I had a wonderful time at Animegacon, as Guest of Honor. It’s inspiring to see how international designers, like Doll Delight (above), are taking inspiration from Japanese street styles and giving it a fresh, colorful face.

The “La Carmina fashion show” was actually a showcase of five non-Japanese designers, influenced by Jrock and Gothic Lolita style.

    so far I’ve attended Ichibancon, Colossalcon, Triad Anime con, Anime Southeast, and have Aoi Uma con and Banzaicon coming up soon. I have a cosplay group that I formed with my good friends, http://www.facebook.com/BlackMoonCosplay We staff cons, do panels, and I’m gearing up for my first Artist Alley table in Jan :-)
