>Maison Otaku, a new French organization, announced that it would hold a major event in Paris to celebrate the manga Nana, claiming that voice actress Romi Park and singer Olivia Lufkin would be present.>The organizers allegedly deceived Romi Park by not telling her that it was an unofficial event and making her believe she might receive an award presented by the French government.>Standard entry tickets were priced at €60, with VIP tickets going up to €250 for the chance to meet Romi Park.>Visitors soon discovered that the event was being held in an almost empty hotel with no decorations. Everyone stood around for hours with nothing to do.>Most of the merchandise sold at the event consisted of shonen figurines with no connection to Nana.>Romi Park arrived late, at 6 p.m., by which time many attendees who had come specifically to see her had already left. She appeared wearing a mask, likely so that her presence would not be noticed by Nana’s rights holders.>At the end of the day, one of the organizers declared that the event had been “incredible.”>France finally has its own DashCon.
>>10961632good, Nana was a dumb pointless anime
>>10961632I didn't know about that. I wonder who were the idiots who went there without noticing it was a scam, probably zoomers who became huge Nana fans after the pandemic and who think they're now shojo manga experts. Even bigger French cons are dog shit nowadays so I can't imagine how boring this one was.
>>10962179>I wonder who were the idiots who went there without noticing it was a scamWell they got Romi Park to show up, so I guess there's one. It's pretty easy to create a facade of legitimacy with just a basic website and social media presence. Anyway what happened to the organizers, are people demanding refunds at least?
First red flag, an entire convention based on that anime, I guess French dweebs are even dumber than ours here
>>10961632everyone knows there is no French on 4chan
There are plenty of attractive white girls who cosplay, but there are no attractive white boys. Some pretty boys would fit in with the bishounen aesthetic.
>>10962079bruh more like the cute-sexy beast in pink wig and cute pantsu? that's literally my ideal of cute and sexy girl
>>10961496I got ghosted by this dude earlier this year LOL
>>10961495They are too busy dating on Grindr
>>10962072He speaks the truth, a lot of men (actual men, not female troons who want to be men) cosplay capeshit. They look better in capeshit cosplays than they do as most anime protags desu
>>10963495Conan the Librarian too?
Finally starting a maid cafe thread since ppl don’t like it in the kaigai idol thread kek. What do you guys think of the winners of the Asayoru calendar vote? I’m surprised that Sakurin and Ai didn’t get in…
wut?
Are cosplayers more likely to accept photos if you take it with them or of them?
>>10962588Very few times I did get refused.Few times out of hundreds.I don't know if these people don't shower or what. I'm no prince charming and I'd say ~99% cosplayers say yes to a pic.
>>10962742A normal human? 5'2'' 105
>>10962756are you female?
>>10962756>105 pounds as a 5'2" femaleoof
>>10962756why are you so fat?
Do you have a favorite pattern?

