Hi...
In Brazil, if one man will be in a group, always says the brothers.. In the Portuguese language has variation in the writing of "the" for man and woman, in English not. Therefore, the brothers Monica (she) and Maurício (he)... Sandra Monte htp://papodebudega.blogspot.com |

Congrats to Brazil, but it is rather interesting, the results.
2nd place was the Japanese Web Team, which did Rose of Versailles. In 2005 the US team was disqualified at Anime Expo because the contest organizers claimed the creator of Rose of Versailles did not approve of cosplays of her characters. The contest is more or less, a farce. |

No one was disqualified last year, where did you get that info? I don't see how you can go calling it a farce.

That sounds like speculation, I think they realize the significance of cosplay in the US, its one of the most developed cultures in the world. If they didn't have American cosplayers this year they should have them next year. It doesn't sound like a dislike thing.

From what I gather from what I've read, it's dislike -- and a dis-invitation. As I said in the other thread, I don't see Americans being involved with this crap for the forseeable future. |

This is from the 2005 article that was posted here on ANN...
So yes, the original US group was DQ'ed, and another group was hand-picked by TV Aichi. |
