So Lupin IV and I were able to stop by Otakon Saturday and  take some fan photos. Unfortunately due to scheduling we were only able to stop by for one day so we missed most of the panels. I did notice that the staff this year were much nicer and better informed than the previous year; a huge plus for me and any other fans for sure. Read More to checkout the fan photos.

On July 25th 2009, from 10am to 4pm, Tokyo's Cafe & Bar DiCE! will be turned into a place of terror, borne from the stuff of nightmares. It will turn into Aokazetei, a full-body kigurumi cosplay waitress cafe.

For the fortunate few who are unaware, "kigurumi" cosplay can be best described as mascot cosplay, wherein the cosplayer dons a full-body suit and mask. While the term itself is quite general, covering everything from mecha cosplay to the sorts of animal suits worn by furry enthusiasts, this particular variant concentrates on wearing full facemasks with the design proportions to suit the characters and costumes.

I can imagine it now, a kigurumi waitress approaching your table and asking for your order, the voice muffled by the freakish, dead-eyed mask. Gah! Well...at least they're not inflating themselves.

Hit the gallery for psychological trauma.

Gothic Lolita Day was held over at my favorite Japanese Bookstore Kinukoniya; located on 6th Avenue and 41st. Street. I unfortunately was only able to attend the latter half of the event and had missed the bulk of the crowds. I must admit that I know very little about this particular fashion movement I am an anime/figure collector.  The attendees were extremely friendly and willing to share their experience and knowledge with me. I found that everyone was having a great time and for me the subject matter is great for photography. So without further ado here are the photos a took. Enjoy!
