interviews with animecon folks

[Feisty Mouse]

Got this off another message board:

I am proud/ashamed to admit that I recognized a few of the characters represented. It's a mixed thing.

Most of them seem pretty laid-back.

Several Rumiko Takahashi characters.

ETA: sword-chucks - worst idea ever? lol!

 

[Bob Hubbard]

Anime fans frighten me.
Almost as much as martial arts folks.


Of course...I did like the last 2 costumes.....

:rofl:

Of course..this ones the best.

okay...the guy with the sword chucks needs a swift kick to the jimmy...the female Miroku was cool...gotta love Cammi from SF...I'm guessing the guy with the cardboard head was a Gundamn...the Alucard was a major dork...the Faye was...extremely attractive...the people from .hack actually looked the part...and along with the guy with the sword chucks the Goku needed a swift kick...Vash was...er...okay...and I agree, the last two were good, Bob.

 

[AnimEdge]

(For those thinking I'm bashing....thats my site.....) :rofl:

 

[Chronuss]

...I wanted to go as Mystic Gohan..well...er...the "evil" Mystic Gohan...no way in hell I was gonna shave...to a con that was in Dulles...plans for that fell through...

 

[AnimEdge]

i new a guy who had the whole costum for The Great Sayiaman

 

[Chronuss]

eh...that's a little too hokey for me....I misinformed about the Mystic Gohan...it was actually the black suit he wore under the Saiya-Man costume, the black rayon with the white gloves and white shoes...that I coulda pulled off with the black hair...I just woulda been the "evil" version complete with facial hair. just not a lot of anime characters with facial hair...and it's been so long since I've shaved it all off...I forget what the hell I look like without it...

 

[Seig]

facial hair...I forget what the hell I look like without it...

A yeti being treated for fleas

 

[KenpoTess]

*twitch* and to think these people actually inhabit the same planet *snickers*

 

[Bob Hubbard]

Actually, I count several rabid fans as friends. I actually do some prop building myself, and we're looking as doing some armour in the future using cold-casting techniques.

 

[Chronuss]

A yeti being treated for fleas

more like a yeti with male pattern baldness...

 

[JPR]

I find myself very frightened by all of this ...

 

[Feisty Mouse]

It's OK, JPR! They won't harm you!

I have to admit I was surprised to see someone dressed as Happosai, the panty-stealer, who wears women's underwear on his head during his raids.

I think it's a cultural thing I'm missing.

 

[Chronuss]

*twitch* and to think these people actually inhabit the same planet *snickers*

yeah...you see most of us three days a week. ...we really scared Seig and Tess when we started reciting Hiten Mitsirugi techniques...

 

[Chronuss]

I have to admit I was surprised to see someone dressed as Happosai, the panty-stealer, who wears women's underwear on his head during his raids.

I think it's a cultural thing I'm missing.

thankfully I skipped that adolescent stage altogether...

 

[Feisty Mouse]

lol - but's he a dirty old man (from ranma 1/2), and one of the mightiest martial artists!

 

[Chronuss]

...and that's why I didn't know who it was...one of the anime's I could never get into...along with Sailor Moon and .hack...bleh. I'll take Bebop or Kenshin any day.

 

[Baytor]

I swear I recognized the voice of the dark mage. I'm afraid.

 

[AnimEdge]

You didnt liek Ranma 1/2? man i loev tahts show its so funny and everything is consedered a Martial Art, Martial Art Rythem Gymnastics, Martial Art Basket Weaving, Martial Art Flower Peperation, Though Hopposai though a funny char. has to many episodes centered around him
