Poll: Do I Cosplay, or not?

Go as something that matches hers, that way afterwards you guys can have some hot role-playing sex.

Under my local laws. That would be illegal as she is younger than me. But this is why I debated the envy idea over Grell Sutcliffe. ;D

All that matters are the laws where the con is held...

This man speaks the truth.

Go as Greed. I don't know what Greed looks like, but figure out a way for it to work.

In no way could I pull off Greed. But next time we are going as L and Light apparently to fulfill her sick Yaoi fantasys xD

What's so sick about yaoi? :<

Next year, you should totally do that. Holding hands of course so you get plenty of yaoi fangirls/boys. I'd take pictures.

With me living in England, and her being under 16 years of age. We probably shouldn't discuss this in public...

I didn't mean for it to be offensive, I was merely joking. It is simply not my cup of tea.

Boo. Bully to the English consent laws. Love is universal. :<

I didn't take offense. o.o

Though maybe it should be your cup of tea. Girls ironically like the gay boys.

EDIT: Totally posting too fast. Should've just hit edit button in previous post.

Okay, this is all I could come up with:

Gil [http://myanimelist.net/character/16211/Gilbert_Nightray/pictures] from Pandora Hearts - just fix up the hair and get some contacts (the yellow eyes are important).

And......um, this probably isn't your thing but you could pull it off:

Kusama [http://myanimelist.net/character/6040/Nowaki_Kusama/pictures] from Junjou Romantica.
But then people will probably assume that you're gay or something...

 

[alerriixx]

I don't follow silly laws, I just don't want to get banned for a post.

Ah England... in the US Age of consent [http://www.webistry.net/jan/consent.html] varies from state to state.

Convince her parents to take you both on vacation to Hawaii.

I like the ideas, I will have to peruse them in greater detail when I wake up, i must be off to sleep now. I will be on in 6 hours though , and btw, people think I am gay literally allll the time.

 

[alerriixx]

Even if you don't come back to this thread. I really appreciate all your time

Edit: And in response to the girls like the gay guys thing. Me and hayley have been together over 2 years. So i'm fine with looking straight for the time being

 

[Nouw]

Go on, you know you want to!

Which games are those pics from? I know Pyramid Head just not the others

If you have to do Anime, do something that covers up your Identity, but still reveals who you are. Like Superman!

 

[USSR]

Go as L from Death Note.

Nothing fancy, just dressed in casual long sleeve shirt with jeans.
Might want to buy a wig, obviously.

 

[Void(null)]

Harley?

You guys missed a prime opportunity to go as Harley Quinn and The Joker...

That i've done, the joker suits my smile. One good halloween.

 

[SageRuffin]

Well.. How about Cloud?

Bad idea. The OP will get more recognition for being someone who isn't seen a lot, like Gene from Outlaw Star or a character from, say, Gundam Wing.

I don't get your point.
Unless you're refering to the fact that he is the main character and probably one out of 100 people who'll cosplay Cloud. Even so, how is that a bad idea?

This may be because I personally don't care for almost anything Final Fantasy related, so when i see a Cloud cosplayer, instead of eliciting a gleeful "Wow! Cloud!" I exude a deadpan "Wow... Cloud...".

I dunno. I'm a bit of a "tourist" of sorts, so I prefer something new and exotic than overdone and outdated, so to speak.

I think I'm starting to sound a bit like a pompous jackass, so I'll just stop here.

You should cosplay as a Pokémon Trainer or Bug Catcher, you kinda strike me as one of them wheny ou said "Tourist of sorts" xD

No thanks. Already got a character I've been rolling with for a few months. Quite awesome if I do say so myself.

 

[superbatranger]

Hmm, maybe if you grow your hair a bit more, you could go as Solid Snake. Hiding in a cardboard box. Yea I know it's not the best suggestion.

 

[escapistraptor]

Cosplaying is awesome. Especially when you do a great job on your costume and really get into your role. It essentially adds a Halloween-esque element to an already great con. Been doing it for years, my avatar is my Dark Link cosplay from the Legend of Zelda.

All ideas would be appreciated and for helping with choosing characters, I'm a fairly muscular built, 16 year old male with neck length hair.

Thank you for any reply

Your question of help choosing characters is a mistake most newcomers make. Don't ask others for help. Pick a character you love, and who matches your physical description (and if you're a physically fit 16 yr old male, congratulations! You fit the description of 50% of all anime characters). For you're first one, pick something easy as well. For example, I'm a dude with black hair and sideburns, so I did Lupin the III, a quick trip to Goodwill and I was all set. You have to work your way up to the hard stuff. Secondly, it doesn't necessarily have to be an anime character. I've seen Video-game characters, Jedi, Harry Potters, Jack Sparrows, Ghostbusters, even the Jolly Green Giant and Dave Chapelle's version of Prince. When one of my good friends wanted to cosplay for the first time, he dressed like J.D. from the American TV show Scrubs. Lots of people still recognized him and loved his outfit and he had a blast. Lastly, don't let your girlfriend force you to do this. It has to be something you want to do.

I'm sorry, was that a tl;dr? I just wanted to help a potential cosplayer out.

You are my hero if you go like this:

This needed to be reposted. You're basically a hero to the world if you go like this.

Alternatively, you could go as any male anime or video game lead... while wearing lipstick and a stuffed bra.
