Tofu Festival

The Tofu Festival, held in Little Tokyo, Los Angeles, CA, on August 18 & 19th 2007.
Due to poor planning and bad traffic I missed much of the festival, including the sumo wrestling and yummy, yummy tofu (bleh). However I got there in time to see what I wanted, the Cosplay Contest and Parade. Here are some of the (good) pictures I took:

Cosplay Contest: Only 12 entries?

The Cosplayers would stop every once in a while and a group would do the 'Hare Hare' dance.
