I actually didn't know there was a cosplay component to the Yonezawa Matsuri. I only caught the very end of it. Afterwards I had some takoyaki (not very good) and checked out the local sports club. In the evening I checked out the "Battle at Hasedo" show held on this same stage. I sampled a skewer of grilled Yonezawa beef after the show. That was really good. Plus it was nice to have something hot then. The temperature had come a fair bit (compared to Sunday night where I was still running the air conditioner).
The festival week took a tough beating as a typhoon passed over Japan during the week. There were handful of casualties in central Japan but luckily the storm did not inflict as much damage as it was projected to.
Enjoy your pop rocks, sir.
