Fanime 2012 Day 3

Here’s Day 3 of Fanime 2012. My Shots are better this time around since I actually remembered to setup my camera, and I didn’t cosplay for the full day. I didn’t take as many pictures again due to some of the events I went to like the Black and White and of course the Speed Dating.

(As always if you see yourself in any of my pictures, and would like me to give credit or remove the picture let me know, and I’ll be happy to do it. Also if you know the name of any characters that I don’t know which series they are from or their name or if I wrongly label a character feel free to let me know so I can make the changes).

Another shot of Boa, but this time with Robin who is also from One Piece.

Now Sailor Moon is a pretty well known character, and cosplayed by many, but not that many people ever dress as Sailor Moon in her Mid transformation sequence. So props to who ever this cosplayer is for dressing as a rarely seen side of Sailor Moon.

Jax and Daxter from the Game Jax and Daxter. Another rarely seen cosplay it’s good to see Cosplayers who dress up as old school favorites.

I decided to take part of the Speed Dating at Fanime this year. This was one of the lovely ladies I met there. To keep the individuals identity a secret I used my Servbot head to keep her identity hidden.

After a day of Cosplaying, taking shots of Cosplayers, and attending the Speed Dating session we decided to stop by and eat at Original Joe’s.

They had a huge selection of foods to pick ranging from sandwiches, Steak, to even Spaghetti. I decided to pick the Spaghetti with a Meatball and Italian Sausage which was their specialty.

If you’re on a budget while visiting Fanime or San Jose this place is definitely not the place to go. The Prices are quite high, but the foods taste and quantity definitely matches the price. I was barely able to even finish half of it before I was stuffed.

Character Unknown, but interesting cosplay nonetheless.
