So, I went to Tennessee this past weekend and met some pretty crazy awesome people. Most of them were cosplaying as Hetalia characters and I acquired a little Tobi of my own. So Escapist, does anyone on here cosplay? And if so, put down your character and what they're from.

Me, I cosplay as Prussia from Hetalia...why? Cause he's awesome like me! :3

I don't, mostly due to a lack of funds. I would also have no one to go with, so I'd look slightly odd doing it alone.

The only official cosplay I've ever done was The Merchant from Resident Evil 4 and every body loved me. But boy was it hot wearing the costume.

Hetalia?! F***ING AWESOME!

OT: I've never had a chance to cosplay before, but if I did have the chance/money, I'd cosplay as Sander Cohen from BioShock if it was a game convention or Italy from Hetalia if it was an anime convention.

Nah, I've actually brifly considered doing it, but I don't have the funds, social status, or materials to make it happen.

Woot! Italy! I bought an Italy keychain at the con...it's so damn cute...

OT: I was also just told I'm being forced to cosplay as Haruhi Fujioka from Ouran...

My most recent cosplay was Russia from Hetalia. My best friend was going to be my America, but she forgot her costume. Seriously. Who does that?

My favorite costume that I've made is probably Kitaro from Gegege no Kitaro. It's just so much fun to wear. I think it's the geta... Also, I will be very happy if anyone here actually knows what Gegege no Kitaro is.

I've done a generic ANBU Ninja and Panda version of Ranma's father from Ranma 1/2 and I only did the latter because a friend had a panda suit because his brother worked for some advertising agency and all I had to do was add signs.
But that was only in highschool. I never did anything else because going as a giant panda made people act somewhat odd. It was like ok I don't need random strangers hugging me please, especially from behind when I'm unaware...
Now I'm way too old to cosplay and definitely don't have the body.

I'm a Crossplayer; I always dress as a guy, except one time when I went as Kana from the Gothic Lolita Bibles. Sofar I've gone as Sha Gojyo from Gensoumaden Saiyuki, Die from Dir en Grey, Hide from X-Japan, & Count D from Petshop of Horrors. It think that's it.... I had to stop cosplaying when I stopped working to take care of my grandma. I can't afford the materials to make or buy costumes anymore. Plus I haven't gone to a convention since the Narutard Fiasco at Sakura-Con a few years back.

Nope! But Doesn't mean I wouldn't dress up if I could. Hmm well it defeats the purpose of cosplay really, but I would give a pretty penny to run around as a storm trooper in the hard armor like the 501st. But that's more like dressing up then really anime cosplaying...

I remember this thread! Personally I do not, but I know someone that did it a few times. She seems to enjoy it
