Hello everyone! Bonjour-nassyi!(ﾉ´ヮ´)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧
Sorry the title of the article is so long! I wanted to make only one about my stay in the south but it went differently in the making x')... So it'll be in two part!
During spring break, I visited my grand parents and my friends who live in the south of France, in Toulon. I used to live there (during 14 years), before moving to Blois 5 years ago, and then to my current town near Paris.
 |
| Arrived at the train station! It's so sunny and warm! |
It felt really weird coming back after 5 years, so many things have changed in my life, and I couldn't believe I was back, I felt quite dizzy the first two days... That's also the reason I didn't take many pictures of the city sorry.
 |
| Toulon is the red dot obviously |
 |
| The sea *^* |
I arrived on friday and, I'd planned to go to Mang'azur on saturday and sunday! Mang'azur (or MA) is a Japanese culture event organized by the AFJ association (Amitié Franco-Japonaise) of Toulon. This year was the 10th anniversary of the convention. I used to go every year with my friends or/and family since the first edition ^^! The last time I attended, in 2010, I was selling my sewing stuff and had my very first fashion show °˖✧◝(⁰▿⁰)◜✧˖°!
 |
| We had lunch before the convention ^^ |
On saturday I went with my friend Natsu-chan, you might remember her if you read my articles this summer
here and
here ! Some of the pictures are hers ^^. We used to cosplay or dress in gothic lolita but we were not into it this time so I left my petticoats at home and wore something otome, and Natsu went for muggle style ^^. She introduced me to her friend Marion, another Japanese culture lover, and we headed to the convention's venue. The waiting line was insanely long x). And that's when I started loosing it 8D. Soooo many cosplayers, back in the days, there weren't that many, but now.... It made me even more excited 8D!
The inside was as usual, a bit less decorated than it used to be, but manga, karaoke, goodies, cosplays, video games, maid café, haunted house, animations,... nothing was missing.
 |
| Natsu and I! All my friends are so tall please stop 8D |
 |
| I need an owl bentô in my life you know why |
 |
| A stall was selling dragon eggs *^* |
 |
| Most of the plushes sold in here were replicas but they were still cute! I'd love more Pokémon ones! |
 |
| All my money went in stuff like this x), and I regret not knowing Haikyuu at this time... |
Goals for the week end: taking pictures with cosplayers, buy anime goods.
I managed to get both but I would have loved a selfie with Kaneki x'), maybe at Japan Expo this summer !
I'm in a good mood so here have a ridiculous picture of me from Mang'azur 2009
 |
| Trust me you don't wanna see the socks 8D |
Then we had a pic nic on the beach *^*! We went to l'Almanarre, the beach that was close to my high school. I wanna go back there someday during school time so I can see my former teachers (and also tell the current students in chemistry that they're fucked, there's no job x')...).
Here have some very old pictures (well ok 2008):
 |
| Us in High school (she was studying at another one though but she got in sneakily on that day lol) |
 |
| Yep we could see the sea from the school as it's up on the hill! Palm trees and such, I miss those a bit to be honest x) |
We're back to the pic nic now! With Fufu obviously!
 |
| Natsu setting things up huhu ! |
 |
| Yeah that's how I look sometimes when I take Fufu in pictures x) |
 |
| Too bad the weather was not as good as the day before ;^; |
 |
| The sausage is alsmost as big as him 8D |
Natsu had prepared a nice playlist of songs we used to listen (quite) a LOT when we were younger, so it brought back some feels and we laughed a lot x) We still know the lyrics of some songs, even after 10 years 8D! Some of the songs were:
_NEWS - Summer Times
_Asian Kung Fu generation - Rewrite
_Utada Hikaru - Hikari Kingdom Heart planitb remix
_Flow - Go!! (Fighting dreamers)
_KAT-TUN - Lips
I can't believe I couldn't find Seishun amigo and most of the song from the playlist, on the internet, what is my life anymore, Nobuta wo produce was my favorite drama ever, I watched it countless times x). That explains my nickname obvioulsy ｡^‿^｡.
And we sang happily on the way back home. Next article will be about my day with Tiya choue, and how she got me into Haikyû huhuhu ~(⁰▿⁰)~
Bisous-nassyi! ( ˘ ³˘)♡
Nobu & Fufu
