Whoa, how cool~~ I can't believe Nagoya had such a huge cosplay event and I never knew! (is that Osu Kannon?)

So happy to see Maid Sama! cosplayers~ Anime hyper

And interestingly, there weren't that many Hetalia cosplayers... Considering at AX, you couldn't go two steps without running into one, that's kind of surprising. I wonder if Hetalia is more popular in the US/west than Japan?

So Link and Ganondorf won with a Final Fantasy character winning best costume.

Yep, just like at anime conventions in the States, more people are cosplaying video games than actual anime.

The Commentary is in English, and the vid is good...
