Well I'll just add my comment where I have some.  I think I have a lot of
them though. (^_^)

Before the event:

Well I arrived at the hall at about 9:30 am.  I knew this was the place the
event was at because of a guy holding a Mokona doll and some others holding
Chacha signs.

The crowd in line was not what I expected.  Many of them had longer hair and
were smoking cigarettes.  I don't know why but I expected them to be well...
you know.

I was number 39 in line.

Right at the start of the event, just after I found a seat, I saw a whole
bunch of people run to the back of the auditorium where they had some
Megapara posters set up.  I had to see what was going on so I too ran back.
They were pre-selling copies of the Megami Paradise 2 LD which will come out
it August.  For pre-reserving one you get a special "event only"
signature from Shiratori Yuri included in the LD!!  Of course the 1,000yen
down-payment came out of my pocket in a hurry. :)

Before the talk the mc talked to the audience about pictures and videos, etc.
Then he asked the group if anyone knew Yuri's nick-name.  A guy in the
audience yelled out "Yuri-chan."  The MC told everyone to practice
yelling her name and the whole crowd yelled the name.  After the practice
the audience (myself included) yelled "Yuri-chan" as loud as they could and
she came out from the left side.

At first Yuri was having microphone difficulties.  Her and the MC
switched microphones and then a guy on the right side showed up with a
new on for the MC.  The whole bit was really funny, Yuri couldn't stop
laughing as she tried to speak into the microphone and no sound came out.

The dress was white with very fine brown line on it in a criss-cross pattern.
She was wearing a white beret-type hat, the kind she always wears.  Her bangs
were hanging down in the front and her hair in the back seemed to be a little
longer than recent pictures I'd seen.  Mabye she decided to grow her hair
long again? (^_^)

After this they started talking about Yuri-chan's favourite food.  She said
it was ramen and then continued to joke about what kind and how sometimes she
will just taste a bit of ramen and she can't help devouring the whole thing.


...after the showing of Megami Paradise 2, Yuri commented that this one is
kind of ecchi.

I couldn't hear them.  I wanted to ask a question, but I was too slow. =(

I couldn't hear it. =(  The quiz bit with Yuri having *a lot* of fun with
the buzzer was hilarious =D  I was laughing so hard when Yuri would hit the
losing buzzer over and over.  The last two contestents couldn't get ANY
of the questions right.
