Study Japanese
If you’re passionate about anime and manga, chances are you have already studied a little Japanese
language – and that’s great! Learning Japanese is a fantastic way to better understand Japanese
culture, as well as gain a deeper appreciation of Japanese pop culture.
But did you know there are also many practical reasons for studying Japanese? In 2013, Japanese
was identified by the British Council as one of the “most vital” languages to the UK over the next 20
years. Furthermore Japan invests considerably more in the UK than any other Asian country; over
1,300 Japanese companies have invested here. No wonder Japanese was ranked as one of the top
10 languages to study in a recent survey of UK employers’ preferences!

Japan Foundation

or visit
www.jpf.org.uk
If you are interested in studying Japanese, the Japan Foundation
London would be delighted to help you. We can give you information
on institutions and private tutors local to you that teach Japanese. We
have a library filled with around 10,000 books and other resources for
studying Japanese, in addition to plenty of free, high quality online
resources. And if you’re a school student or teacher and you want to
get Japanese started at your school, we can work closely with your
school to make this a reality.
Visit our stand at London Anime Gaming Con and attend our Japanese
language taster. Yoroshiku onegaishimasu! (We look forward to
working with you!)
Welcome to the Dark Side...
When people typically think of Japanese fashion, they think of lace, frills, too much pink and petticoats
but there is Japanese Fashion out there which appeals to a different crowd as Aisha Anime explains...
The perfect example would be punk which is comprised of dark colours, stripes, buckles, safety pins
(similar to goth) but has a unique twist with signature pieces setting the outfit. There can be themes for
example a British twist of punk is have tartan in the outfit. Japanese punk will normally have animal
traits such as cat ears, paws or attached animal ear hoods and tails.
The fun thing about punk styles is you can often mix and match and make pieces to set off an outfit. Be it
a flowered head dress or a plushie rucksack. Brands are not essential, it is more about portraying your
creativity and character. You can often find pieces and inspiration in Camden market!
On the contrast we have Gothic Lolita which is more about the silhouette,
dark deep colours brought to life by the shape of the skirt or bonnet.
Similar to the ‘Sweet Lolita’ counterpart, this style relies on brand pieces
and handmade outfits. Since burlesque has become quite popular it is
now emerging in the Gothic Lolita fashion to have high skirts and cage
frames making a statement piece in muted colours. The look is about
using materials and patterns to show off your shape rather than reveal
skin. Gothic Lolita Bible magazine is very popular as it includes clothing
patterns to make you own dresses and accessories. Often the more
boutique outfit you invest in – it will have it’s own acquired signature.
Since the popularity has grown so has the British talent in making
Japanese inspired clothes you can find UK designers pushing these two
particular styles as well as purchase directly from Japan.

Cosplay Community
Cosplay Contest Winners LAGC July 2014
Cosplay is an important part of LAGC, one
which we intend to continue to develop and
grow around the UK. Part of this is working
with an array of cosplay guests from around
the UK, including talented online cosplayers
whose popularity could break the internet and
contest winners who have brought home Gold
for the UK.
For cosplay guest Chiquitita Cosplay, LAGC
is her local convention and one she has
attended for many years,“It may seem smaller
than some of the larger expos out there but
that’s what makes it special. Over the years I
have seen it grow - especially in the amount
of cosplayers attending. It really brings the
community together”

