/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

Well shit

I've only been to Yamato events. Ressaca friends being my favorite, it had plenty of people but you could actually find a place to sit down unlike af.

>>7494128
I miss playing Just Dance on RF.

Got them today.

I'm also going to Anime friends, BGS and Comic Con experience.
Don't be afraid of BGS's lines, I've been there at the last two editions and the lines are always smooth. I wouldn't recommend wearing elaborate cosplay if you want to enjoy the games, unless you'll join the league of legends cosplay contest.
My first time at BGS I won the contest (there were like... five cosplayers, so it wasn't a big deal, also, I only won because I had those brainwave cat ears on) and last year a Zed won the contest ( he was a really nice guy, he's selling his costume now) and there were many more cosplayers than the first time.

Post some of these beautiful Brazilian woman I keep hearing about. (in cosplay ofc)

>>7495960
Yeah, well, we do have beautiful women but, just like everywhere else in the world, they don't attend anime conventions.

>>7495954
>My first time at BGS I won the contest
Cool, did you win anything?

>>7495980
yeah I got a razer orca! Last year the prize was a professional camera. I wonder what will be the prize this year, I really want to try again.

I got a pic of one of the girls in the video.

>>7495983
Well that's pretty great.

>>7495977
This.

Anime cons are full of ugly people.

>>7495984
Implying you wouldn't hit all of them.

>>7496010
Maybe not the one in the middle. Looks too young.

>>7496016
They all look on the youngside, not my first choice to be honest but shit if I got some looks while doing league cosplay I wouldn't say no~

>Show some ID first though to be sure.

>>7496029
No way the one in red is younger than 18.

The one with the hat looks young because of her face but she's probably over 18 as well.

>>7496044
I've seen tits on all sorts of jailbait, don't take any chances anon.

>>7496029
>>7496057
Unless the person is younger than 15 age doesn't prevent brazilians from hooking up with each other. It's how things work around here.

>>7496061
>>7496057
According to the law:
- anything below 14 is a crime no matter what
- 14(?) 15 16 and 17 year olds are ok, we had a law where the family could press charges agaisnt the adult but it was revoked in 2009

I'm not a lawfag but that's what I found out.

I only get with adults anyway.

>>7496088
>not giving an awkward cutsey girl that follows you throughout the day after the first photo, her first orgasm and a proper dicking at your hotel room.

are you even human.

>>7496099
You can't take a brazilian minor to a hotel room without a written consent from their parents.

>>7496101
I like this law.

Saw this girl posted on another board. Inaccurate cosplay though.

To anyone going to BGS, there's also the ending's sale.
Razer sells every headset and mouse that were used by other stands for a lower price and give the same warranty as a new item would have. Last year I got a headset and mouse for $150. Just had to clean them up and they were good to go.

>>7496412
>Just had to clean them up and they were good to go.
You used alcohol to remove all that AIDS?

>>7496429
sure, aids is transmitted through touch.

>>7496331
Soooo cute, though. I'd chill and talk about Yume Nikki with her.

>>7496450

Wrong series.

Has anyone ever been to Anime Party?

For me it was the least fun convention. I prefer when they have more people and a bigger place.
At least it was only 15 reais to get in.

Do lolitas go to this sort of event? I wanna make new loli friends!

>>7496656
Yeah they go.

>taking the SP subway to some convention
>wearing one of my best anime t-shirts
>wondering if people are thinking I'm some weirdo
>see this lolita in her full glory
>no fucks given
There's always some lolitas.

Also, also, also: what do brazilian lolitas think of cgl? I don't really know any lolitas irl, but from what I've seen online, they really hate people who post here. Is that really so?
Sage because offtopic, I guess.

>>7496670
I remember this brazilian chan ran by some fat lolita called Magali-chan. It was a chan for women.

They had a lolita board and it was actually quite popular and active. The chan ended one day because of the constant raids by brchan.

>>7496672
Yeah, around Liberdade, right? I've seen some but I'm always too shy to talk. I was thinking maybe at a con I get something to start talking about? A fandom, or whatever.

>>7496679
You may be talking about arrozal. Magali-chan is still active, just using another domain. No lolis there as far as I know. I knew arrozal and it was all about drama, which surprisingly, I don't care very much about.

>>7496708
There's always lolita rooms on anime conventions. You should totally go.

