Thank you for still reading my blog. I will now reward you with an article about cosplay during Petit Fancy 12 at National Taiwan University.
)
Yeah, this what I came for! Look at all those people and hair colours already. And there's even a dude dressed up like Mio from K-ON.
)
The impressive gym building at 台大. Inside this towering dome you can do anything from swimming to playing squash or buying doujinshi. Well. Last one was just for today. If you come on other days, you might catch a computer game tournament or some other awesome events.
)
This Kagami dude doesn't look all that happy. I can't see why...
)
Just before you despair completely, I can assure you there's a lot of girls dressed up like female characters too.
)
But you know... I might actually have female readers anyway, so I'll not skip over the guys. (Actually I have a suspicion that most of my readers could be girls, hah. If I have any readers anymore...) ^^;
)
So many people there...
)
I wonder what kinds of characters these people are playing. Some sort of fighting series like Naruto or similar, perhaps?
)
Chinese traditional clothes are awesome.
)
I don't know if there were more cosplayers or photographers really. At the Taipei Game Show I wasn't in doubt, there were at least 20 times as many guys with big cameras as girls in those halls but here at petit fancy I'd say it's probably around 50-50. But then: Every cosplayer had their own camera too.
)
More guys. I admire their open-mindedness.
)
Most of the people seem to come here in groups or, at least, pairs. Few of them are brave enough to come all by themselves. I'm not entirely sure about this beauty, but she seemed a bit on her own, which just made her so much more cute.
)
Taiwan is an awesome place. So many beautiful people around.
)
That is a pretty big gun.
)
Asians have mostly brown or black eye-colour. Even people that are half Caucasian are seldom to have another eye color since the genes for brown eyes are dominant. The use of coloured eye-lenses is very frequent here though, and not just for activities like this. Some young people will wear coloured lenses to school everyday as if it was any other accessory or clothing style.
Here, of course, the availability of these lenses come in quite handy. After all, manga characters just don't have natural eye and hair-colours.
)
I think this guy looked pretty cool.
)
And this is just a strange scene... I like it though.
)
I especially like this girl. I think the lightning could have been a little better, though.
)
A real, female Hatsune Miku at last.
)
This girl looks just slightly like a teacher I have. She managed to get a lot of attention with those big fans of hers, but professional utilization of my structural benefits of being a foreigner allowed me to get this picture over the heads of everyone else.
)
She's not the only one with big fans, though. These girls have fans too.

Ah, hate to break it to you but all good things come to an end. There's just a few more eye candies on boonbot.com that you can find if you click the link in the beginning of this post that says "National Taiwan University". You could also just click one of the pictures to get to my boonbot site.
Hope you liked it. Please let me have some responses so I can see if I still have a few readers! :D
