*points* You didn't seem to add to any variety Mr. Shino. XD It was interesting that Amanda pulled off that big Naruto group. I don't think that's ever happened at JAC. I pretty impressed actually, but I know what you mean. Having a variety of characters is more interesting to the spectators. I've been looking at the pictures on FB. I was really impressed by the number of people who put the effort to make their own costumes. I'm so glad you guys looked like you had at least as many if not more cosplayers than last year. =) Oh! And I didn't even know that you were Shino until I read this even though I saw pics. Lol! And about Jenny winning in her generic lolita ... her costumes always look super cute and she has a ton of charisma and attitude which sometimes count for just as much if not more in contests like this. *shrug* Just the way things go I suppose.

Looking at the pics, I'm totally bummed I missed it. Stupid take home econ final. >.>
