Hey, all,

I just noticed this...the Osaka team was Lulu/Suzaku :3

(I can't link to it directly, so go to Performances --- Japan/Osaka)

::Edit:: Here's a lower quality of it on YouTube (BUT WATCH IT ON THE WCS WEBSITE, cuz the angle is better.)

::Added (again -__-):: I forgot to say that this one was 3rd-Place for 2008~

Their performance was good (if not the best one), but the costumes are not that great in my opinion. They're pretty, but nowhere as stunning as some others that are not on the podium (I'm thinking of teams Mexico, Denmark and France, which are my favorite costume-wise).
Plus, one of the criteria being "Faithfulness to the original work", they probably did not get full marks on this either... (said criteria was added after complaints last year : the winning team made a performance with close to no relevance with the original manga, and in some countries it apparently is not acceptable).
But it certainly was an audience favorite ;)
