In addition to that we’ll put the best photos on a Facebook gallery and allow con goers to vote for the best photo.  The one with the most Likes by the end of March 31st will win a copy of Samurai Chef and be given the chance to be drawn as an animal character into the upcoming Samurai Chef volume 2!

You can tag us through our Facebook (/mayamada), Twitter (@mayamada) or Instagram (@mayamadatees).  Make sure you’re following us so we can send you the code directly.

Cosplay Hall of Fame

Convention season is almost here and we’ve got something cool in store for cosplayers at this summer’s London Anime Convention on the 30th of June and 1st of July.

 

Throughout the two days we’ll be taking pictures of the best cosplayers at the show to be entered in our website Hall of Fame: A section on the mayamada website dedicated to the best cosplayers from every event we go to.

Here’s how it works:

  • You track us down (we’re not that hard to find, honest) and get your picture taken by a member of our team.
  • After both the London Anime Con and London Film and Comic Con are done, the pictures will go up on our Facebook page.
  • We’ll then let our fans vote on the best cosplayer characters.  Voting will end on Sunday 15th of July.
  • The cosplayers with the most votes will be forever immortalised in our summer Cosplay Hall of Fame on our website.

To be involved, make sure you stop by our stall on either Saturday or Sunday and demand to have your picture taken by someone.  Shake them if you have to 🙂

Don’t worry if you can’t make the London Anime Convention, because we’ll be continuing the competition at the London Film and Comic Convention just a week later.

Be sure to get your tickets for the shows. You can’t enter the competition if you can’t get in the building!

Get your outfits ready and make sure you’re looking your best.

We can’t wait to see you ^_^
