On to the next costume...another last minute one! It was for Tom's Chobits X cosplay. He would be going as Chobaru and I would going as Chiishirou. (thanks again Yumi for the ears!) We joined the Chobits group for that kind of madness and took a few X related images. Yes, this idea was brought up way before Tsubassa Chronicles. It was because Hideki's seiyuu is the same as Subaru's, so why not? ^^;

Albert as Hibiki

I went back to the hotel room to change into Utena. Originally, I wasn't going to bring her, but I did anyway. ^_^; Besides I haven't worn her since AX02. Nando came in as Akio. We took a few group shots here and there for the gathering

Right after the Utena gathering, I realized we did have some time to make it to Ziggy's birthday party. As much as I love my Utena costume, I didn't want to be caught dead in public in a pink wig and epilates, so I went back into the Chiishirou outfit (with my lucky hat). Tom got into Lupin III for this event and we drove off to Benningans. Mmm....chicken! We hung out at the party for a while. We met Karisu and her family. Her younger daughter was hanging out with us outside. I met tomorrow's X group, and the fandom madness ensused over why X is the greatest ever. ^_^; So I just hung out with the company we had at the party. Thanks again Ziggy for inviting us! Happy Birthday! *glomp*

Lionel needs sleep The X Gathering of Tomorrow Man of the Hour

Tom and I went back up to the room and had some sake. Okay, we didn't get wasted, but I learned a very important lesson - do not drink pepsi after having sake. Even after the sake, I was still quite sober...but having pepsi later gave me the same effect. x_x I didn't start feeling sick until we were walking around. First, I went to the cosplay.com table to see what was going on. Kyle had these gorgeous cosplay.com print outs! (I want one! ^^v) Albert was doing his at con printing thing, and I got a copy of the Sakura Taisen gathering. He was playing his eurobeat music, so when Knight of Fire came one, the Neko Twins, Albert, and I did the routine. I think I was a little bit off thanks to the Pepsi. ^_^;;

After hanging out in the hotel lobby, Tom and I decide to get some sleep. Oyasumi!
