The purpose of this event is to provide the Indonesian cosplay community a place to showcase their artwork at an international standard cosplay competition facility and provide international exposure for the purpose of joining the international cosplay league.

35 teams of cosplayers competed at Little Tokyo Ennichisai and have been narrowed down to 6 by costume, script, choreography, and background digital video. The top 6 finalists will compete in CLAS:H and the first place winner will win the grand prize: a trip to Japan!
