Cosplay And Costumes
As a child, my favorite thing was to emulate the cartoon characters that I have watched. Whether it be American or Japanese cartoons, once I have taken interest in a character, there’s no stopping me. And because my family is rather supportive to me, the have given me costumes of my favorite characters. I was so excited and happy when I got my first costume! Rather than just acting like my favorite characters, I can now look just like them. However, I would just wear them during the night time, for they will be more comfortable than wearing it during the day.
Nowadays, I don’t wear costumes anymore, at least not on a regular basis now that I am now a grown up. Despite of that, my interest in costumes remains the same. One of my hobbies now is collecting costumes. The costumes now are truly highly detailed now compared to back then, in which I am truly fascinated. Sometimes, I browse the net for costumes when I have the free time. I would see Superman Costumes, Naruto costumes (from the Japanese anime), the Simpsons costumes, a Mr Potato Head Costume, StarCraft Costumes, and many more that really makes me happy for they are all great.
Usually, you can only wear your costumes during the Halloween and Christmas seasons, for it is the time where lots of people are having their costume parties. But in these days, there are now costume roleplay, or cosplay, conventions. it is where people wearing different kinds of costumes gather together. Though initially a foreign word to Americans, people in the west are now accepting the word cosplay that is first coined in Japan. Cosplay in America and Japan are almost the same, with their difference lies on the characters found in such events. For example, American cosplayers commonly feature western characters, so you will see people wearing a Batman costume, a Shrek costume, or a Mr Potato Head Costume during these events. Cosplay in Japan commonly feature characters from their local cartoons. But still you will see anime characters in western cosplay conventions and vice versa, for this rule is really not written in stone.
Another fun thing about being a cosplayer is that you can wear costumes not intended for your gender. During cosplay events, you can crossdress without raising suspicions about your gender preference. So, during such events you will commonly see a boy wearing a Sailor Moon costume or a girl who wears a Mr Potato Head Costume.
Costumes are really interesting for it can make your fantasy a reality, even if only through your clothes. It is so fun, that even adults have joined the fun. When I have the time, I think I will join some cosplay events because I think they are a lot of fun. I suggest that you should try it at least once. Millions and millions of cosplayers around the world can’t be wrong, after all.
