Kraken Con 2018


Being sort of a nerd, I went to Kraken Con in Oakland. Kraken Con is an anime, comic, cartoon and cosplay convention. It was a pretty interesting and fun time:










The best thing about Kraken Con is the Cosplay part. I love how people are so creative when they dress up:







Kraken Con is nothing but fun. It was a fun time that was had by all.

  17. I loved superhero comics while growing up. Cosplay wasn't a thing - if I was more into design and sewing I'd love to go to one of these conventions. Perhaps I would dress as Cold Girl, a superhero I created for the entertainment of myself and an elementary school friend.

  23. It's amazing how big conventions are becoming - even here in Oz nowadays and we have a comic-con type event in our capital cities as well as other locations but also smaller versions.

    I've actually never heard of the Kraken!

  24. My son Shivam would have loved this. He recently went to EGX, the gaming event and now has become a fan of conventions! #GlobalBlogging

  25. Did you dress up? I know a few people who are into cosplay and would love this convention. I'm not one of them - but I really should go to one just to absorb the vibe. #teamlovinlife
