Dress up costumes as what cosplay you like

Thousands of cosplayers (short for costume role-play), attendees along with several guests of honor showed off the amazing culture they fell in love with, and surprised hotel guests who did not know about the convention.

The second floor of the hotel held a lot of the video rooms, panel rooms, the arcade, karaoke room and the ever-popular artist alley. The artist alley at PMX was small compared to Anime Expo, but it was full of great artists trying to get their work out to other fans like them.

Tiffany Ho was one of the many artists selling her work, including dozens of pins, prints and bookmarks.

"This is a very small con, but I’ve been doing a lot better than I thought I would at this con," Ho said. "I like the fact that you can come in and set up whenever you want, and you make your own hours."
The thing that most attendees agreed on was PMX’s laid back and incredibly friendly atmosphere. "It’s really chill and you talk to a lot of people, so it’s really cool in that aspect," Ho said.

"(Anime Expo), hands down, awesome and the best, but it’s nice to come to the little cons because we have more time to hang out … it’s been fun here," said Jessica Nichols, who came to the convention dressed as Cammy from "Street Fighter."
