This is the first Japan Town Anime Faire held in San Francisco. It's basically a mini-anime convention held by "The World of Anime."
It was a fun small con, I got to see all of my local friends and met a few new ones.
And to buck conventional wisdom, JTAF even held their masquerade contest on Sunday! I entered and won 4th place! Woohoo. I got some nice prizes.
More of my ramblings can be found on my LiveJournal.
Anyway, who cares about that, on with the photos! :)
The cosplay group photo. With everyone in costume on Saturday!
