The CONCOMIC 


 On saturday I went to a comics exposition, the CONCOMIC. Before I was never really interested in comics, mangas, superheroes and all this stuff and I didn't know a lot about it, so I was excited to see what it is about. I entered into the huge Expo and the firsts that took my attention were the "Cosplayers". Cosplay is short for "costume play", and describes the art of wearing special costumes that represent a certain character from a fiction. They explained me that they took their characters from Mangas or Animes... Wait. There is a difference between Manga and Anime?! When I heard this two words I always thought about these japanese movies with these crazy guys with mousenoses. But now I know more! Mangas are the comics which are created in Japan in a style that they conformed there in the 19th century. The comics can be written about an amount of topics. Love, fiction, horror and many more. In contrast to this "Animes" are the japanese animated movies. And well, like the most of us know are the comics these books that show a lot of pictures and the texts are only shown in ballons or thought bubbles. With this basic knowledge I was ready to continue. All the cosplayers had great costumes! I think I recognized Esh from Pokemon and Inuyasha. At least I think they were them :) But next to them were also normal peolpe like you and me. There were a lot of movies , food and many shows. I was never in my life a comic freak and I never actually liked Anime neither, but the Concomic was a really great experience and for me like a visit to a foreign, fantastic world!! :)
