Hello, I've been into lolita for a while and I've been wanting to actually participate now. The only concern I have is that I am a guy and don't want to bring shame or embarrassment to myself or others. I'm not trans or anything like that, I just enjoy the culture and such. I enjoy egl the most, so I'd focus there. It's not like I'm a stranger to j-fashion, I wear mode/karasu zoku, which already focuses on androgyny. Is this a good idea, or should I save myself and those in the comm from my karmic actions out of respect? Yes, Mana is a man, but that's different and I'm not him.
>>10974448just don't be creepy and wear what works for your body.
>>10974448why post this guy's pic? Because of the art on his robe you think is shameful and its a white guy?Do you have any idea who this is?
this might be the most heartwarming post ive seen today. ive been a lolita myself for a few years now and it is so rare to find men in egl style. please go for it , it is really beautiful and it is also genderless. i only know two male lolita's out there and they've never been hated on by the community. don't listen to rando's or people that are larping egl
>>10974448Not sure if bait or not, but just gonna assume the better. Despite what some comments on /cgl/ may suggest, the larger majority does not care as long you behave yourself and put actual effort into your looks, stay open to critisizm and please learn to use proper make-up. That being said though, pulling off the look heavily relies on your overall physique. The smaller and slimer you are, the easier it is to achieve an authentic look that does hurt the eye. Which substyle in particular are you looking at? Any inspirations? Do you know people who already engage with the egl community?
Guys, how old is too old?Like, I am an oldfag in his mid 40s. Used to be very involved in the con scene back in the 90s and early 00s. I am currently on a very nostalgic mood about those days of yore, and planning to visit a few of the big cons to see how's the fandom nowadays. Would I be, as you youngsters say, cringe? Worse, would other congoers immediately assume I am a creepy pedophile? I don't really want to ruin some kids con experience like that.Two things, I would be attending alone because the few con buddies from back then that I still keep in contact, are too jaded and busy to give a shit. Also, I am considering if it is a good idea to go cosplaying as an old timer character.
>>10936085I know I'm replying to a really old post but it's hilarious how warped their perception of age is. I'm fat (38 pants) and my hairline is thinning and I still constantly get "wtf I thought you were like 27" from the zoomettes at work when they find out I'm a month away from 40.
>>10969296This. Cons mid 30's is actually ideal
>>10973598K
>>10906476I mean, if you're a super hot chick, you can do it well into your 40s, but this is super rare. As a guy, I'm 38, I definitely would not feel comfortable at a con in where most cosplayers are in their late teens to early 20s but have a mental age of around 14 yrs old.
When your unc ass is crying about time stamps then its time to leave
I thought about starting cosplaying with things i have home does anyone have ideas of a character who would look cool on me?
>>10976039Everyone is masturbating to your pics.Let us see your body too.
>>10976044i thought it was a sfw board
>>10976048When has that ever stopped anyone from fapping to pretty girls?If you do cosplay, guys will fap to you. Get used to it.
>>10976015Looks like you could do a good Rosemary Walten if you dyed your hair black.

hello frens. is anyone going to cave this weekend? it's new.
She is low tier compared to some chineses and japaneses.But when compared to americans she is pretty good.Most of the female americans are fat and ugly.
>>10965083the actual cosplay is the emiru character she plays on stream. she looks nothing like that irl
>>10976343She is prettier without the heavy make up.
>>10974784No, those two things tend to go hand in hand. Attractive loners/bullied girls end up whoring out to any boy who gives them attention, becomes anyones gf even if she doesnt like them, and then totally relies on current boy to fufill all their social needs. When he gets sick of it and leaves (especially if she wont put out), on to the next boy of the week.It's honestly sad to watch.
WHO IS YOUR OSHIWHO ARE YOU LOOKING FORWARD TO SEEING THE MOSTWHAT SONGS ARE YOU LISTENING TO
>For the first time since 2022, I will not be presenting my Call and MIX panel at USIF, as it’s been rejected. I’m honestly a bit devastated as this panel was created specifically for this event all those years ago, and I had a special version of it that I crafted specifically for some of the performers that were guesting at this year’s event. >Because of this, as well as my departure from staff, I will no longer be attending the event, and will focus my support to the handful of local events that have popped up the same weekend!kekShe's mad
>>10976362Really living rent free if you brought up a 3 day old insta story

NEW THREAD>>10976381
>>10976362>same event that approves Silvagunner as an idol guestWhat the fuck is going on?
I saw this amazing Zelda cosplayer on Instagram but I noticed she doesnt seem to be wearing any underwear or anything and she's at a con. Is she secretly wearing something underneath?
>>10970844>I feel like it would be completely understandable, but would people look at me weird?Just bend your dick downwards and keep it tucked in so it's not obivous.
>>10969116Anon you might be retarded You would not say this if she was a fat fucking whale
>>10968620>visible tattoosthis is just a brother worker in a zelda outfit
>>10968620Obviously promoting her OF
she have a time stamp to cover it lol
What was your first cosplay? >did a closet cosplay from a hotline miami mod maybe 26 people played>most work I did was dyeing a stupid hat
>>10913693>I nicknamed it the boiler suitMaybe Milo can fix ya
>>10968225There's been a time or two I've been adopted by Kreigers and Armageddon Steel legionaries. Derping around making gas mask noises is pretty great.>>10972272Milo could, but I would rather have Audrey working on me.

