This is a SUPER LATE San Japan haul and recap, but I spent WAY too much to not show you guys.

| Day 1 of the Convention Badge Progress |
 |
| Day 3 Badge Progress |
My friend, Pilar, wasn't super well versed in anime so we took the previous weekend to watch some good movies and get her caught up. We started with Spirited Away, moved on to Ponyo, and watched a few episodes of Ghost Stories before we watched Kpop Demon Hunters because I had a feeling that would be huge this year at the convention.
The day of the convention, it was HECKING hot so we decided to just do our hair like Zoey and Mira from Kpop Demon Hunters in the most casual cosplay ever.

The first day was a lot more relaxed since it was on a Friday and a lot of people only go for the Saturday and Sunday. We had a slightly late start, but we went to artist alley, ate some overpriced convention food, and I got to meet Miura Ayme from Obey Me!

He was signing at a booth away from the usual signatures and it took forever to find him but I was able to find it with the help of Jonathan and my friend and we made some lovely friends with the girls next to us in line. Miura Ayme was sweet and I was super happy to meet him since I adore Obey Me!
That night, we went to the "Night Market" which was the adult's only section and I ran into my old tattoo artist, who was super sweet and gave me a discount on my next tattoo. She even took a photo since my tattoo was one of the ones she did when she was still apprenticing so it was a really cool moment!

 |
| The RM stickers were such a cool find! |
I may have indulged in a few....NSFW goodies at the market, but what's a girl to do when she's at a convention?

The next day, we continued exploring Artist Alley and the Dealer's room as well as the arcade machines and the video game museum. I ran into another coworker there and was able to talk to her and her partner, who were both cosplaying as Final Fantasy characters!
The last day, we rushed around to try and soak up the last bit of convention goodness and luckily for us, we ended up scoring free food towards the end of the convention. We left and because we clearly did not spend enough money, we actually headed to a local kpop store and picked up a few albums and merchandise before coming home.
Overall, we had an absolute blast at the convention and as you can tell from the haul, I have to definitely be on a budget for the rest of the year 😅
That's all for now!
Always, Raineedayze
