Katamari Cosplay! And other weirdness.
Whoa. Sure took me a long while before I wrote a post about what could be one of the weirdest things I did this year, besides trampling and stomping on other people just to watch some flimsy fireworks. Besides me punching some random punk in the middle of EDSA.
The Katamari Damacy Ichigo cosplay! ^o^/!!
I had fun. It’s apparent with how I thought I internalized the Weirdness that was Katamari Damacy.
It turned out I was just acting out what I really wanted to do for a long time. Yes folks, what I really wanted in life was prancing about in public like I snorted a week’s worth of shabu. Kidding.
Being glomped on is fun. I can’t blame them. Ichigo is just about the cutest replacement for Barney. Yes, mothers. Stop entrusting your kids to a freakin’ dinosaur, and a goddamn purple one at that. Cutesy Ichigo is way, waaaay better.
Edible, too. XD
Enough about me. Many other cosplayers really rocked in my book, but since I was not able to bring my camera phone while I cosplayed (my self-made gloves made holding things really hard), I was not able to take pictures of them (so I resorted to filching pics from Cosplay.ph…gomen -_-x) I especially liked the Kurama and Hiei duo (cosplayed by two females). You gotta love their costumes. Despite the simplicity, you’d know that they put much effort into their cosplay, and you’d see most of it in the details such as their hair, and I swear Kurama’s wearing green contacts (o.O!). The weapons are finely done too.
And the Castlevania trio (cue fangirl scream)! Before anything else, please let me say that I almost died the day I saw yaoi action between Alucard and Richter. I think I really did. *SPLAG* uhm…no offense, but even if I like yaoi to some extent, I really don’t think it suits the epitome of utter manliness, which are the Castlevania peeps.
But my brother thinks they’re gay (the characters, not the cosplayers). Lol.
Not because I’m biased towards them since I’m a rabid Castlevania Symphony of the Night fan (I played the darned game for two years—Japanese and English versions—just to collect all items), but they rocked, period. Not to mention they almost looked their parts, especially Richter.
Ahhh, Richter. The moment I examined the pics my friend took of the event, I went spastic…In all of my pics of Richter, his hair covered his face! And Richter was the one I really favored among other cosplayers. Aaaaaarrrgh.
And thus I present to you, the Sablay Pictures featuring Richter:

If anybody has decent pics of Richter, please gimme >.</))
Those aside, I would like to thank the following people who really made the cosplay possible (as if world-class production. Haha):
-
Brother - You stayed up with me in the wee hours of the morning to help me assemble my Katamari tubehead. I really thank you. But since you broke (sat on) my favorite pair of pink-tinted shades, I don’t owe you anything. -_-x
-
Parents - Even if you didn’t provide any financial assistance for the cosplay (and why should you?) I’m still very grateful for letting me hitch rides to Divisoria and Cavite to have my dress done. Thanks.
-
Chase - Thanks for being there with me and keeping me company. As in. ThankyouThankyouThankyou.
-
Yvie and Mond - You guys made the pictures hilarious.
-
People who recognized my costume and took pics of me - Ichigo feels so wubbed. ^w^

Another weirdness. An officemate asked me if ever I noticed another girl who’s always staring at me. Of course, I answered no because I’m mostly oblivious to other people at work (mostly because I have my earphones plugged into my ears until my ears bleed). She told me that apparently, this girl thought that I’m the one whom her ex dumped her for. Confused? I sure am.
Of course its not me. Nobody will dump anybody for me. And I won’t take that, if ever, haha. Di ano nanunulot, kailan man. XD
I remember someone telling me that I’m a Weirdness magnet. I’m glad that I haven’t lost my touch XD
