Ok then. With that aside, let's get to the main bit. Fellow Gamespot user FateStayNight and I attended AnimeFest 2007 which is an annual anime convention held at a certain place called the Reunion Tower. There were plenty of cosplayers, which surprised me because I didn't think that that many people actually do such a thing...in public, even if it is accepted in events like that.

Hello, Reunion Tower!
In the first seconds of the video you saw a long line. That line was the line to get your passes in order to get the the main dealer room and see screenings among other things. It took about 45 minutes to an hour to get through that thing which pissed me off because we were running a tight schedule as we had to attend a wedding the same day for a friend. After we got our passes we headed out to see what we could see.

Fate and myself in the Dealer Room...I look strange in that picture for some reason...
My favorite bit was the dealer room in which plenty of dealers had set up booths around a huge room. They were selling things like PVC figures to manga. Pretty much anything anime related, you could find it there. Personally I was looking for a Misuzu PVC, from Air TV, or a Shigure Asa PVC. Much to my dismay there was not a Misuzu PVC and the Shigure PVC's were much to expensive. I could find a better price on Ebay. So I went with a Saber PVC from the anime Fate Stay Night. Not surprisingly, FatestayNight also bought a Fate Stay Night PVC, but forgot to buy a Mitsuru from SMT: Persona 3, and didn't have enough money to buy a Shana PVC. I was also looking for a Death Note polo shirt but the only thing I could find was a Death Note tie,which I was planning to get but forgot to, and a Death Note T-shirt, which did look good, but it had Ryuk on it which I didn't want. There were also some bath Towels and pillows....but I'm sure you can understand why I didn't buy those.

Saber PVC galore!
Well, before we knew it, we had to get going because the wedding that had to be attended began at three. On the way back you can say we got lost because of Fate's poor ability to read MapQuest directions, but luckily I am an awesome driver and we were able to make it back with time to spare.

Yes, that is my real name on the tag...Crap, hope Light doesn't see that...
I enjoyed the event and wish I could have seen some panel discussions and stuff like that but I guess it is alright. As for news going on in life, I have been pretty busy but I have been able to keep up with most of my friend's blogs lately, but readjusting to my ****s(I hate when that word gets censored) is starting to beat me up a little bit. I should be fully adapted to school work pretty soon and hopefully I can start spending more time on GS.
Well thanks for reading. I hope this turns out to be one of my more interesting blogs, but for now, goodbye.
EDIT: It seems I am having problems with the images....
