Trying to catch up - part 5: London MCM (Comic Con)

8 o’clock. The alarm went off and the two girls ran out of their beds to get ready for Comic Con. They were late at the appointment, but not enough to miss out on going with the Anime Society.

Ok, why am I writing like this?! Stop reading fanfictions, Martina, stop... at least when you are blogging!

As I was saying, we met up with the Anime society (for the first time! We had stood them up for every single weekly appointment!) at the tube station and we started chatting with people around us. We formed a group with some girls, Amal, Axel, Teni, Natalia and Maya, and we tried to stay together once we got to the location of the event :) 

Once we got to ExCel, the exhibition centre, we stayed outside taking photos, while the Anime society organisers were distributing tickets, and then we lined up in the queue... gosh, we queued for nearly 2 hours!!

 

 

 

A loooong queue

Jacket + cape

Eventually we managed to enter and the society (42 people) split up in smaller groups, with us being the girls I mentioned before and a boy I had met at the Biology society, Theodore. We walked around the fair for hours, with a short lunch break with sandwiches brought from home, and looked at a loooot of stands :) the fair was big, but not nearly as big as Lucca Comics & Games, where I am used to go, and there were so many people! In fact, it was hard to keep our group together and we lost people on the way, so by the end of the day it was only me, Isabela, Natalia and Teni still together. Honestly, I am glad we lost Theodore, because he was annoying everyone by complaining about everything, about how much we were walking, how many stand we were visiting, what we were looking at... and he kept asking weird questions about porno mangas and posters and he wouldn’t stop!

A stand (sorry for the blur, but I was walking)

Me, Isabela, Natalia and Teni

In the whole day I only bought a manga (“Attack on titan 9” shared with Isabela), a Sailor Daturn key ring and two Chibi Sailor warriors to add to my collection: I got Sailor Uranus and Sailor Saturn *_* I was sooo lucky, because you had to blindly buy boxes and I was lucky enough to never get a double AND to find my favourite Sailor at the second attempt (Saturn). And I was very impressed with myself, because I usually spend a lot more at Comic Cons :P

The best part of the day, however, was something else: cosplays :D Isabela and I had a piece of Attack on titan cosplay each (I had the jacket, she had the cape) and we stopped a lot of other Attack on titan cosplayers, proper ones, to take photos with us! We found so many and some very good ones, including big groups!

 

 

 

I also took photos with/of all the Disney cosplays I saw and of a girl dressed as Sailor Uranus and one with two girls from the anime "Madoka" :D
