Manifest Day 1: 3,2,1 Lets Jam

Today the members of TAHO went to the biggest anime con Melbourne has to offer. Lucky for us our school had a day off so we were free to visit the showgrounds and empty our wallets. Yes, we realise this is only the first day of this weekend of non stop anime fun but some of us… May have spent a little more then we should have.

This year the event was hosted at the Melbourne showground instead of Melbourne University. Lucky for this change we have plenty of breathing space within the traders hall, ignoring the fact that Friday would be the least busy day.

Yes, all the writers of this blog cosplayed this year. We went as the male cast of Clannad: Passing Sparrow as Sunohara, Envy1138 as Tomoya and I as Akio. We were glad to have follow convention goers recognise our characters since, cosplayers in Australia generally go for the more popular series.

Anyway here are some pictures from the event:
