Namiko moon is in DA house

I went to the Con comic Guadalajara may 2013 held in expo guadalajara , and it was pretty... INTERESTING.

But what is a con comic?

A "Con comic or Comic con" is a quarterly convention of comics, movies and video games. In addition to presenting  comics material, we can also find movies, video games and toys based on them. Guests participate in the event giving details of their movies, video games, comic books, serials, etc...

My expirience...

Ok... at first I didn't want to go, and less alone! So I invited a friend of mine that accepted to go but wasn't very sure about ir just lke me. We decided to go early, because we thought that there would be fewer people, but before we decided to see the chapter on "the rose of Guadalupe" on otaku to know more about the topic.(www.youtube.com/watch?v=j6zX83pALjk)

So when we arrived, it was FULL! and there were alot of people with costumes, and even if i tried i couldn't avoid laughing (I know that was bad, and im going to hell because of that). So my friend and I decided to wait for Romo and Jaqui. When we fianlly entered, it was more full! we begin to see stands, and we didn't understand anything, just pokemon, naruto, domo, PSY and more mainstream thing like that.

A weird smell of "Maruchan" surprised us... but latter we discovered that it was ramel, a Japanesse food, is a kind of mauchan, then we discovered this breads of strawberry, chocolate, coffee, and other things, they tasted like bolillo....

Then Valeria arrived and we  saw everything again, the tournaments, the karaoke, the guys dancing k-pop, the fencing classes, the conferences, the autographs area (where we met Jeanny as wonder woman). When we where in the karaoke area the song of Dragon Ball Z started and everyone started singing as their national anthem, and then some weird guy ask Jaqui if he can have a picture with her... but she wasn't wearing a custome (hilarious).


- Kind of people there
Well there were many types of people, but I think that there were most fans of some anime or comic, or of the Japanese culture.

- Craziest thinghs

1. The smell (like Maruchan)
2. The PSY socks
3. The K-pop dancers
4. The Zombie kit
5. And the "blood" energy drink

- Personal opinion

I liked it, it wasn't  as rare as I expected and you can find very interesting things, I would return if it was not so expensive, $80 is very expensive for what it is because isa very small space, The FIL is cheaper and a lot larger.

- New words I learned

Anime/Manga

Comics

4. Comics:  an artistic medium in which images incorporate text or other visual forms of information in order to express a narrative or idea.

Animatrix

Animatrix is an anime that we can describe as the begining of the movie of Matrix. The anime shows  guy writing in the computer, and the computer answering him, and when the guy is on the  school he receives some messages, even  that the phone was off, then he tries to escape because the message said that they knew he knew, we runned chased by some guys in a suit and his teacher than we later discover that it was an agent too.

Later  we see that the revolution of the robots, start when one of them killed his  owners, people were destroying all the robots, but they we’re smarter and stared a new civilization transforming humans.
