For the 1st time, the annual Cosplay Festival organised by the Singapore Cosplay Club was no longer held at the far East (i.e: D'Marquee @ Downtown East) & by virtue of the new location, I had to attend. It was a 1-day event held on 8/04/2023 (Sat), starting from 12:00 - 20:00.
How lucky for the tourists! I had a fun time rather openly watching their curious expressions.
Unfortunately, I did not purchase the $23 ticket to enter the Cosfest Hall. Thankfully, there were a sea of sight worthy cos-ers hanging out by the flooding entrance. No Itachi spotted, although his partner Kisame must have snuck out:
I was prepared for a gathering of the repeat Genshin characters (5 same character cosplay was the max spotted) and was pleasantly surprised by the unusual Bleach pairing strolling by:
Abarai Renji
Urahara Kisuke
(Really cute irl ><)
V-Tuber Shxtou
(Pronounced Shoto; I'm not well-versed in the virtual Youtuber scene, but apparently this was voiced by a Vietnamese-Amercian behind the avatar)
Doctor Strange: Scarlet Witch
Pulled off by resident Sephiroth & Alucard (feat. in EOY & AFA posts~) Imagine my delight spotting him again & again fufu
(Unknown) A beautiful sight captured in time

Immediately caught my attention, she literally just stood there & embodies elegance
A breath of fresh air to spot a hanfu lady
(This affirms my goal to do a hanfu shot in China)
Genshin Impact: Kamisato Ayaka, Springbloom Missive edition
(A very meticulous cos-er who ensured the chain behind her costume was properly fastened before attending to me)
Genshin Impact: Nahida
I did an internal fist of victory at her choice of camp site; the background could not have accentuated her elf theme better...
Genshin Impact: Hu Tao, a very popular character choice
Kamisama Hajimemashita: Tomoe
Whom I had interrupted amidst his (her) Mac lunch
Conclusion
Honestly, the experience was not the best - it was way too humid, crowded with insufficient photoshoot clearings. I experimented with close-up shots and realised it was compromised with the busy background and bad lighting. I also made a mistake and took some against the sunlight (which explained the overcast faces in some photos).
Regardless, I have met my photos KPI and might return to cos in the next event (かな?)
Signing off with Hako-san whirling a hammer~
