Anime Weekend Atlanta 2010 (Pictures!)

So my boyfriend and I attended AWA this year. Neither one of us had ever been before and wow it was huge. I'm not really a huge anime convention go-er (only been to a couple small ones) so it was a tad overwhelming but so fun!

Friday I went as Kagome from Inuyasha (green schoolgirl uniform) and on Saturday and Sunday I was Sheeta from the Hayao Miyazaki movie Castle in the Sky. I bought the Kagome costume, but I made/put together the Sheeta one myself. I bought the pants and the shoes, dyed the shirt, and made the belt and headband. My boyfriend, Caleb, went as Lupin from Lupin III. Hooray for old anime! His costume got a lot of attention, so many pictures were taken! Older people really appreciated my Sheeta one.
(I totally went out in public like this)Yeah, so, maybe you didn't know this but I've always loved Sailor Moon..

That adorable thing is a bag. I bought it to carry my camera around easily :)

Anyway, it was fun. I hope these pictures didn't slow your computer down too much..it was worth it though, right? Right. We'll probably go back next year, we had so much fun. It's healthy to let your inner nerd out every once in a while. :)

Oh, and just in case you aren't a nerd:

    Inuyasha is so much better than Bleach, I really wish people would quit comparing them! And Castle in the Sky is definitely in my top 3 favorite Miyazaki movies, it's so good.
