Final Fantasies gone wrong! Yuna summons all the wrong Guardian Forces who turn out to be various anime characters with loony minds of being a dancer and Sailor Moon.	Morning hangover in the yaoi world? Weib Kruez characters exchanged little yaoi last-night jokes and squealed about stealing pants. "When I get all steamed up... you know what happens!"	Heralding the return to the great Saint Seiya, this remarkable entry for costume presentation debuts with, "I hope you all remember me as the Gold Shiny One."

Watch where yer pointing that thing! Gunsmith Cats Rally Vincent threatens to shoot off Bean Bandit's area where he's not protected by kevlar if he doesn't show up to work on time.	It's going to be a beautiful bloodthirsty night. Characters from Vampire Hunter D make a grand stage entrance to show off their ornate costumes.	Who's next in line for some re-education? Youngest versions of Rurouni characters say their usual taunts to their enemies and then hurry off to the market before they run out of pocky.

An adorable debut for Card Captor Sakura is always welcome. Another version of Sakura-chan smiled for her fans with cute Kero-chan perched on her shoulders.	Packed enough donuts? Vash the Stampede and his buddies on planet Gunsmoke plan their next trip, hopefully with working weapons and enough donuts.	Setting a new record for the support of Pocky, Belldandy shows off her Pocky spirit for the cosplay night.

Workplace harassment? Umi Ryuuzaki and her fairy from Magic Knights Rayearth duke it out to see who gets dibs on harassing Mokona. Umi to Mokona: "It might be fun to find out what makes you so fluffy inside!"		Be vewy vewy quiet! Characters from Trigun play hide and seek while on the chase for the clueless Vash the Stampede.
