Cosplay, which is short for "costume play," refers to dressing up in costumes taken from manga or anime characters. This popular aspect of Japanese pop-culture is also trendy outside of Japan, and many cosplayers gather at anime conventions wearing the outfits of their favorite characters and competing in costume contests. Even if you are not a huge cosplay fan, you might be interested in trying it. One fun way to do this is to participate in Cosplay Karaoke.

Karaoke no Tetsujin ("Karaoke King"), a Tokyo-based chain of karaoke shops, offers costumes to make your experience more fun! You can choose from a variety of outfits, including a maid costume, nurse uniform, China dress, Japanese-style boy's school uniform, and many more. And remember, all of the outfits come in a variety of sizes, so the maid costume is not only for the ladies! Nothing gets the crowd roaring more than seeing a male maid sing.

Tetsujin's other attractions include 410,000 songs in its library, many more than other karaoke chains. The shops also offer a wide variety of delicious, reasonably priced food. The menu features over 50 dishes ranging from Japanese to Italian cuisine!

Karaoke no Tetsujin offers you the chance to experience two fun aspects of Japanese culture - karaoke and cosplay - at one time. Don't miss this unique opportunity find your inner voice and character.
