animania 2005

During my first weekend of gabriel i went with tim and bec to animania festival in town hall. Was so good. I am definitely a fan but i think that with every thing you have a interest for it is always disturbing to meet people that are mroe obsessed than you. The people dressed for cosplay are fanatics. They if this was a islamic state would be the ones blowingthemselves up. But theyre not and we all just love a good animation. They do however find their favorite most compatible characters and dress up as them as well as acting out the major actions.

There were a few people that were insanely annoying over acting the characters which i believe they probably thing they think they are. Then there are the fanatical groups that meet up with other fanatics and dress as a group. One group dressed and matching couples from every final fantasy from 6-11 and all danced out the dance they do in FF8. Lame me thinks but at the same time cool. Im one of them weirdos but i just dont go that far.

I also invested in the first parts of the novels 'blade of the immortal' and 'domu'. I also got the collection of works by yoshitaka amano. great artist. we also watched a anime ive never seen being 'princess tutu' about a princess who turns into a duck when she quacks. crazy.

after animania tim and bec came over and i cooked them vegitarian noodle teriaki stir fry. a new dish for me and n.b. i stufed up the rice coz the flame went out. :( we then went over to adam and trents new house for a few drinks and to meet his new flat mates. they were pretty cool. had a good night.

cheers

n.b. i love anime
