My Short Dokomi (Dรผsseldorf/Germany) Review: (If you don't care im sowwyyyyy, ima still leave it here :3)
You don't know what Dokomi is? Let me explain real quick: It's an Japan and Anime/Manga themed Event/Convention.
It was my first time there and I met some really cool people and saw incredible cosplays and characters, it was such a fun experience!
There were also people spontaneously dancing to music, creating such a fun and vibe. Everyone was so chill and friendly, it really added to the positive atmosphere of the event.
That said, it was very crowded and felt a bit overfilled. It was hard to properly look at figures or merchandise because there were just so many people.
Still, I managed to get a few awesome things!
I bought a cup featuring a custom design drawn by someoneโs daughter, it looks super cool and unique.
I also picked up a plushie and four keychains: Hatsune Miku, Misa Amane, two cute cats, and one with a hand-drawn design.
My favorite part?
THE 18+ AREA! I almost didnโt get access to it because I forgot to bring my ID to prove Iโm 18+ (to get the 18+ Area bracelet). Luckily, my friend had their driverโs license with them, so we swapped, I used their license, and they used their ID card. It wasnโt exactly the right way to do it, but it worked, and we both got in. I know it wasnโt ideal, but honestly, if Iโm at an event like that, I want to experience everything! And just to be clear, I am 18+, so no worries there.
Aaaaand...Definitely the Itasha (anime-wrapped car) collection! I absolutely love them, they looked incredible.
Iโll attach a photo here so you can see!
Some of the cars were themed after The Quintessential Quintuplets, Date A Live, Violet Evergarden, and more.
My personal favorites were the ones with Gawr Gura and Violet Evergarden, they looked so good!
Sadly, I couldnโt find anything about Clannad or Kanon, two of my all-time favorites. :(((( I guess older anime just arenโt featured as often at these events, except for the old Ghibliโs.
