Have you ever cosplayed?

[Avarice-ness]

My sister made a rather good Flonne (Disgaea) costume and wore it at Sakura Con two years in a row. She's making a Marona (Phantom Brave) costume for this coming con. I'd be willing to cosplay, for a convention of course, but I'm too lazy and cheap to get a costume. And if I were to, it wouldn't be half-assed.

And seriously, I don't know why there's so much negative attitudes against cosplay. It's something people enjoy doing and it doesn't hurt anyone else (except in specific cases: see Man Faye. My eyes! They burn!). Obviously some people probably don't have the body to do it, but hey, if they made the costume themselves more power to them. Some of the costumes are very elaborate and take a lot of skill, and I find it sad that someone would deride them for being able to do such a thing.

I think that even if you don't have the body it shouldn't matter to an extent, most people that go to the cons don't bash people because they're larger because it's respected. There are some though that do have the good bodies that show it off well.

And then there's...

Do a Celes!

If I do a Celes I'd do sprite version, I've seen some -beautiful- costumes based off the sprite that almost puts amano's costume design to shame. I like details and saddly Amano's isn't that detailed, you can have the Detail with Terra, but if you want Detailed Celes you'd go sprite version. <3
