Check out photos from Anime Expo in Shannon Cottrell's slideshows “Anime Expo 2010: Thursday, Day One” and “Anime Expo 2010: Friday, Day Two.”

One of our favorite cosplays from Anime Expo (so far) isn't an anime character. It's Andrew W.K., musician and host of Destroy Build Destroy.

You might ask, “What does Andrew W.K. have to do with anime?” Not so long ago, he released Gundam Rock, an album devoted to covers of songs from the famed giant robot series. Earlier this year, we asked the rocker if he would ever play an anime convention. You can read his answer in our music blog, West Coast Sound.
