Cosvision cosplay plans – Shinsengumi time!

Hiiiii ~

Cosvision is closing in with big steps and it's about time that I decide on my cosplay plans, don't ya think? Okay, actually I've had my Saturday cosplay set for pretty long already but it's the Sunday cosplay that has gone through a lot of different candidates and thinking. But hey, who cares about my babbling when there's cosplay plans to reveal? Let's go!

Saturday

Series: Hakuouki Shinsengumi Kitan

Character: Hajime Saitou

Eeyup, it's Saitou's time to shine again. Saitou is one of my absolutely most comfortable cosplays to wear (for many a reason) and the character is pretty dear to me so hey, I don't care if I reuse this cosplay a lot because it's one of the few I don't feel some sort of discomfort wearing or have issues with how I look in haha. I won't be alone though, I'll be maybe not so kindly accompanied by Hasakitsuki as oni!Chizuru. Spare me your bloodlust...

Sunday

Series: Rurouni Kenshin

Character: Souji Okita (Trust & Betrayal / Tsuiokuhen version)

Okay, I finally set on debuting Okita at Cosvision. Actually the main reason why I decided to do him is because I went and asked Anniilaugh if 1) she was going to Cosvision and 2) if she had decided on her cosplay plans yet. Turned out she asked me that if I would offer to do Okita on Sunday then she would do Battousai version Kenshin. It was decided quicker than quick so it's Rurouni Kenshin time and a photoshoot ahead!

That's it for my cosplay plans – who else is going to Cosvision? See you there!

It's the train to Cosvision, after all

 Hi! Just a quick update!

Late yesterday I noticed that I had received a bad news message from the carpooler regarding Cosvision. Seemingly some sudden stuff happened, which made it so that she can't go to Cosvision at all, which also means that I'm without a carpool again. Shit happens but I decided that since I already bought the con tickets with Hasakitsuki –and we both really want to go anyway– so we will just take the train. Sure thing that because Cosvision is very soon it also means that buying advance tickets from VR won't be all that cheap anymore. :( I checked; if we buy advance tickets now it would be 140 € for Turku and back for one person – that's the same what it cost us both in total to get to Desucon in Lahti and back! Outch!
Oh well, it could still be worse and at least we have a free sleeping accommodation over at Ri-kun's place, whoope! So yeah, I'll just bite my lip and go ahead and order the train tickets now, even though it's gonna crack my wallet open and bleeding...

*orders train tickets*

BOOM, done!

Now nothing can stop us bwoahaha, I'm coming for ya Cosvision!

Yeaaah. See you guys there!

Cosvision, I'm coming!

Guess what guys? I am coming to Cosvision!

I found a con carpool and it seems to be secured now and last night I also went ahead and ordered con tickets for me and Hasakitsuki so yeah, we are heading there! Cosvision cosplay plans should be revealed soon enough ~
Oh and also, a few days ago we ordered the train tickets to Desucon so that's fixed as well! Happy day, summer con season is drawing near!

This is a mini post but just wanted to spread the news!

See ya!

Cosvision or no Cosvision?

Hello gais and gals!

Let's cut right to the chase:

I have a problem. I've had one for quite a while, actually. 

The thing is, I really want to attend Cosvision (10-11 May in Turku, Finland) because it seems new and fresh and come on, it's a con dedicated for cosplay! I haven't bought the tickets yet because of a huge insecurity about one particular matter revealed SOOOOOOON but I would pretty likely have a sleeping accommodation in order if I could go to the con. The thing is that I really need a carpool. I've been checking if there would be a train ticket sale that would go the right route on the right dates but so far no luck. I'm constantly checking my inbox for sale emails from VR (Finnish train company) but I'm slowly starting to run out of time because there's only one month left to the con! D: I really can't afford paying normal prices for train tickets because my economy is pretty damn bad right now and I just can't throw 180+ € into traveling alone, which is insane.
This is why I'm searching for a con carpool that would have space for 2 more peeps –aka me and Hasakitsuki– and who would start from anywhere around Tornio-Kemi area, preferably, or Oulu, which is farther away from where we live but still possible. Of course we would pay back parts of the gasoline costs.

I'm just hoping someone would help us out; it would be greatly appreciated. It could likely mean the difference between Cosvision and no Cosvision for us. If it's you –who heeds the call for help– just leave a comment on this post or send me an email, thanks!

In case there's no carpool available I'll just pray that a train ticket sale would show up and if not, well, then it's no Cosvision for us. That's how it is.

Thanks for reading.