I went to a con last week and met another Link cosplayer (I'm the white Link)
>>10961824you look like this one skilled ass link cosplayer i saw on tiktok a while back your name's not icarus something or other is it
>>10961839I'll tell you what I'd do with a million rupees...
My first time on this board and i already see how gay it is. Not that im complaining
>>10961843I look like this
>>10961839that would require a doubleclick
There seriously aren't people who do this are there? I get that things are expensive, but going into thousands of dollars of high interest debt for a few weekends can't be a thing
>>10962340I can go to a three day convention with 200 in my pocket. If I drive I sleep in my car if I don't find someone to room with on the cheap, or if I fly I go homeless at the nearest all-nite diner or squat in a unbooked room. Free food is everywhere, especially in the service corridors. At [REDACTED] I found an entire room full of meals prepared for some business conference and shoved a few into my backpack, it BTFO the MREs I'd brought with me. >>10962357>queerwhen will people stop pretending that being a faggot or any of its subsidaries isn't a symptom of a larger, systemic issue?
My therapist told me to spend money going to bars, dating apps and any anime con event I wanted to go to despite me telling her and showing her repeatedly how much money I make. Of course I listened to her and now I'm even further in the hole.
>>10963597Uh...sweaty? Don't you know you're not supposed to say things like this on a site where anonymous faggots will judge you for not wasting money when you didn't have to (o algo)?
>>10963662
i spend thousands because i splurge for suites and host parties. even spring for valet bevause it's convenient. never had an issue with debt because i have a job and do this for fun. shouldn't really be an issue if you're not retarded with every other purchase you make in your life
It's been 10 years Are cons safer now?Anyone encountered any con creeps?I (male) got my butt grabbed by another guy once, didn't bother me desu (not gay)
>>10962938>>10963411>taking in one person's experience as the majorityKEK
>>10941576If this a girl, U naughty naughty.If this a boy……U not a girl
>>10963422wolfeyvgc complained about something similargays and women groped him at fucking pokemon tournament eventsbut I guess your cope will now be that this is just two people, and somehow you won't get that events like this have behavioral problems in general
>>10941576Also send your socials.Your hot btw
Bye bye
Time for this shitfest again. What are you looking forward to?
>>10962121Yeah the NYCC con badges are actual badges. Every attendee is suppose to have a profile, with their badge(s) linked to the profile. The badges themselves have a RFID chip in them, and you're suppose to tap to check-in when you enter the con/at the security checkpoint when tap again to check-out when exiting the con-especially if you have intentions of returning later on that day. Presumably, they are using the info to track traffic flow/how many actual people are in the building/grounds at a certain time.
Anyone see us at NYCC?
>>10962438It's not going to be that easyNext year, you post a description of yourself, and if I find you, I'll give you something cool
>>10962559No
10963649Yeah no shit retard, you didn't see anyone cuz you didn't go
Hello. I want to share my cosplays. I don't claim anything, this is my hobby and I like to do it in my free time. I'm 20 years old. It just so happens that I often cosplay male characters, lol. This has nothing to do with anything, it just so happens that male characters often suit my personality, that's why I like them. In this photo, my Jeff the Killer, although I've already changed him a little, Gamzee from Homestuck, Jane the Killer and Damara Megiddo from Homestuck. I'll throw a couple more of my cosplays in the comments. P.S. I'm writing this through a translator.
Here are a couple more of my cosplays. Pinkie Pie from Pony Mov, Infected and Unpleasant from Regretevator
>>10960591Don't forget this. Very important.
>>10961647is this oldfag coded the way I think it is?

I've been working on clown/mime makeup for a while but idk what kind of paint I should use?Im using a mehron white base but the black paint doesn't work well as a powder baseSorry I'm bad at this and can't find the stupid questions thread if there's one
ICP just use random home depot paint (don't do that)
>>10961702Cringe
>>10961702You get rangebaned by google?
It's been 17 years, do you still hate her?
>>10962509Rip, you would have loved todays con scene
>>10962512I’m pretty sure she scrubbed her cosplay stuff off the internet. Which is a shame, I think I remember her doing a Hawkgirl cosplay that was pretty nice.
>>10962465>It's been 17 yearsI was 9 years old!
>>10962465SOVL
>>10962544Zoomee
Should I do this workshop /a/? Do you think it would help me find a girlfriend at an anime convention?
>>10963613Nah, it’s just a scam. If you don’t have your shit together, it’s really hard to find anyone worthwhile in these kinds of settings. At these conventions, the pussy inflation runs wild.If you’re looking for PeD or some paid action, someone gave me a good piece of advice years ago in a thread, and it still holds up. Had some good times thanks to it.

There really seems to be an attempt by modern brands to cross lolita and hanfu over with eachother I've noticed a lot recently.
https://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=820987153696&spm=a312a.7700824.w4002-15143484779.13.44a12a12sQPANaDefinitely going to pick up this outfit for the next hippie folkie festival event I go too.
Anyone know decent search terms for getting hanfu classic/wuxia type wedding costumes? Specifically couple ones or for men. My attempts haven't come up with much. Honestly just need imagery inspo for a project I'm working on
Traditional Chinese dresses can be lovely.
