This is an important question that demands your attention
kinda just comb the front upwards then pull down, part the middle. The rest is kinda simple
A wig.
Lesbian cosplay
>>10948686this picture is older than most users here. they are currently in their late 30's/early 40's, married, own a $750,0000 home, make over $90,000 a year, and have kids.
Sometimes I wonder, are they really into it, or just faking it for the pictures
>>10969304They had kids together?!
The title says it all, cosplayers that did awesome cosplay but their career were cut short, as they suddenly disappeared without any notice.
I think about my queen Koujackie most days. I hope she's doing good
>>10969983I remember koujackie
>>10969983
>>10969995only true dmmd fans remember our queen and goddess Koujackie
Have you ever thought about getting plastic surgery for cosplay?If you did, were the results favorable?
>>10948660if its her body then you are not fucking her otherwise it would be your body, nice try simp
you can always get a saline injection for temporary real fake boobs.

is fat transfer better than silicone?
>>10971848Depends on what you are expecting for results.>fat transfer moves fat from ass/gut/back/etc to tits>only provides very small boost>needs to be done multiple times over a long period to get a big change>more surgery means more chances for things to go wrong or get infections>high chance of fucking up your ability to breast feed because they are poking around inside your boob trying spread out the fat with a huge syringe>need to have some chub for them to transfer anything>if you lose a ton of weight, you'll lose your tits>if you want to go big, you'll get huge floppers because its just injected fat with no structure, and not big naturals with booba shape defined by your genes>implants>goes in and done>chance of infection, like all surgeryComment too long.

>ask someone at a con to take a photo for you>they hand back your phone and there's like 12 identical photos
would you rather a single mediocre or shit shot?
Cosplaying used to be something only the ugly fat girls liked to do.It used to require sewing skills, wood/plastic sculpting skills and also painting skills. Most of the people couldn't put enough time to do it.The existing women would receive a lot of attention back then no matter how ugly they were. Not being fat was a huge plus bonus.But now, any women can buy the outfit done from China, done with pro quality better than most can do. Any new anime of the season will already have a cosplay outfit selling in China.Doing the cosplay of one character first would be something that used to draw a lot of attention, now anyone can buy it ready from China faster than ever.And more and more women are doing cosplay, because it gives them views on social media.Now the ugly nerdy women can't compete in any way with the pretty women doing the job.Do you agree they stole this hobby from the fat ugly women???
>>10971670>Cosplaying used to be something only the ugly fat girls liked to do.You're completely wrong about this. I've been in the cosplay scene for almost 25 years and there have always been plenty of attractive girls. I dated multiple 8+ girls in the days before Facebook pages, Patreon, Onlyfans, etc. even existed, and those girls made their own costumes.
well-made handcrafted shit still receives a lot of attention lol.store-bought costumes just makes it so that more people can participate
>>10971785The store bought stuff prevents a lot of people from ever making their own costumes because they can either start with a really shitty costume and learn or have something kind of okay and never learn. The temporary high embarrassment from having a shit first-time cosplay is now optional and most people would rather have a low lifetime embarrassment of wearing chink premades.
Is barefoot cosplay ever acceptable?If you are walking around at a con?
>>10963707this girl constantly had to get her feet cleanedhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lrz1wLMCrJ8
probably a bad idea
>>10963707her right feet is a bit deformed

Old thread is capped >>10868636This thread is for ouji and aristocrat (aka "boystyle") discussion. "Boystyle" is shorthand for "boystyle lolita" and refers to the masculine counterparts of Japanese lolita and, often, aristocrat fashions. There is a lot of overlap between these styles, and different people use different terms to describe them. We usually just use "ouji" here.>Shopping spreadsheetThis is broken, now.

>>10968809I kept my hair pretty short for work, and thought short wigs would look too costume, but I was probably wrong. At the very least, jesus christ, some makeup goes a long way. Concealer, some light eyeshadow, whatever. King Louis would have been wearing circle lenses and falsies if they were around at the time, let's collectively get over it.
Even this guy looks like a fuckin' goofball from any other angle. Silhouette is important, high waisted pants and some chunky heeled shoes goes a long long way. Yosuke has great options. Look at visual kei for makeup I spoke. Not mana and kozi, but Atsushi Sakurai and Gackt, they have handsome masculine features, but they're wearing foundation to even their skin, and subtle eyeshadow or eyeliner, usually filling in their eyebrows a bit, all at the very least. To wear expensive frilly clothes and not take care of your skin and style your hair feels ridiculous, in retrospect.