>>7496708
>Magali-chan is still active, just using another domain.
Well shit

I thought Magali-chan was gone for good a long time ago. Good to see they found another place.
I'm sure the userbase is probably mostly male though. The good part of the lolita board was that it was actual women browsing and not just dudes pretending.

>>7496716
I probably will, then! I heard about the one on AF and I thought it was a pretty awesome idea! I haven't been to an anime convention since AnimeCon. lol It will be fun even if I don't meet anyone.

>>7496730
lol
I *bet* the userbase is mostly male. I like it there, still.

>>7496656
>>7496670

Yes we do go to anime conventions.
I just don't think the brazilian lolita comunity is good enought. Experienced lolita like to sell theyr shit clearly overpriced and there's lots of scams, also, some "famous" lolitas have the shittyest personalitys.
Clearly not even close to european or japanese lolitas, close to none of us would be accepted here on cgl, since there's also many fatty-chans or wear milanoo tier dresses and think boyline is the ultimate brand

>>7496757
I just spent some time on Magali and to be honest I'm feeling depressed now. They talk so much about sex and relationships that I felt completely out of place since I'm a weirdo loser who never experienced that.

I like how Brazil is apparently less afraid of guns/gun shaped objects than the US is, nevermind the US' massive number of privately owned guns

>>7496871
>decide to check out the place
>sex sex relationships sex
>some 21yo girl talking about how she hooked up with some 15yo boy and now wants to take his virginity
>everyone says she should go for it
Ok

>>7496874
As a europoor I'll never understand why everybody in the US doesn't own a gun.

>>7497213
>>7496871
Why not just talk about your lack of a relationship and throw your story out there.

>>7497398
>Why not just talk about your lack of a relationship and throw your story out there.
Well the point is that the place sounds like facebook but masked as a chan.

>>7496874
actually we can't have gun shaped oys or airsoft guns here.
Even nerfs are kinda prohibited, depends on where you're going.

>>7496812
Actually, that's exactly what I get from the online community.
Though I like to believe there are nice girls with good sense of style and job money to buy good clothes out there. I hope I get to meet some sometime.

Are you going to AF, anon?

>>7496331
Was this photo taken on Up!ABC this weekend? IThe background looks a lot like it. I was there but I didn't see her

>>7497638
Nope, it was on Ressaca Friends or Anime Dreams, I dunno.

If we get some people interested we could have a little get together at AF.

>>7497646
I think we should! I think I'll go to AF only in the second weekend.

Also, does anyone know a facebook store called Yahime Shop? They are having a wig sale and I want to buy one of them, but I dont know if they have a good rep.

>>7497654
Yeah I think most people would on the second weekend.

No idea about that store, sorry.

Lolita here. I'll agree partially with >>7496812, the community in Brazil sucked, but some local communities are great, the Belo Horizonte one is doing very well, as I've heard.

I'm an intentional loner because the comm in São Paulo is terrible. Sometimes I bump into some really embarrassing people when I head out to Liberdade to get magazines, I prefer to avoid it.

This year I'll be attending Festival do Japão (in lolita) and CCXP in December (in cosplay, but not anime).

>>7496670

hueLoli here: Personally, I think /cgl/ is better than in my area. People in sp are a bunch of passive agressive bitches/two faced bitches, hiding from the main community in sub communities on facebook, that looks like those silly us sorority college communities.

Some lolitas are pretty cool and decent, but those bodyline "brand" bitches, landwhales itas and cosplayers chan would have their sorry asses so kicked in the international community.

So it's better to stick to international community and be a loner.

>>7497676
I live close to São Paulo but my parents live there, so I'm there almost every weekend.
I love to wear lolita in São Paulo. It's a lot less likely to be harrassed by idiots than in the city I live in. You're lucky, anon!

I'm a loner too but mostly because the lolitas I got to know are so young we have nothing in common. I'm 24 so, besides lolita, my hobbies include dining at expensive places, theaters, wine tasting... Can't share those experiences with 16-18 year olds.

I wish I had a cute loli friend to come with me to Best of Blues Festival. But I often feel that most sp lolis don't listen to anything that doesn't come from Japan.

>>7497682
>but those bodyline "brand" bitches, landwhales itas and cosplayers chan would have their sorry asses so kicked in the international community
That's exactly why I'm a regular here. The daily group on fb is such a hugbox. If I need help with shopping or putting an outfit together, /cgl/ is my only and best friend.

