The internet gives cosplayers a hard time, but there are a few key events each year in America that have good cosplay. Los Angeles’ Anime Expo is definitely one of them. We make it a point to go out every year and cover the event for sister site Japanator, and snapping cosplay photos is a big part of that coverage.

This year we got some amazing shots from the event floor over this past holiday weekend. We have four galleries of great stuff, much of which is videogame based. I’ve picked out some of my favorites for our gallery, but you should definitely check out Japanator’s four galleries for a better look.

We’re already packing our cameras for the other summer events like Comic-con and Otakon. We’ll be back with more. I’m still looking for that amazing Ivy that I saw a few years back.
