Boxes are f***ing awesome. You can do so many different things like build a play fortress, use it to sneak around like Solid Snake, create a Danbo, use it as a pedestal, use it as a desk, anything. But there will always be one purpose for boxes and that’s to store items. But in situation of an otaku, it’s a package to have your precious merchandise mailed to you, and with Supnova Sydney 2008, that’s no exception. Many may have remembered from my Animania 2007 merchandise post that I spent a good $1000 AUD, this time it has gone beyond that. So hit the jump to check out what’s in the box.

Cosplay competitions are always so awesome as we see many of the cosplayers around go upstage and strut their stuff, but it also means that I can sit after after walking around for about 3 hours. I got the exact same spot as Saturday so I was in a pretty prime position. But sitting down probably made it worse since I haven’t eaten the entire day and only lasting off a can of V. Still I soldier on so hit the jump to check out the rest of the photos for Supanova Sydney 2008 Sunday. WARNING: Picture intensive post.

So after a rather eventful Supanova Saturday, it was a mission to make it to the Sunday. I got back home around 1am and spent an hour or two working on the photos from the Saturday until I couldn’t see the screen anymore. So with my equipment reorganised, lasting on about 3-4 hours of sleep, a drinking only a can of V, and having a significantly lighter wallet I made my way once again to Olympic Park.

It’s that time of the year again where fans of pop-culture converge into one place to enjoy a day with other fans of pop-culture. Yep it’s Supanova Sydney 2008 so it was time to head down to The Dome at Sydney Olympic Park armed with camera gear, Moé Moé Rabu business cards, and a wallet fat full of gold. Though I didn’t actually arrive to the convention until midday since I had some earlier business to deal with in regards to my Japan trip, but upon stepping through the doors after paying my $20 admission ticket, the place was packed. I swear Supanova must get larger each year, or I keep forgetting how many people attend each time. Before combining the camera gear together, I had a walk around with fellow friend Roobar to see what was there and to say hello to various friends and associates. WARNING: Picture intensive post.

It’s been 2 years since I last went to a Mini-Animania Sydney event, and back then I wasn’t too impressed. But this time around I figured it was time to head back and see if anything has changed in those two years, plus I have money to attend compared to last year, lol. So armed with the shiny camera, not so much cash, and deprived of sleep because of work, I headed down to the city to see how things would turn out. So hit the jump to check out photos and my overall impressions. WARNING: Picture intensive post.
