Japan’s most famous Otaku culture blogger Danny Choo invited video games/anime/manga/Cosplay/figures/maid cafe fanatics from all over the country last weekend, and about 200 showed up at Digital Hollywood University for the eighth “CGM Night” (here’s my report on the last one).

There was a plethora of cool figures, wild costumes, famous Otaku “idols” etc. at the event. Here are some Cosplay fans:
