Katsucon Day Two - Costume Contest - Feb. 28, 1998
The hall outside the Plaza East room of the Radisson Plaza Hotel
at Mark Center looked as if someone opened the box that stores all the
anime characters and forgot to close the lid. At least half the people
in the hall were wearing elaborate costumes. The other half had cameras
and were taking pictures of the people in the elaborate costumes. The scene
marked the final moments before the Katsucon 4 costume contest. The costumed
fans nervously waited, a few rehearsing and others checking their clothes.
The rest of the crowd jockeyed for position in the line to get inside the
Plaza East room. Then, the doors opened, the crowd rushed in, and the world
was changed by the strange sights inside...
