So FC2k6 was fun. The highlight was not the con itself, but rather being able to hang out with people I haven't seen in too long (Tempura Anime Club Members, and others that I've met at past California conventions), rather than the con itself. IMO their Live Programming is deteriorating - not as many panels, and their dance seemed to be missing the DJs I look forward to most (Alana/MPU/Nekomancer & Jinnai). DJ Socket and the others there did a decent job though. Of video programming, usually all I watch at Fanime are the live action films. This year that was Waterboys, which lived up to my expectations, and Nana, which I wasn't expecting much from, and only caught the latter half - it was OK (decent story, but the non-rock-star Nana character is kindof annoying).

Of other highlights, while in my Claus costume, someone asked in I even had the holes in the bottom of my boots, and I was happy to show off that I did. (The crazy boots are the main reason I made the costume in the first place.) It seems a lot of people aren't familiar with Last Exile. If you're one of those people, go watch it.

If anything is mislabeled, PM me on cosplay.com, username SpookyElectric or E-Mail tschundler/at/gmail/dot/com. I don't mind if you use my pictures as long as you keep the info at the bottom, or otherwise give appropriate photo credit. If you are in one of the pictures, and want a higher resolution image for CG work or whatever, let me know.
