June 30th - July 2nd (Day 0-2)
Los Angeles Convention Center
Los Angeles
I was expecting to actually do a lot of recordings after a 2 year absence. Instead, I reverted to my old self 15 years prior where I just walk around and take in whatever I'm experiencing. While I had attended some cosplay gatherings, I spent the majority of my time in panels for the remainder of this year's Anime Expo.
Day 0 - Arrived at the site past 4:30am to line up to get our covid wristband (so not to take out our cards each time). Security actually kick us out so most of us hung out at a near-by Starbucks until returning to line up befor 6am.
Day 1 - Normally arrive early but chose to sleep in a little longer before arriving by 7am. Long story short, volunteer told us to line up in the end of the line only to find out from another volunteer to to enter to another line...2 hours later! So.....is this LineCon?
Day 2 - Was thinking Filo would have soft feathers but rocked her big time (not shown though)!

![Glowstick Comparision Part 1: Miku Expo vs Lumica vs Ruifan Japan!
First off, I’m not a physicist or any scientist and yes, I might have done these experiments wrong. These experiments are just demonstrations that hopefully gets some sort of universal classifications in penlights.
Nope, I didnt put any vocaloid music tracks in this video. Yes, this video is like an old, boring tutorial video youll find in a classroom. I did try to sound a little funny!
This video is a series of videos on experiments involving glowsticks (penlights and chemical glowsticks). After uploading the last comparison video almost 16 months ago, questions plagued me about how bright penlights are to why some are not allowed in the Miku Expo concerts? After searching the internet, there was ONE video that pointed the way to continue their work!
The video is a Hatsune Miku Expo edition as the colors is used to compare with the Miku Expo penlights. I am in the process of creating a separate video with just the Lumiace 2 Omega and the King Blade X10V and uploading it soon.
Music I wanted to use and loop but link has no download. Don’t want to get in trouble with music again so just no music on this video!
