Report on the Comic Fair
Aug. 16th, 2005 05:54 pmI spent the morning with
inouekun on the Comic Fair and had a pretty good time.
In the end, I didn't bought as much as I expected, as it was harder to get old mangas than last year, for some reason. I only bought one volume, X #12. I guess I'll have to fetch the rest in a comic store. Bah.
Apart from that one, I bought two objects of merchandising. ( cut for picture of a chibi Elric keyring posing with an artbook full of hawtness (and some pink cutesy stuff I don't care about) )
Isn't he cute? ^.^ They also had his brother, but there was something odd with him.
Oh, and we saw a huge Al plush, including the kitty and all. That one was too expensive, though. It was unusual to find non-Naruto plushies, I must say. There were also Inuyasha keyrings like this one, and there were some cushions with anime images.
Even though it's not a "Salón" (Con), there were three persons cosplaying Naruto characters XD It was really cool, especially the Itachi one, who had even his nails all polished. It was really amusing, considering this is a small city.
The artbook is the CardCaptor Sakura manga artbook #2. Why did I choose that one? Well:
a) Clow. The Clow pictures were in this one. Enough said.
b) Touya/Yukito pictures!
c) Eriol. Duh.
I find it funny that they (CLAMP) comment people used to tell them that Eriol's hat made him look like a mushroom XDDDDDD By the way? All the magnolia pictures are in this one, too.
All and all, I spent almost 25 euros in everything.
ETA: Gawd, I almost forgot! I got to touch an X Zero artbook! The person in charge of the stand let us touch it and flip it around. I think I drooled a lot. Too bad I had a stomachache when I saw the price... Yikes.
