Picture of the Day #19 - Ho-Oh in Kyoto

The Pokémon Center in Kyoto has been opening a few months ago. The second Generation of Pokémon symbolizes the area of the Kansei region and the place where you can catch Ho-Oh, the packshot monster of the Golden Edition which is based on the mythical Chinese phoenix like creature, would be Kyoto in the real world, that's why the flagship monster of the Kyoto Pokémon Center is Ho-Oh.

Other daily pictures can be found in the Picture of the Day section and on INSTAGRAM, where you can also find a few more Pokémon Pictures, e.g.Charizard

Now enjoy Ho-Oh and Pikachu on its back

Rain in Sunshine City

It was a rainy day, a very rainy day, I expected 30+ °C and sun, but got rain and ~23°C.

Cold and WET WET WET are some good descriptions for this day. I had to buy an umbrella, otherwise I would have gone crazy.

I had planned Ikebukuro and 3 Book Offs (the Book Offs were canceled, but the one in Sunshine City)

My treasures at Book Off were Monster Hunter DOS, Seiken Densetsu 4 and Pokémon sapphire - less than 1.000 Yen for all the goods, I also discovered this, but the price was way to high.

Then I went to the newe Pokémon Center Mega Tokyo after searching a bit, it's than it was in Hamamatsuch, just enjoy the pictures

The cashiers had numbers and Pokémon - pleae pay at Torchic..

This entry is over now, see you tomorrow in Nakano, espeially Nakano broadway.

Buchmesse Leipzig 2015 - 2 days down, 2 more to come

Hello everyone,

too bad I didn't write something about Thursday, so I will sum up the first 2 days.

I've a lot yet, but there's still alot more to come, I'm happily looking forward to seeing and meeting all the great costumes on Saturday and Sunday.

Thanks to all the great people I've already met and also played some Monster Hunter and Pokémon with, you're awesome , too, but I guess you already know, because I told you.

To give just a short round up for now, here are some of the amazing pictures of THU and FRI:

It's kinda pretty late and I need some sleep, though convention time always means having a lack of sleep, but normally only when you're preparing a cosplay, not when when you're just taking pictures and impressions, so I'm fine going to bed now - names for the characters will be added, but after at least 6 hours of sleep and the next day - Book Fair SATURDAY is coming (already riht here)
