Ohaycon 2009

I attended my first anime convention last January. I had a blast at Ohayocon and I thought I'd share some highlights from my time there.

Most of these photos and videos where taken by my boyfriend as I feel uncomfortable pointing cameras at strangers for some reason.

Notable Cosplays


Billy Mays


BILLY MAYS WAS THERE WITH OXICLEAN.

Not Photoshoped


I have no idea how but this image is not photoshoped.



We found Waldo. . .and Carmen San Diego.

There was also a guy walking around in a working GameBoy outfit. We didn't see him while we where there and only found out by searching for youtube videos later. I did not film this but I thought it was too good not to include.



Best Panels


The Yaoi panel was, hands down, the best panel we attended while there. While not for everyone, I thought that it was the most well presented out of all of them and so enjoyable that we stayed well after the panel until we couldn't keep our eyes open anymore. It was the last thing we did at the convention. Unfortunately, my camera had died before we attended.

The second best panel that we attended wasn't really a panel but a Gumdo demonstration. Hardly anyone attended, which was a shame since it was so well presented and you could actually learn a few things from it.



My boyfriend participated in the stretching exercises. I loves me some martial arts!

The third best panel that we attended defies explanation.



Actually, I had no idea what was going on. You just should have been there.
