Smash! スマッシュ 2012
My first Smash! was on the weekend, and what a cold day it was!
Supanova スーパーノヴァ 2012
Last year was my first Supanova, and I really had my hopes up for this year. When it started raining cats and dogs on Saturday, I was really worried. Luckily it was clear on Sunday, and it seems both day’s worth of people turned up at once!

Nevertheless, there were still some good cosplayers there, and a few I recognised from the previousContinue reading “Animania アニマニア mini 2011”
