Halloween at Kansai Gaidai

Sorry for not updating yesterday. I was quite busy. I did take pictures in SUMI E though.



More rocky landscapes...


Plum to relax after landscapes...


Today, Kansai Gaidai celebrated Halloween. Regular Japanese don't dress up or celebrate, but they do here at KGU.


Phillip as Michael Jackson.



Cross-dressers... One of the categories in the costume contest. There's cross-dressing, horror, group, and funny.



I decided to dress up as Alice in Wonderland. I dunno, but the character seems to speak to me in my current situation. A girl wandering about a strange world and just trying to understand the meanings behind things.


Malaika and Megan! Oh my gosh! They cross-dressed and were really convincing!

Me as Alice with the Queen of Clubs...



"No pictures please."
Michael Jackson, Blanket, Spock, and Michael Jackson. (Jade, Theresa, and Tizzy)



Suki as an adorable maid!


Michael Jackson (Phillip) got a fro...


Michael Jackson (Jade) attacking a defenseless angel....


Surrounded by Michaels...





That fro sure gets around...


Banana Fro...




With some time to kill... Alex and I wandered into the Asian gardens on campus...









Brittany as a ninja.



Me, Misaki, and Alex.


Michael, Michael, and Blanket...


Spock and Kirk.



Pikachus everywhere you look...







So many!


Three Alices! Raven, Blonde, Brunette...



Brooke the Banana.


Lindsey.


Me and Peter as Piccollo.


Me and Elyse.


Merri.


My Popular Media and Culture Class. The professor was "Eye Ball Daddy" from Ge Ge Ge No Ketaro. "Eye am watching you," he says.


Saw.


Ayano!




Stitch!






To drink or not to drink?





Mei as Toad from Mario Kart.



I found some other Wonderland people!




They took pictures of all the contestants.





Then everyone voted on which person/ group for each category.
















I found the rest of the Wonderland group.


Through the looking glass...



Their whole group.


Balloon grape man. Notice the balloons not blown up on his head...


Yumika and Alex.






Lady Gaga cross-dresser.








So the actual ceremony was tonight about 7ish.


A lot of people were there.



Zombie girl, winner of horror category.














After each contestant walked the runway, they announced the finalists from the vote. Then had the judges vote by placing paper cranes in a folder taped to the backs of the finalists.





Lady Gaga won for best cross dresser.


Malaika and Megan won for overall best costume and performance.

Overall, it was a lot of fun and now I'm tired. Goodnight.
