rkoldI left on Friday to go to Japan but because of time changes I didn't arrive until late Saturday. I managed to get my upgrade to Business class to go through from the NY to SFO part of the trip and discovered the new personal DVD type players one gets. This gave me a chance to finally see the Transformer movie. There wasn't nearly enough time spent on the Transformers in it. I also saw Mister Magoriums Magical Emporium, a very sad at times film, where I think Mister Magorium spent too much time with Clow Reed at times. Both flights were completely packed which was not bad in business class but sucked in Economy Plus to Tokyo. Ah well.
For dinner on Saturday I met Eleniel on DoA. She was very nice but we couldn't find the restaurant I wanted to go to Nakano. I was also suffering from some pretty bad jetlag. In fact the jetlag was so bad I'm not even sure where we did end up eating! ^_^;
Sunday was the Zenkoku for Geass, the actual reason I was going to Japan at this time lol I got there a bit later than I would have liked so there were about 200 people in front of me and sadly comic cities don't ever have cosplayers. However nearly every single circle was doing sketches and I got a sketch from my all time favorite circle Kashi. I've loved their art work since I discovered them in 2002 doing AsuKira books for Gundam Seed. They're a very prolific circle and professional. They even have a story in the J-boys book put out by Biblos. While I can't read Japanese I can tell you their stories veer from wrongness to completely cracked out. I also got a sketch from Zaco and finally a sketch from a smaller circle that did amazingly pretty SuzuEuphie. I'm actually much more into LuluEuphie than SuzuEuphie and I like Euphie/Cornellia the best, but the art was just so damn pretty! I got a ton of very fun books, found some new circles and found some old favorites. I'm really hoping that SCC has some good Geass as well! Post the event, I went to Ikebukuro to do some fast shopping before going to meet![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
dilettantka for dinner. I admit now, I was not just excited to be meeting Eda for dinner but also the fact Eda wanted to go with me to one of the vegan places I wanted to try to Tokyo! Eda looked so pretty with her hair grown out, it's odd everyone says as you get older you ought to trim your hair shorter but wow, long hair so worked for Eda! The place we ended up picking was fabulous! The little vegan cookie part of the dessert was just fabulous.
Monday, I was planning to leave in the early afternoon for Kansai, but did some fast shopping in Tokyo before meetingbittenbefore for lunch! Sadly, I could not find the Bellini's branch in Shinjuku so we ended up at Capricossa. Judy looked so pretty, not that she doesn't usually, but her hair color/style was just so flattering! On my shinkansen, I was happily surprised to find out I had Fuji-san side and the weather was quite clear so by Shin Yokohama, I could actually see Fuji-san! All my transfers went well and I didn't have a hard time making it to Kate's where I ate a yummy dinner with her and Corrine.
Suzaku a F-11 (I could not stop snickering) and Lelouch a I forgot which mold lol Judging from comments he is a F-19!
BF Jerome and BF May, though I thought the May worked better as Shirley at the Oct event ^_^;
People don't just make hentai figures for fun lol

Date: 2008-03-01 02:51 am (UTC)and besides its hilarious to make Lulu get all pissy cause everyone is hitting on his boyfriendRe: (It came from the lj comm!)
Date: 2008-03-01 02:52 am (UTC)They did tell me which head molds they were, the F-11 just stuck in my mind cause of the added hilarity. And I remember the BF dolls from the October event cause I bought one of the unis lol
(no subject)
Date: 2008-03-01 02:54 am (UTC)Suzaku is definitely a F-11 whichever mold that is cause I remember the circle telling me that and dying. I do think Lulu is a F-19, yours and the above person mentioning it reminded me the circle said that at the time when I asked.
I love when doll owners are also fangirls like that. XD;

Date: 2008-03-01 03:46 am (UTC)Yes, I thought the Suzaku was adorable and I love how they have him in a white ALG type shirt. lol
I was very lucky and the weather was very very clear and I was on the Fuji-san side. Overall this trip was just a great confluence of good luck which was so nice after the last trip.

Date: 2008-03-01 03:54 am (UTC)I was going to post the people piccies in a locked post since I wasnt sure if you wanted me sharing the piccie in a public post. Also if your mailing addy is the same, I'll send you a copy! <3
I was going to email you today to see how you were, I'm so sorry I've not emailed earlier but I have been fighting such awful jet lag. ;;_;;

Date: 2008-03-01 03:57 am (UTC)I figured it was appropriate to share some Fuji pictures today XD;;
I'm such a doll addict. BTW I missed it before but what bothered you about the ending of Voyager, for me it was the WTF Chakotay/7 of 9 that came out of nowhere.
(no subject)
Date: 2008-03-01 04:02 am (UTC)But dolls are just so awesome~ :D
YES. OMG it was the WTF Chakotay and Seven of Nine WHUT? Where did that come from? It's one thing for her to suddenly start fantasizing about him a couple episodes before that (and that was out of nowhere too), but for them to suddenly be going out? WTF. XD;
(no subject)
Date: 2008-03-01 04:09 am (UTC)I don't remember Chakotay seeming interested in her like at all and the actors have zilch chemistry. I think it was cause the fanboys liked 7 of 9 cause she was borg and wore tight clothes ~.~

Date: 2008-03-01 04:29 am (UTC)Seriously, it was weird. D: If they'd been cultivating it for a while, maybe. But it was just so sudden.... Haha, though I suppose poor Jeri Ryan, she did have that problem with fanboys. XD

but not Hard-OnXD;Ewww allergies. I so hate jet lag, I don't mind it in Japan cause it helps with the getting up by 7:00 am thing, but here in the US it means wanting to sleep during the day. ;;_;; I am hoping by Monday I am doing better, maybe.
And I will email you, I just royally suck sometimes ;;_;;
