The reason why I've been obsessing over anime recently?
It's rather simple: The excitement of being only 6 months from...

Anime Boston '07!

I'm just going to detail here exactly what's going on in my life, otaku-related. Because, though it may seem hard to beleive, I exist in this universe outside of the internet. I know, quite hard to accept. Especially what with the fact that I used to go up to random people ad say, "NEVAH PHEAR! I are from teh internets D:!"

Anyway, recently I decided to go as L, from Death Note (mentioned in below post). Immediately afterwards, a friend of mine decided to be Kira. So, I've started on my costume. Due to the lack of details in L's costume, I'm going into as much detail as humanly possible; I am, right now, as I type, sitting like L does, in order to get into the habit. I've also started combing my hair differently, so I change where the part in my hair is (Mine is naturally centered, but L's is off to the side). On top of this, I've begun ti start trying to emulate his walk, so as to make it habitual by the time of the con. This is, overall, just so I can be like him for every second, and never mess up.

Now, being a perfect replica of L is one thing. But...L isn't a very noticeable character. Neither is Kira. And the whole point of cosplaying is to get noticed by people who enjoy the same series as you. So, we've started looking for someone willing to go as Ryuuk. I can only hope we find him; our group won't be complete without one.
