Redwillowhearts · Post by **Redwillowhearts** » Wed Nov 29, 2017 2:48 pm

It's time again for the obligatory "Who will you be?" thread. It's never too early to announce your lineup!
My tentative lineup right now is:
Villain! Deku: Boku no Hero Academia
Eri: Boku no Hero Academia
Allura: Voltron: Legendary Defender
Chise: Ancient Magus Bride
and probably one more that I haven't decided on yet

Animelover995 · Post by **Animelover995** » Wed Nov 29, 2017 3:09 pm

My line up is smaller than usual but still pretty big! ^_^

Absolutes:
Christophe Giacometti from YOI
General Hux from SWTFA (P.S. Looking for a Kylo Ren who wants to chill at con!)
Lavi Bookman Jr. from D. Gray-Man

Potential Last Additions:
Riza Hawkeye from FMA (only if my friend finishes Roy)
Kakashi Hatake Gaiden from Naruto (still debating...)

Post by **Cerebral_Boar** » Wed Nov 29, 2017 6:14 pm

I was wondering when this thread would appear! My lineup is-
Solidus Snake, Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty
Han'nya, Rurouni Kenshin

ApocalypseUnicorn · Post by **ApocalypseUnicorn** » Wed Nov 29, 2017 10:14 pm

Yaaassss, I'm super excited to see everyone's cosplans! Here's my plans!:
- Makkachin from "Yuri On Ice"
- Light Yagami from "Death Note", with a hand-built Ryuk puppet! (I love making puppets, and I couldn't resist using one to make my "Death Note" cosplay stand out)
- Robert Small from "Dream Daddy"
I'm planning to apply certain costumes to certain cosplay events, but I won't go into detail to maintain the surprise! Robert is the only one I don't have a concrete plan for, because I want to do Cosgames or cosplay events as much as I can, but I also want to cosplay this very much non-Japanese originated character really, really badly, so I'll have to make a compromise somewhere. We'll see if I add anyone else based on when we get more details about the Cosgames, I suppose. I already have these three in progress though, so they'll make an appearance for sure, one way or another!

Post by **MandaTifa** » Thu Nov 30, 2017 8:14 am

Friday - Inuyasha
Saturday - Original Costume
Sunday - Princess Leia

I'm pretty excited.

Thrillho · Post by **Thrillho** » Wed Dec 06, 2017 11:39 am

I'm definitely bringing back Haruko and Zant, though I'm not sure what else to do. I'm scrambling through all my anime trying to find more ideas.

Definites:
Komachi Onozuka (Touhou Project)
White Mage (Final Fantasy)

Possible:
Juvia Lockser (Fairy Tail)
Gowther (Nanatsu no Taizai)

I'm currently waffling around between a bunch of different characters at this point for the third, so it's a Mystery. I'll probably make my final decision in a few weeks!

Runeofages · Post by **Runeofages** » Sat Dec 16, 2017 12:07 am

This is my planned 90-100% complete costume line-up:

Wind Waker Link
Gudako Mage Association Mystic Code (Fate Grand Order)
Emil Castagnier (Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World)

I really want to bring Emil back a second year hopefully with my sheath issue fixed cause I really like that one but I might not be able to come into Boston early like I wanted so I might end up dropping him if I have to travel late. Or maybe I'll save Link for another year, I haven't really decided yet.

Gudako is definitely staying for all of Saturday though so heads up to any Fate cosplayers. My Quartz will be ready for you.

almightycows · Post by **almightycows** » Sat Dec 16, 2017 10:57 am

Plague Knight (Shovel Knight)
Inko Midorya (Boku no Hero Academia)

toyrobin · Post by **toyrobin** » Mon Dec 25, 2017 6:49 pm

I haven't decided yet! My friend and I were considering Sailor Moon costumes before we realized it would be too cold...
I'm thinking my friend and I will go as Taako and Lup from TAZ on one of the days, and maybe a couple of the girls from ddlc on a different day (if I can ever get Monika out of my computer lol)
although knowing me I'll probably change my mind another six times before the con, so I'll most likely be frequenting this thread ^_^

Selestyl · Post by **Selestyl** » Tue Dec 26, 2017 8:49 am

I am definitely bringing post-Altissia fen!Ignis from FFXV! If money lines up, I’d also love to bring Heine from The Royal Tutor, but that one needs custom made so I’m not holding my breath. Otherwise I’ll probably rewear Ema from Ace Attorney, and if I can buy a better sealant and more paint I’ll rewear Piccolo from DBZ as well!

soulshipping · Post by **soulshipping** » Fri Dec 29, 2017 7:30 pm

I plan on going as a causal Hawke (Dragon Age 2 player character) one of the days, as well as possibly bring my Sadie Miller (Steven Universe) cosplay if I find the time/energy to fix it... c':

foreverfinn · Post by **foreverfinn** » Thu Jan 04, 2018 10:19 pm

I'm not sure yet, but my lineup is in my signature! For now, I know I'm doing Wonderful Rush Rin with my love live group saturday morning! I'm also doing cheer nozomi on friday with my eli, but that could be moved if things change. Saturday night and friday morning/night are both still open for me! Since I'm already doing a lot of love live, I may do some danganronpa or maybe wear alois (black butler)! I'm really excited, and anyone hmu if you'd wanna do a group cos for those fandoms!

Diane (SDS)

Backup

Hm, some of the ones I'll definitely be going as would be,

Friday: Nagisa Shiota from Ansatsu Kyoshitsu
Saturday: 9S from NieR:Automata
Sunday: Nico Yazawa {candy dress} from Love Live!

I'm debating on either bringing back Ram (Re:ZERO) since I had a lot of fun cosplaying her along with my sister since she was Rem but I'm not too sure. I'm also thinking of doing Ririchiyo Shirakiin either on Saturday Evening or Friday Evening. However, I'm not entirely sure, I might just go ahead and do either of them on Thursday instead.
