Stofest 2018 There were many wonderful and exciting cosplays, including Harry Potter & Ghibli's Laputa clan ♪ (Osaka/Nihonbashi Street Festa)

Hello!
Albus the Wizard, pancake, pancake, pancake, dice, dice man, Dumbledore.

Sunday 18 March 2018 was a sunny day.

It was the day of Japan's largest cosplay festival, Nihonbashi Street Festa 2018, in Osaka's Nihonbashi (Nipponbashi)!

So, let's get to the report.

Of course I participated, for the second time after 2017. w

We start with the Harriotta cosplayers... ♪

Nah, Harry Potter.&c.Pandegrafen Death Eater

I'm sure there will be a lot of Nana fans, so I'll introduce more photos.

In his hand he holds Harry's nimbus 2000 broom, which he made himself, and wears an early version of Gryffindor's crimson Quidditch dressing gowns. He also wears a white owl, Hedwig, which he made by hand.

♪ Here comes Harry with his firebolt ♪
The broom was purchased at USJ Derbysh and Bangs. w
A rather spectacular picture, isn't it? Nimbus and Firebolt all together (laughs).

I know you don't have time to put them together and you can't see any sense in the layout.
There were other Harriottans there too, although I didn't get to meet them. I'll post their tweets.
Reino-san is a witch or wizard that I met once, because she is a Snape.

And a nice non-Harry Potter cosplay introduction.
The Laputa clan from the world of Ghibli

It was a great group of people.
They're all here.

Behold! The beauty of the robot soldiers! All I can say is, "Amazing!" (laughs)
The robot soldier is not an object, but a person inside.
And not a masterpiece with working arms and other parts.

The flaptar was removed as soon as the event opened. We apologise to everyone who was looking forward to it. I'm wandering around as a robot soldier. I'm sorry... pic.twitter.com/Vc3sQLBFB9

Unfortunately, the "Flapter" could not be displayed and the Pancake Man could not be ridden. (>_<)
We'll save this fun for another event, when we can be together.

It's a last-minute announcement of participation, but it's a decision.
Tomorrow's strike festival is theta with us in conjunction with Laputa!
I think it's moving around the Parks!

These four people we encountered as we were leaving (laughs).
There were many more 'awesome', 'unique', 'hilarious' and 'cute' cosplays! There were many more "awesome", "unique", "hilarious" and "cute" cosplays, but I didn't have time to take photos of them, and I couldn't move around much this year either, so I can't introduce many of them (^_^;).
To find out more about Stofest 2018, search and watch on Twitter and Instagram.Â
Many people also took photos of us and I would like to take this opportunity to thank them.
We look forward to working with you in the future. w
He sometimes appears in the USJ wizarding world, so please feel free to ask him to join us.
After changing, Pancake Man & Nana moved to Namba Parks because they were hungry.
And I went from being a wizard to a free pancake man (laughs).

all-you-can-eatDutch Baby Pancakes 'Dutch Garden' and 'Apple Pancakes' at the Original Pancake House Osaka, known as 'Oripan'.I was the happiest I've ever been on the World Wide Web.

The grilling was one of the best I've ever had in Oripan Osaka♪
It was a happy day, with the magic of Harriotta and the magic of pancakes. w
