Participants dressed as Japanese animation characters gather outside the Hong Kong convention centre
on the first day of the annual Hong Kong Comics Festival and Game Fair.
The annual fair showcases animation, comics, online games, electronic games and edition collectibles.
With roots in Japanese pop culture, cosplay - short for costume role play - involves dressing up in
costumes and makeup to emulate characters from comic books, movies and video games.
