ACen Adventures | ACen 2005 Pictures

These are all 339 pictures taken by the ACen Guys at Anime Central 2005. This year was very lackluster with the pictures, but there are some gems here and there. As every year, every single picture has a commentary from ACen Guy Brown (Matt) and occasional comments by ACen Guy EricB (Eric), ACen Gal Jill (Jill), ACen Guy Jimjitsu (Jim), ACen Guy Ronin (Joe), ACen Guy Masamune (Chris), ACen Guy Scarecrow (Kevin), and ACen Guy Zeltron (Bob). We hope you enjoy this years pictures and our gradual descent into pornography. Also please be patient as the pictures may take a while to load.

As I said we didn't stay long in the Dealer's Room. While we headed out we snapped a picture of this Sailor Moon cosplayer. I really like this picture because it's so colorful and bright.

The lighting lends itself well to the colorful and well done cosplay.

ACen Guy Joe showing his street cred... or is he showing his initial? You be the judge. I like the guy in the background looking at him, he has an absolute look of disgust. I wonder how many 'Norms' we freaked out this year?

I love freaking out 'Norms'. Yeah, look at how damn many of us otaku there are! Look, and shudder, and whimper.

Trainee Ping took the camera away from me and snapped this picture. I don't know who she's cosplying, but I'll take a stab in the dark... someone from Street Fighter. I'm sure someone will correct me. Also of note, around this time is when Eurobeat King of Cosplay.com took pictures of me, Joe, and Ping in our Mario costumes. The only reason he got a picture of us is because he was photographing Masamune and others in their Final Fantasy cosplay. Well this is the first year I got my picture up on Cosplay.com, so I am very excited. So I no longer hold a grudge agaisnt Eurobeat King, although he still focuses too much on hot girls. Hmmm... just realized I'm a hypocrite...

179
We headed back into the hotel and we quickly snapped shots of EricB in his Squall costume...

I am of the opinion that I will never look this badass again. Ever.

180
...and Jimjitsu in his Wolfwood costume. This is also the first time I gave into the dreaded Con Blorch that would eventually destroy the rest of the day. I went up to the room and layed down because I felt so bad.

And the badassness continues!
