Dozens of them did a stupendous dance routine in the middle of the street, but scattered when the cops showed. The video is wild. Link Update: Brian sez, "The cosplayers are actually doing the dance from the ending of the anime 'The Melancholy of Suzumiya Haruhi,' previously discussed on Boing Boing." posted by Cory Doctorow at 03:47:11 PM permalink \| Other blogs' comments View a recent day: June 10, 2007 \| June 09, 2007 \| June 08, 2007 \| June 07, 2007 \| June 06, 2007 \| June 05, 2007 \| June 04, 2007 \| previous days \| all BB archives by month and year Email this entry to: Your email address: Message (optional):	Boing Boing Sponsored by: Your Text Ad Here Get BB by email:
