Last part, with a few pictures from A Fan's View. I went through ALL the cosplay pictures trying to find the Death Note cosplayers, but no dice. Ah well, there are costumes I remember that didn't get on the many, many pages of photos, and costumes on those pages that I don't remember seeing at all.

Because I had no camera, I have to rely on the guy who does A Fan's View to highlight some cosplayers that I know or that I thought were really good or have somethng funny to say or WHATEVER.

This is

tesstrosa's husband,

darkisawa, dressed as Jiraiya. The back of teh chair you can see in the left foreground is, if I am correct, the back of the chair I was sitting in, so you can see how I have yet again been just outside a picture posted on Fansview.

A pretty good Rock Lee and Kakashi. For those of you who don't watch or read Naruto, Kakashi is addicted to porn manga and carries a book around all the time, which means that most of the Kakashi cosplayers blundered about with books in front of their faces.

More Naruto pics, with

darkisawa as Jiraiya and

tesstrosa as the better Tsunade on the right. Why is she better than the Tsunade on the left? This picture I did is a fairly accurate representation of Tsunade. I trust you'll be able to figure it out.

A Lust from FMA who I thought was good.

This is AngelicPanda from DeviantArt, who I know.

A sextet of Ichigos. Yes, Bleach is starting to be a popular series. I expect to see more of this next year.

There is something not quite right about the scale here...

Girl-type Naruto materializing in a puff of smoke.

The Ghostbusters showed up.

The box of Pocky

I don't know what the hell this is, but it's really good.

O.o.

Let's look at that again.

That Tsunade...er...well, I'll defend to the death any large person's right to cosplay as someone tiny and/or scantily-tho-decently-clad if they want to--especially if they actually put some effort into the costume and don't carry one of those goddamn fucking "glomp me signs" ::strangles::--so I suppose it'd be hypocritical of me to boggle at the tall, slender, modestly endowed Tsunade. >_>

Still, given that there are a lot more tall, skinny characters to cosplay than large-breasted women with proportionately large bodies, you gotta wonder why she picked that one. Maybe she was Tsunade on Chouji's scary pills?

I was wondering that myself. Maybe she wanted to do a Naruto character and didn't waht to dye her blonde hair or wear a wig?

It's certainly not a bad costume by any means - she did a great job with it. It's just that with a whole wide variety of possibilities open to her as a tall, thin woman, she chooses Tsunade? I can't tell her age at all from the pic - maybe she wanted to cosplay someone closer to her age than the average anime character, or perhaps Tsunade is very close to her personality and she wanted to cosplay her because of that. I think I'd at least have stuffed my bra, though. :)
