Masquerade Gallery 7

The most popular event at Anime Expo every year is the masquerade. With approximately 60 entrants and a packed theatre and simulcast room, the masquerade was as popular as ever this year. Viewers were treated to a spectacle of well-constructed costumes, funny acts, and some simply awesome work. The masquerade was run particularly well this year, starting only a mere 15 minutes late. Here are just a sampling of pictures from that event, of the cosplayers and of the awards and judges, as well as the music video contest awards that took place during the interim.

Descriptions are lacking for most of these pictures at this time. If you would like to contribute a caption to a captionless picture (especially if you are one of the cosplayers shown in the photos), please send an email to jnishi@i360.com with the gallery page number (1 through 7), image filename (or link), and the desired caption. If the caption is approved, it will be added to the picture in a future update.
