some words about the con i attended latly, the DoKomi 2009
Since we spoke just about it in the channel over at Animepath (one of my fansub groups), I thought that I could throw in some impressions here. Just let me foreclose… it was a heaven for the maid fans. Here u have a few pictures:
Those 2 were great, i have tons of pics of em. They had really fun with their role, u can see that when u look up the pictures.
We also had a madio cosplay cafè there.
When one consider it was the first event and was created out of a “just for fun” idea it was a great con. It was great to see all the ppl again u normally just meet when u’re at those events and also I had the chance to snatch some stuff again ;). Got me a japanese limited edition box of Memories (which even included english subtitles) for a good price. Also like I stated earlier, great for me was the big amount of Madio cosplayers. I have a certain weakness for those, and I think my pictures in the gallery shows that. But also fun was their stage programm, which had some bands (not my taste but hell, they werent too bad), a real good comedian dude making fun of serveral anime (buddy, keep it at this level!!!) aswell as a quit funny cosplay competition and cosplayer auction (where u could bid on a cosplayer so he be at your side for some hours). The money they made was used to cover costs and all thats left after that got donated to social services. I hope they make another one next year, maybe with a bit better planning at some ends. I even think of attending it as a “helper” or staffer if u wanna say so. Another thing I think of is maybe making a small scale subtitle workshop to show the ppl how its done and give ‘em also an idea what amount of work and time is involved in fansubs. But thats future music, thats not realism yet, but if we turn it into realism i will surly cover it with foto or video footage ;). If u wanna now see more pictures, u can click on link in the right side bar, its filed under “Pages -> Galleries -> Dokomi 2009” or just click on the link here.
Yours, Death
PS: ah, forgot the link to the page of the DoKomi, here it is: http://www.dokomi.de/de/ and when u wonder what DoKomi stands for, its Doitsu Komiku Market.
