Big thank you to Himmi for coming today as Sakuya and bringing her older sister as Iku! Also thanks to the Random Marisa (Girl) cosplay which we didn't expect!

Hopefully we made Touhou more popular (I definately know some people want to cosplay in the near future) and we are planning a lil dance (entering the Masquerade) for October's Expo.

We are looking forward to maybe doing Cirno's Perfect Maths Class.

once again, thanks everyone.

I was the Random Marisa Girl Cosplay XDD She was fun to cosplay actually <3 It was awesome seeing you guys there, I had no idea there was going to be a Touhou group so I was wandering around and I saw Yuyuko first and then was like, *O* TOUHOU~
I was thinking of doing Cirno in October .w. Or Flandre, but Cirno is more likely. XD

To Kuros And Wishmaker~

Once the admins put up the October 2009 sections up, I will be putting this group up again and it will be far more planned + far more active, instead of me leaving it untill the end. I just wanted to see what the turnout would be and I was very pleased overall (Wasn't expected like HUNDREDS of 20-30 of us...just 5-6 was good enough really :3.)

Think a load of others were too. I might do Alice/Nitori in October but need to think about it for a bit :x.

Since I got Comicket coming in August.

Oh yeah Kuros and Wismaker sned me your contact details! More I have = More I plan Rawr >:3

There's a chance I might not do Touhou in October but have my . anyway. My cosplays are always random characters I love every year, so it differs every, but I might end up doing one, so =]

Yay I just got back home(From England) , I was the guy with the Satori pin card from The Netherlands :3, Shame I had kind of trouble with speaking English at Sunday(I seriously looked like some sort of stalker first I think). I would have liked to chat about Touhou with the group. Oh well, next time maybe. Big change I'm there in October too, I find It awesome that there are people cosplaying as Touhou characters, Haven't seen a cosplay IRL yet in the Netherlands. Although there was a Reimu, Utusho and a Youmu on a convention which happened earlier this month here(And a Flandre a year ago).Anyway good luck in October guys hope to see a epic dance :3.

I'm the one who was with Nahata with the camcorder and sprayed ramune all over himself like a ⑨... acting like a stalker at first due to being too nervous to ask for a photo. >_< Sorry about that.
Thankfully we eventually plucked up the courage to ask, and got a few nice pics of most of the people in the Touhou group. I just registered here because I wanted to share them with you all. You all really did do such a great job with the costumes, and it would be so awesome if you could put together a dance act on the masquerade... although I can sympathise with you for being nervous to do so. =P

So here you are. I hope my creepiness was worth it. orz

Unfortunately we didn't see much of the Suwako cosplayer at all, and the only time I got a picture of her was from a distance while waiting in the ticket queue in the morning, so it's pretty crappy.

I happened to be recording when Nahata played that song on his mobile and Himmi (or her sister?) started dancing to it. I'm very tempted to upload that to YouTube in HD. ;P
