STGCC Event Photos

Because I didn’t managed to squeeze the event pictures into any of the previous post, I decided to give it an entry by itself.

2 weeks too late but immerse yourself in the hype of the event with the pictures below D!

The Neo Tokyo Project, STGCC Cosplayers Tribute Video

Remember what I said previously about cosplaying at STGCC to join a project? It’s actually a Cosplayer motion video by The Neo Tokyo Project.

“ We collected a chunk of footage at STGCC this year, and after a grueling editorial process, we’ve finally pieced together a tribute video of the event that’s dedicated to all things cosplay.

I’d like to thank everyone who had a hand in making this, our first of hopefully many convention videos, a success.

This one’s for you, cosplay fans and cosplay friends. Enjoy!

Pop over to their blog to show your support ^_^!

STGCC 2011, Kipi moment

*Edited with video*

I saved the best for the last. The biggest reason why I spent $10 good dollars for entrance ticket at 4pm was to get a chance to meet Kipi !

After our accidental meeting on Saturday, it sparked a hope of possibly meeting her again the next day. So, like all the other foreign guests, I decided to get her a souvenir. (My theory: If I don’t think I’ll get a chance to meet the guest, it would be pointless for me to get them a souvenir )

Last year I got Kaname a bottle of Kaya spread and the year before Bakwas and mini fried Shrimp rolls. Alodia got a small Merlion plushie keychain with postcards. Angela, the other AFARCC and Animax Halloween party participants all got a Singapore keychain. Maria and I also gave Takasou and Darknight a box of Mooncakes. Aira is the only one I forgot =x

(.... Haha I didn't realise I gave out so much stuffs OoO; )

Anyway, i gave Kipi these. Mini roasted pig Mooncakes with lotus paste filling. After reading her interview about the fruit jam, I'm now afraid she might not eat this at all =.=|||||||

Insanely blur picture of the fans mobbing around the stage area.

Cut the story short, after the Cosplay competition ended, like all the other hopeful fans, I gathered around the stage fence for a chance to meet her.

Remember what I said about cosplaying to meet Kipi xD? My strategy worked *coughschemingcough* and she squealed when she saw my Haruhi cosplay ( Kudos to Fandom yeahs! ) xD

I requested for her to sign my brochure and after that I gave her the Omiyage. She then thanked me in a spontaneously cute manner and proceed to grab my digital camera for a picture together *score points*.

Don't believe? I have it on, guess what? VIDEO!!!!

I must admit, I didn’t start off as a Kipi fan. But this experience have definitely been positive and Kipi, according to every single person who have met her, is adorably nice and hard to hate.

Which reaffirmed a thought I have about life. No matter how far you get in life, never forget your humility. People don’t respect talent, they respect someone who respects them.

Inuran took a polaroid with her!

And thus I end my perfect STGCC experience. Peace out!

STGCC Day 2 Cosplay Photo Pimps

STGCC Day 2 without the clash of the Natsu Matsuri by the Japanese school, sees a significantly higher crowd turnout.
I apologise for the lack of photographs even though there are a lot more cosplayers on sunday. Too much time was taken up to pose for other other people's camera x.x ;;

This is one of the reason why I pretty much stopped cosplaying at events. But I wanted to be part of The Neo Tokyo Project's Photo documentary and wanted to meet Kipi in my costume so I dug up my horribly overused Suzumiya Cosplay ^^;

Decide to try another way of presenting event pictures. Click on the thumbnail to see the full picture.

What do you think about the new thumbnail format? comment and let me know Open-mouthed smile!
