Designing and making things is fun, and I like communicating my favorite shows to people who might know them. I only do characters semi-niche or older shows, so I feel like I'm contributing to the part of cosplay that isn't just "I wanna dress up and have my picture taken" attention-whore side of things.

It goes both ways dudet.

You think all these woman haters started that way? You really think it's because they are all just shallow and stupid? They are the same coin, people who's kindness hasn't been rewarded, hearts broken too many times and given zero sympathy from anyone, or worse even mocked straight to their face. No matter how many times they try to break the pattern, to prove it wrong it just ends up repeating, ending up to the point where they are so broken that the moment anyone shows them any amount of kindness they freak out and scare them away because their trust is gone.

It's a cruel fucking world man. Actual innocent people driven to maddness while the devil gets to dance freely.

I would say yes to the fact that the ita shit aged out, most drama circles aged out or went to sites that basically if you get name dropped on; you then have a shield of "evil nazi racist homophobes who harass and kill people". This goes for cosplay and anime cons as well I feel.

At the current time shit is almost completely forgotten or kept in such a small gossip circle it's impossible to follow like akin to being discussed on bluesky or something irrelevant. Like this isn't the 2010's where everything festered about as cons roared into the mainstage.

>cosplay capitol of the world

What gives? I am going to Japan this year and no one I know in the gull group I am knows anything about this place, and I don't see any threads here about it. You think with the expensive hotels and bars people go to that there would be at least some slow general here about Comiket or some of the shows like Tokyo Comic Con. I got a flight from Dallas to Tokyo for a bit over 800(only 1 checked bag though) which isn't that bad compared to costs I would pay for ANYC and the hotels for a weekend but there I get a full 12 nights...

What gives why does cgl never post about Japan all that much?

> it's not a free for all cosplay all day at the actual event kind of thing like we do in the west
You actually are, however it's stated this in english because they want to make sure people cosplaying do not use the crowded trains. You take up space, you could ruin your cosplay, you could harm your cosplay, etc. Most people doing the professional cosplay area poses often have hotels paid for on site to walk over to anyways.
>You aren't allowed to cosplay inside.
You are so long as it does not have props attached to you or things that would block foot traffic. Again, this is a not understanding Japan level issue.

A group from Yokosuka goes to it regularly sure some newbies fuck up the first time going but they learn after the first one and it's a non issue. Some were doing scanty and kneesocks this year but changed to panty and stocking after being told the body paint rubbing off on people could be an issue. It's stuff like that you need to worry about anon.

The amount of cosplayers from any sports anime I see on the doujinshi floors is far less than what it was back in the states but it's still there.

Posting in an old thread, but I don't give a fuck.

If you're serious about cosplay and mostly want to do cosplay-related activties, you really shouldn't be looking at Comiket. Acosta! is your best bet for cosplay events. They're all over Japan, but their biggest ones are in Ikebukuro Sunshine City. Acosta! allows access to cosplay area, shops, purikura, and attractions like aquariums and amusement parks while in cosplay. They're held every couple of months.

With doujin, Comiket isn't your only option either. You can literally cosplay at any doujinshi or figure event like Super Comic City, Wonderfest etc. You can even cosplay at those movie screenings where you can cheer and wave light sticks around.
If you're a femanon you should look into Akaboo's event catalogue. They host more fujo-oriented doujin events with probably 90% of the attendees being women and very few gaijin. Comiket is like half gaijin at this point. It's also way easier to talk to the sellers and other fans since they're all fujoshits like you and you can get drunk at Torikizoku afterwards.

>sauce: anon goes to Japan multiple times a year and attends every doujinshi and cosplay event possible during those times

So...Buenos Aires time.
Fantabaires was the event for any anime fans for a while, and that shit wasn't actually aimed at anime, it was western cartoons. I wonder what was the first official anime con here. Yukai Fest? Can't be, I somewhat remember Animate being a thing until one in the 2010s was reviled and they just gave up.

Just came here to complain about the a similar thing. It wants me to verify ID or whatever, but it won't let me do anything on the website, just says to use the app, but the app just errors and forces me back to the login where it resends the verification code. The option to accept a phone call doesn't go through to my phone. No wonder this thread is dead these days, you can't even browse the listings without being a Chinese citizen now?
>>
>>10957694
Christ, I talked to customer support and I'm not even sure if that fixed it, because at the same time I screwed around on the app until it finally let me upload my passport directly to the app. One way or another my account is unfrozen. Good luck to the other anon with this issue and anyone else in the future.

i gave up trying to do anything, but maybe i'll try again soon.
>>
>>10957694
They want you to submit an international passport via the app, but even having done that they still freeze your account every other week. I'm at the point I can only browse Tao via image search using site:item.taobao.com.
>>
>>10958474
Yeah, even after that my account has been frozen 3 more times now. Every time I have to contact customer service on a 2nd account, wait for an agent to call me, wait longer for them to say my account is unlocked. It is ridiculous. I think part of what is getting my account frozen is browsing via PC and opening many item tabs at once, I am guessing their system mistakes it for bot behavior. If my account gets frozen again even just browsing one tab at a time, I'm throwing in the towel. I love Taolife and I love how TaoBao recommends things based on your favorites, but its really too much effort/frustration to keep getting sent to "Risk Center" and having to return to customer service.
>>10958351
At the very least, customer service does help resolve it and they have English speaking agents these days, it's just very annoying to jump through the hoops.

It feels pointless going to cons alone. I just went to Otakuthon yesterday and I saw tons of people, I went to panels, I had tons of nice conversations, interactions and pictures, but it hurts knowing I'll probably never see any of these people again. The only real long interaction I had was with a guy playing Go with me and some other people, but beyond that, it never moved outside of small talk and compliments.

I'm still happy that I probably talked to over a 100 strangers in one day, something most people who are lonely fail to do, but being alone in a crowd truly hurts.

What are some cosplay stories that you'll remember for the rest of your life?

Wholesome: Cosplaying some My Little Penis characters with my then-gf when a little girl started freaking out over how great we looked. She got her dad to take loads of pictures with both of us.

Less wholesome: I saw a fur-suiter yelling at his wife.

Least wholesome: Walking to the convention center behind my friend's sister in her Sailor Saturn cosplay, on a windy day. She either didn't notice or didn't care that her bare ass was playing aggressive peekaboo with me. Only time I've ever wanted the walk from the hotel to be longer.

Sad: I was at Twitchcon when that lady broke her spine.

Went to ACEN or one of the other bigger cons at Rosemont probably about a decade or so ago (probably off by a few years, but whatever) with my then gf.

At the end of the day, when we were heading out, there was a group of pretty hot chicks, some in cosplay, some not, dancing choreographed dances to Blackpink songs.

Yeah, they were hot and all, but I thought it was pretty fuggin' cool how they all looked like they were having an absolute blast up there in front of the literal ring of onlookers around them. Gave a certain sense of community that I'll probably never feel again. Also gave me a certain appreciation for Blackpink's music, coming from a metalhead, that shit bumps.
