Otakuthon 2014 Purchases

I went to our local anime convention again this year, like I have been doing for the past 2 years with my good friend Suzy.

travel goodies from san-x

Travel Goods

The compact toothbrush is a nifty idea but I always bring whatever toothbrush I'm currently using and just put it in a zip-lock bag, nothing fancy but I don't see the point of taking a brand new toothbrush for just travelling. It'll take me years to completely use it up (and it'd probably stink).
