Mermaids and elves and Pokémon, oh my! Anime Expo has always been the Olympics of cosplay, with attendees spending all year creating and executing costumes so they can live out their fondest dreams of being anime. We went from South Hall to West Hall (and back again) to show you the best of Anime Expo's cosplay — all of whom deserve a gold medal in our opinion.
