If i cosplayed __________, who would know it?
« on: April 22, 2010, 10:04:30 am »
Not going to lie, it sucks cosplaying a character no one knows, because you don't get identified and you dont get pictures usually either.

You are curious to see who and how many do know it.....though.....so go ahead and ask......

Please keep it to series or sources not commonly known. There is another thread if you just want to share your cosplay plans.

Izaya from Durarara is a nope, but I would swear I recognized you from somewhere. Would try for your picture because of that and figure it out later.

If I cosplayed Demon King Chestra from Violinist of Hameln, who would know it?

I know him.
Durarara is actually getting quite popular (there's something on the front page of DA that has to do with it every other day).

Zephyr and Leanne (for a friend) from the game Resonance of Fate.

Also, Manah from Drakengard 2.

Worth asking about. :)

gotta remember that even though there's a lot more people who just watch online or thru other means of shows that arent yet released here stateside, theres a ton more who have no idea about chatacters from shows like minami kei, queens blade, yozakura quartet, durarara, angel beats, ef tales of memories, etc...

kurokami just got released and there was two cosplayers last year @ ndk that i noticed were doing the Kuro thing, but no one really cared, which sux'd :/

- just a lil fyi :P

Are you going to do her regular form or her ultimate shaman form?  :)  I'll have to look for you when you do Nina, she's one of my favorite characters from that game, aside from Bleu.

I'd know who you are.

I'd know Nina from Breath of Fire and Demon King Chestra from Violinst of Hameln as well.
The person who says it cannot be done should not interrupt the person doing it.

I know who Nina is and I have heard of Mint.

I'm curious to see if anyone would know Adol from Ys, if they saw him.

Heck Yesss~

I'm going to be doing both forms while Doodle (Gaara-spike) will be Mina and Shamanized Katt.  <3

i cosplayed magical emi once at NDK 6, i think it was. only 2 ppl recognised me: george and linus lam.

there was a kid at anime detour this weekend cosplaying gegege. i'm quite positive that only myself and roger knew who she was. i'm betting that only george has heard of gegege.
