On Friday, we started the convention off with what is probably the largest Steins;Gate/Steins;Gate 0 cosplay group that I’ve ever seen.

Because Connichi was being held so close to the end of Steins;Gate 0’s airing, I knew that it would be a great idea to organize a group to commemorate that. I had previously cosplayed and had pictures taken of my Steins;Gate 0 Okabe cosplay, but it was very difficult to find other 0 cosplayers in the area prior to the airing of the Steins;Gate 0 anime adaptation.

For Connichi, I asked all of my SciADV-loving friends (who were just as excited as I was!) to join me, and our small crew quickly grew from a simple Steins;Gate 0 group into a general Steins;Gate meet-up, because the amount of interest was massive.

It was absolutely amazing to see so much love for Steins;Gate and SciADV in general! We were super lucky to have my good friend and excellent photographer reiserFS (also a huge SciADV fan) take the amazing photos shown below. I’m still in awe over the fact that we managed to gather such a large group, it was a pleasure to meet everyone.
