Nipponbashi Street Festa, Osaka

Known as Den-Den Town by the locals, this huge street lined with electrical goods stores is closed off for the day for the Cosplay festival.


This is a chance for the kids (and adults who should know better) to express themselves through fancy dress. Costumes of choice range from manga/anime characters to maids, pirates, puritans and wanton schoolgirls (more on those below).


My favourite hair of the day





Finding some small children to frighten





My kind of stag do


Um, yeah...


If the Power Rangers were sexy







Yes, this is what happens when you send your kids to school six days a week









It's Mr Burns as a schoolboy, minus the ringlets and lollypop!



Crossdressing is a common theme in Cosplay









Cowgirls and tentacles
