Alrites.. today AFA's coverage is abt the cosplayers! its a short post compared to my other AFA reports.. most of the animes i watched are the mainstreams ones.. bleach, gundams, naruto etc.. so i can't really tell you exactly who's cosplaying who.. heh. sorry abt that. Abt those that appeared in my photos.. i jus happened to meet them whilst moving ard AFA.. they're jus the tip of the iceberg. im glad that there's alot more cosplayers this year compared to last.. jap culture is spreading!! =D for those who's more interested in cosplayers, i think chubbybots has covered more cosplayers at the event den me.. so feel free to visit his blog at the my blogroll. =) For 00 Raiser Gundam and Mirai's cosplay, i've allocated a post each for them on Day Two of AFA.. so they'll be up soon. ^^

events to make it more worth. XD even tho tako has very small head,
(unlike real normal takosss) the size is still a little small for her.
