This weekend, the bi-annual Wonder Festival, an event for video game and anime figurines and sculptures, roared through Tokyo. And whenever there’s a nerd gathering, there’s gonna be cosplay.
Sister site Kotaku Japan and website Gigazine were on hand to check out the festivities, the figures, and the costumes.
Seriously why do people think that these masks make the costume more complete? Shouldn’t cosplay be about bringing a character to life rather than turning life in to a character?
