Stuff, and Japan Expo

[lucathia]

Purchased some stuff yesterday. Now to wait for them to come to me. *rubs hands gleefully* Bought myself the the 9th LSK bundle, the extra volume of the Human Doll Contract verse (Kiyutsuna pointed out that the golden haired guy is most likely Grisia klajsdfla;sdjf;a; I didn't even notice), 1/2 Prince manhua volume 14 (I couldn't tell who the characters on the cover were, but most likely Winter Triumph and Nan Gong Zui? ...You know what, I still have no clue), and more volumes of Detective Conan, haha... Only Japanese manga I buy the Taiwanese version of now, since my parents also read it! Otherwise, all my other manga, I usually buy in Japanese now.

I'm really curious about the Detective Conan light novels. I wonder if they're any good. :3; Tempting...

Parallelsfic works are live! \o\ I have a total of one fic in the collection this time, and I am not very anonymous, hahaha. I received a lovely Haikyuu fic~. Reveals are on the 22nd!

Next weekend is Japan Expo! It's the first time the convention will be held around here. I'm super excited because there are some great guests attending. I'm especially interested in Kozaki Yusuke who did character designs for Fire Emblem Awakening and Iwadare Noriyuki who did music for Ace Attorney, Lunar, and Grandia~. I'm so going to bust out my FE:A Henry cosplay and my Maya cosplay. XD; Hopefully the gatherings for the two series are on different days! Must bring some stuff to get signed~

If you don't mind me asking, what is Human Doll Contract? :O

[lucathia]

Human Doll Contract is the name of the first volume in a new series Yu Wo is writing. The series is more accurately titled "Illusion, Virtuality, Reality" and this current volume is a sidestory called Book Writer. Or perhaps, "the Book Writes the Author"... Hm...

The premise of the series is that people have the power to use their imagination to wish dolls into life. One of the characters is a female author called Yu Shu who has two dolls living with her, a butler and a blond haired man. Yu Shu seems very obviously based on Yu Wo herself, and the butler is Charles from No Hero while the blond haired man, based on the picture of this new volume, seems to be Grisia from the Legend of Sun Knight. The story otherwise doesn't have anything to do with the other series~, as the characters are not the actual characters from those series.

Still, I can't wait to see what this doll version of Grisia will be like, haha.

Yaaay I'll see you there! I think since I don't have any *real* plans I'll go to all the guest panels and signings LOL so I will join you!!

When are you free to cosplay Shin Tenipuri? ^^ Since I have no plans, I am good any time/day.

[lucathia]

Awesomeness~.

I'm not sure what the schedule is like yet! Do they have a schedule up? *goes to check* Noooo, they don't... I'm taking a wild guess that Saturday will be full of events, though I'm hoping the guests I want to see will be spread out. So... possibly Friday or Sunday? I hope they have a schedule up soon.

[lucathia]

The schedule is out! Fire Emblem gathering is Friday and Phoenix Wright is Saturday, so I will be cosplaying those series respectively on those days! Sunday would be good for me for Shin Tenipuri!

Okay! We may only be able to meet for breakfast though ^^;; since we tend to leave around noon to return to LA. I might try to hit the last Idaware concert on Sunday if the first two are good (I love composers performing their music, and it's Phoenix Wright!) ~ I have to see what the other carpoolers want to do.

[lucathia]

Awww, that's right, you'll have to be making your way back on Sunday. Hm, I'll try to make it to breakfast then... though I usually take a long time to get to cons.

I do hope to go to the concert~.

XD; We will probably also wear it on another day, if you want to change and wear it with us on Friday or Saturday (you can always use our hotel room :D) ~ we only have a few cosplays we're bringing.
