Konichiwa guys!
Sorry for not posting right on the 14th July (ooopsie~)

Well anyways,
on 14th-15th July I went to Animecon Suomi 2018. It was amazing and I got to meet my new friend and my best friend too! But the best part was to meet TheAnimeMan and Akidearest!!! Like that was my dream come true, (one of them at least)...

On my first day, 14th July 2018, I went with a local train to Animecon. The train station was near Animecon so I had no problem, just a few walks so yeah. Then I had to wait in the loooong line to get the Animecon bracelet. It took a while (like about 1 hour or so) to get in but then I had to wait my new friend. But I and my best friend, also her friend is with us went around and look what's inside Animecon. About one and a half hour my new friend, Niklas, said that he's about to come inside Animecon. Me and my friends waited for him at the entrance and then he came. After that he wanted to see his friends outside so we also came along with him. It got a little bit boring when I and my friends sat at some stairs and stared at those who are still lining to get in.

We got back inside while leaving Niklas with his friends. Oh, my best friend is, Merka-chan (AKA Merka665 here in Gaia) and her freind called Anna. So along the way, we waited (actually me only who was interested in that program) outside a room called 103a which had a program about Working the Korean Way? My career on Webtoons which was very interesting and my best friend got also interested when we listened to his work. After that we bought a ton of shits xD.

After that TheAnimeman and Akidearest should actually had a Q&A at 11 o'clock but got delayed and had it around 7pm-9pm because of FRICKIN ALLEGIANT airlines was messed up when they're gonna come to Finland. But we had a lot of fun in that Q&A and it was the best! I'm also gonna put a little video clip from that Q&A here so you could go and watch it too if you want! ^__^
Then we rounded up our Animecon for today.


The nest day, 15th July, was SO FULL around when I arrived (around 10:45 am). And it was really hot both inside and outside. The AnimeMan and AkiDearest had a autograph session from 11am to 1-3 pm so they had a long day. Like I 100% rushed to the autograph line and it was already a long line and I patiently waited until it was my turn, but then I saw there was two lines, one for the VIP and one that are normal. But then I saw in the VIP line you could also use the autograph ticket to get a bit earlier than the others so I asked the guy who sold TheAnimeMan and Akidearest posters if I could go on the VIP line since I had the ticket of course. And he was like Yep, you can go over in that line and I was like OMG FOR REAL IM GONNA DIE FOR SURE (in my head of course XDD) As soon the line got shorter and shorter I was panicking and got really nervous to meet them. I mean, it was my first time to meet them personally;;

I lined there for about 1 hour in the normal line anda few minutes in the VIP line and FINALLY I got to meet them!! I gave them my posters to get the autograph one for myself and one for my big sister and I forgot too ask for a selfie but I was thoughtful for those who stands in the line waiting to get theirs too. I was actually gonna join the Anime Opening/Ending Kahoot (baically it's a quiz where you can compete with other players and see who got the most points right). I remember it was one who nicknamed Vietnam who won the Anime Kahoot and I was like DAFUQ MAH COUNTRY?!?!? XD.

Well, then after that I got a seat to see the Anime Trash Panel because TheAnimeMan and Akidearest where the one who are making the program. I sat in the first row while my friends sat at the second row behind me. At that program Akidearest had some special giveaways and I was like I had to join, but sadly I didn't win anything xD 'cause of the gigantic audience they had. And like everyone knew what the answers.

After that program I and my friends and the audience who wanted a photo with with them just like rushed over to them, but sadly only a few got a photo with these amazing AniTubers and I was like HWAT!?! Sadly a lot of people including me didn't get a photo with them so I was kinda aww man~

Then I went to the sitting hall and my friends went to search for an ATM. After a long while sitting and charging my phone there was a lot of people outside the room where I was sitting on the opposite side. I was really confused and tried to chat with my friends because I was stuck inside the tiny sitting room. And then when the doors opened, everyone went inside and I was like Should I also get inside?, Well I got inside and waited for my friends to get inside and notice me. Then I knew it was the ending of the Animceon and wrapped up what happened during Animecon and who won the competitions and stuff like that.

Some things I was really sad is,
I lost my favorite ribbon braid and also a kawaii mask that I bought. But it's okay because in the future I will buy another one of them so yeah that was it.
Sorry for the goddang loong blog about my Animecon visit and really, it was so awesome to meet other and my friends, trying some new stuff and took selfies with some amazing cosplayers.

The Next Update/blog is coming tomorrow July 20th 2018!
