Kazuyoshi Katayama

This photo pretty much made my con, haha. This is our group with Kazuyoshi Katayama, the director of Big O! It was seriously a joy meeting him, especially being able to in our Big O cosplays! We knew he would be at Animefest, but had no idea he'd be a surprise judge for the cosplay contest we were entering, which made us all extremely nervous! He enjoyed our costumes though, which made it all worth while! We walked away with "Best Group!" which was totally awesome. ^_^
