chuunin_archive | Akamaru cosplay ^^

I just wanted to post a few pictures of my Akamaru costume I wore to FanimeCon this year. The costume is such a pain to wear--it's hot, I can barely see out of it, it sheds everywhere (including in my eyes), and I'm frequently falsely accused of being a furry in it. ._.; BUT I get lots of love and hugs in it, so it's all worth it in the end. ^_^

I also wanted to note that I didn't take any of these pictures--I found them on various websites. It's rather hard to take pictures of yourself, and I was too busy taking pictures of the other cosplayers to ask my friends to do it for me.

Oh noes! You can't see my eyes! >.> The mask frequently falls over my eyes, making it hard to see. So you know, the tag on the collar is engraved with

"Akamaru
Inuzuka Kiba's dog
Nin-dog of Konohagakure"

Me and all the other animals of Naruto (plus Jiraiya...just because...um...he has fur, too!). I loved all their costumes so much. ^^

Begging for treats...or something. O_o;

I love this picture. While we were doing the Team Eight photoshoot, a random Hinata gave me a big ol' hug and this picture resulted. ^^

WARNING:

Crack ahead!

It wasn't my fault, I swear! XD;; The whole audience starting chanting "Doggie style! Doggie style! Doggie style!" so I had to oblige. *Blushes* x_x; It's a Kiba/Akamaru sandwich.

I'll be at Anime Expo in the same costume (when I can bear to wear it in the heat). If you don't spot me around the convention randomly, I'll definitely be at the Naruto gathering. Is anyone else on this board going? We'll have to find a way to identify each other or something. ^_^

If anyone wants more Fanime Naruto gathering pictures, feel free to request and I'd be happy to post some. I just don't have time to resize them at the moment. Plus, I didn't take nearly as many as other people at Fanime took due to lack of camera memory.
