World Cosplay Summit (WCS) 2012

After a much anticipated round of competition, i'm sure everyone is excited and happy to know that the WCS Singapore Team of Ayatenshi and Raistlin won 2nd place in the World Cosplay Summit 2012 !

Take a look at the skits from the winners of WCS 2012. Singapore's skit starts at 02:41 .

Really ingenious use of party poppers to recreate the flying feathers effect from the anime! Raistlin's mecha was really amazing, with transformable parts and lights. Check out the changing lights of Ayatenshi's harp at 03:38 as she plays it in time with the music. A really amazing performance by the both of them and a hearty congratulations to the both of them for winning a hard earned 2nd place! Of course, this is the highest placing Singapore has had in the WCS history. Thank you for your hard work !



As shown in the picture above, Singapore and Thailand were leading at the halfway mark (note: Japan was 5th), with Indonesia in the 3rd place.After the audience votes were added in, Japan jumped to first place with Singapore in 2nd position and Indonesia in 3rd. 

There has been some debate online that Singapore should have won the first place if it was not for the newly introduced audience vote, which tipped the scales in favour of the Japanese team who emerged as champions. Of course, Japan did a wonderful job with their Hakuoki performance, but one wonders if Singapore would have attained first place if the audience's votes were not involved....
