Would you love to show off your awesome cosplay? When you register for the cosplay contest, you will be given a chance to show off your costume on stage! If you'd rather not be judged we also have an exhibition category as well.
 
This year's theme is Retro Anime from 1980's through 1990's. Mitsuki and Kitsuba would love to see what you come up with! Note you do not have to be from something in this period but there will be a special award for anyone that falls in this category!
