Who do you think was the most cosplayed character this year?

I'm going with Kisuke Urahara. Whenever I saw one Kisuke, there was usally another one only a couple feet away. It was kinda creepy...

Well, to be fair, a lot of them had just bought the hat in the dealer's room and wore it around. I don't think that suffices as a full cosplay, but there still were a lot of them. I don't think they rival the Gaara, Naruto numbers.

Naruto, Sasuke, Sakura, or generic Akatsuki #1. I saw a ton of all of those.

Hmm..You may be right. But it wasn't just the hat. The sandals and the cane and the paper fan. I saw em all numerous times!

I saw a WHOOOLE bunch of Ichigos this year. I don't think there were as many of them as there were Naruto folks but there were quite a few.

Either way you look at it, the entire con was overrun by Naruto and Bleach cosplayers...

As a guy who cosplays as Roy Mustang, I am going to have to say there were a ton of ed elrics. But of course this wasn't mentioned before due to the very fact that ed is much to short to be noticed by people.

Yeah, that's right, flamer, have a good laugh. We'll just see who makes it out of the manga alive... I'm willing to bet it's the one WHOSE NAME IS IN THE TITLE!!!

OOC: Every time I turned a corner, I ran into a Naruto cosplayer. Expected, but disturbing nonetheless.

I was sick of seeing the 40+ Gaara's. And most I ran into seemed very rude. >.>

Definitely Urahara. My friend didn't even want to put her's on because of how many were there. She only wore her Urahara taichou for a few hours, and never even put on her regular one.

Other than that, Naruto( this series is always over cosplayed.) and L.

I'm pretty sure they're not going to change the title of Full Mental Alchemist... especially not this late into the manga.. I can't really see them changing it to "Metal Frame Non-State Alchemist", "Metal Limb Repair Girl" or "Skirt Fetish Flame Boy". Just.. wouldn't work.. and considering that Ed is the main character.. you knock him out of the title and you have a name that makes no sense. Without Ed, there's no story.. sorta.. how it goes when you have a main hero.

(By the way, I love Roy xD I just thought that title was funny)

Anyway, I hated the number of Naruto characters. When your friend who's never even seen Naruto decides she never wants to see it again just because the amount of cosplayers annoyed her THAT MUCH, there's a problem xD

but that family who cosplayed was okay... that was really cute, so even if EVERYONE was dressed as naruto characters, they're still awesome xD

They were amazingly adorable. I think the problem with most Naruto cosplayers (by no means all, so please don't take offense unless you're one of the offending parties) is that they tend to be rather immature and rowdy, more so than most cosplayers. Running and causing excessive noise in the halls are just a couple of the things I personally witnessed. So rather than the sheer number, it's the maturity level that bugs me.
At least the Ls just sit around on chairs with their feet up and look at people funny. :D
