Emulating cartoon characters that I have watched is one of my favorite things to do when I was just a child. Whether it be American or Japanese cartoons, once I have taken interest in a character, there’s no stopping me. And because of this, my family regularly gives me costumes of my favorite cartoon characters, for they are rather supportive to me and any hobbies that I may have. When I got my first costume, I was so excited and happy! Rather than just acting like my favorite characters, I can now look just like them. I would wear these costumes everyday, preferably at night because it is more comfortable.
I don’t wear costumes regularly now that I’m now a grown up. Despite of that, my interest in costumes remains the same. Today, I have many hobbies, but one of them is definitely collecting costumes. The costumes now are truly highly detailed now compared to back then, in which I am truly fascinated. At times I would go to the net browsing for costumes. While browsing, I would see different kinds of costumes like Superman Costumes, the Simpsons costumes, a Naruto Costume (from the Japanese Anime), StarCraft costumes, a Mr Potato Head Costume, and much more. The sight of such costumes really makes me happy.
Usually, you can only wear your costumes during the Halloween and Christmas seasons, for it is the time where lots of people are having their costume parties. But in these days, there are now costume roleplay, or cosplay, conventions. It is where many people gather together wearing different kinds of costumes. Although cosplay is originally a Japanese term, people from the west are beginning to accept the term. Cosplay in America and Japan are almost the same, with their difference lies on the characters found in such events. For example, American cosplayers commonly feature western characters, so you will see people wearing a Batman costume, a Shrek costume, or a Mr Potato Head Costume during these events. Japanese cosplay, however, commonly feature anime characters. But this rule is not really written in stone. Usually you will see anime characters in American cosplay conventions and western super heroes on eastern cosplay events.
Another fun thing about being a cosplayer is that you can wear costumes not intended for your gender. You can crossdress without raising suspicions about your sexuality during cosplay events. So it is also common to see a boy wearing a Japanese high school girl costume or a girl wearing a Mr Potato Head Costume.
Even if it is only though clothes, costumes can make your fantasy a reality. Because it really is fun, many adults have joined the costume craze. As for me, I think when I have the time I will join some of these events, for they seem a lot of fun. You too should try it at least once. After all, millions of happy cosplayers can’t be wrong!
