Thousands of Japanese anime fans gathered in Raleigh for Animazement 2016, and we had fun exploring the convention's panels, autograph sessions, concerts, masquerades, and dance events. And of course, a lot of costumes portraying cool characters from the anime/manga, comic books, movies, and video games that we love.
The four-day event (May 26-29) took place at the Raleigh Convention Center. The Animazement website describes the convention as "an all-volunteer, fan-run anime convention…celebrating popular Japanese visual culture in all of its forms."
Check out the cosplay photos in the gallery below:

According to the site, the history of Animazement began in 1997, when TAAS (Triangle Area Anime Society) held the first 36-Hour Anime Marathon event.