>>7497621
I plan to.
I'm making my first serious coord (only been into casual lolita till now since I don't work yet) and I plan to wear it at AF.
It will be a gothic/guro coord, but totally handmade, I've been sturying lolita dresses and construction for the last two years and decided to give it a shot.

>>7497696
also, my english sucks, it's easy to know when it's me writing stuff here on /cgl/

>>7494016
>Brazil
>half the cosplayers do League of Legends
I don't know what I expected

>>7497702
that gif was made at a game con, what did you expect?

>>7497704
Less truth in stereotypes?

>>7497706
There weren't so many league of legends cosplayers, to be honest, it is just that those were the one on this video. I was part of a byg Ace Attorney group with at least 10 members, there were WoW cosplayers, GC cosplayers and a nice variety of console games in general.

>>7497713
Probably they were filming close to the LOL place.

>>7497646
Let's! I'm super up to it! I mean, lolitas are invited too, right?

>>7497696
Awesome, anon! If I see a guro loli walking around AF I'll be sure to say hi!
I'll probably be wearing the pic related on the 18th or 19th so wave back, please. lol

>>7497691
I wish I could go with you, anon, but I'll be in the middle of my exams week. It seems like it'll be super fun, tough. I hope you enjoy it!

>>7497733
>Let's! I'm super up to it! I mean, lolitas are invited too, right?
Of course they are.

Do you guys think it's appropriate to go in lolita to Comic Con? I feel it's very out of the dress code.

>>7497845
I went to the Argentinian Comic-Con in toned down loli and it wasn't so out of place so you could go for it.
Man, I moved to Argentina and I don't miss Brazil. the loli comms were all awful. Here there is a little of elitism but at least nobody's such a bitch.

does anyone do drugs in cons here? I always smoke weed before going but I was considering doing acid this time.

>>7498842
No I don't even drink alcohol.

>>7498842
The only people I see trying to get in with drugs are the lamest kind of otaku.

>>7499093
agreed.

>BR thread
>all this lack of brown girls
faggots

hey lolitas go to the sales group, tretas.

>>7499716

This is such a light treta. Fantastico treta was an A- treta. In this thread it just a random being butthurt with her shitty sexshop lolita announcement being erased and people there feeling so edgy while scolding her.
We need a behind the bowls version hue. It would be funny as hell.

>>7499402
I thought this girl looked pretty awesome.

>>7500093
>nope.jpeg

>>7499093
I should have figured brazilians are too HUE to enjoy drugs without HUEing.

>>7500120
Sorry I don't go to anime conventions to hang out with criminals.

>>7500093
>tall brown girl
I can't handle these feels

>>7500093
Cute kid but her wig needs a lot of work

>>7500139
>I grow my own weed in a vase
>not a crime
>you download your animu
>that is actually a crime
>mfw

>>7500390
I pay for my anime, you junkie.

>>7500525
Yeah, right. As if.

Back on topic, this is Comic Con Brasil first year, right? Do you think it'll suck like every other con we have? Who's organizing it anyway?

>>7500679
I'm sure it's gonna be normalfag and causal as fuck. We don't have a big comics market in Brazil.
I'm going but I've never read a comic in my whole life.

>>7500767
>We don't have a big comic market in Brazil
>FIQ

There will be a lot of weebs and otakus and I'm sure they will ruin the whole experience. I'm glad we finally have an artists alley though.

I visit SP a lot and was thinking of going to a con. I don't really speak br though, will that be a problem? Also what's the comic community like? Are there any good comic shops in SP? I've been intending to visit Liberdade, going to do it the next time I visit.

>>7501455
I don't think it'd be a problem, but it would be better if you went with someone who did speak the language.

I'm not sure about the comic community, but I know they have a good comic shop called Comix Book Shop at avenida paulista. In a couple weeks they'll be hosting an event called Fest Comix, I just bought two tickets for the weekend.

>>7501455

Well anon,as someone who lives in sp and work close to Liberdade, I'm not gonna sugarcoat and say that you won't have a bad time,specially on Liberdade area cause is a central part of city with less english speakers, but there you can find all sort of animu/mango and be in touch with all your weeaboo needs (there you can find some small japanese bookstores, kinokuniya alike). Try to go during the week, cause on weekends is crowded as hell. Also, I hugely recommend going to Paulista street, where you can find Geek bookstore and a few other comic stores, and you won't have huge communication problems in this place, but there is nothing special, if you compare to other countries.

