Katsucon returned for its 25th annual convention, a celebration of anime, manga, cosplay and much more, from February 16-18, 2019 at the Gaylord National Resort and Convention Center. The show is considered a highlight event of the year when it comes to cosplay due to the picturesque nature of the venue, resulting in many over-the-top costumes gracing the show floor over the course of the weekend.

Take a look at some of the sights from the show below, with photography from Gemstone Assistant Editor Carrie Wood.
