My Short Dokomi (Düsseldorf/Germany) Review: (If you don't care im sowwyyyyy, ima still leave it here :3)
You don't know what Dokomi is? Let me explain real quick: It's an Japan and Anime/Manga themed Event/Convention.
It was my first time there and I met some really cool people and saw incredible cosplays and characters, it was such a fun experience!
There were also people spontaneously dancing to music, creating such a fun and vibe. Everyone was so chill and friendly, it really added to the positive atmosphere of the event.
That said, it was very crowded and felt a bit overfilled. It was hard to properly look at figures or merchandise because there were just so many people.
Still, I managed to get a few awesome things!
I bought a cup featuring a custom design drawn by someone’s daughter, it looks super cool and unique.
I also picked up a plushie and four keychains: Hatsune Miku, Misa Amane, two cute cats, and one with a hand-drawn design.
My favorite part?
THE 18+ AREA! I almost didn’t get access to it because I forgot to bring my ID to prove I’m 18+ (to get the 18+ Area bracelet). Luckily, my friend had their driver’s license with them, so we swapped, I used their license, and they used their ID card. It wasn’t exactly the right way to do it, but it worked, and we both got in. I know it wasn’t ideal, but honestly, if I’m at an event like that, I want to experience everything! And just to be clear, I am 18+, so no worries there.
Aaaaand...Definitely the Itasha (anime-wrapped car) collection! I absolutely love them, they looked incredible.
I’ll attach a photo here so you can see!
Some of the cars were themed after The Quintessential Quintuplets, Date A Live, Violet Evergarden, and more.
My personal favorites were the ones with Gawr Gura and Violet Evergarden, they looked so good!
Sadly, I couldn’t find anything about Clannad or Kanon, two of my all-time favorites. :(((( I guess older anime just aren’t featured as often at these events, except for the old Ghibli’s.
Yes, the art was done by my700. I've basically only been watching select adaptations and sequels each season, haven't had much time to watch new anime lately and rarely do any pique my interest. What about you?
I think the psychological aspect of Killing Stalking is really nice :) but yeah, the art as well. Oh, so you read it earlier than me hehe :p I'd played/watched/read a lot of disturbing things before I got to it, but it still managed to leave such a big impact on me.
Most of the BL recs would probably be limited to visual novels :) aside from short smut manga, I haven't really read too many "proper" BL series yet.
Well, you probably know Given. Hmm need to think. Most of the things that come to mind are short erotic doujins I read on MyReadingManga that aren't even in MAL database lol
As for overall recommendations: what do you like? :)
Well let me know if you enjoy that Lupin III film if you do I will recommend some others in the series, as there are tons in the series, I'm a sub man myself and I adore the Japanese cast.
Yeah I literally just started reading Bleach and I'm enjoying it a lot so far! Matter of fact, I've already completed the first 3 volumes 😹😹😹. As for the anime, well I put it on hold cuz I was having trouble getting through some of the filler (the bount arc in particular was a bit of a slogfest so to speak lol) but the soul society arc and to a lesser extent the arrancar arc were pretty damn good imo.
Allen Eskens - I'll check out his books. Thank you. Also, the pic in the bio isnt from TBATE, it's from a scene in Shadow Slave, one of the most pivotal ones to be specific.
