Can someone tell me what song that was or the game it was from?? I know I recognize it but the feedback keeps throwing me off. It's going to bother me all day now.... Anyway, very amusing video. I really liked the Sailor Stars girls. Maybe I'll make it out to Anime Expo next year while I'm still relatively close to LA. |

I got a laugh out of it for sure. Good job. 
I definitely have to go to a convention one of these years. They look like an absolute blast. |

Does anyone know what characters was cosplayed? i cannot recognize all of them. It doesn't help that my connection isn't good enough to even stream.

Did that Iron Man cosplayer do what it looks like he did?

Okay, I know I shouldn't let people on the intarwebz get under my skin, but I have to reply to this :/
Cosplayers almost ALWAYS not only watch/read the anime or manga their costume is from, they generally LOVE said materials. Part of the point of cosplay is to express your liking for a show/story. Even if they aren't terribly familiar with the show (i.e. cosplaying to match with a friend etc.), the whole point is to have fun :/
I really don't think it's justifiable to call someone a "creep" or a "freak" just because they know how to enjoy themselves at a con. I know there are some socially-awkward cosplayers out there, but again, the hobby is all about having fun and sharing your love of anime. Don't be so negative about something like that.
Because OMG REAL ANIME FANS CAN RECOGNIZE EVARY CHARACTER EVAR CREATED!!!! It's pretty common practice to note who you're cosplaying, even if you look like the character's identical twin. That way you can help people who are intrigued by the costume find the original source material. In this case, it's just like saying "hi, my name is Lauren" so that people can recognize you.
And it's people who spend their time spouting negative crap like this that discourage new anime fans from even approaching the older fan community! It's okay if you don't like someone's costume or disagree with the things they like - everyone's entitled to an opinion. But to act like the whole experience would be far too trying for an anime fan of your implied caliber to put up with the "posers" to even enjoy the con... Well, that says more about you than it does about the other attendees, that's for sure.
Sorry to sink down to your level, but... Jerk :/ IN OTHER NEWS: There were some really cute and/or awesome costumes this year. I've attended Otakon multiple times but have yet to brave the crowds at AX. Maybe next year :) Nice job, Bamboo~ |

The song he was playing was Tifa's theme from FFVII. :-p |

And this is why I love anime. Because the fans of it, including me, are all nuts.

Aww, don't be a hater, man. Cosplayers are awesome, and I admire them for all their dedication and creativity. Even I cosplay, so don't lump me into the freaks category!
Also, the reason why a lot of them mentioned who they were cosplaying is because I asked them to. That way, even people who aren't familiar with the series can know what their costumes are from. |

I don't know who's in the costume, but she's dressed as Hatsune Miku. Very cute singing~ But the Elizabeth and Katsura are my favorites. Win. |

Thank you! I'm glad you like it and it made you laugh. 
And you should definitely go to a convention sometime. They're amazing. |

I thought the same thing.
Greatly enjoyed the feature, though. It's one of my favorite things that pops up after a big con. Miku's singing was great! |
