In this issue, we will introduce photos of cosplayers we saw at the Wonder Festival venue. Onefest used to have a unique cosplay culture due to the lack of restrictions such as "long items OK," but the atmosphere has gradually become more similar to that of a regular cosplay event. However, the large number of doll-headed costumed cosplayers is still a major feature of the event.

In terms of genres, "Fate" and "Azur Lane" were strong. The number of idol cosplayers was slightly decreasing, and virtual youtubers such as Kizuna Ai and Tsuki Kirayatsu increased as newcomers... a trend similar to that seen at the year-end Comic Market. The popularity of "Monster Hunter" and "Super Sonico" was also strong, which is unique to Wanfest.

Many of the photographers at Wanfest are also equipped with full-scale equipment, and this time, Sony full-size mirrorless cameras such as the "α7ii" were very common. This may mean that lightweight full-size mirrorless cameras with image stabilization are ideal as sub-cameras for those who leave their single focal lengths and medium telephoto lenses on. The cosplay area at Wanfest had a high percentage of photographers, and long lines were the norm for many cosplayers, so there was no shortage of time to look at people's equipment. No, really.

Let me introduce some photos of cosplayers I saw at the One Fest 2018 [Winter] venue. This time, the wind was strong but we were blessed with clear skies, so we took photos mainly outdoors.
