My first anime con! Well sorta....

Went today to IMAF 05, which was, and till Tuesdat still been held at County Hall, near Waterloo in London.

The main event is a anime/manga inflenced animataion/art competion, some of the entries where bloody amazing. There's also screenings of various anime, I saw the first 3 eps of Planetes again, and it was just as good. I also saw the first ep of Peacemaker, which I probably get on dvd later.

There was also a trade section, which had ADV and MVM selling dvds, Blackwell who had set up a stall overflowing with manga, all 3 for 2, which also applies in store, as well as a Japanese make up company and a couple of toy/model shops. Sweatdrop studios (uk MIC company) where also selling GNs.

So what did I buy?
A lot....

From Blackwell:
Fullmetal Alchemist vol 1-3
xxxHolic vol 4 and 5
.hack//ai buster (novel)

and from Sweatdrop:
fantastic cat vol 1

Best of all was the number of familes there, which made me smile, a bit.

Oh and some people cosplayed belive it or not
