Jaco Halloween Bash
Jaco Halloween Bash 2003

On October 25th, at UCF in Orlando, Florida, my friend Eve, her brother Parks, and myself(Christi) attended the Jaco Halloween Bash. As per all my reports, I brought my camera, took pictures, and cosplayed. The con was very short, only from 7pm to midnight, so there aren't too many pictures, but there are a good amount.
If you have any questions, requests, or comments, feel free to email me at: urd_sake@hotmail.com. Enjoy!
This is a picture of me as Vicious from Cowboy Bebop. I'm a lazy, lazy person, so I wore jeans instead of the black pants I was supposed to wear. Hey, it still looked good, right? The wig was hell, though.
~
This is a picture of our good friend, Heidi, in another Rayearth costume! ^_^ Twas very cute. :)
~
And here is a pic of Eve as Edward Wong Hau Peppelu Tivrusky IV from Cowboy Bebop! (Yes, she did borrow my Ein plushie.)
~
Eve's little brother, Parks, tagged along with us. He cosplayed as Shigure Sohma from Fruits Basket, and yes, we did tie a giant stuffed animal dog onto his back. ^_~
~
These two were the very first cosplayers I saw that I took a picture of. They're Naruto and Sasuke from Naruto!
~
This girl cosplayed as Sir Integral Wingates Hellsing from Hellsing. There were a lot of Hellsing/Battle Royale cosplayers there- I suspect because of the Halloween theme.
~
I'm going to collectively marry each of these girls at the next Con. They all cosplayed as their favorite Angel Sanctuary characters- from the right, Katan, Kurai, and Setsuna. I stalked them for a good amount of time of the night.
~
Now, this was an incredibly risky costume to make, especially at an Anime Convention. This girl cosplayed as Britney Spears via the MTV 2003 VMA's. It was an awesome costume, I must say, even though a lot of people found it to be a "disgrace" to wear at an anime con. *rolls eyes*
~
IT'S ZELGADIS FROM SLAYERS!!! I worship this girl. I also stalked her for about half of the Con. o.o
~
This guy was lots an' lots of fun. ^_^ I recognized his costume as a character from One Piece, although the exact characters' name escapes me at the moment.
~
WHEE! These two girls cosplayed as Ryuichi(left) and Tohma(right) from Gravitation. I stalked Tohma. I stalked a LOT of people there.
~
Obligatory Jason-gropes-a-random-otaku picture. He cosplayed as Toshiya from Dir En Grey, although in this pic, he wasn't wearing the wig. I didn't get a good pic of him in the wig. ;_;
~
...It's Trogdor the Burninator from HomeStarRunner.com. Eating pizza. ....... I chased her for a while with my sword and tried to skewer her on it, but sadly, the sword is made of plastic. ><
~
This girl cosplayed as Haruko from FLCL! ^____^ She didn't have her guitar, though. :(
~
These two cosplayed as characters from the Hwllsing manga. To the left is my buddy, Erin! ^.^
~
I think this girl cosplayed as a character from Final Fantasy... although, I don't really need to know that. I just need to stare at the prettyness of the costume. She won the 1st place award in the costume contest. ^_^
~
This guy did an awesome job on his Big O costume. We had an interesting conversation about Vicious being a lesbian with Julia and how it would make a good fanfiction. *grins*
~
YAOI! Er... yuri! Er... whatever. Tohma and Ryuichi share an intimate moment with a lollipop.
~
It's Harry Potter on the Quidditch team. He got hit with a bludger. Owch.
~
*deep breath* IT'S KENSHIIIIIIIIIIIIN~!!!!!!!!
~
Fun with the Battle Royale cosplayers! :D (At least, I think they were from Battle Royale... I could be wrong.)
~
This guy got shot... and I took a picture of him... because dead people rule. O_O
~
OF COURSE Jason had to grope one of the Battle Royale cosplayers.
~
And as the last picture of the night, a photo of my friend Samantha, who cosplayed as Sailor Mars from Bishoujo Senshi Sailor Moon! ^_~
~
I'm thinking that the next couple of conventions I go to will be Anime Express in Daytona, FL, and MegaCon in Orlando, FL. Make sure to look for me at these conventions and keep up with my convention reports! ^_^
