Cosplay From Tokyo Game Show 2017
The sheer amount of amazing cosplay at Tokyo Game Show is unlike any other convention in the world. Here's a just a glimpse of the great costumes we saw while touring the show floor! Obviously, we have to start with this suave dude: Mr. Poke Ball Head. He pulled the plush Pikachu out from under his helmet!

D.Va
Overwatch cosplay is big in the West, and it's big in Japan too. D.Va costumes are always a crowd pleaser.
NieR: Automata
2B or not 2B? Haha. Bet no-one's ever thought of that joke before.
Final Fantasy XV
Who loves Final Fantasy XV? Well, just about everyone by the looks of things. This Cindy and Noctis pair looked great, but were definitely not without doppelgangers.
Final Fantasy XV
This Gladiolus was genuinely surprised when we asked him for a picture. He shouldn't have been, because he looked awesome.
Persona 5
Even though this Casual Joker has obviously picked the wrong waifu, he and Futaba still looked like they belonged together.
Persona
At one point all the Persona 4 cosplayers gathered together to pose. You can't see them, but there were about five other Yosukes, which means it must have been pretty friggen' annoying up there.
Persona 5
We saw a couple of people dressed as Ann Takamaki, but this costume was the most impressive.
Hot Mario
This Mario was a very nice guy, and he got a lot of attention.
No nipples though, strangely. He'd never make it in The West.
Cloud + Chocobo
Alright so this kid was adorable. You could hear all the cries of "kawaiii~!" around him. His dad was so proud.
Final Fantasy VII
This Cid stayed in character even when people weren't taking photos of him.
(No, he wasn't baby Cloud's dad)
Persona
Here's Elizabeth from Persona 3's Velvet Room.
She's still the best Velvet Room attendant and you know it.
Final Fantasy XV
Noctis, Noctis everywhere! This was actually the only male Noctis we ran into.
Resident Evil
This crew went old-school--It's Chris Redfield, Jill Valentine, and Rebecca Chambers from the original Resident Evil.
Publisher Cosplay - Monster Hunter: World
Let's duck back into the halls for a little bit and take a look at some of the cosplayers that game companies had hired to hang out at their booth.
This Monster Hunter duo was great, and their costumes were perfect replicas.
Publisher Cosplay - World of Tanks
A world of thanks to World of Tanks. I don't know what country dresses their Armor Divisions in this uniform, but if you know I'd love to hear from you.
Publisher Cosplay - Phantasy Star Online 2
Can you believe this game still hasn't made it to the West? Here's a look at some of the intricate armor their cosplayers were exhibiting.

And here's another. This one's orange!
Earthbound
Okay, back to the fans. We can always appreciate some Earthbound cosplay. This cosplayer was probably about the same height has Ness would be in real life, so that's pretty handy.
.hack
Say hello to this .hack crew! Featuring special guest: Hatsune Miku
King of Fighters
This cosplayer is dressed as everyone's favourite S-Tier King of Fighters character, Leona from Team Ikari.
There was a Clark floating around too, but he was a bit of a jerk.
Final Fantasy
This Final Fantasy VII crew was on-point. Unfortunately, Final Fantasy VI is still the better game.
????
Okay, I gotta be honest. I don't know who this character is but the costume is great. If you know, tell me in the comments! I wanna say he's a Dragon Quest boss or something?
Pokemon: Team Skull
Wow, look at this group of jerks trying to steal Pokemon from little kids.
Just kidding, these guys were cool and had all just met. Criminal bonding for the win.
Overwatch
Looks like at least one person living in Japan thinks Reaper is cool.
Reaper isn't cool, everybody.
Final Fantasy X
Hey, it's Wakka! Hands down the best character in Final Fantasy X, and hands-down the cosplayer with the nicest smile.
Final Fantasy
One more shot of the kid dressed as Cloud riding a chocobo. He's going to grow up to be something great, I can tell.
Street Fighter
This Bison's evil grin is on-point.
Splatoon
STAY FRESH! There were a couple of Squid Girls roaming around, but there definitely needed to be more.
Transformers
What the hell is Michael Bay's Megatron doing in Tokyo? Get back to the dark side of the moon or wherever it is you came from!
Persona 5
Here's another shot of the Takamaki from before with her partner in crime, dressed as Joker. These two were great!
Street Fighter
The whole crew is back together! And they're not beating each other up!
Street Fighter
OH GOD BLANKA IS HERE AND HE'S REAL MAD HE GOT LEFT OUT OF THAT GROUP SHOT.
Something something Minecraft?
Sometimes, you just need to wing these things. Original costumes are great too!
That's it for all the cosplay we saw at Tokyo Game Show 2017. For more on this unique show, be sure to check out our other galleries!
