Yep.
I’m still marveling at the characterization of body armor and spandex as “simple.” Just, no.
Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-?! O.K. even if you’re saying they’re simpler, what the hell body armor and weaponry and spandex and cape have YOU been looking at lately?! And urm… that’s all stuff female characters wear too.
O.K. you know what, let’s take that “simple” part out completely because the minute you think any costume is simple as a cosplayer you’ve already screwed yourself. In fact, personally, it’s the simple characters that I think are the most complicated to pull off, because their outfits aren’t really distinguishable unless if you can nail their hair or face or their mannerisms. "Let’s do school girl/school boy so and so,“ yeah that’s fine but there’s about a zillion characters like this in anime so you better have a damn good wig or nail that pleated skirt or those little annoying checker marks in the Persona 4 Yasogami High collars and just… yeah.
Good example. L’s not simple, that’s the mistake you make. "Just a white shirt and jeans and messy hair,” no. If you don’t nail that hair, or the baggy eyes, or the weird way he sits, and if the shirt isn’t baggy enough it’s not going to look right. That and if it’s a popular series where you’re going to see 57 Ls walking around, what’s going to set you apart from the others?
So nothing is simple, male or female, so just stop. Way to discriminate against a particularly large group of cosplayers when you’re trying to get them to watch your show.

Some pictures of myself and my Kanji (Golden epilogue) being absolute derps at Atomic Lollipop. This is how we do. Tons of thanks to our favorite Yu/Igor cosplayer who took these photos for us. And everyone else who was there derping it up with us <3 Next year, oooh, next year…
Oh lord I love this Naoto and Kanji so much. She’s wearing the hat my partner makes, btw. But they’re so cute with their derpy times.

I wanted to share a photo of myself and my fiance cosplaying Snow Villiers and Serah Farron from Final Fantasy XIII! He and I met on an online game so naturally games are very important to us as well as cosplay so when he asked me to cosplay Serah Farron for him (he wanted to be Snow so badly!) I couldn’t refuse and I’m so glad I got the cosplay made to match his Snow! These two mean the world to us and it’s such an honor to bring our all time favorite video game couple to life, especially since we feel we are the most similar to these two out of any other video game characters! After he proposed to me on Valentine’s Day we surprised each other with the Snow and Serah Square Enix official engagement pendants and we plan to wear the necklaces on our wedding day; June 21st, 2014. I absolutely love bringing these two to life (it’s amazing to cosplay an engaged couple while we too are actually engaged) and the fact that they mean so much to us just makes it all the more special. My fiance will always be my Snow and I will always be his Serah. <3

Sharing the cosplay love. This couple is so great! I also realized in sharing my plus sized cosplay love, plus sized guys need love too. I’m always so ready to share the girl love and they do need love, but sometimes I forget about the guys. I didn’t realize that until I saw this awesome guy getting crap for his size >.< but he makes a great Snow and she’s such a cute Serah!