If no one gets anything else from this embarassment, please at least consider the validity of erouji.
thanks for the dump and your thoughts. i remember you from a long time ago.my fav coords of yours:>>10968797>>10968803>>10968804>>10968805ouji has used pants since the beginning. don't let anyone tell you otherwise!
any good releases lately?
What's a good but simple cosplay idea? I don't wanna break the bank. I was thinking Cammy, but the issue is that I am 18.
>>10969198If you are a girl just do OF and get simps to pay for itIf you are a boy, well you can do the same if you pass
>>10969206>If you are a girl just do OF and get simps to pay for itYup... I'd love to pay for it.
>>10969198>I was thinking Cammy, but the issue is that I am 18.And the problem would be?
>>10969198>but the issue is that I am 18.huh? never wore a swimming suit in a public bath? or even a bikini? never went to the beach in summer? KEK.are you from the bible belt?
>>10970206>>10970466>>10969200It's probably just some failed bait post and the age is a typo.
>Late 20s cosplayer who was active pre pandemic and did fanservice cosplays>Pre Pandemic, most cosplay girls(even the ero ones) where definitely nerds, hot girls who found an outlet and overall it felt more authentic>2025? I go to a con and the popular or attractive girls are either failed models, athletes, fitness addicts who are trying to make it big in the cosplay and anime world by being an influencer
>>10966441I have the feeling it already started pre-pandemic
Something I think a lot of millennials still dont realize is anime and cosplay arent subculture anymore like it was when you grew up, that world you grew up in doesnt exist anymore. Pandemic accelerated things yes but you have to be a genuine retard if you couldnt see the shifting tide beforehand. It isnt some obscure nerdy interest its just plain culture at this point with all that carries with. Which unfortunately in this day and age also includes lots of IG, OF, tiktok and other such engagementslop. They didnt change just to target some niche hobby, the world around you changed and you failed to notice.
>>10970203amazing insight, moron
>>10969036Anon wants to be a whore?No Dignity.
>>10967237Um, how so when the top tier looking people are always a minority. There's always more average people to dominate any space.
Why do so many cosplayers these days insist on giving themselves Steve Buscemi Eyes?
>>10969223Adults with developmental problems watch kids media to infantilize themselves, shit like Bluey or Digital Circus
>>10969565100% of the people I've met that watched streamers were women. Many of them watch female streamers. As a man, I don't know anything about streaming. If I ever met another man that admitted to watching streamers, I would ostracize him and shame him until he learned to be a normal person. God I can't stand nerds that waste their time watching other people play video games. Same thing with people that watch sports. Such pathetic behavior.
>>10969577nice april fools joke
>>10969579I hope you're not a man that watches streamers or sports. That would be really sad.
>>10968663On the /jp board in some of the idol threads, they call them "eye slugs"
Just recently moved to Spain. Are there any con scene and interesting cosplay scenes?
I've never even been to the country, but I'm also probably the only person willing to answer on this dead as dead board. Spain has a chain of cons, mostly in the north, called ExpOtaku. https://www.expotaku.com/ In my experience, chain cons are super corpo and lame but if they're running that many they have to be at least....kind of professional
>>10971486your best bet is to try to search on tiktok for tags near the city you moved to. Sometimes there's small cons or events, or you can even start following a few of the big tiktok cosplayers from Spain, and they usually make a big post when an event is a week or two away. Good luck OP!
>>10971486barcelona: salon del comic, salon del mangabest ramen I've ever had was 9 trillion years ago in salon del manga, a legit jappo cooked them. chikun shrooms and bamboo
Here's an up to date list of every spaniard con:https://www.listadomanga.es/Manga Barcelona in December is pretty decent. The Spaniard representative for the World Cosplay Summit is chosen there too.Madrid and Andalusia have some big ones too but I haven't been there so I can't say much. If you are not used to Spain's climate avoid cons during the summer months. It gets unbearably hot (40°C). The north is less hot but there are no major cons in summer.
>Ask a cosplayer to take a picture of him/her.>Clearly looks annoyed while posing.As someone who's an introvert who handles socialization like a minefield, that's basically nervewracking.