My first cosplay was as a timestamp
>>10976365Suicide
>Little over one month away>Not much talkFuck it. Might as well get a general thread for this con going.August 1st and 2nd at the Vibe Credit Union Showplace in Novi, Michigan.Tickets available at https://www.michigananime.com/tickets
so how was the con?
>>10975799Pretty good. They need a bigger arcade and more panels but it was big improvement from the year before. The rave was one pretty decent band that played covers of anime intros and the same two DJs that youma gets who just play shitty edm. I'm looking forward to next year. They seem really focused on community feedback and expansion.
>>10975799It was the best con ever specifically because (You), incel necrobumper, didn't go. Keep it that way. Don't break that flawless streak of yours
>>10976169Honestly, the con was alright for what I was getting. Saturday was alright for the con as I was able to get some time to have some fun before heading back at the end of the day. Cosplays for the con were alright and got to meet a few of the voice actors. Sadly there were some who I was unable to meet due to the long lines. Registration lines were also not bad honestly. Would recommend going next year.
There is an up coming Michigan Con that will potentially take place in March. More news will be announced. Looks like you can join the discord to be a Shouko founder and get Discounts on convention tickets, Vendor applications, Artist Alley applications, and other eligible Convention related fees.https://discord.com/invite/PcRyfhvxW
>ummm whats wrong with cosplaying a character from a series you haven't watched?Unironically how do you respond without sounding mad?
>>10974780Virtue signaling tourists like this have basically destroyed fandom culture for most japanese media, especially doujin games. Hope they find someone else to annoy soon.Ironically i have never seen people criticise mahouako, probably because its character designs just naturally alienate people who care about stupid shit like that. I actually see cosplays often in the mahouako subreddit
>>10948089>Unironically how do you respond without sounding mad?I ask them for a timestamp
>>10974785>Hope they find someone else to annoy soonI think it's already happening; normies are starting to perceive being into anime as an incel thing because of various recent events, and I'm seeing hot girls at cons being displaced by greasy smelly nerds again. Getting our fandoms back is one of the few things from 2030 to look forward to.
>>10949481Haven't seen a single l4d cosplay in decades. God I miss it
>>10976346I ask you to end your life
Share your experiences on buying Taobao brands. I wanna know if you hated or loved it, and why.Never bought anything there but was considering to do so because I found some cute stuff. Should I...?(JSK on the pic is Memoirs of Backlight by Infanta)
>>10975117second thathow to you even browse taobao nowadays? Do you really need to make an account?
>>10974797I'm sorry, but it really isn't.
>>10975117>>10975886I've been using CNshopper! Taobao's been requiring accounts to browse AND recently made it impossible for Americans to register for one. The good news is that CNshopper doesn't charge service fees (just warehouse)
>>10974766As an ausfag, it's been easy to sign up and get things shipped arriving in 2 weeks tops (via air) The English version of the app is a bit limited in which brands you can buy from, because not all of them go through the effort of translating their products, but I've been able to buy from notable brands like Infanta, Dear Celine, CEL, Magic Tea Party, Classical Puppets, etc.
>>10976008wasn't gonna say anything, but since you did... i also think the quality looks poor in this one. but i've seen some other options that look nice.
Any gals here?
>>10973858This isn't what i was asking>>10973892don't then Herr Alpha Male
>>10976045Is this u? Cute eye makeup, if u wanna improve u gotta either drop the nose stripe or tan more and commit to kuro, and use less blush, do ur brows and add a light lipstick or gloss. Can see a lot of potential here though
>>10959435this is from forever ago but this is what i look like now :3 hopefully I’ve improved LOL as always concrit welcum
pic w/ my actual hair, i wanna get it all blonde without frying it again lol
This is for the older con goers. How does it feel to go to cons? Do you feel out of place? What is the average age at cons do you feel, and when do you feel like you've aged out of the con scene? I'm early 30s myself and I'm starting to notice the age difference, and have been interacting with people a lot less at cons
>>10976279maybe you should tie a noose around your neck
>>10959878and you're likely to continue seeing it, as the fanbase of anime hasn't stopped growing.
>>10961065>>10964686There are plenty of characters that are "older" to cosplay. Not every cosplay needs to be some 17 year old anime waifu.There's a few "older" (40s and 50s) dudes who frequent the cons i go to, and they always have fantastic cosplays. Oppenheimer, Gramps Jojo, Old Snake, William from l4d, etc.As long as you don't pick ridiculous cosplays that are a quarter of your age and just generally look like you're having fun, nobody is gonna care if you're "old".What people do care about is the fat "otaku" dressed up in a sailor moon outfit that is 3 sizes too small trying to creep on teenage girls. That's what they don't like.
>>10976298There's a lot of like, grey haired actual old characters, but anime is kind of light on the middle ground. It's tough when you're past the point of pulling off teenagers but not actual old looking yet.
>>10976327Fair point. There's only so many Gendo Ikari type characters; characters that are both age appropriate and also recognizable/fun to cosplay.Even Gordan Freeman is supposed to be like 26.
