Man shows up to wedding party as Mobile Suit Gundam
When one man in Japan was told to “wear a suit” for a wedding party, he decided to pull out all the stops and show up in his best suit – the Mobile Suit Gundam.
Despite its unbelievable appearance, this suit was far from the only elaborate costume at this party.
That’s because this particular just-wedded couple are a pair of cosplayers. The party included many more incredible “suits” including one that’ll fight the Gundam to a tie.
Mobile Suit Gundam almost steals the show at wedding party
When Japanese X user @zgokzogok was asked to “wear a suit” to an upcoming wedding party, he knew the exact suit for the job.
In this X post from 11 May, he wrote that he was asked to wear a suit, so he came in a mobile suit.

This “mobile suit” is the RX-78-2, the original Gundam from the popular series in 1979 that has since spawned a massive franchise.
The cosplayer included a very helpful name card so that other party-goers could recognize who he was.
Also spotted in the photo is another cosplayer wearing a duel disk from the popular anime “Yu-Gi-Oh!”.
Another mecha shows up at the party
But the Gundam wasn’t the only mecha at the party.
A subsequent X post shows a crossover duel between the Gundam and EVA-01 from the anime series “Neon Genesis Evangelion”.

The couple can be seen cutting a cake here with the Excalibur from the anime “Fate/Stay Night”.
Despite his busy schedule, the groom did not miss the chance to marvel and show appreciation for the Gundam.
In his X post, the host expressed that he felt sorry that his friend brought along such a heavy suit, but he was overjoyed to see it.
