Cosplay at Yaoi-con

There were fabulous Hetalia times at Yaoi-Con this year. I think in total there were probably 12 or 13 countries running around the con? I don't know- for such a new fandom (in America, at least), combined with a smaller niche con, that seems pretty awesome. I think the groups next year at big cons like Anime Expo and Otakon could be overwhelming. :D

Allied love. ♥




See, Russia can be sweet!


Oh wait.




LOL. In your dreams, Iggy.


Closing it out with some epic Michael Bay-esque explosions. We were all yelling "VODKAAAAAAAA!"

Big thanks to all the photographers- [livejournal.com profile] lionboogy, [livejournal.com profile] ziggybecket, Kolibri/Dejahthoris, and EurobeatKing! I think we may have some more pictures coming from AsianSchoolBoy and i360, but I was too impatient to wait. :)

And more cosplayers! There was definitely another America (I didn't get your name, I'm sorry!), and I'm pretty sure there was another Italy (according to photos from the con, although I'm sad to say I didn't see her), and well, I was also wearing casual Canada the day before people met up. Because you can never have enough Hetalia! (I've got another several costumes on my to-do list. :P)

OH MY GOD. YOU GUYS. ARE AWESOME. *is definitely convinced to go to AX as France now* I REALLY wish I could have made it to Yaoi-con now. T^T Seriously, though, you all? RULE.

I had no idea Hetalia was well-known enough for a con meetup with a decent number of people! *3* (I don't know a single person who's even heard of it, heh.) I think I commented on one of these on C.com, but I'll say it again... WIN. Awesome cosplays all around!

I think a Lithuania cosplay is calling my name for next year... :]

[identity profile] ravendarkwings.livejournal.com 2008-10-06 05:48 am (UTC)(link)
Oh god me too. XD I hope I didn't ruin them, it was so hard to keep a straight face in that position. XDDD

I know you. XP

I will be joining in on this next time; I couldn't make it up to the con nor get my outfit together in time. I love looking at all of the pictures you guys got though (HOW many photogs? lol). You make the most adorable America (how old did that burger get? hehe).

Looove~ I had so much fun!

[identity profile] butachanlj.livejournal.com 2008-10-06 07:00 am (UTC)(link)
Love it! ♥ this definitely is one of the best cosplays I've ever seen~

[identity profile] lilly-faust.livejournal.com 2008-10-06 07:07 am (UTC)(link)
WOW! FTW!!! America, as always, is totally my favorite^^, love the flag around the shoulders. Also, the incredibly friendly and clueless expressions of Italy were great! Man, you guys win so hard.

[identity profile] sakurae.livejournal.com 2008-10-06 07:10 am (UTC)(link)
LOL I love the expression on your face as America leans his head on Russia's shoulders. You and [livejournal.com profile] unlock always have the best interactions XD

[identity profile] antieden.livejournal.com 2008-10-06 07:26 am (UTC)(link)
Haha, I was totally going to post this, but I'm really glad you beat me to it 'casue your post is way more informative 8DDD

[identity profile] antieden.livejournal.com 2008-10-06 07:26 am (UTC)(link)
Haha~ well, we're all friends/know each other, so we were able to loosely organise a group :)

DO IT :DDD

[identity profile] hellmaster05.livejournal.com 2008-10-06 07:43 am (UTC)(link)
Whoa~ I completely missed seeing this at Ycon!
I'm so sad~ I'm glad you guys are posting pictures though~! I never expected to see Hetalia cosplays at such a small con!

I was planning to cosplay too, but after seeing yours... i think i'll need waaaay too much work to look as good as you guys!
