If you have never seen a Studio Ghibli film then I would highly recommend it! They are the most beautiful, uplifting, magical, amazing, perfect movies you could ever watch. I would start off with Spirited Away as that's probably the best and most beloved one!
The journey their was really funny. There were lots of other people who were going to Comiccon too, especially on the tube, it was like nerd heaven! But the judging looks we got on the train and at the train station were hilarious!
This next picture is my favourite because we're the Anime girls!
When we finally got to Comiccon it took us ages to actually get in because we kept getting in the wrong line for wrist bands about three times! We met some great characters along the way though! A lot of people recognized who I was, well who my character was - it was like being famous, something which I did really enjoy. Being noticed is a great feeling.
Comiccon was so great! I wanted to buy everything! They had so much Studio Ghibli (SG) stuff! Well so much Totoro (from the SG film My Neighbor Totoro) and they had a lot of Pikachu (from Pokemon) everywhere. Like they literally had them both at every single stall! They didn't have a lot of Supernatural though but at least they had some!
They had a whole section just dedicated to Japanese food! Me and my friend got a Chocolate Dorayaki from The Wagashi Japanese Bakery which is a Japanese pancake. It was amazing! It was the size of the palm of your hand yet it was so filling! I couldn't even finish mine.
We met some great people cosplaying, my favourite was when we met No Face off of Spirited Away.
I know it was just some guy in a costume but it was such a magical moment! There were also some youtubers there. We met Chris Kendall.
We're not doing the same pose intentionally by the way - it was a happy coincidence. He recognized who my character was as well! I was very proud!
A really great part of the day was when we got a picture with the TARDIS, K9 and Davros.
Unfortunately we only saw this section at the end of Comiccon when we had about 20 minutes left. I'm very glad we did though!
I didn't buy a lot because it was really expensive but it all looked so good! The top I bought myself actually makes me so happy and I love it so much!
I love Japan so much! I really want to go. They actually have the best stuff. Anime and Manga films are so amazing! They have ninjas and everything! I think I might have to put 'learn Japanese' on my bucket list. I know it's not true but I imagine Japan being so magical, like filled with little anime characters walking around! The actual country does look amazing though. All that culture and beauty, and their language is amazing, I really wish I was born in Japan.
I also bought one other thing from Comiccon however I can't upload it because it is someones Christmas present so I don't want them to see.
In the middle of the venue was a giant minion!
We got a group photo in front of it.
It was all around an amazing day! We were so exhausted by the end of it though.
Seriously though, if you have never seen a Studio Ghibli film then what is wrong with you!? You MUST MUST MUST watch them! They really do change your life. I can't wait to go to a Comiccon in America because they're even bigger and even better!
This was a perfect start to half term - the treat we all really needed!
