which costume did you see the most people in? I swear to god there were like 10 billion narutos... i saw 3 narutos a sakura and 2 sasukes through the window from outside the building..its turning into the new pokemon, only older and with a better storyline...(not including filler arcs of doom)

Post by **Sayoria** » Mon Apr 23, 2007 8:18 pm

Narutos, Soul Reapers, Sasukes, Clouds, Ls, Lights, ...etc

And Amazingly, nothing for DBZ characters. A girl I was with was Android 17, and I saw one Goku, that was it.

I was a Naruto, and saw a ton of other Narutos. The thing that seemed different from other years, though, is that they were all younger than I was... and at 18, I'm no old timer.

At about 10am on Friday I made the comment to a fellow staffer that, surprisingly, I hadn't seen many Naruto cosplayers.

I promptly turned the corner and was confronted with >3< Narutos. So you can all blame me for jinxing the con

Naruto and Bleach is WAY too over done .__.

There were a lot of Clouds and I was with one of them. Whenever we'd walk by another Cloud I'd yell for a Cloud fight. Never got one, but maybe that's cause his Buster Sword was a little intimidating.

YES! YES! FINALLY! THE FMA FANDOM HAS GIVEN OVER TO BLEACH AND NARUTO!
Thank god. Now all that is left is us hardcore fans! >:D
Anyway. Yeah, I saw a whole hell of a lot of Naruto cosplayers. Most of them were very young... and annoying. Not all of them, not by a long shot, I have some pics of FABULOUS Naruto cosplayers in my gallery, but it seemed like the vast majority were just taking this chance to get away from the parental units and go crazy.
And the bleach dudes with the black cloaks with the white triangles on 'em were a common sight, too.
There were probably so many Ls because it's such an easy found-item cosplay...

*edit to the person above me: No, you didn't see Eds. You saw people with just the jacket.

Does that really count? lol

tobiinpajamas · Post by **tobiinpajamas** » Mon Apr 23, 2007 10:29 pm

does anyone have a picture of me? i was not a repeat lol...there were only 3 of me and i was the only one in pajamas...

death_god_eyes · Post by **death_god_eyes** » Mon Apr 23, 2007 10:30 pm

I saw about a million Misa-Misas from Deathnote...
and I'm guilty of being one of them, but at least you could tell who I was. There were so many that looked like they just threw on something black and put their hair in pigtails.

We were out in force. I saw about five first-costume's, one second-costume, and two or three of us in Kazekage gear.

What the-

I'm suprised that nobody has said any Kingdom Hearts characters. So I guess I will. Here goes.

Erm, there were many KH cosplayers. >_>

OtakuSakupony · Post by **OtakuSakupony** » Mon Apr 23, 2007 11:04 pm

I saw a ton of Hellsing cosplayers. Not as much as Bleach or Naruto, but there were a lot more than I remember seeing at other cons.

RubyEye · Post by **RubyEye** » Mon Apr 23, 2007 11:13 pm

As much as there was a ton of Naruto cosplayers walking about - there were a few truely unique naruto that need mentioning...

Most significant two that i can think of off hand:

Shuukaku Gaara
Cursed Seal level 2 Sasuke

If either of you two see this, Way to go on AWESOME costumes.
(also one from bleach)
Also I believe there was only one Hollow Ichigo walking around... I could be wrong however.

Captain Fuzzy · Post by **Captain Fuzzy** » Mon Apr 23, 2007 11:14 pm

As much as i love Bleach, Naruto and Death Note, I wont cosplay as anything from them cause there will always be someone with a cooler costume and i'll just feel bad about myself.

I plan on going as something completely random next year, i just have to figure out what

Mmm, I feel the same way. I just have no confidence that I'd be able to outdo someone doing the same thing I was. Despite liking those shows, some nice variety is great.

I think the winner for repeat cosplayer was Gaara though, I beleive I saw the most of those.

Really? I only saw a few Misas unless some of them were so off that I didn't recognize them as Misa...

Perhaps I'm a bit impartial being a Cloud cosplayer, but personally, I always enjoy seeing, high five-ing, and photographing with other Cloud's. The camaraderie is fun!

And if you ever see old-school blue suit Cloud, that's likely me, and I would SO be up for a Cloud fight

(Although I'm pretty sure I'm terrible at posing)

I totally agree with you, Kingdom Hearts was easily what I saw most of. So many organization members.....

Spike Spiegel · Post by **Spike Spiegel** » Tue Apr 24, 2007 1:18 pm

I saw a lot of Naruto, Bleach, Inuyasha, FMA, Vincent Valentines, even a Chaotic Vincent. I saw some Eureka Seven people, and Sailor Moon people, Toboe in human and wolf form, and a Hige. There were a few Spikes, one Faye, one Electra, one Ed, one Julia, and one very talented Gren.

LOL!! Actually, I was surprised that I didn't see more FMA cosplayers this year. I was actually feeling like I was going to be incredibly ordinary by doing FMA cosplay, but I saw very few State Military cosplayers (and OMG, that one Armstrong won the intarnets...)

Naruto, of course. But I saw a lot of GOOD Naruto cosplay this year. This one Temari had the most kickass wig.

OMG, SHINIGAMI!! EVERYWHERE!!

My one staffer who went as Aizen totally won though. He looked AMAZING.

ORG XIII. Lots of Axels...
And KH2 in general. Tons of Keyblades all around.

And I'm surprised that Death Note was as popular as it was this year.

Aviflora · Post by **Aviflora** » Thu Apr 26, 2007 3:07 pm

I think it's fun to go as a more known character... I mean, I know how much time I spent on my costume, and for that, I'm really proud with how it came out. ^^ I don't worry about the other anyway. I just try to think of what I could do better for next year. (ex... Get better shoes.)

Contrary to popular opinion, Naruto is not the only anime character that knows Kage Bunshin no Jutsu (stab me for spelling that wrong, because I think I did) . In fact, it is a little-known fact that is hidden by the general otaku community that Ichigo, Kenshin, Sasuke, Sakura, Katara, Ed, and assorted nekomatas (to name just a few) are all secretly real ninjas.

Thus, they replicate themselves. -solemn nod-

Omg, that Armstrong made me absurdly happy. ^_^ *dances*

And yes, he made a very very good Aizen.
