Title: Uwajimaya festival!=D
Post by: xAlphonseElricx on September 14, 2005, 03:11:35 pm

I was wondering, is anyone from Kumoricon coming to the Beaverton Uwajimayas festival this saturday? Me and my twin (we were the elric twins, Ed and movie Al ^^) volunteered to work at a booth there from 1-3 and I was wondering if anyone from the con was coming! I'll be wearing my Alphonse outfit so look out for me! Maybe we could all be in cosplay? Oh what fun! ^^ *salivates from thinking about the free food and yummy lil pork dumplings they sell there* Ahhhh....

I`m pretty sure I`m going, no doubt on Sunday. I`ll be there with one or two of my friends. n_n I`ll also be wearing my Shadow costume again. And hopefully one of my friends will bring a digital camera to take pictures. I hope I`ll get to see some of you there!

I'll be in the coat from my Oikawa costume, but probably just regular clothes for the rest of it (hey, it's an awesome coat just alone)

I was the tall Izumi at Kumoricon. I will be able to go if my grandmother gets better. She is in the hospital right now. Don't know if I will dress up or not. Hope to see you there.

I plan on going up with the wife and kids.  I did start a thread about this earlier and I am glad that another one got started because people should know about this event.  It is really cool!

The thing that would worry me more is that BARRY knows where you work. Winry's far less likely to stalk you.

I saw the FMA people. They reconized me as Izumi since I was seeing if they were causing trouble. I forgot all about this post. I wanted to post something since I went. It was too cold for me to wear my costume.

It's pretty damn big, and it's got a bookstore, a restraunt, a travel agency, and a makeup store in it too.

Title: Uwajimaya festival!=D
Post by: yuki-chan on October 25, 2005, 12:19:39 am

The one in Seattle is pretty big as well. It has the store itself, a Sanrio store, a music/bookstore, a deli, and a mini food court thinger.

All together there's about 6-7 in the country.  I've even been in one located in San Francisco.  Or maybe I'm thinking of Kinokuniya.  :?