in Kill La Kill. We expect more big things from
her in the future and can’t wait to see what she
has in store for us next!
Cosplay Burlesque
Dixie Rocket and Mojo Jones enlighten us about the new
hybrid Cosplay- Burlesque
The word burlesque comes from the Italian ‘burla’, meaning
to mock or make fun of, in its purest form burlesque is
about taking a concept and making the audience look
at it in an entirely different way, Mojo explains. Cosplay
burlesque gives performers the ability to take a character
and portray them in a new light; from an emotional Dalek to
an evil Disney princess. It is all about playing with people’s
expectations and emotions to create something between the
sublime and the outlandish.
A love for Burlesque runs in the family for Mojo, her
grandmother was a professional burlesque dancer; however
Mojo didn’t see burlesque in her future, “I never thought it
was something I could do as I lacked confidence”. Things changed when a friend held a charity
show and Mojo was invited to be involved. “Realising I could combine my geekiness with burlesque
I got hooked. I joined a troupe and put myself out there for bookings”.
Dixie Rocket, photo by Andrei Guiamoy
Burlesque found Dixie Rocket two years ago during a show at Madame JoJo’s “It was love at
first sight”. Inspired by what she had seen, Dixie Rocket immediately began lessons, progressing
quickly she now too is getting regular bookings. For those interested in starting burlesque, the
ladies strongly recommend finding a burlesque class or local group in your area. For those living
in London, Dixie Rocket recommends the website Burlesque Baby. Most importantly, the women
advised the key to a successful performance is finding a character you love and knowing the story
you want to convey ensuring to be as creative, outrageous and always thinking outside of the box.
When asked what they love the most about cosplay burlesque Mojo beamed, “The audience
reaction. There is nothing like being on that stage and telling a story they aren’t expecting”. Dixie
agreed, adding that she loves the combined community that Cosplay Burlesque brings together.
Everyone has their own opinion, and sometimes misconceptions of what burlesque really is. Our
talented performers reiterate and clarify that in their eyes burlesque in no way demeans women,
instead quite the opposite highlighting the empowerment, confidence and celebrating the array of
talent it brings. In fact the ladies have found their confidence has soared since performing, finding
that the audience not only admires the performer’s body but their skill, creativity and the ability to
story tell. It is an art that truly appreciates
and revels every type of shape, age gender.
Perhaps Burlesque could teach the world a
thing or two?
The ladies want to keep a few surprises but
hint that Final Fantasy, Harley Quinn and
Poison Ivy may come to life on stage, so don’t
miss Mojo Jones and Dixie Rocket’s first ever
joint performance accompanied by compeer,
Marcus Gill at 7pm, Sunday, Upstairs Stage.
Mojo Jones by Monster Photography
London Anime Con cordially invites you to the wedding
of
Ricky and Leanne
Ceremony 7.30pm, Upstairs Stage
Reception 8pm, Anime Chillout
The pair met first met at
LAGC, where there love
blossomed. Ricky eventually
surprised Leanne with a
romantic proposal on stage.
It seems only right the pair
should tie the knot there as
well!
Over the years AnimeLeague has helped raise
thousands of pounds for numerous charities. This year
we are supporting Games Aid which provide gaming
equipment for children in long term hospital care. It is
a great cause (can you imagine life without your PS4?)
We please ask for you to donate anything that you can,
every 1p counts! There are loads of ways you can help
even if you are strapped for cash. The number one
method is by entering the cosplay auction, go up on
stage and let the crowd ‘bid’ for you for fun or a service e.g cosplay tuition or a head massage! (it
is not as scary as it may sound and is lots of fun!) Holly Marie King who entered previously said,
“I was both surprised and shocked at how much people bidded, an interesting and unpredictable
event. It is a great way to make new friends as well as raise money for a great cause”. Philippa
Allen, who went for over £150 at the last event added “It is great when it turns into a bidding war
between 2-3 people”. The cosplay auction takes part Saturday, 7pm Upstairs stage.
Can I take a selfie?
Earn points for your clan by taking part in our selfie
scavenger hunt! The clan in first place will win 150 points,
second place 100 and third 50!
Take a selfie:
1. With a Puella Maji Madoka Magica Cosplayer
2. Eating noms from the cosplay cafe
3. With something super kawaii
4. With your clan leader
5. Partying like its 1999
6. Making a heart with a new friend
7. Derping
8. Taking part in a con activity

14.With a Naruto and Bleach cosplayer
15. Building a pocky tower
Once you have a selfie tweet it to @Londonanimecon
followed by the number in the selfie scavenger hunt and #
your clan; #wickedwizards #mechapirates #shonenheroes
Example: @londonanimecon number 7 #shonenheroes
Stay Snap Happy
By attending the event you will undoubtedly be blown away by the amazing cosplay and fashion
on display. Likely you will want to take a photo to remember, show others just how amazing your
weekend was or even take part in our selfie scavenger hunt but whether your a pro-tog or selfie
snapper it is important to not get carried away and remember to remain respectful at all times.
Here are a few tips!
- A phone isn’t a license to shoot, just like those huge cameras you see on the red carpet aren’talways ask permission you will get a much nicer photo. Taking one without, is not candid.
- Avoid shot stealing, the convention is 8+ hours a day, waiting an extra minute while someone takes
their photo first, won’t hurt you!
- If someone is eating, not fully in costume or taking a break, come back later or politely ask when
they are free for a shoot.
- Do not touch a cosplayer (or any attendee) or prop without their permission - they will likely be
uncomfortable with this and you may even be at risk of breaking their costume that they worked so
hard at!
Remember Cosplay doesn’t equal consent!
