Today we get to take a look at an anime related event that happened last month, CosCafe NYC!
A once & a while pop-up event, CosCafe NYC hosts single-day cafés based on a particular theme from an anime. For this past event, Sailor Moon was the series of choice!
The event took place at Hanamizuki Cafe, a cute little cafe in Midtown with a variety of Japanese fare. However, just for the café, A special team of bakers were on staff who created some lovely sailor moon inspired desserts.
With everything set up & in place, the cosplay staff hold a quick huddle before the cafe starts.
With the event in full swing, patrons are eager to take pictures with their favorite Sailor Moon characters.
Sailor Venus & Mars strike a pose for one of the artists.
The café was separated into four separate blocks, each about an hour long. As patrons sat down to enjoy their desserts + tea, they were also able to engage with their favorite characters to play games & talk.
Time for a selfie!
In the name of the moon~
Since it was a ticketed event, each of the four blocks were completely filled up, making sure the café was always full of energy!
Towards the end of each block, guests had the opportunity to get some of the cosplay characters to act out a request via a raffle. one of the popular requests was for an arm wrestle.
Some requests were a bit more specific ^^
Overall it was a really fun event! Looking forward to seeing which other themed cafés are held in the future!
Nice photos!The food looks actually good!
Seems like a nice place to be as everyone seems pretty cool and open to everyone.
Yeah the event definitely had a good vibe to it which is always good
