So it is this time of year again and the animagic 2010 was held in Bonn. Me and two of my comrades got our tickets and spent two wonderful but exhausting days at this con. The picture above is recycled from last year. I didn’t want to shoot another one of the entrance.

From July 7th to July 14th I visited Berlin and stayed at a friends place and relaxed for a while.
But before I start I think I should apologize if this entry eats too much speed. But since this is a vacation post it is full of pictures. So please don’t sue me. :)

It’s been a while since I last updated here. I just didn’t feel like to write about some stuff that happened.

But now lets get straight to the point.

This weekend, on saturday, was the annual Japan Day in Düsseldorf, Germany.

If you don’t know about this event you can read about it on my previous articles for the 2008 (still in german) and the one from 2009.

animagic 2009

August 3rd,2009

This weekend was the animagic 2009. The anime and manga convention I mentioned in one of my last entries.

And like I said I was there to visit on saturday. The weather was awesome. Sunny all day long and about 25°C at a minimum. If I can believe the internets way over 4000 people were there to visit the convention. Even some people walked by and wanted to get in, but it was sold out.

There were a lot of good cosplayers and I missed the chance to take pictures because I wanted to take them while the most will be on stage for the cosplay competition. But more about that later.

Yokohama

April 2nd,2009

The possibilty for a rainy day was 99%. Tokyo Sealife Park is closed on wednesdays so that was really bad timing and I did this earlier. So what should I do on a rainy day in Japan? So why not taking a stroll in Yokohama. Japans biggest harbour city which is less than one hour by train?
