    I'd like to cosplay one day actually. I might go as a White Mage for Halloween though. xD I'd love to make a Rozalin from Disgaea 2 costume, because I just love her dress, but don't think I'd be able to pull it off. xD I don't get why people hate it so much either, it's just a person wearing a costume. There are some bad ones, but I don't think that's a reason to hate it as a whole.

    Disgaea cosplay makes me happy. Thus, you make me happy

    We ran into an Etna and a Mid-Boss at Sakura Con this year. They loved Starlight's costume, as she loved theirs. They were all pretty well loved.

    Starlight got a lot of "ANGEL TRAINEE FLONNE! I LOVE YOU!" (or something akin to that) screamed across the convention center.

    And I'd be one of those people screaming if I was there. I adore Flonne, she's so adorable. xD Actually, I would love a Flonne costume as well, but I know for a fact that I'd never do Etna though. xD I just couldn't make her work.

    And Mid-Boss cosplay? I love this guy already! Now we just need Laharl. <3

    I really need to go to a convention of of these days, if only to jump all the people cosplaying my favorite characters.

    I'd have to agree with that.

    Laharl is hard to pull off because he's just that awesome.

    And because of the whole lack of shirt thing.

    But yes, I think a lot of the bigger conventions tend to get the better cosplayers. Anime conventions, in particular, seem to pull in a lot more, because Anime is increasingly popular amongst men and women, whereas other traditional "geek" activities have long been considered more guy things. Also, anime in general tends to have a lot of slim, effeminate male roles, which a girls generally cosplay a LOT better than guys do. I've never seen a good male Kenshin cosplayer, for example, but I've seen many good female Kenshin cosplayers.

    Sadly, it's true. But I'm sure someone could pull it off... maybe. Perhaps. Possibly?

    I would think guys would have an easier time cosplaying Kenshin than some of the other popular male characters, but I guess not. I haven't see very much Kenshin cosplay though, so yeah. xD I've seen a bit of InuYasha ones though, and I haven't really seen any good male cosplays of him yet. But, I like the fact that they tried, as long as they had fun making the costume.

    Actually wait, I take it back. I have seen a few good male Kenshin cosplay. They were all Samurai X Kenshin though.

    He's less effeminate in the Samurai X era. But there are some really hard ones for guys to pull off, Kenshin definitely being one of them.

    As far as Inuyasha goes though, I've seen very little good Inuyasha cosplay. Reflective of the series, I'd say

    I'm cosplaying as something this year for Otakon. I'm probably just going to cop out and go as the Prince of Falena from Suikoden V.

    I dressed up as a Star Trek officer. Had the hair greased down 60's style and everything. It actually looked pretty good.

    Cosplay? Nope, I never have.

    Many people do a pretty terrible job at it anyway. But there are a few that capture the character well.
