Characters from Pokémon and Fate Grand Order rank as some of the most impressive this year.

It’s that time of year again, when cosplayers brave the cold to join the otaku migration to Comiket, Japan’s largest biannual indie manga, anime, game, and cosplay convention.

We headed out to the venue at Tokyo Big Sight to see the amazing cosplay costumes in person, and when we arrived on the opening day of the convention on 28 December, we found some of the world’s best known characters in attendance.

With 190,000 participants on the first day alone, Winter Comiket opened to a beautiful day of fine weather, which put both attendees and all the 1,608 male and 4,406 female cosplayers in a bright and cheery mood during the event.

So let’s get to it and take a look at some of the most impressive cosplayers from day one of the convention, starting with a gang from popular Japanese manga and anime series Crayon Shin-chan.
