Why did you whiten yourself out? You and Shingo looked so cute!

Ube has always been anonymous and I respect that he doesn't want this identity known.. hell no one even knows his real name and he wants it that way. As for Comiket those who watch anime for a long time know of the name. It's the largest doujinshi (fan manga, etc.) in the world (hell there more than half a million people that went last year). This is where he went instead of the park on Sunday.

Which Illuminatee officials are gonna track him down via his clothing and skintone?

Giggles. We had spoken in the past that if we were in Sasuke we'd put a paper bag over our heads saying "Rambing Rican" and "Lost in Ube". LOL It's his prerogative. I personally find it funny.

The park closes at the end of August.
One other from my day there: Two people completed the course. One was Black Tiger Koshige Yamoto. He was wearing his Black Tiger shirt but I blanked on his name at the time. He introduced himself by saying his name and then "SEGA" to help.

I haven't seen it yet!

I haven't seen it yet! Several times.. they have him photographed on the ropes on both twitter and Facebook.

Or maybe we need a Shmoo actually running the course... (Side note: hope you got some good stuff at Comiket!)

I did finally see some pictures of Shingo going up the rope on Twitter. Has he cleared it to anyone's knowledge?

Sweet pics Ube! You've gotta work on your tan though. Also, I have a novice question to which I should already know the answer, but I'll ask it anyway. I know you're quite familiar with the Japanese language, but are you fluent enough to have had conversations with Tomo, Yuuji, etc.? Also, if you got the chance to do so, what did you talk about with them?

They were all short conversations. Mainly (rudely) I talked about myself and my fandom (how long I've been watching the show etc) because I didn't want to delve too much into their private lives. I explained the cards and I also gave them souvenirs from my prefecture.
The longest conversation I had was with Tomohiro's friends who go mountain climbing with him. Part of that was talking about how the show has fans in America.
Nothing too deep, sadly.
