With the recent boom in cosplay in Japan, enthusiasts are getting more and more chances to cosplay in front of an audience, and even without the space to spread out that they’d expected to have, they struck all manner of graceful and cool poses as we snapped away. Despite the cramped quarters, the energy level remained high and the costumes dry. Once rain started to fall, though, Wonder Festival staff quickly set up in indoor area and herded everyone out of the elements. Given the cold snap that Japan’s been going through, we were a little worried about the cosplayers catching a cold, especially given all of the exposed flesh that comes with some of the more daring outfits. Since the majority of the floor space at Wonder Festival is reserved for model kit exhibitors, the designated cosplay and photo shoot zone was supposed to be set up outdoors. One of those cameras happened to be ours. But while the plastic and resin replicas of anime and video game icons may be the ostensible reason for the event, there’s also plenty of flesh and blood (and cloth) passion for the industries’ hottest franchises as cosplayers converge on the convention to show off their costumes and pose for the cameras. Last weekend it was time for Wonder Festival, the garage kit and model extravaganza held in Chiba Prefecture’s Makuhari Messe.
