Hundreds of cosplayers dressed up in intricate and flamboyant costumes of Japanese anime and American comic characters swarmed the grounds of HELP University in Subang 2 for the 10th anniversary celebration of the C2AGE X-treme 2017 cosplay, comics, anime and games exhibition.

The event, organised by the university students, was made merrier with the presence of international cosplay stars, the holding of an Overwatch tournament plus an array of performances and impressive exhibitions.
