Im 5ft 5in so I dont have that problem. One year they were selling used kimonos at yaoicon and thats where I've gotten mine. I hope they come back again they had some nice stuff.

I stumbled across your post on WarriorItagaki's profile, and if you're looking for a kimono, I would suggest going to a local flea market or antique show thingie. I got a REAL nice antique male kimono (had the chrysanthemum marks on the sleeves to denote high status and everything) at onea those two years ago. The lady selling 'em at the one I went to had some sorta cheap recent ones for around $25 and really nice antique ones for around $60, so you can typically find something for any price range.

I like your picture its very pretty. I wish I could send you a cosplay picture of myself but I havent really done any anime cosplaying yet. I want to but Im just too lazy to put the effort into making one right now. I am thinking about doing Apollo Justice for yaoicon. I could make a pretty good costume with the stuff at goodwill. Im going to be wearing a kimono for animefest so once I have one of my friends upload some pictures for me I'll send you one.

There has been a couple that got married at yaoicon before it was really neat. I know a couple of options I'd like to cosplay. Heres my different couples Sora/Riku, Phoenix/Miles or I could do Trowa/Quatre thats what started me on yaoi. I think for you, you might consider doing a revolutionary girl utena one that would be cool. If I was to do a yuri themed one I'd totally do that.

Im going to animefest in Dallas in September my friends Madison and Kristy are getting married there! Isent it all the ultimate okatu dorkiness I love it! I want an anime themed ceremony too!

I've listened to Gackt, Utada Hikaru, Meugumi hayashibara and quite a few others those are my favorite though. I really love Utada Hikaru I need to pick up heart station one of these days.

Actually thats looks like a great con I rather go to this than animeexpo. I do cons based on my interests or whos going to be there. Youmacon has alot of great internet stars like team four star and the harry potter puppet pals ppl. I also like alot of those panels they have listed. Yaoicon is wonderful it is the mecca of yaoi we all pray to it, except muslims I hear they arent that big on it. An 18 up con is kind of nice dont have to deal with the silliness of some irresponsible teenagers.

I generally try to stay local for anime cons. I go to akon here in Texas. Honestly its not that great of a con but I love the artist alley there. It also has some very popular japanese bands at times. I do travel though to go to yaoicon in california. I would love to go to more cons but to go to the really good ones I'd have to travel. Money, money, money you know. One of these days Im totally going to anime expo the biggest anime con in america.

You're welcome! :) Man this site is so neat Im glad I learned about it. I know it dosent say on my profile but I am a girl. What anime cons do you go to?
