Live from Anime NYC, it’s Cosplayers Getting Coffee!

At the Saturday panel for this year’s Anime NYC, CGC presented its very first live episode — hosted by Yalda Mostrajeran (@yaldamn) — to a room packed with anime and cosplay fans.

During the episode, the panel of cosplayers discussed their cosplays, debated superior anime characters (Hisoka or Sasuke Uchiha?), described popular animes in 10 seconds or less, and gave their all during a rousing, charades-style game called Cos-Pressions.

Check out the four fantastic cosplayers below, and then watch some highlights from the action-packed episode!

Continuing the JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure representation, Marjoan (@marjoanofarc_) cosplayed as Trish Una. Of course, she rocked the character’s shiny, colorful skirt and even more colorful pink hair.
