Eastern fans come in a thousand ways, so there are practical segmentations of our community, a great example of classification is shown wotakoi, where we are presented with the three great amateur slopes: gamer, otaku and cosplayer—although non-fans say that all lovers of oriental popular culture are the same—. For its part, cosplay is a part of our community that requires a lot of planning, care and, of course, investment.
What is cosplay?
Cosplay — contraction of costume play: “incarnation of costumes” — is based on dressing up as a fictional character — from manga, anime, comics, movies, series or video games—. However, the essence of the characters changes greatly depending on the cosplayer and their commitment – the detail, the investment and the correspondence of the character with their physical characteristics.
There are several things that must be taken into account to cosplay, but everything is based on the cosplayer’s ideology when starting each project. There are people who are very rigid as to what kind of person can embody which style of character, while others enjoy giving a new nuance to their projects, in turn there are those who will modify everything that is necessary to make the perfect cosplay. .
There are amateur cosplayers and there are professionals. However, as they say out there, as long as you want to carry out something, it will be enough for you to investigate and accommodate your time and budget.
ways to cosplay
There are many ways to cosplay and each of us can venture into them from our budget, skills and possibilities. For example, there will be someone who can order it done—taking care of every detail—, other skilled people can do it with their own hands and perhaps, also who can afford it prefabricated—high or low range.
Each option is valid and has its pros and cons.
Next we will present some pages in which you can acquire the costumes, in them there are the classifications of characters by series or video games.
Uwowo
It is an online store with a wide catalog of recent anime and video game costumes, and it also has very affordable prices.
DokiDoki
On the other hand, we also have DokiDoki, on this page you will even find the wigs with the specific cuts of the characters.
cosplay
On this page, in addition to costumes for anime and video game characters, you will find superhero outfits.
However, you always have to take into account what shipments entail, both in price and delivery times. These boutiques have promotions for Halloween.
There are other types of costume stores —in general—, such as Light in the box and even Amazon, which, despite not being specialized stores, in them you can find some of the most popular outfits and, with some luck, at discounted prices.

Basic rules for beginners looking to emerge victorious in the world of cosplay
- Choose a character that you really like and that is similar—at least a little—to you.
This will be essential, especially since then you will not have to modify yourself and invest a lot to resemble the character.
- The character should have a simple outfit.
Again, in this way, you will also see that even the most “simple” outfits are not so simple. Each one takes planning and care.
- You must have a wide time range.
Before your convention or the day you want to present yourself to the world as your selected character, to improve every detail, for example, in this way, you will have time to list objects, fabrics and accessories in various places. This is good to economize and to search or make the most perfect piece.
There are details that you can do yourself but, even if they are cheap, you will need your ingenuity and time to rewrite them. For example, you could even make your armor and weapons in plenty of time.
- Much encouragement and patience: in the end, one thing is the design that you recreate of the character and another question, all the charisma that you manage to imprint on it.
You can a round for Discord and don’t miss the news on Google news.
