Female bot based on the art of
Hajime Sorayama. Too bad she
didn't join us for the parade. Unfortunately her shoes does not
facilitate walking for a couple of miles. :/

Some just amazing costumes from the series Galaxy Fraulein Yuna. They
were really nice especially when I asked them how they made the
costumes. Lots of people were asking them about that. :) They also
had a pit crew of sorts, their moms! They were in an almost constant
need of repair, touch ups, just help doing things because their
costumes were so bulky. But it sure looks worth it!

And for more of your bot anime pleasure, Gundam! He had a great
costume. I wish I took some more photos actually. :( The wings
actually come out! He won first place in the costume contest!
Congratulations!

All of the bots together! :D

Some photo fun with the participants of the Cherry Blossom Festival.

The Taiko drum float that was behind the anime float.
|
The lucky cosplayers who were asked to be on the anime float.
Apparently, it was a bit of challenge being on that float since all
of the costumes were a little bulky with wings and props and such.
Chris (the Gundam) was tell me that you realy couldn't move too much
since you'd bump into someone's costume! 8-O

The costume judging line. There were a lot of people in costume that
day. We must have scared the locals... well maybe not, it is San
Francisco. :) *

The parade from my point of view. :) There was a *whole* lot of
people when we walked through Japantown. It was fun. :D
