Taken yesterday at Akiba.
Thanks to Hector (kirainet.com) for taking the video. Hector and I are going to head out soon for a meeting and then on to terrorize the locals in the Vader and Trooper outfits ^^;
Video clip after the jump.

I wish YouTube would start to monetize by allowing less compression for paid accounts or something...
Please excuse the dodgy dancing ^^;

If you want to share this video, you can find the embed code at YouTube.
Coverage of the 6.30 demo later this week.

Hahah! Thats excellent, you lil' groover!

I didnt know the Trooper costume was that flexible and easy to move around in!

Love that guy on the train who failed to smile or acknowledge you!

Must take balls of steel to that sorta thing in public. I suppose thats the beauty of wearing a full face mask - no one can see you ^_^

I guess when you get the urge to groove then you just groove. It was funny how the guy on the train just pretended you wasn't there, and the maids were class. Reminded me of a scene out of a Bollywood movie where everyoen gets up and dances for no reason. This made my day. :)

This is crazy Danny and so funky!!! ^o^  Hey you got rhythm man and the guts to do it, that is all you need.

What's with that guy on the train.  Hey buddy stop being a stiff, you can't park it on the dance floor. ^^;  I like how he takes a quick check to see if any one else noticed.

Thanks Danny, this really made my day!

I haven't had a good laugh all day, so many thanks.

The Cosplayers joining in at the crosswalk was greatness :)

I would like to formally request a  Haruhi dance featuring the ST and Vader in the center.  Now that would be a site to behold.

Again, thanks for the good laugh.

Some couldn't resist the call of dancing with you and that was great.

Laughs at the metro guy who looks at you with a "Omigosh weird bloke"... I guess some need more fun in life, but hey!

Keep the good vibes, Dancing Trooper!
