I Went To AnimeNYC 2022 This Saturday So Here’s Highlights Cause It’s RGG Related :) Ft. Merch And Impulse Control :)

i cosplayed as daigo because of course i did and honestly i didn’t expect anyone to point me out cause Who Would BUT i took five steps into the convention center and someone picked me out immediately so that was fun :) another person also picked me out later in the day but anyway onto The Specific Shit

i was rummaging through old games trying to find any of the old yakuza games- Spoilers found yakuza 3 which would’ve been perfect if 1.) i had a ps3 2.) the game had its original boxart. i’m a big fan of collecting physical copies of things so that was a bummer HOWEVER the stroke i would have walking five feet ahead cause at animenyc there’s a segment entirely dedicated to japanese media like games, soundtracks, music- all that jazz and tbh i wasn’t expecting to find much but when i saw THIS??

i felt demons consume me and started looking around to see if i could find anymore shit AND THE FUCKING. MOTHERLOAD OF SHIT I FOUND.

it was illegal i felt so slighted and the worst part is i would have bought 90% of the these if i had a ps3 lowkey should have anyway for collection purposes but i had a budget to maintain so i regrettably continued walking

thought bout getting this and cracking my ps2 but after remembering i paid my friend $60 to crack my 3DS cause i have a bag of rocks for a brain i figured not

HOWEVER while i was hovering here i did run into other rgg cosplayers looking at the shit with me. got a pic of em buuut i feel weird postin pics of other people without tellin em. HOWEVER x2 i chatted with em a bit and they told me there was a second daigo at the con and it just lowkey became a mission to at least spot him (spoilers i did at the very end- wherein i also learned there was a proper RGG meetup earlier that day,, right when my sister was at a panel too,, depression was real but we got some neat pics together and he was chill so that was cool :) not posting cause i feel ugly since it had been a while since i touched up my look ☠)

MERCH I GOT WAS GREAT first i got these stickers from @/riadoodles because i was Legally required to and. i also thought bout gettin their zhao/joon-gi print however My Budget. still a major fan of their work so it was cool runnin into em !!

an i absolutely love this kiryu print i got from (to be updated please someone help me find the artist i would love to credit em an find more of their work i checked all the artist alley contributors and i scrolled through the kiryu tag for a while) and i had The Perfect Spot to hang it :)

closer look:

all in all fun day !! felt like i shoulda bought more stuff or at least attend that meet up*screaming* but there’s always next time ;)
