ANYC Saturday.

I was near the front of the line for the CatChu meet and greet, so Yabu-chan saw me when she walked out, and she seemed so happy when she did. And she seemed so excited when it was my turn to meet her 🥹. She liked my guitar prop and we compared hair buns lol. Meet all three of the CatChu seiyuu was a magical experience, they really do shine in an amazing way.

Huh it turns out that doing two cons in two different cities in one weekend is kinda tiring :4504_aqua_laugh:

Worth it

#AnimeCon #AnimeCons #AnimeConvention #AnimeConventions #Convention

In a week, doing both AnimeNYC and PopCult, in spite of those being in two different cities :4504_aqua_laugh: Hooray for Greyhound. (If Amtrak ran at more times, in particular more late night/early morning routes, or if there was a high speed rail option, I'd do that... But nope, a bus it is :ferndisgust: .)

Hoping to meet CatChu on Saturday of ANYC. (Really, just going to CatChu events is my main priority there. It's do all the CatChu things, and bounce when there's no more Cats to Chu.)

And performing in the Idol Showcase on Sunday of PopCult with Sora Idols as Guilty Kiss :mmikudab: Gonna be hype!

I'm doing this for Flame Con on Sunday. (I also decided this yesterday #ConCrunch :4504_aqua_laugh: ).

(Flame Con does ban gun props in general, but I have an absolutely hilarious water gun to take pictures with at home.)

I am looking forward to checking out Flame Con, it sounds like a very comfy and inclusive place. :nnezukolove56: One thing I like about cons in general is that they can often provide a safe space for people to comfortably be themselves. A con which puts that goal front and center seems like a great idea :mexcitedmiku:

Id0l Jam is happening in September in Somerville! :mexcitedmiku:

After there was some issue with the venue for the summer, Metam0re is now hosting Autumn Id0l Jam on September 29 at Arts at the Armory in Somerville. A day of Idol Showcases, singing, cosplay, and other idol and anime related stuff. (And now conveniently located in my city, no more needing to take the commuter rail :TamakoLaugh: .)

More info, and applications for performances and for vending space (I think they're especially looking for more artists to vend, anyone who's got some nerdy stuff to sell): https://autumnid0ljam.carrd.co/

Gonna try to hit up the Jujutsu Kaisen meetup on Friday and the retro anime meetup on Saturday. (And predictably the idol and Love Live meetups on Sunday :TamakoLaugh: .)

Excited to do little devil Hanayo, putting her together has been fun. 😈 (Me: I wanna put some effort into a non-Yohane cosplay. Also me: Does the little devil set.)

Some pictures from the Anime Boston Friday Love Live photoshoot. :mexcitedmiku: I did Yohane's outfit from Genjitsu no Yohane again this year; it's been about a year since I started cosplaying her, and this outfit is as fun as ever. (Needs some upgrading though... Plans for the summer :akko_wink: .)

Photos due to YLD Photography.

Coming out of post-con hibernation for a bit to start making posts. (Also good morning to the EDT time zone. :4504_aqua_laugh: )

Anime Boston was a lot of fun! It's been 10 years since I started going to AB, and the con still holds a special place in my heart. Last year was the first time I cosplayed Yohane, which has led to a year of fun and happiness as I've met so many great people in the local cosplay and idol communities. This year, I did way more with cosplay than ever before, and while I'm really eager to improve a lot of things, I'm also pretty proud of what I've done (and proud of the fact that I'm now dissatisfied with things that are far better than my best from a year ago.)

Some event highlights for me:

-The Queen Bee concert on Friday. Avu-chan is an incredibly talented vocalist, and this comes through even better live :mexcitedmiku:

-The idol showcase. Every group really showed their stuff. So many incredible performances, I really love watching and cheering for all the groups here.

-An excellent panel on plus-sized cosplay, with both broader perspectives on inclusivity and some great practical tips.

First cosplay pic post, I was gonna be Maki for day 0 but I was late coming out of work and forgot my wig. :TamakoLaugh: Still took a pic with it on back home though.

Metam0re is looking for vendors/artists for Summer Id0l Jam 2024, to be held on July 27th in Framingham, MA. It's a free entry single day idol-themed con-type event, mainly featuring idol showcases (plural!!! :mexcitedmiku: ), singing, and a cosplay contest. Last year's was easily one of the most fun events of the year. They're looking to grow it out a lot this year, in one way by having a market area for vendors. (Because we clearly need another way to spend money on merch. The Miku pin I bought at the artist alley last weekend was a need, it was Miku day! :leafeonmoney: ) Figure I should post about it here since word tends to spread mainly on instagram, but there are a decent number of fanartists and folks in the Northeast US/Boston-area specifically on Fedi!

Some pics from the last day of AAC. Yohane meets Miku, and gets a piano lesson from Riko.

Another Anime Con was a lot of fun! Got to hang around today with some friends today to wrap up the con.

Highlight for me was of course my first time performing in an idol showcase. :mexcitedmiku: And getting to share some excitement for Genjitsu no Yohane by doing Forever U & I (from the penultimate episode). It was really fun putting together the cosplay and figuring out the choreography from the episode, which is all I had to go on since it hasn't been performed live yet. :TamakoLaugh: (I'm actually really interested to see the choreo that Aikyan will use in the Yohane Live; there are a lot of cutaways in the anime MV that I had to fill in, and which will probably be filled in differently by Aikyan. :akko_excited: )

And all the other performances were all so good. :akko_listen: I really love the idol community around here; everyone's so good at performing, in addition to being so supportive and full of positive energy.

An instagram story with part of my performance (I'll post full video later when I have the official video or a friend's): https://www.instagram.com/stories/cavoritelizard/3219339293166979068/

I'll be performing in the Idol Showcase at Another Anime Con next week! :mexcitedmiku: First time doing a dance routine, which has been a tough learning curve. (Also, I think I've found the one thing that makes me as uncomfortable as listening to recordings of myself singing: Watching recordings of myself dancing. :neocat_sweat: ) But I think I've improved a lot, even if I'm by no means good at this yet. Not posting the song/cosplay online yet, making it a small surprise for next Saturday. :akko_wink:

Got a tentative cosplay lineup that I might change around. I should have the Casual (cool R card) outfit and the idol showcase outfit done by next weekend (#ConCrunch again... :blobfoxlaughsweat: ) Of course, gonna be Yohane all weekend. I've got several other characters/outfits lined up, but they'll have to wait. :TamakoLaugh:
