This beautiful piece of work may have been already taken down and there may already be about a billion pictures of this amazing robot in the net but I’m still uploading mine :)

To all those who have seen it, this moving, life-sized Gundam replica was truly an amazing sight!

(And from the looks of it, it seems like the world-wide recession means nothing to the Japanese. The RX-78 Gundam spits on recession’s face!)

What to do in a Shuuden (October 18, 2008)

What to do when you’re drunk and on board the empty 終電 (shuuden or last train) going home from a late night karaoke – dance like crazy in the empty car! lol

Keiō Sagamihara Line – Minami-Osawa to Keiō Nagayama.

Takejiro is just plain crazy lol

You can get a glimpse of Jem towards the end of the video.

It was also Tha- the videographer’s birthday. Weee, happy 30th birthday, Tha!

We scared the wits out of the only other passenger inside the car. lol

Hahaha, I would never forget this night. We better have a better choreography next time and let’s do it at the Yamanote line cool

Tokyo Game Show 2008 (October 11, 2008)

———————————-
The annual Tokyo Game Show which is said to be the world’s largest computer entertainment expo was just one of those events I told myself to go to once I set foot on Japan soil. I’m not that much of a gamer but I’ve always been fascinated with cosplayers and the yearly Tokyo Game Show abound with them. Thus, off to Makuhari Messe in Chiba City, Meemax, Ramil and I went for the 2008 installation biggrin

Meemax and I decided to do our own cosplay minus the anime or game characterization and the result can be seen from the picture above.  My feet hurt like freaking hell as I am not used to wearing high heels and Meema’s apartment and the Game Show venue was a good walk away from the nearest train stations. It was worth it though because we both looked sizzling hot and passers-by looked at as with jaw dropping amazement razz

At the Tokyo Game Show site itself, otakus gawked at us trying to figure out if we were portraying some character.  Some photographers particularly foreigners who I think were not very familiar with anime or game characters even asked us if it was okay to take our pictures. Others just snapped their cameras away without permission. I felt very self-conscious but also very gratified (my feet endured agonizing pain for this cosplay-thingie for crying out loud!). Somehow, I felt how it was like to be one of the booth babes or cosplayers  razz It was a very interesting experience  biggrin

Come to think of it, my costume was very similar to one of the booth babe’s as can be seen from the picture taken above by Lau. Maybe I’ll plan my costume ahead next year and actually portray a real character smug smiley

Cosplayers

Because I woke up particularly late that day, we ended up going to the site late and were only able to catch a handful of cosplayers cry But it wasn’t really such a total waste though since we were still able to catch a couple of interesting ones :)

The day ended with M joining us for a drinking session and movie marathon at Meema’s apartment. What a day happy

I swear to go earlier next year.  And for that costume… who to portray, who to portray thinking
