These are the shots from the huge annual manga convention held in Tokyo in August, 2007. I ain't crazy about comic and didn't recognize any of the characters (except Super Mario Brothers and Dragon Ball LOL), but it turned out to be a lot of fun photographing them.<BR> <BR> I don't know how they started these cosplay (Costume Play: dressing up like comic characters). They must be all amateur and I don't think any of them make money out of it. It's also very 'painful' to me to look at those 30sh and 40sh dudes dressing up like teenage girl in uniform (sorry no photo).
Taken by takezzo with a Lomo LC-A loaded with Konica Centuria 200 film in Tokyo, Japan. These tags describe this photo: Anime, Costume, Manga, LC-A, Festival, Otaku, Comic and Cosplay. This photo can also be found in the album [LC-A] Manga Convention.
