as you can see about half of them are mecha- kind of characters
and the costumes are so elaborate makes the judges have a hard time deciding.
The outcome was quite surprsing.
i didn't expect the final 2 to be locals.
Zander vs. Roy |
oh well, i could guess so, since maybe this is STGCC... Western...
hmm... and first time i realised the characters are from online games and movies...
unlike AFA, the characters are completely from animes and their game counterparts...
kipi and jacky dosai gave away special prizes to their favourite cosplay
kipi gave her special kipi prize to Nikki..
it was a Haruhi Suzumiya costume...
if you don't know what anime is that...
the exact costume that she is wearing here... the banner!~ |
before i end, i have to talk about my haul!
not a big fish like other people i've seen.
they got toys, collectibles, swords, posters, shirts... etc.

i bought it before we went to see the cosplay... i was wearing it during the whole time we were at Suntec.. :)
