A New Era of UFO Catchers is Born

This was a interesting video to watch and something I want to try out. It’s ingenious, you still have the basic catching and prize principal but you throw in a robot, how cool is that? But in my opinion, for about half the video length it looked like the robot seemed to want some bunny action if you catch my drift. It would be awesome if this type of UFO Catcher came to the local arcade, but I doubt it will be anytime soon as we’re not too big on UFO Catchers here compared to Japan.

Wrong…Just Wrong…..

Youtube video removed.

I am a huge fan of Gundam, and Gundam Wing was the first Gundam anime I ever watched. So when someone decides to make Wing Zero from Gundam Wing Endless Waltz do the YMCA I feel a huge injustice. The sanctity that is gundam is ruined, the other dances I didn’t mind but the YMCA. If you know what demographic really likes this song you should understand. All thats missing is the rest of the gundam gang to join in the YMCA. On the more positive side this was a pretty well made vid and everything looks almost flawless. Wish they chose a better song though if they wanted to do this. Brought to you from Japan Sugoi.

Cosplay….Cosplay…..COSPLAY!!!

WOOOOOT. Kawaii Kon has been over for a week now and I will miss it until next year but until then here are some cosplayers that came over during the Kon and I will present you with some of their pictures.

There were a ton of cosplayers this year, unfortunately I could not capture many due to work for the Kon. More next year.

L and Light hanging around, I actually saw a few of these duo’s around. Next year it will be Near, Light, and L.

O speak of the devil (reference to Light). Hear they are, I like the red eyes effect on the Light character but I don’t know if that was the camera or intentional.

Here’s Misa Misa to complete the main cast, very cute ^-^

I thought this was pretty sugoi, a Wii Remote

Can’t forget the Volcan 300, I love Zatch Bell, maybe I will do a review of it someday

Everyone needs the ANBU Black Ops to watch out for their con.

Who says it has to be anime related, these Star War characters were awesome to see, too bad there was no Darth Vadar as that would complete the set. If Danny Choo sees this , come down to Kawaii Kon next year with your Darth Vadar outfit to complete the set please, you will definitely enjoy the Kon, your men are ready for you ^-^.


Grimjaw from Bleach, awesome, awesome to the max

The infamous boxkat

A couple Kiskue’s and their buddy boxy?

I believe this is Rydia from FF4, she won best in show for our cosplay contest

A group of cosplayers, I like the pikachu, very kawaii

I’m not quite sure for these characters, if anyone knows who they are please comment as that would be really helpful

Rorschach (thanks to Gashapons)

Final Fantasy Agito XIII (thanks to Tomoyo)

still unknown…

As with any con, you will have your fights. Let’s hope it ended peacefully, think of the damage they would cause.


Drum Roll Please…dumm, dumm, dumm…it’s the VIC. He does the voice acting for many animes, his most famous role is for the English version of Edward Elric from Full Metal Alchemist. Vic is tall so not exactly comparable to Ed, but Vic is very cool to be around with. He even had dinner with the local Mini Skirt Army down here, very cool of him to do. His appearance probably brought a lot of attendees down to visit and he never disappoints.

Here’s a few images from the artist alley. The first being a paper which everyone could draw on. Might find a few artists becoming “famous” manga/anime artists later, never know.


Everyone’s favorite, Domo-kun, chasing down another helpless kitty.

Yaoi…

And not cosplay but…the local gundam store showing off their gundams.

Lucky Star Dance Gundam Edition

Youtube video removed.

Well somebody went out and decided to do a gundam version of the Lucky Star anime, probably the same one who did the Eva Version, I’m guessing. Well enjoy as this is much nicer on the eyes than my previous post.
