Long overdue post of Animaritime 2018

Hey gang,

So back in the massive heat that was the summer past, I once again attended Animaritime. It was absolutely fantastic, I met a bunch of great people, and it is a darn shame it has taken me this long to get the few photos I snapped up.

Why it took so long? Combination of a bunch of things, but it mostly boils down to me being still bummed out about some sad events over the summer, that took a bit of time to process. Also, my Twitch streaming had really taken off, and I was getting a bit overwhelmed.

So without all that sad stuff, let us get into the goods and show of some of the Cosplay I loved at the convention. I was still pretty shy about asking people for pictures. There were many cosplayers that I thought were amazing, but I didn’t recognize the characters. I typically only snap pics of characters I know.

I am not a professional photographer, so I apologize they are not super well taken, but I love Cosplay. As usual, I asked permission to post these on time, and if you see yourself in these, want your name attributed to them (and any corresponding social media links) just drop me a line. Also, happy to take them down, on request of the cosplayer or legal guardian.

Dabi and Hikimo Toga from My Hero Academia

Calamity as The Inquisitor from Dragon Age: Inquisition

Alphones from Full Metal Alchemist

Edward from Full Metal Alchemist

Squriel Girl – the only person that might defeat One Punch Man

Winter Soldier – of Marvel Fame

Slave Leia, Spidey, and Captian America

Spider-Girl and Spider-Gwen

Grunkle Stan and Mable – Gravity Falls (Seriously, watch that show. It is awesome)

Takasugi Shinsuke – Gintama

Ainsworth – The Ancient Magus Bride

King Kamoshida – Persona 5

Tonberry and Black Mage – Mostly from my nightmares of Final Fantasy games

Violet – The Incredibles

This one. Ok. Really. When I was walking to the con I said to my wife “I’d love to see a good cosplay of Blue Snow from Shimoneta, but it won’t happen.” But here we are.

Fantastic year at the con. Can not wait until next year. In one week I’ll be hitting Halcon 2018, and hopefully get loads more pictures.
