions of the popular character Asuka Langley soryu.

Friday I went as school uniform version :

And Saturday and Sunday, the racing queen version:

I wanted to do some film work there, but it was so busy, it was kind of imposable  hopefully the next event HYPERJAPAN I will be able to take more pictures of other people and make some questioner's to give out as its a much smaller event. 

some photos that where taken :

 I was Happy to see that me an my friend Taleah where still on the Neo magazine banner, We entered a competition last October to be featured in the Christmas calender last year, I was also dressed as Asuka then too but was wearing here plug suit witch has always been popular at events.  we where picked to be in the featured in the calender, but we where also chosen to be on the banner for last may expo, but we noticed we where also on the banner this October too.

Us on last years calender :

Last May :

And this October: 

Us last October looking back, my plug suit really needs a lot of work, the plug suit is a lot harder and more detailed then it looks, but we where rather popular at the time, as we have not seen anyone personally in the UK do the plug suit yet, its a difficult thing to do and pull off, it just dose not get done or done well very often. our plug suits are really a long way from perfect, and we defiantly want to re do them one year so there perfect. 



I also met Venus Angelic at the mcm expo she suddenly become popular this year via her youtube videos, I have been a subscriber of hers for the past few years, she's like Marmite you either lover her or hate her.

She also tock a picture of me and featured it in her blog http://www.venusangelic.com/2012/11/mcm-expo-october-2012-hatsune-miku.html

I was surprised she let me take a picture with, her there's been a lot of on-line drama about her and her mother bullying girls on line who kind of do the same things or share the same interests and goals. Well there was video posted this year, just after I went to HYPERJAPAN in February.
Basicly at hyperjapan there was the nico nico both, nico nico is an online streaming site, and sometimes they go to conventions all over the world and broadcast live online, and people at home can interact ask questions e.c.t, by typing. 
well I had gone other to the both just to get in the background, and the presenter was giving interviews to various people hanging by the stand, it was kind of crowded and lots of people wanted to go up, so the presenter Ryo was asking people to come up one after the other, and saying "ok you after this person" and such giving who ever was first or who ever was most popular on the stream to go up. so i was standing there for a while and once some people who where watching had noticed me, people started typing "asuka" and wanting me to go up, I waited patiently while other people where being interviewed as they had been there longer, i was unsure of going up at first, but I didn't really have much of a choice the viewers wanted to see me.

Kimonotime being interviewed (an on line j-pop dancer) : 

 so I was eventually asked to come up by Ryo because the amount of comments I was getting.. when Venus angelic and her mother came from the side both taping ryo on the side, and Venus jumping in in front of me for some time on the live stream.

At the time I wasn't really bothered about it, I thought that the presenter new she was a popular on line or something giving her permission over me to go up,  After the video of her doing this was posted online, and the whole online bullying thing with her mother on other girls such as kimontime, beckii crule and xiaorishu came out this video has gone up to over 53.000 views and everyone had called her fame hungry for stealing someone else's lime light and advertising her nico number, it turns out no one new who she was at the time there, she was just a normal person who should of really waited for her turn. some people are saying that because kimonotime was there being interviewed her mother most probably pushed her to promote her self. 

so when I met her at MCM expo, I was surprised that she let met take a photo with her, she said she remembered me from HYPERJAPAN, and she's probably read all the nasty comments on the video saying she should of waited, but she was ok with me, she seemed nice, her mother was not there at the time thou  she probably would not of let her, she did that to kimonotime at hyperjapan, kelsey (kimonotime) had asked for a photo and venus's mother basically pulled venus away, muttering something it there language, it appears her mother is the one coursing the problems. 

On that note, here's a lovely video by SneakyZebra, its nice to see someone in the uk doing some videograph at conventions here.
