Oookkaaaaay my post-expo blues have almost worn off, this is how the weekend went.

Saturday
Saturday was a bit meh, it rained and my cosplay was heavy and cumbersome, I couldnt see any other Gakupo's though which was kinda cool. It got better as the day went on and the sandplay shoot was alot of fun. There were alot of Hetaliards as to be expected who you couldnt get near for fear of being shunned. Id like to think the fandom is decreasing in intensity now as I think alot of people are getting sick of it, I know I am. Saying that though its definately the fandom I've stayed on the longest so I suppose it must have its good points. Its a shame weve gone off it now was it would be the perfect time to be a fan what with eurovision and the world cup. Anyway that was saturday.

Eurovision
This was ALOT of fun. I was with :icondarkrender666: :iconbobbie-chan: :iconchibi-issy: :iconclock-work:. The lolz were as follows:

>The guy who ran onto Spains performance and then got taken away by the police [we laughed so hard]

>The spinning camera on a stick for Norway [the guy was hot I quite liked his song]

>Spinning violinist for.. someone

>Irelands pedo face

>The Icelandic volcano

>The giant butterfly wings

The cool stuff:

>OPA! [Greece, which we got up and danced for. Incedently we gave them the most points]

>Turkey and maNga, they were awesome

>The opera part of Romania

>The flash mob, that was petty amazing

We ate fish fingers and chips that we werent quite sure were edible and went to bed, thus Bum-chan was born.


Sunday
This was by far the best day of the two, it was sunny, I ate alot of sweets and the general loling on the ground was good. Because my cosplay had seen better days I wore my blue lolita. Ive been put off lolita a little due to the bitchyness of some perfect lolitas and the expense, baahh so much money. I do love it though, I'd probs love it more if I had the money for it =__=
The end of the day was the best part, it was just awesome, I took loads of photos, some of them a bit dodgy [you know the one I speak of] then we ran for the last DLR. Awesome

Overall it was good *happyface*

AngelBeats!

My new obsession. Its nice that :iconbobbie-chan: and I have a new pairing cosplay after the America x England saga, we've been looking for one of those. Then we discovered AB. I was contemplating watching it since it was the new title by KEY and I adore KEY stuff. It wasnt a slice of life so I was like... meehh but I tried it.

Plot
At first the plot was a bit difficult to understand but now I've gotten more into it its like.. O_O wow. It manages to weigh the comedy with the seriousness and depression that KEY love to saturate their visual novels with very well. They are the only company that have litteraly made me ALMOST cry [but I didnt cos Im seme bitch ¬_¬] I like the way in which each of the characters get a nice backstory which I think alot of series lack, so it enhances character development. Hell Iwasawa was only in 3 episodes and I was still proper upset that she'd disappeared. At the point I am now [ep 9] it all seems to be coming together and it makes alot of sense. The episodes start slow but they always build up to something intense at the end.

Comedy
I find this anime genuinely funny, as in, I laugh ouyt loud and my parents stare at me when I watch it. Im not sure what makes it funny [yeah I know, its TK isnt it], maybe the way that alot of the characters are a massive pisstake, or the timing, or how aspects of the plot are taking the piss out of other series, the random slow- mo's with snipets of the ending theme... or well yes maybe it is just TK [aka the best character of the series] JUST WILD HEAVEN

Animation
I DOWNLOAD MY ANIME! Its shinier that was and the audio is better. So there. Kyoto animation have always been amazing at animation and when they do KEY stuff it always seems to be that much better. They like their shiny blobs dont they.

Music
KEY sounds labeeellll *melts* Nuff said. I want the OST as soon as it comes out, bllaarrgghhh!!! So good, and <3 <3 <3 Lia
Girls Dead Monster are pretty damn awesome too, their music is so easy to listen to, unlike K-ON where you have to listen to a song a few times before you can tolerate it. I like the way they use singers that dont have a horrid screechy voice- Maria [Iwasawa] was by far my favourite, shem she had to go but LiSA [Yui] isnt too bad either supprisingly enough. I like the way the music and action is coreographed together, a bit like Macross but not as awesome.

I wonder if this obsession will last as long as Hetalia? Not sure, the series ends in 4 weeks. I hope i dont end up hating it afterwards as much as I hate hetalia, I guess as long as the fandom doesnt grow so out of controll, itll be alright. OTL I need to change my journal skin.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

I was going to do a tag/comment thing here but I just caaant be bothered. If youre reading this consider yourself tagged [even though that really defy's the object doesnt it]

Aww this journal wasnt nearly as sarcastic as it usually is, I've lost my touch.
Anyway I leave you with chance and luck. Use it wisely.
