Ohayo otakos from my kokoro, this is the first time I share in this community, yes, I am technically coming out of the closet, but this is stronger than me and I wanted to share this feeling. I was there, at the first genkidama in honor of Akira at the obelisk in Argentina.
It was tremendously spontaneous, I saw a post on Facebook as a self-managed call and I said "that's it, I'm going" I spoke with some friends, the otaku group par excellence and some others relegated in case plan A failed, obviously all the plans worked out well because it was clearly an undeniable feeling of belonging that called us together, this was a tribute
Ohayo otakos de mi kokoro, es la primera vez que comparto en ésta comunidad, si, estoy saliendo del closet técnicamente, pero esto es mas fuerte que yo y quería compartir este sentimiento. Estuve ahí, en la primer genkidama en honor a Akira en el obelisco en Argentina.
fue tremendamente espontáneo, vi una publicación en Facebook como convocatoria autogestiva y dije "ya fue todo, yo voy" hablé con algunos amigos, el grupo otaku por excelencia y algun que otro relegado por si el plan A fallaba, obviamente que todos los planes salieron bien porque claramente era una innegable sensación de pertenencia la que nos convocaba, esto era un homenaje
This was the screenshot I sent to my friends to encourage them to attend the ceremony
esta fue la captura que envié a mis amigos para incitarlos a asistir a la ceremonia
It seemed like there were few people but really the closer you got the crowd gathered, many people in cosplay, one or another doing interviews (I answered some very random questions on a cell phone 😆)
parecia que eran pocas personas pero realmente mientras mas te acercabas la multitud se agolpaba, muchas personas de cosplay, uno que otro haciendo entrevistas (yo respondí a un celular algunas preguntas muy random 😆)
A small intervention with chalk and lungs in the middle of the square, the event consisted of singing some Latin openings and endings, raising their arms for the genkidama and several kamehame's, later a boy set up a drum kit to play the songs, at that moment A well-known cosplayer also appeared, who calls himself the Argentine Goku, his name is Ismael, he is a very friendly boy and he was haranguing the crowd, I don't have photos of him at that time because I had already had some wine and I wasn't thinking in the photos that I could have taken until a while later
Una pequeña intervención a tiza y pulmón en el medio de la plaza, el evento consistió en cantar algunos openings y endings latinos, alzar los brazos para la genkidama y varios kamehame's, más tarde un chico montó una batería para tocar las canciones, en ese momento también apareció un cosplayer bastante conocido, que se hace llamar el Goku argentino, se llama Ismael, es un chico muy amable y estuvo arengando a la multitud, no tengo fotos de él en ese momento porque ya me había tomado unos vinos y no estuve pensando en las fotos que podría haber sacado hasta un rato después
The culprit who brought the wines, but thank goodness he arrived because my other friends left early and I wanted to stay a little longer.
El culpable de los vinos, pero menos mal que llegó porque mis otros amigos se fueron temprano y yo tenía ganas de quedarme un rato mas
I can't say that I went cosplaying because it would be disrespectful to the cosplayers who made an effort that afternoon to bring their work to the plaza. This costume that I used was actually a Christmas gift for my son from his aunt, at the time when they were showing Dragon Ball Z Kai on Cartoon Network several years ago, it was a dream come true to see my 8 year old son . wear Goku's outfit, he's already 14 and he barely used it... so I borrowed it for this event and probably future "bubbles parties" at night in Buenos Aires as long as it fits me
No puedo decir que fui de cosplay porque sería una falta de respeto a los cosplayers que si se esforzaron esa tarde por llevar su trabajo a la plaza. Este disfraz que usé en realidad fue un regalo de navidad para mi hijo de parte de su tia, en la época en la que daban dragon ball z kai en cartoon network hace ya varios años, era un sueño cumplido ver a mi hijo de 8 años usar el atuendo de Goku, ya tiene 14 y le dió poco uso.. asi que lo tomé prestado para este evento y seguramente futuras fiestas de la espuma en la noche porteña mientras me entre
The last photos with the mate and the Argentine flag in BAires, see you always Akira, thank you for accompanying your work throughout my life, everything I learned from you always blooms in my heart and is my guide
Las últimas fotos con el mate y la bandera argentina en BAires, hasta siempre Akira, gracias por acompañar con tu obra toda mi vida, todo lo que aprendí de vos florece siempre en mi corazón y es mi guía

Hola muchachonaaa 😃/, es una pasada este evento al que fuiste, en mi pais o ciudad no note se animaran a algo entonces llama la atención allá se animaron a tal magnitud, un gran honor para una persona que con su historia de Dragon Ball ha llegado a tanto, me fuera agradado estar alla y hacer una genkidama, solida información del mundo de anime en Latinoamérica que no debe pasar desapercibida 😃/
si, es que era mas una necesidad expresar el cariño a los cuatro vientos por toriyama, por todo lo que edificó con su obra, es fantástico cuando alguien logra conmover tantos corazones a través de los años y las distancias, los homenajes continuaron en las fiestas y ferias temáticas del género, justamente ayer fui a una donde hubo un bloque completo de openings y endings 😁
Yes, it was more of a need to express affection from the four winds for Toriyama, for everything he built with his work, it is fantastic when someone manages to move so many hearts through the years and distances, the tributes continued at the parties and thematic fairs of the genre, just yesterday I went to one where there was a complete block of openings and endings 😁
thank you for comment!!!
What I love about Argentina is when they gather at the obelisk for anything, what I didn't expect is that they would do a tribute to Akira Toriyama, unfortunately where I am I don't think there is a place to do something like that, so I have to do a written tribute.
hahaha yes, it is spontaneous, it must be in our port city genes, it is an easily accessible area since it is well planned on purpose, and the feeling is like "what do I do with this feeling? I need to share it before it breaks the heart!" vibe, just talking to my friends on 7/3 when the word spread, (our time zone is one day behind Japan) we didn't know what to do and it came out of my soul "that's it, let's go to the obe" the next day The call goes out and look, I didn't even go when we won the World Cup, but it seems that every well-born Argentine has to go to the obelisk at least once in their life to congregate xD thanks for comment!!!!