>>10971316>As someone who's an introvert who handles socialization like a minefield, that's basically nervewracking.If you asked and they agreed they probably aren't trying to look mad on purpose. As someone who does a good deal of photos at events, sometimes I'm just tired or hungover from a party(depending on the hour you ask). Could be any number of reasons, trying to hold in a fart, need to piss/shit, just fucking tired, don't realize you took the photo before I was ready and wasn't fully in pose, etc
>>10971316cheer up fren, i'm sure they were just having to probably deal with con drama with friends, you never know how much craziness happens there, so I doubt it was you. Proud of you for taking a photo though, based.
>>10971328This, or maybe just being annoyed is part of their character haha
>>10971316How ugly are you?
>handles socialization like a minefieldSaying this>Clearly looks annoyed while posing.but still trusting your own judgment. Autist pitfall 101
What's the worst con you've been to? Bonus points for dead ones.
every single wizard/fan expo cleveland>allows knock off slop in the vendor hall>prices hiked up every year to insane degrees>literal who cosplayers and star wars/ghost busters nerds taking up way too much room>all the video game booths are over priced and upcharged to kingdom fuck, one of the booths was run by two cunty women that were selling filthy gameboys for 160 a piece>9$ water bottle at concession stand>way too many kids and boomers that will dead lock you in the eye like your wrong for being there>50 billion trans shit in the artist alley>Game room is filled with dirty ps5s and only smash bros>autograph prices for celebs are always outrageous>have to scan a fucking rfid card to leave>too many niggers unironically>did i mention bootlegs? my friend bought bootleg miku cards for 9$>insane amount of body heat, almost a 20 degree difference between vendor floor and panel roomscolossalcon mogs the fuck out of fan expo in every way except smell, the smell at colossal is fucking unbearable sometimes but still a good comfy con
>>10969650This past year was my first year at FanExpo Cleveland and man it really was lame with hardly anything to do, though I just chalked it up to being a comic con and me getting there super late with people that didn't care too much about it outside of the vendor hall. The AI slop and bootlegs were too much though, the one booth even had a sign saying no photos when all his art was very obviously AI generated. Also closing at like 6PM or whatever on a Saturday. I wish we had a better con in Cleveland but Sandusky is a short drive and Colossal is pretty nuts so whatever.
>>10969766Look into https://collectaconusa.com/I heard its better than fanexpo and its cheaper and its in the same venue
There was a convention called Rose City AniFest in 2022 or 2023, then changed to be called "Night at the Ramada" a year later at the Ramada Hotel in El Monte, California. It was run by some dude who wears a luchador mask everywhere he goes, apparently called "Lui Sincara" (a play on words for Luis "Faceless" or "no faec", I think he's the owner of https://www.instagram.com/lamangacafe/Year 1 was whatever, it was the equivalent of some small, hotel space-only convention in those smaller regional cons people go to. Nothing special but good enough to kill an afternoon at. Year 2, they changed the theme of the event from a Christmas convention to an 18+ convention, and it was called H-Night at the Ramada. It was a really weird pivot, and they made the main attraction of the "convention" a maid cafe where the girls were pole dancing and doing the equivalent of hostess bar garbage. They eventually got a C&D from Playboy for using the Playboy bunny logo and their trademarked outfits in advertisements. Then there was apparently some feud because they claimed that a local anirave/japanese music community were the ones that reported them to Playboy without any evidence. Then it came out that they were interviewing guests from the past convention without telling them they would be used in advertisements, blanking on some of the specifics. Regardless, it turned into this whole mess with the owner and some of his media crew that follow him around everywhere. It went from a C-tier convention to an attempt to pivot to coomers by having them pay to spend time with hot girls and it eventually fell apart, there haven't been any conventions since then.
>>10969810I'd heard of Collecacon too but>no Friday>ends at 6PM on SaturdayPlus it looks even more like a comic con and seems confined to just the vendor hall. They got Souljaboy playin doe!!! Honestly I'll just settle for Matsuricon and Colossalcon.
Any good Latex / Vinil / Tight and shiny cosplays?
>>10967185Wrists (where the rope is) are way too thick for that to be her. It's probably some slightly chubby 35 year old dude.
>>10968442 That bear suit looks like one of those inflatable mascots latex fetishists own, and if you see it closely, the whole arms are inflatable.
>>10968432didn't Shirogane move out at the start of the war?
>>10964868>>10964872>>10964876>>10964945Ngl, if she was public about these, I would had been glad to at least try the low tier on her Patreon, if she had oneFrom what I can see on these, she probably did lightcore porn for friends with the latex and light bdsm
