@Moonfight Ich verstehe gar nicht.

[laserbender]

Wow! It's cool seeing old school cosplay again. I remember seeing several cosplayers in this video, especially the Lupin cosplayer because he was in a lot of magazines both English and Japanese at the time. All you need is Robert Fenelon as Leader Desslock to make it complete. Great video!

[Zerudah]

What really makes the video old is she can still stand in a street in Los Angeles without having to worry about cars. ^_-

[GayDad420]

yep downtown los angeles used to be a barren, desolate place 15 years ago. good point fellow youtube user "zerudah"!!

[Rheinhard]

Had to get your comment translated, basically "My goodness, I wasn't born yet"... yes, well, I am getting old... :(

[lneedm0neys]

old school cosplay of old school anime.. gonna love it...

[YoungPups]

Any chance you have the intro for this show on the tape this came from? When I was in high school, my marching band did a show that was shot to be used in Naruhodo's intro, and I've always wanted to see what it looked like.

[Rheinhard]

Unfortunately, no. I was always a little disappointed that the Japanese station only sent us tapes with the segment we were personally directly involved in. I would have liked to see the other segments they shot around the country as well!

[Banzchan]

Oh man, a blast from the past. I know most of these people! Those were the days. :)

[doronjosama]

Holy crow! I know SO many people from this video from back in the day! Thank you so much for posting it, it's so amazing to remember the old fun times of cosplay!

Thanks for the additional info - I have been racking my brain trying to remember more names of some of the other folks in the video - I remember it was Brandon as Ranma (can't remember last name) and I can't remember our P-chan! If she sees this video please contact me!

[MasterLupin03]

His name was Brendan F.
