HERP humping Darth Vader @ the conference entrance
So Atomic Lollipop finally happened for the first time and we were so curious to see it because it sounded very different from your usual con ( more music, carnival theme, rides and acrobatics or something ) so we decided to pay a visit.
Remember we were working on Flandre cosplay and there’s also Meiling for Hanzo? We were actually planning to make it to this con with those cosplays but we couldn’t finish it in time. So I was debating whether I should just rewear my Remilia costume or Medicine. Then on that same morning, I checked my closet and I found my Suwako costume untouched and have been sitting there for like at least 8 months. So I thought it’d be a good opportunity to whip up something simple and go together with Hanzo’s Kanako costume.
Though we ended up a bit late because some of the stuff were not complete, such as Pyonta. So we had to go to dollarstore to buy the eyeballs and glue them up. :’D
Anyway, here are a few pictures from day 1 of Atomic Lollipop, enjoy!
My outfit in the morning before the con because Hanzo and I have to head to Suzie’s place in the morning to get my measurement done for our group cosplay for FanEx. :’D Wouldn’t want to walk around neighborhood in full cosplay, lol. Amy’s mom also completed adjusting the Flandre costume and it looked GORGEOUS. Thank you so much Amy’s mom! My eternal gratitude to you! ;A;
We changed at Suzie’s place and went straight to the con. Hanzo is dressing up as Kanako Yasaka and me as Suwako Moriya. :3 We also made a small iron ring to go with Suwako. Also for the first time I don’t have shoes to kill my feet so I could run around in this cosplay. woot. \o/

Ferris Wheel, I would’ve gotten on it if it weren’t an open-air one. ;-; Didn’t want to mess my wig lool.
Bouncy Castle
Music with Nyan cat remixes on loop.

With mirrors on the walls which is a blessing for cosplayers to fix up their stuff.
Rei from Evangelion and Miku from Vocaloid
How to DJ or something Panel. I was waiting for Pro Posing panel which is after this.. but I don’t think it ever happened. S;
Rave Cat? It’s cute!
Looking through the schedule
Amaterasu from Okami
Final Fantasy duo
SQUEEEEE MOETRON COSPLAY AAAAAAAAA
I was so shocked when I found her because someone finally has done the wig challenge! This Moetron is probably my highlight cosplay of the day. I was sooo happy.
I think she also said that she was caught up too much on the wig and had only the morning of the con to do the seifuku– but no matter, you’re still awesome.
I really wished that I took more time into photographing the details of her wig, since the pictures here don’t do her any justice. ;-; … Hope I get to see her again sometime soon.
Kagamine Rin from Love is War PV
Tomb Raider
Morning Rescue
Fluttershy gijinka. Aww that’s adorable. C’:
Our friend Tony arrived a bit later than us and brought us some snack to chew on. Good timing because I was getting hungry too.
Hanzo checking out some GIFT plushies. We got a small Marisa to put in his car. They only had Reimu and Marisa, and I liked Marisa better. c: Plus I think it’s more fitting for a car since Marisa is a very fast character.
We arrived a bit late at the cosplay competition but I think this Mortal Kombat dude took the spotlight. It was an impressive skit.

Hanzo with the small Marisa gift we bought today.
My throne! The best comment I’ve ever gotten that day was probably “There is karma on her head” and a lot of people liked Pyonta.
Tony with Pyonta.
Heading home around 9 I think. We figured we could go home early to work on more props. Hope we didn’t miss anything much.
It was quite an okay experience so far, to be honest I was expecting more for the carnival side but can’t help it since it’s just their first year running. C:
Anyway, we should prepare for our second day now.
Toodles~

Cool stuffs. Was pretty boring though. First year though so whatevar.
Haha yeah. I was honestly expecting more but-
I really appreciate their effort for trying to make this con different from the others and they had more interactions with the con-goers. C:
And plus the other people were really nice so it’s not that bad.
Whoa I just realized:

My blank-staringness got screenshotted too. :V…
Ah! We had a great timing then. :’D
Had a SWEET time! Learned to spin fire and crochet!! XD Me and my friends actually were pissed there wasn’t enough time to do everything Which is…weird? cuz you had the opposite experience?
Oh. It’s not exactly a negative experience. I enjoyed it actually!
It might also be because we were late for both days. And we sorta left early on saturday which is probably why, and missed some of the events.
Well it was a new con experience nonetheless. Would love to go back next year. C:
Hey there. Just thought I’d mention that… that moetron is me. Thanks for saying such nice things about me/my costume. You’re awesome.
I might do Moetron again next year just because of this. (But I’ll spend a lot more time on the seifuku :x)
Thanks for the post. Great.
