COSPLAY!!!

Yes, Cora, get excited.

I went to a cosplay fiesta in the Buenos Aires Japanese garden.

For those who don't know, Cosplay is technically a Japanese derived from the forced cross-breeding of costume and play that results in a wonky little baby word that they parent words are really quite unsure what to do with.
Observe:
Generally speaking, people pick a character from an anime show or videogame and try their damndest to look just like them. It was pretty much like the above picture all over this rather large park. People in outrageous costume, general uncertainty when it came to gender. That one with the pink hair is male, for instance.

It's has an internet reputation of being hyper-dorky. This is baroque dork. And, of course, like all things in the world, it has an internet fetish life, which is roundly ridiculed by humor website all over the web.


The following picture really sums it up for me:

On the right is the good of Cosplay and on the left is the... something.

I went there actually to see my friend Silia, who was to play the Queen of Hearts (Alice in Wonderland) in some theater they were doing.

Yes, Silia (with the blue hair) is quite strange. I'm shit with names so I can't tell you the name of the girl on the right, but her red hair is a nice contrast, don't you agree?

Fans of the series will enjoy:

That was really directed at Ian and Co. if they're tuning in. That's a rather life-like Naruto image, a the main character from a series of the same name.

There were some high quality costumes running around. People started freaking out when this little guy showed up:
Apparently from Kingdom Hearts. And quite popular.

I think that's all for now. Photos from gaymusicvideodanceathon at a later date. They're on my facebook for any interested parties.
