Yes it's another news post from me, don't worry I won't let this become a habit. However you may be interested in a short documentary about a normal guy taking his first trip to a UK anime convention and trying out Cosplay.
This 15-minute version is available to view free online, and apparently a 40-minute version is forthcoming. I for one am glad to see some nice UK cosplay video coverage where I didn't have to edit it myself ^_^
That was an awesome watch,
That was an awesome watch, it's getting me psyched up for kita now :D

It'd be fun if these docs were done at each con, I'll be on the look-out for someone walking around doing interviews at kita ;)

I was in that D.Gray-man group! I was the Lenalee with blonde hair holding the sketch book! Can't believe I was in a documentary and didn't know it :D
I'm glad that you enjoyed yourself Adam ^_^
Awesome :3
I loved it xD Kitacon was amazing last year, and i'm glad he had a good time xD
Documentaries like this will definatly help agains the the view most people have of anime conventions and its congoers.
Also i saw my cosplay for a few seconds in the background, so naturaly i'd love it <3
