there are a LOT of westerners who do cosplay.

I dont.
but ive worked at conventions where there have been TONS of cosplayers.
i know its around and there is a huge following for it.

its just not my thing personally. most of the cartoon character costumes ive seen dont excite me much- espeically in their practicality.

as a teen, when i probably wouldve been the right demographic for cosplay, i spent every damned halloween dressing up as some kind of vampire anyway........ not any specific vampire from a film/show etc just a vampire........sheesh.
(tapes a big L to her forehead) lol

Alsoo, I love cosplay haha but only when their guid. Bad costumes makes my eyes bleed.

Migumi 10-25-2007 10:58 PM

I cosplay at cons, malls, parties, school and halloween XD

For me cosplay is just normal everyday fashion.

Tifaa 10-28-2007 04:29 PM

I cosplayed Misa from death note this friday. It was a little messed up since my hair has pink in it, but the costume was perfect from my view and some of my friends recognized it (those who had seen or heard about death note). It was fun^^

NanteNa 10-28-2007 04:40 PM

I love cosplaying AND cosplayers. O_O
But I have to admit, that I don't think caucasians should do cosplays of japanese characters of musicians. ^^ it could be 'good' but it gives a weird impression if you ask me.

AoiChan 11-23-2007 04:09 AM

My friends and I dressed as Gazette recently we're probably going to do it next year too put clothes from Cassis.

Yuna7780 11-23-2007 04:23 AM

I cosplayed as Hachi from Nana and this year for Halloween as Gojyo (the guy in my icon, and yes, I crossdressed) from Saiyuki. I did a good job too.

gkgoten100 11-23-2007 04:28 AM

my friend at school had cosplayed as Reno from FFVII twice once at anime-next and the other time at school, he even had the red hair, it was great.

AoiChan 11-23-2007 04:28 AM

Lol its ok its just wrong for a guy to cross-dress but not for a girl ^_^ I think O_O

Haha. It was fun at the party I went to. I mean, I really don't like crossdressing in general, but heck! It was a Halloween anime club party! :D
If John Travolta could pull it off... I can too.:p

KyuuMyuu 11-23-2007 06:05 AM

Uhm, I once cosplayed as Itachi, and once as Misa, I tried to cosplay as Temari, but my hair was too long, and my costume wasn't finished in time. I'm thinking of maybe making another costume, but I don't really have the chance to go to conventions that often, I didn't get to go to one this year, but I might be going to the Ohayocon next January, I'm looking foreward to that. :marusmile:

Konata 11-24-2007 05:59 PM

I've cosplayed a random Akatsuki (Naruto) at Tracon last year, Fujioka Haruhi (Ouran Koukou Host Club) at Animecon this summer. ^o^ I'm going to Tsukicon next month, and I'm still not sure whether I'll be mafia members with my friend, cosplay Elena from Final Fantasy 7, or wear my regular sweet lolita-clothes since MOON -kana- is giving out autographs, and I'm going to her concert later in the evening. Ah, what a dilemma! But I'll definitely cosplay Elena someday. My costume is almost done anyways, it just needs a zipper I'm too lazy to go buy and a collar. I'm planning on cosplaying Izumi Konata from Lucky Star at Tracon in February too, but I really don't know how I should sew the costume, since I want it to look good... I might just order it online. It feels like cheating, but... At least I won't compete with it.

Kenpachi11 11-24-2007 07:07 PM

Next year at AWA(Anime weekend atlanta) im going to cosplay as somebody from bleach

Well to me, the main point is having fun and not judging others costumes. I'm a beginner myself, and have next no no sewing skills as you can see(clicky)... I have to admit that sometimes when a person walks by in a very bad costume I might whisper something to my friend, but in my opinion that's just human...? Despite this, you should always try your best on a costume, even if just for your own fun. You learn through your mistakes, right? ^o^

Hentaro 11-25-2007 10:39 AM

animelover32 11-26-2007 12:52 AM

I haven't cosplayed yet but I will be in Spring of '08. I plan to go to a convention with one of my friend's and I'm going as Roy Mustang from Full Metal Alchemist and my friend is going as Ed from FMA. Now we're trying to figure out the height thing since she's a bit taller than me.

SweetAngel 12-01-2007 05:12 PM

I haven't cosplayed yet but I would love to cosplay as Berudandy(Ah My Goddess) or Yuna(FFX/FFX-2).

phishn37 12-01-2007 05:29 PM

I haven't cosplayed, but I'd love to cosplay as Amu from Shugo Chara:


Becuase she's very cute! But I have no sewing skills and have never cosplayed before, either...

IonFortuna 12-14-2007 04:47 PM
