Last of the Pan















What's that? More Captain you say?

Well here it is, my last post of Japan. Drink it in.

Ok that's enough. Greedy.

I can't really think of what to say to sum up Japan so err my suggestion is toread the previous posts then mail me a summary, which I can put here and claim I wrote it. Everyone wins. Except you. But yeah its awesome, you should visit sometime.





A few final actives have involved buying various trendy idiot garments, eating lots and going to a manga exhibition. The show is basically for fans who write their own manga's based on original characters or stories. This was a whole other level to the geekdom compared to the toy festival and
it was huge.

After getting there we ended up being sucked into an endless cycle of people walking around the exhibition hall with seemingly no purpose (in life). This continued for a good hour or so when we spied some/hundreds of cosplayers and duly tried to take pictures only to be told off - not sure why, surely that's the point? But anyway after this setback we tried to find out where the cosplay show was being held only to be directed back around the conveyor belt of people, which was about the time we sacked it off and went home disappointed, with only one suitcase full of gay toddler manga.

Managed to get a long distance photy of the cosplayer queue festival. I love Ronald McD and the guy in the robot suit, brilliant.














Till next time when I'll be knee deep in Aussies.

Again.

Cotton buds but branded with Takoyaki (octopus balls) on them because this is the food Osaka is famous for so why not turn those boring old cotton buds into a funky souvenir for your loved ones? I brought 4 boxes.


















Neckface graf I spotted. With my face, mostly my eyes.
