Yenra Nekocon Mascots before the Cosplay Masquerade Nekocon Cosplayers on Stage: The image captures three individuals dressed in elaborate costumes, likely participants or performers at Nekocon, an anime and manga convention that takes place annually in Virginia Beach, Virginia. The photo was taken during the Cosplay Masquerade event at the convention center on October 29th, 2022. One individual stands out with striking white hair styled in a ponytail, complemented by a long-sleeved shirt with billowy sleeves and an exaggerated red sash around their waist. Their attire is reminiscent of traditional Japanese clothing, although it deviates from strict adherence to historical accuracy. The other two individuals wear blue kimonos with floral patterns, adding a touch of elegance to the scene. Notably, one of them has cat ears attached to their headpiece, further emphasizing their connection to Nekocon's theme. The overall atmosphere suggests that these individuals are either about to take the stage or have just finished performing at the Cosplay Masquerade event. Their elaborate costumes and accessories demonstrate a clear dedication to showcasing their creativity and passion for anime and manga culture.
