Cosplay= Japanese term for Costume Play
I've been a big fan of Coplays and love watching it. It's the japanese way of costume play, where they get the chance to be like their favorite anime character of game character. Sometimes I thinking of joining one.
What would you prefer? participate or just watch?

Hi! Welcome to myLot. Im not really a party person and I really dont like to dress up that much so I would probably not attend a Cosplay party. It looks fun though so I might jut watch it on tv. If im feeling a bit adventurous I might attend a Cosplay Party but wearing normal clothes. I would just have a live coverage of the party or just hang out in the sidelines watching the other people in their trendy colorful costumes. Maybe have a picture or two.^_^ If you like to party and like to dress upyou should join one for the heck of it and for the experience too. How many poeple can say that they have been Sakuragi Hanamichi? or maybe Naruto or whoever you're favorite anime character is. Well, goodluck in finding the best outfit for your character. Goodluck in your decision to join a Cosplay someday. HAve a nice day.^_^

hello, crimsonshock, welcome to mylot:D, the same with you I really like to watched cosplayer on an anime convention or televison. I find it very interesting and fascinating to see people wearing anime clothes, esp. those who manage to get the exact costume and really look like the character they're cosplaying. And really sometimes I wished I'll have the chance to cosplay my favorite character someday. But it's very expensive to get a good costume, so maybe it will be impossible for me to participate XD.

If I really had my resources available, I wouldn't hesitate to participate if there was an event that had cosplay thumbup

Why not? You wouldn't be alone and not only are you fulfilling your interests, your also helping others who appreciate seemingly having to meet the characters that are suppose to be only fictional in reality. happy

Once your dressed up as your fave character, you embody their traits and personality, so much as to maintaining the character's integrity.

Your current avatar image is from Valkyrie Profile 2, Silmeria and the uploaded character being cosplayed is Iori Yoshizuki from I"s of Masakazu Katsura I really like the manga very much and the cosplayer in the image has done a very good job, both on costume and facial feature.. though I sense that she's more high spirited than docile which the character that she's portraying is..

Oh yeah, welcome to myLot!

Hey there!
Thanks for the answer. It's really nice that you know my avatar and the picture i've included in the discussion.
Actually I have a kimono that I wore a year ago in our company year end party. I really like it and I'm planning on making the costume of Yuna of FFX the one that's kimono inspired and Tifa's outfit in Advent Children.
Thanks again!

How wouldn't I know that character, I have a thing for Square Soft, now Square Enix, games. And fortunately, that game which your avatar image came from is one among such titles that I really want to play but, unfortunately didn't finish. sad

Go to some sites that really have detailing on making costumes like that. Well, have fun with it thumbup

Your quite welcome lol


crimsonshock (24)   ranked 19 out of 247 in anime  3 months ago

Me too! I really love Square Enix.
I've finished Valkyrie Profilfe 2 up to the bonus dungeon a.k.a. spoiler dungeon. I've even video taped each characters Soul Crush.

Hihihihihi

What?! You finished playing it?!

My copy always freezes at some point in the game and it really sucks so bad angry

Good for you I guess.. I really like how they innovated the game compared the the prequel. thumbup

I wanted to participate! I wanted to dress like Tifa from Final fantasy 7. She's so sexy and I really liked her character there. Love them (Cloud & Tifa!)


crimsonshock (24)   ranked 19 out of 247 in anime  3 months ago

Hi there bernz! hahahaha I like TIfa's outift in Advent Children. I think if you wanted a customized costume of her it would be really expensive. Because I think it would be made of leather or leatherette or something similar to that.
If I would be cosplaying the ever pretty Tifa Lockhart, I should learn her moves!
Thanks!

I really enjoy watching cosplay. Its so cool getting to see some of your favorite up close and personal. I have even have some hug me, which was so awesome. Watching so many people cosplay and have fun has started to make me want to join in on the fun. At the next Anime Expo this July, I plan on cosplaying as Meg from Burst Angel and am so looking forward to it.

I prefer watching cosplay myself. It's not that I think that cosplay isn't cool, but I kinda have a self esteem issue when it comes to cosplay. I am not the best costume maker, so I think I would feel shy around the other people who make really amazing costumes. Also, I think I would feel a lot better if I had a better body to fill out those costumes.^_^

Still, I am really impressed by the people who have the skills and self confidence to do a really good job at cosplay.

i'm also a fan of it and i've never tried joining or participating in some cosplay events. so i would definitely want to participate in one of the cosplay events if i have an opportunity. i love wearing anime dresses because they're different and cute, so i would definitely go for it
