There were stalls everywhere with games, figurines and the most attractive thing, cosplayers around the place! I was so excited I forgot about lunch. SenzO told me that his camera died so we had to rely on mine. We strolled around the Cosplay Hangout Area and took pictures, I noticed quite a few anime characters I recognise but was still disappointed by the number of cosplayers there. There was Naruto, Bleach, Death Note, Rozen Maiden, Macross Frontier and many more. Probably the most number of cosplayers for an anime was Soul Eater.
We went around the stands and people were giving away free stuff. There was also a Nintendo corner where visitors get to try out Nintendo Wii and Nintendo DS. SenzO got attracted by the group of people playing some computer games and I stuck around watching some poeple play Grand Theif Auto 4.
Later I saw the cutest thing ever! Haruhi figures! In chibi too! EEEEKK!! I wanted to but them so badly but a voice in me was making me hesitate. At the end, I did not buy any of them... T^T
There was a doujin area where doujinkas display there art and stuff. Soon, the cosplay competition started. Cosplayers got on stage one by one to pose and answer questions by the judges and then they did a sketch. Some of the cosplayers did a good job cosplaying but failed to express the original character of the anime.
Example:
Judge: What will you eat if you are hungry?
L cosplayer: Er... A burger?
Nooo!! He'll totally get a big fat "O" if I were a judge! Later was another bad contestant, the cosplayer of Nell from Bleach did a sketch which was not realted to Bleach at all! It was a lame sketch which made me sick watching it!
After the judges announced the winner and all (I forgot who won and all...). The cosplayers did a group photo and danced this dance which just involved moving your hands on your head and swing your head cutely from left and right. SenzO told me that it's called Caramelldansen.
After the event, we had a last look at gamers playing Left For Dead. Then my dad came and pick me and SenzO up. I joked that there should be a game called Left to Live next.

A group of Macross Frontier cosplayers and Enma Ai (Jigoku Shoujo; bottom center).
The doujin area. Look closely and you'll see Death the Kid and Patty (Soul Eater). The other cosplayers are unknown to me.
The really cool and amazing Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuutsu figures. They are very flexible and the art work was done nicely.
Now in chibi version!
Some kid playing the GTA4 for XBox.
The sucky sketch done by the Bleach group. The costumes were great but they waisted it on a lame sketch. So disappointing.
Shinigami-sama (Soul Eater)

Random girl in kimono.

"Kage bunshi no jutsu!"
