My Trip to Anime Detour 2008.

[JHawkNH]

I deiced to go to Anime Detour 2008 as Ginji from GetBackers. The day started pretty well, I was ready to go an hour before I needed to so I was feeling no stress. (Unlike previous year where I was finishing my cosplay the day of the convention.) All I had to do was put on the vest that I had spent twenty hours and color my hair with colored hairspray. Things didn’t go as planned…


Green is a good color, but the problem is Ginji’s hair is yellow and so was the hair spray. It turned green when it hit my hair, go figure. The only choice I had was to just go with green hair and hope to fix the problem the next day.

So I arrived at Anime Detour 2008 green hair and all. The line to register wasn’t to bad, ONLY OVER AN HOUR WAIT! After I was finally registered I finally got down to the business of what I wanted to do at AD 2008, get as many pictures of cosplayers as possible. And now for your enjoyment, my pics…

Yep, I finally learned how to hold a digital camera steady.

I am working on more of the pics today. Expect them sometime tonight.

I think you can buy the rod from amazon.co.jp but the offer is aimed at children so it's a little small as you can see

The sign reads "Cosplay First-Aid Station". I think they took the sign to literally.
