Back at the hotel we discovered this warm-food vending machine. Here's me taking some chicken and fried potatoes.

The next day I also tried taiyaki from the same machine. 8D It had red bean paste inside and that I didn't really like, but I'm still
convinced to give taiyaki another try if I find any chocolate- or anything-that-isn't-redbeanpaste-filled ones.
(My shirt says "baka gaijin" for anyone who wonders. XD)

Decided to check out Kyoto International Manga Museum. It was mostly thousands of books in the shelves as well as a couple special exhibitions,
but the point was that you could freely read anything off the shelves. There was international manga too, with some Finnish Emma and FMA
and what-not too. :D (I looked weird here so decided to censor myself, it's not like I'm the point of the picture anyway.)

The whole outside area was reserved for people laying on the fake grass reading manga. It was really beautiful, the weather was really
pretty that day too. There were also people raising some koi flags.

Mom took a photo of her dream job: sitting in the street corner holding an advertisement sign. :D

Different country, same old celebrities.

Found some otaku stores and bought my weight of doujinshi (or tried to, mom pointed out that we could only take 50 kg overall to the plane
so I left a lot of them behind). Mom snapped a photo of me coming from Animate.

Back at the hotel, the evening of our last day in Japan. Here's Kyoto as seen from our window.

Alright, time for my favorite part: my loot. >83 Here you can see the t-shirt ("baka gaijin"), random magazines and their extras, 23 doujinshi
(Bleach, Death Note, Harry Potter, Yami no Matsuei, Haruhi Suzumiya, Comic Party), manga (Oyasumi Pun-Pun and What a Wonderful World
being among them, I was most glad to see that Asano Inio seemed quite appreciated in Japan) and some tabi socks.

The second part with figures and stuff. A Totoro plushie I fell in love with at Animecon but couldn't buy as it was too expensive, now
got it for 60 % cheaper, pocky, the Lucky Star mini Nendoroid figures, otaku cans, maid cookies, a charm that ensures luck in school,
and some little stuff.

When I come back to Japan I need to get more of these, I got most addicted to them. ♥

And at the airport, ready to leave. Buh-bye Nippon, I'll be back soon~

Our Moomin plane. :D

...And the photo report ends here. It was quite awesome a trip to say the least, can't wait to get back there this August for Comiket,
there's a good chance it's going to be even more awesome. >:3
