Photographs will be forthcoming!

It's okay, being photographed is part of the the whole cosplay thing.

Remember to keep an eye out for free-range cosplayers too. Harajuku is a good spot for 'em apparently.

There is a recurrent theme developing in my posts...  I keep saying 'I don't like *insert word here*'

I don't like 'Cosplay'...  Whatever is wrong with 'Fancy Dress'? It was called 'Fancy Dress' or 'Dressing Up' for decades, then up pops a term that isn't required.

Not only that some people describe 'LARP' as 'Cosplay'.  Which kind of blurs the difference between two (or more) very different hobbies/pastimes.

I can put up with cosplay for 'people going to a covention in fancy dress'... I guess... *shrugs grumpily*

Last time I went to one I was too embarrassed to go up and ask any of the cosplay girls to pose for a photo with me but this time, fuck it, I don't care.

Photographs will be forthcoming!

I know exactly how you feel. I've felt like a perv asking for pics. Mostly becuase, they're young enough to be my daughter.

Yeah it's almost as annoying as people referring to 'LRP' as 'LARP' but then both LARP and Cosplay are not British terms. I'm pretty sure Cosplay outside of the confines of a convention is just dressing up mind.

LARPing without a vowel makes you sound a little like Stallone trying to claim he is the Luurrrrgggggh. I realise the A is redundant, but it does make it nicer to say.

My friends use both LRP and LARP...  never know which to use...

Not to mention shops named 'Having a LARP' and 'LRP Store' - some consistency would be nice...

I think it's a Tomb Raider. Obviously getting a bit desperate as the market desaturates...

Her VPL is showing
You ever notice that everyone who believes in creationism looks really unevolved? Eyes real close together, big furry hands and feet. "I believe God created me in one day." Yeah, looks like he rushed it.
