These photos were taken at ACEN Anime Central in 2009 on May 8-10 at the Hyatt Regency O’Hare and the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center in Rosemont, Illinois. I took these photos on my own by asking people for a chance to take their photo.

Anime central is a place were people come together that like the Japanese creation of Anime; their version of an adult cartoon you can say. People come to buy Anime related merchandise, cosplay, go to discussion panels, talk to people, speed date, enter video game tournaments, play Trading Card Games games, just plain hang out, and way more than i can list!

Coplaying, for people that dont know, is when people dress up as anime characters, video game characters, Comic Book characters, Anything Japanese related, Etc.

I would like to thank all the cosplayers that agreed to have their photo taken by me, thanks!!! These photos are here for pure entertainment and to show off how hard they worked on their costumes and how wonderful they look.

Thank you all again!
