Point Zero: Redefining Otaku

Celestial Being Deploying at Cosplay Challenge 09!!

Cosplay Challenge 09 at the Singapore Discovery Center ended with the mind blowing appearance of Strike Freedom Gundam by Goldy-san.

Organised by the Singapore Cosplay Club, the Cosplay Challenge was the first of its kind to introduce cosplay workshops in additions to the usual event format.

Although this was the event’s first year and with SOYA running concurrently with it, Cosplay Challenge still attracted a crowd of visitors to the Singapore Discovery Center.  However sadly I believe due to SOYA, many cosplayer arrived  later in the evening  from SOYA , hopefully this will be the last time where two cosplay events are being run concurrently.

As for Cosplay Challenge 09, in my opinion is a very good idea.   There is much room for the event to grow and I look forward to next year’s Cosplay Challenge.

Here are some of the highlights of Cosplay Challenge 09.
