@ jennkei – you thought they were books, too? That’s what I thought! Or…Wait, now I’m really confused! What is edible in that picture? XD
In any event, thanks for commenting and replying! But do watch out for wiseguy-spam program that copy your comments and your name and add: “Oh fyi, your are my favorite blogger!” or some shit like that. Any time you see an address that goes mcad*berry something-other, it is spam!

@rayyhum777: Yeah, that was pretty bizarre spam. I agree! The first picture I saw of the cake was a bit blurry and from another angle, so I was wondering what was with the shot of just books on the table…^_^”

@ jennkei – spam programmers are getting smarter all the time. I wish I could kill all their kids so they don’t have any offspring to carry out their trade! XD
That cake really didn’t look like something one can eat.

What the hell. -smacks spam above- I thought that sounded familiar; -I- said it!
Delicious cake is goot. =) I think maybe not frosting..frosting is quite soft and pretty hard to work with, while the microbes are quite detailed…which was why I was wondering whether they were clay or plastic or something. XD

Actually, the link to the YouTube video was in the article from the moment it went up. I took it directly from NYAF. Miz, your report was linked right next to it.

"I watched a man take a katana and cut into a giant cake."

There were only eight links total. Check them out!

@soymilkpudding - You should have said hi! Don't be a stranger!

@jennkei - I wondered too, but it was redeemed with deliciousness. I didn't get any microbes, but I believe they were made of frosting.

@rayhum777 - He entered Jodan no kamae, as near as I can make out.

Well Japantor does have a video detailing when the cake was cut.. I linked back to that video on my JLHLS report. http://www.liheliso.org/2009/10/01/new-york-anime-festival-2009-part-1/

Did he use the Dragonfly stance with the sword over his head? Did he scoop the cake up in the air and made quick slices, which fell dead center onto each individual person’s plate? XD

I still wonder about using a katana to cut into a cake, but ah well, if it rocks their boat. XD
The cake IS lovely, though! Is it a mix of fondant and that paper-thing they print images onto? And were the little microbes edible? :D

I thought the cake was adorable, and I enjoyed eating it. ^-^

As long as you enjoyed it that was fine. People have different interests and things that impress some won’t remotely make a difference to others.
