I'm not gonna be so very active for a while. I went to the hospital two days ago because I've been feeling worse and worse.
The doctor told me I have a kidney infection, so I gotta take this big-a** pills that are a centimeter and a half (honestly.. that's BIG) until the end of Tuesday... plus I gotta NOT have chocolate, most candies, caffeine, soda, and I can never have another Monster Drink again. The doctor says he's seen more of my case caused by monster drinks come into the ER than he has seen in years that it's beginning to become ridiculous.
So, yeah, I don't feel so stupid now knowing that I'm not the only one that drank 32 cans of Monster Energy in a week and a half. sweatdrop

D= Hope you feel better soon, Janemba. And yes, no more Monster Drinks doctirs should get together and discuss that drink if your doctor thinks it's so bad.
In other news, I'm running off to Hamilton, so I dunno if I'll be on between now and Saturday.

I'm back from Metrocon, and whew, what a con.
When I came to the con on Friday, everyone loved how my costume looked, despite the fact that nearly none of them knew who I was, or what anime I was from. (Though some gave good guesses, and quite a few said Ultimate Muscle, so I guess that counts. Although one guy thought I was from Akira. XD) I had to explain to most of them who I was, what anime I was from, and so on. I even convinced some of them to buy the Ultimate Muscle manga from the dealers room. (I have not met one person who did not like it. XD)
What was surprising was on Friday, when I was in line for a 'barbarian tournament' someone noticed me, and was overjoyed to see a kinnikuman cosplay. He knew who I was, surprisingly, and even what arc I was from. We talked for a bit, and I had a pretty good time. I even met a few people in the artist alley who were overjoyed to see a cosplay from the Kinnikuman universe. (They said I was the best cosplay from that anime they have ever seen. X3)
Saturday rolled along, and I saw a group of narutards mock fighting, an when they saw me, most of them guessed I was cosplaying as a wrestler, and wanted me to fight them. Well, I beat the crap out of them (With actual choujin moves of Mongoman, Terryman, Buffaloman, and Kinnikuman Great, no less) and had some fun in a little mock fight. Then a guy dressed up as Rock Lee saw me, and knew who I was and what anime I was from. He requested some photos with me, and I did a few. (I did a pic with me preforming the Kinniku Driver on him, and another using the Long Horn Train.) An again, I found someone to talk about the anime with.
Now that Metro Con is done for me, I'm planning up for my next costume, and my dream cosplay: Mongoman.
Pics will be up soon. ^^

Wow. D= Lucky. People don't even recognize me as a wrester when I'm Kevin. ;___;
Although.. I'm thinking about doing Robin if my friends go as Neptuneman and Big Budo. Dunno if I'd go with the anime or manga color though.
oh, and I WANNA SEE PICS OF YOUUUU.

Hmm, if you go as Robin, I suggest the anime coloring. By buying the Kinnikuman Muscle Suit (Google it, I used the suit for mah Kinnikuman Great cosplay and it works quite well and is convincing.) getting (Or making) a long sleeved full body unitard (The lighter the material, the better, as it makes it easier for people to see your fake abs.), and some tight-fitting blue gloves, you will have the perfect skin coloring for robin mask.
Then you just have to fix up the armor and boots, and make the mask (Or edit the Kevin Mask one) ^^
I am jealous that you have friends to do a group cosplay with in Kinnikuman. (My friends either have never heard of it, dislike old anime, or will not touch an anime if it is not dubbed. Some of them like Ultimate Muscle [Most of my friends hated it, but some like the manga], but they have not watched the original cause they don't want to.) I want to find someone willing to do Buffaloman so badly so I could pose the Long Horn Train with him/her as Mongolman.
Oh, speaking of Mongolman/Ramenman... Here is a little treat.

There's no way I'd edit my Kevin Mask. XD; I'm keeping my costume. Hmm.. The only problem with the body suit is.. it wouldn't equal out my entire body. I'm pretty twiggish.. and it'd look funny if I had a big upper torso, but small legs. I might just do the body suit and keep myself thin. ( Like this cosplayer.) The anime version would be easier though.. 'cause black boots are easier to find then light colored ones (and I don't want to have to color them) You know what's sad? I bet people will recognize me more as Robin Mask than Kevin. (Unless I do armor Kevin someday.) D=

[ Lucemon ] Ooh, awesome! I think it would been really cool for you to do those moves with an another Kinnikuman cosplayer but eh, it is still awesome regardless! X3 That's what I have been saying! X3 i was looking far and wide for a Kinnikuman cosplayer, or at least a montaro cosplayer, or ANY Choujin cosplayer, but unfortunatly, I stood alone as the only character from kinnikuman. ;_;
The Rock lee in the pic is a big Kinnikuman fan, and also had a Kinnikuman cosplay suit, but he never thought to bring it.

Those're awesome pics! X3 You look great! Weren't you hot in that though?.. Considering you're in Florida o.o.. And.. yeah. I always have that sadness when I was Mars or Kevin. No other Kinnikuman/UM cosplayers to be with. ;___; I'm really hoping my two friends go as Big the Budo and Neptuneman though. I already started on the prototype of my Robin Mask.

Mars Eskara Those're awesome pics! X3 You look great! Weren't you hot in that though?.. Considering you're in Florida o.o.. And.. yeah. I always have that sadness when I was Mars or Kevin. No other Kinnikuman/UM cosplayers to be with. ;___; I'm really hoping my two friends go as Big the Budo and Neptuneman though. I already started on the prototype of my Robin Mask. Yes, after about an hour in that suit, I felt like I was in a sauna (The muscle suit, ironically, can double as a coat for the harshest weather conditions. It says so on the package discription). Luckily, I made the suit so it would be easy to vent out the heat by simply pulling the collar and removing the mask. Thanks to the amount of sweat I processed, I had to constantly drink water to keep myself from getting dehydrated.
I took off that mask whenever I had the chance. XD
But those mock fight were probably the best part of the con. Being able to beat th crap out of narutards with the Long Horn Train, Cross Bomber, and the Camel Clutch is oh so satisfying. I even allowed all of them to punch me in the stomach once with all their might, needless the say, I did not even flinch. (I guess i had an unfair advantage: i've taken wrestling classes and played professional wrestling for years when i was younger, and that made me pretty tough) X3
Oh, and nice prototype.

Ah well, maybe we can get together one day and do the Kinnikuman cosplay group... one day! :3
But eek, that kind of sucks that it was pretty hot in that suit. e_e At least it sounds like you had a blast at the con you attended so that's all it should matters.
Knuxie: Wow, you're starting on your Robin Mask already? The mask looks pretty good so far. 8D

The Veil I hope they do, I would love to see them do the cross bomber on you. X3 I was hoping for that too. XDD I'm so tiny compared to them. And hopefully I'll have contacts by then so I can actually walk around with the mask on without being blind.
