Previous thread >>10803531 died from a lack of posts. Not all that surprising with how little there was to post about at the time. Personally I'm also somewhat done with /cgl/ and all the pointless con drama and have been focusing on other things. But now that we've got several conventions around the corner, have a new thread!

Question of the thread: What convention are you looking forward to the most this year and why?

Upcoming major events
>22-23 Sep: Elfia Haarzuilens, a large popular outdoor fantasy event in Haarzuilens.
>6-7 May: MIA NL, a popular commercial anime convention in Gorinchem.
>21-21 May: Comic Con Brussels, a large commercial geek convention in Brussels.
>9-11 June: Animecon, the oldest anime convention of the Netherlands, hosted in Rijswijk.
>24-25 June: Heroes DCC, the largest commercial geek convention with a focus on dealers.
>30 Jun-2 Jul: Dokomi DE, a large popular anime convention in Dusseldorf.
>8-9 July: Atsusacon, Belgium's largest anime convention... I think?
>3-6 August: Castlefest, a(nother) large popular outdoor fantasy event in Haarzuilens with tons of great food.
>11-13 August: Abunai!, the second oldest and probably now largest anime convention of the Netherlands, hosted in Veldhoven.
>12-13 August: Showmasters Comic Con Amsterdam, a geek convention in Amsterdam.

Would Elfia Haarzuilens be worth traveling to from the UK? I skimmed the youtube videos of the cons on the list and it seemed the most fun. Price wise it doesn't seem much more than going to a non-local UK con.

I would say so if you like fantasy fairs. I personally really like Elfia. Nice location, always something to do or see.

Unfortunately it's kinda shit if it rains a lot. But that's a risk you have to take.

Long live the King.

Old thread lasted like 8 months. Go team and our complete lack of anything going on of note.

Weathers warming up, hope you’ve been working on stuff over winter for the new season.

Cons listed not endorsed. Just copy pasta from 1st search for UK anime cons.

What are some cosplay stories that you'll remember for the rest of your life?

Wholesome: Cosplaying some My Little Penis characters with my then-gf when a little girl started freaking out over how great we looked. She got her dad to take loads of pictures with both of us.

Less wholesome: I saw a fur-suiter yelling at his wife.

Least wholesome: Walking to the convention center behind my friend's sister in her Sailor Saturn cosplay, on a windy day. She either didn't notice or didn't care that her bare ass was playing aggressive peekaboo with me. Only time I've ever wanted the walk from the hotel to be longer.

Sad: I was at Twitchcon when that lady broke her spine.

Korean and Japanese women (and to a lesser extent Chinese women) always cry when they get drunk. They're broken weirdos. If you make them come they cry and then worship you. It's really kinda creepy when you think about it. Don't stop me from making them choke on the D while they slob on the knob tho

Hi CGL,
I'm launching a bespoke latex clothing and cosplay range, and would like to know what you enjoy about rubber.
Not promoting, I'd be grateful if you took some time to fill out my questionnaire. It's completely private, won't take long and all questions are optional.

https://forms.gle/Q8KpGD45Px1EFTHMA

If you have any questions or suggestions, I'd love to hear them.

I've taken to using instant film for a lot of that as I get older. Gives people a cool memento, but it's gone for 20 quid a pack to over 100 and they're a lot less reliable since the last ones expired in 2019.

Still feels special.

I might just adapt the damned thing to run on instax.

My horror story isn't so bad but sucked at the time - roomed with friend (con-goer) and their mom (non-con-goer). In the days before public wifi. Friend's mom is obese and snores insanely loud all 2 nights of 3 day con so neither me nor my friend get any sleep. Then the mom racks up hugeass phone bill by calling relatives on hotel phone - didn't listen to the receptionist's instructions during check-in, nor read the instructions written on the phone, both explaining it's not free. Friend's mom can't afford to pay own phone bill, irately argues with hotel staff for 2 hours while my mom drives down to bail her out and pay for her.

They got the nickname because they were developed for people with autism, but these things are quite handy even if you don't have autism. Especially for cosplayers.

Green - Feel Free to approach me and start a conversation
Yellow - Don't approach me unless I already know you
Red - Don't approach me, I'm busy

Just hanging in the hall and want people to approach you for pictures? Flip it to green. On your way to a panel/event and don't want to get stopped? Flip it to yellow. Sitting down to eat and don't want to be bothered? Flip it to red.

>>10910629
You put the green-yellow-red stickers and flip them to whatever (ie as someone said a busy cosplayer can set hers to red, someone running a meetup to green etc)
>>
>>10909076
That becomes a bit of a gray area, but the general rule of thumb is if they know your name, it's probably safe to talk to them. However, for some people it means they only wanted to be approached by close friends. Just know that yellow means they may not be in their best mood so don't get offended if they brush you off.

>>10910629
As a cosplayer they worked great for me. Lots of people stop and ask me and my friends for pictures and sometimes I'm just not up for posing for photos.

>>
>>10910222
I know this is the "cosplay meta" but some photos get so shopped and filtered they might aswell be CGI..
Like, it pisses me off. There's a cosplayer I follow who's super handsome in-person and does really good makeup but you could NEVER tell from the photos because he always filters/smooths/liquifies the hell out of his pics
>>
>>10910272
It really sucks that nowadays even if you're naturally good looking(specifically in the context of cosplayers), many people will just assume you have great makeup/photoshop skills instead.

Marin (and variations) and Yor were the obvious FOTM cosplays for last con season. What are your predictions for this year?

My predictions:

>a fuckton of Kobeni and Makima
>Mitsuri from Demon Slayer (her arc comes out in spring)
>Vash Stampede for guys

I’m guessing what they meant by that is that they don’t see risqué cosplays at cons anymore (which hasn’t been my experience personally, but that’s pretty dependent upon what cons you’re going to)
>>
>>10910150
The nipples pastries are definitely too extreme to wear at a con. Maybe some cosplayers will use fake boobs or just wear a bra/bikini top with stars. But even then I wonder how many are willing to cosplay her since her design isn't that appealing.
