San Diego Comic Con

Journal Entry: Mon Jul 19, 2010, 4:07 AM
Thursday - Cammy
Friday - Raiden
Saturday - Cammy or Selvaria
Sunday - Cammy or Selvaria

Klan is getting put on hold, again.  Comic Con isn't really the best con for it considering the heat and the fact that SDCC is better for gaming and comic cosplay than anime cosplay.  I'm pretty close to finishing it though, and I may have it done this week, so maybe I'll take it to a smaller gathering sometime.

I will be bringing a new version of Cammy along though, as well as the old Delta Red version.

The only plans I have for the con itself would be to go to the Kojima signing with a few friends and possibly attend a few comic art panels and Capcom panels.

I have such a love/hate relationship with Comic Con.  On one hand it was my first con and it's an amazing combination of media, but on the other hand you get some really rude attendees who aren't interested in nerd subculture and are there to gawk or to see TV show/movie previews.  It's generally not a very friendly environment for cosplayers because of the resulting lack of respect.  I'm really excited to see the cosplay though, because SDCC does bring in the best of the best.

Also, sorry for being so behind on replying to comments!

I want to go to Dragon Con so much! It's so far though, I don't think we could afford it.

I too, have the love/hate relationship with SDCC. But I'm going to see friends. So it's all good. *nod nod*

Hope I can see you there!

Hope to take a few pics with your Cammy (saw you at AX). I will be with a Gen, yeah that's right a Gen xD, Ibuki, and Makoto as I go as alternate Ryu from IV. We'll probably swing by the Capcom booth now and then which will be Thursday. And from there, at least for me, Wolverine on Friday and Ryu against on Saturday especially since Ono will run the Capcom panel around 1230 or so.

Wow. Thanks for sharing your thoughts on Comic Con. My boss has already deterred me from Comic con for the same reason. He said Hollywood has taken over and its not just a convention about the arts, comics, and animation anymore. It's used to advertise and now I see stars from Hollywood showing up on TV. Nothing annoys me more than anyone who spends a lot of money and goes to a convention and waits long hours in lines and then be disrespectful to anyone, not just the nerds. (Proud nerd here.) See yah at ALA! I'll let you in on a secret.

Since it will be winter time, I'll be going as Shippuden Sasuke again but wearing a Konoha Rain cloak with hood to stay warm and using an Anbu mask similar to Kabuto's. I'll sneak into some Naruto cosplay groups and make some friends (I'll be going alone this year) and then take off my mask and unveil my robe and say, "I've come to destroy Konoha!" My friends aren't as crazy about conventions as I am, I paid for 2 of their costumes from Cosplaymagic. They didn't know how fun it was to cosplay. They had a blast, some of them it's their first/first AX/cosplay and some its first/second cosplay/AX. I haven't been home since the expo because I'm running my mom's business in another state and my camera is at home with my costume. But Shippertrish has linked their picture that they took of my group. [link]

It's still a fun con if you know what you're going in for. It's not as fan-based as it used to be though.

Unfortunately the joke is lost on me as I don't follow Naruto. :/

It's impossible to follow every Anime, as new ones are constantly coming out. Long story short. Hidden Leaf village orders Uchiha Itachi to murder the entire Uchiha Clan to prevent a Hidden Leaf internal civil war. Itachi spares his younger brother, Sasuke (me). Sasuke trains hard to kill his brother but finds out his brother was ordered and that his brother sacrificed his family, his reputation, his Clan, to save the village from becoming vulnerable to a World War. Sasuke wants to take his revenge on the Hidden Leaf Village, the place of his birth. Anbu tend to wear masks and rain cloaks sometimes. I can use it as a gag to sneak into the Naruto groups as the enemy. XD
