Cosplay Edition

February 2013

I know there are some people out there saying, "What the heck is Cosplay (and how do I pronounce it)?"

Cosplay (kahz-play) is a Japanese phrase used to indicate people who dress like characters, usually from Japanese Cartoons (anime) and Japanese Comics (comics). The word no long applies exclusively to anime and manga. It now represents any kind of costuming typically found at fandom conventions and events. You can hear it applied to Harry Potter, Superheroes, Heroes from novels and internet meme characters, in addition to the original variations.

Ok, so why am I talking about that here? Simple. It has become a cycled interest for me! Yay!

I have a group of friends and we all gather together to hang out, make costumes, talk about our characters and the costume creations, watch anime, find more cosplay and just keep encouraging each other.

How will I make this page a 'Cosplay' edition? Well... I guess it is just going to be text for now! But perhaps I will have some new art. Yeah... we'll hope for that.
