More Anime Magic

The Japanese Anime phenomenon is now influencing

so many areas of pop culture including the beauty

industry, music and music videos...(see Nicki Minaj or

The Black Eyed Peas) .

Not to mention fashion with the theatrical ,

cartoonish , heroic or baby-doll looks being

adopted by many Japanese kids, and lately I have

seen evidence of it's influence in other parts of Asia

such as Bangkok.

I am sure it is only a matter of time before girls in

London and LA are donning huge false eyelashes ,

braiding their hair and wearing aprons with heels

on the street.

Anime Magic

Sometimes I am just in the right place

at the right time.

So I just happened to wander into an Anime

convention in Siam, Bangkok really by accident

as it was being held in the complex I go to get

my favorite green tea ice-cream.

So this is where kids get to fulfill there

alter-ego fantasies , dress to impress

other anime lovers and try and embody

the attitude of these modern- day

Japanese cartoon heroes.

They strike poses for fans and try to

out do each other as well.

I will post some more pictures later..

but here is one girl I thought was

pretty amazing.
