Why don't you Blog about it!?

On the 13th I woke up super early and made my way over to Huntsville Alabama. Why would I do something like that? To participate in Sukoshicon!
The Con was in the Marriott right next to a NASA space center.

Here is my display. My table has a bit more stuff on it than last time.

And here are some of the drawings I did.

My Friend, Julia, gave me a comic to post and share with you. It is cute and about having a toddler.

Sukoshicon Mobile was my first anime convention where I had a table in the artist ally.  It was a 12-hour con in the heart of Mobile Alabama. Here is my table.

 

 

 

 

 

 

I had two commissions:

 

Father Anderson from Hellsing

Roy Mustang from Full Metal Alchemist

What is the home of Alligators, Zydeco, and Otaku? Louisiana!!! Last weekend was Louisianime, an anime convention in Louisiana (Well duh). This year’s Louisianime (2nd year) was held in the Baton Rouge Crown Plaza on September 10-12. This was my first convention in Louisiana, and there was lots of Creole otaku spirit.

 

 

 

The con was spacious enough for everybody but still had that ‘small-con feeling.’ Also there were lots of cosplayers costume-playing about.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

My friend and I hosted the ‘Pose-off’, a game with no winners! How the game is played is that my friend and I make an ass of ourselves by striking a pose, any kind of pose, and then two people come up and try to do the pose.

 

 

 

  

 

 

 

 

 

This was my first time hosting a panel, and it went over very well. I’d like to thank all the people who played and watched!

The special guests, Scott McNeil and Amelie Belcher (there were more, I just didn’t get to their panels) were awesome! Scott is a character as always, and Amelie was off-the-wall hyper and informative.

 

 

So overall this con was lots of fun with a unique spirit and had a high-level of vigor (9000+ possibly?). I would defiantly attend next year.

…Okay, enough of this sappy everybody-is-a-winner talk (well anybody involved with the pose-off will be losers). Lets end with something I call

“THE MANY FACES OF SCOTT McNEIL!!!”

 

 

“Wait, is that guy selling Canadian Beer?” – “Tastes like chicken.”

 

“Ahhhh… Boobies!” – “F*ck you! F*ck you! You're cool.”

I love Curry, maybe more than Dave Lister, so when I want some immediate spicy gratification, I trot down to the closest CoCo Ichibanya.

 

 

Coco Ichibanya is a Japanese fast food curry house that is quick, easy, and delicious. They are located all around Japan. There are two located in Yokosuka city alone. Like any chain restaurant, they all have a similar feel. Coco Ichibanya has more than just curry rice; also available is nan bread, curry pan, salad, and dessert.

 

 

But it’s not all cookie cutter, they do have local specials and seasonal menus. Coco Ichibanya is very foreigner friendly.  The foreigner menu has seven languages.

 

 

Ok, this is how it works,-

1: Pick your curry base: Beef, Pork, Hash

2: Pick your topping: There is a wide variety of toppings, from cheese to fried quall eggs, order as many as you want

3: Select the amount of rice: From 200 grams to 600

4: And my favorite, Spice level: From mild to 10

 

 

 

This particular trip was my first time playing with level 10. I ordered a half plate of shrimp curry.

 

 

The rice is your typical Japanese sticky rice, good and hearty. The curry is flavorful and tasty, an instant classic.

 

 

That level ten was hot, but it was no match to a curry junky like me, well played, curry, well played.

 

 

If you want to take the experience home with you, you can get take out, delivery, or the Coco Ichibanya ready to make ingredients.

 

 

Overall, Cocos is not the best, but it is still good, not to mention quick and easy. Keep spicy!