Our biggest con is kinda shitty. I have a friend from France who went to animefriends and couldn't communicate at all. (The average of our con attendees are kinda stupid poorfags, they are the classic hue). So I strongly recommend you go accompanied by a Brazilian friend, to enjoy better your con experience.

I'm not in the comic community, but sometimes I tend to get in some con with friends. In my opinion, Comic cons and Video Game cons are better and people there tends to be more polite.

That's it. I hope it helps you, anon.

>>7496450
Mirai Nikki, not Yume Nikki.

>>7501455
hey anon, I can find you some great helpers if you want and don't have any portuguese speaking friends. Some of my college friends became private english teachers. And since I'm talking about game design college, they'll know where to take you.

>>7501347
FIQ is a good con, but only because it isn't in São Paulo. If it was, there'd be a lot more HUEing, which is what I expect from CCXP.
The crew working on it is not Yamato or Animecon though, so we might yet have hope? I'm not particularly interested in comics though, so I'm waiting to make sure they'll have more pop-culture related atractions before making a decision to go.

Are brazilian cons like american cons where there's a huge party scene with raves and people getting drunk and high and having casual sex?

>>7503055
no. Gross.

>>7503325
So much for the country of promiscuity.

>>7502793
I was so thankful when I saw Omelete making the ComiCon, since Yamato manages to ruin everything it touches. When I saw they posting on their fb how they listened to us and added some bathrooms to the next AnimeFriends, I seriously wanted to punch the staff.

But you are right, the HUE will ruin CCXP. They called severall good comic artists to the con, and their followers keep asking about movie stars and shit.

Sorta off topic, but how do cosplayers and lolitas even buy their cosplays, lolita wear or merchandise with your kind of customs?
I heard they tax a shitload and it's almost impossible to get a reasonably priced videogame cause of some old law.
Is it as bad as I've heard?
Also, how are the prices usually for certain kinds of merchandise (ie: figurines, hats, wigs, artbooks) sold in Brazilian cons?

>>7504527

>>7504527
>how do cosplayers and lolitas even buy their cosplays, lolita wear or merchandise with your kind of customs?

-Mark down the value of the package trick.
-People here travel a lot to buy stuff in other countries (i.e US)
-Paraguay is over there, and there is a lot of cheap electronics
-Second hand sales.
-Cosplay accessories like wigs or small things are usually very unlikely to be taxed.
- Cloth is cheap.
-Art-books, comics and manga are under free taxation law.

and other hundred examples.

>>7503405
It makes sense for the social outcasts of Brazil to be prudes.

>>7504563
Thank you for clearing that up for me. :>

>>7495984
>>7496331
>>7500093
How easy are br women if you're a foreigner?

I went to Thailand last year and the women there worshiped white men. Maybe I should go to Brazil.

>>7504747
The majority of the people here are white. If you aren't particularly atractive in your country, you won't be too sucessful here either.

>>7504571
Actually, it's just a different dynamics. People here don't do that in cons, but the great majority go to clubs and throw huge house parties each night after they leave (or room parties, but the hotel thing is not like in the US). Cons are seen as a family-friendly event, and the idea of having raves and hook ups there sound just pathetic and desperate to most of us.

>>7504747
Just say the words "green card" and they'll fall in love with you.

>>7504527
I personally never had problems with my figurines coming from Ami Ami, even if they don't mark down the package value. If the seller marks the package value as lower than U$ 50 it is hardly taxed.

>>7504785
For foreigns, what we call "white" is seen as brown though. I work on a booth on small conventions and I see a lot of black people passing by, they just don't wear cosplay;

>>7504747
unless you're attractive, you'll be just a douche that doesn't speak portuguese.
Also, high chance you'll get lost and robbbed.

>>7504785
Who are you talking about? I've never seen anyone throw parties after cons. Mainly because con goers are virgin neckbeards who live with their moms. Maybe some go to bars or get drunk at Walmart, but nothing close to what people do in other countries.
Brazil is not prude, we're just hypocrites. Maybe because pretty much all of us come from catholic families.
So doing drugs is very wrong u guise, but beer is tots not drugs. And casual sex is too slutty u guise, we'd better just walk around in towels and let the guys jerk off.
Talk about screwed up people?

>>7506021
I've been invited to several after parties, in São Paulo and BH both. Surprisingly fun parties too. Maybe it's the people you know who don't do that? The point of them is to still have geeky fun while excluding the virgin neckbeards, of course.

>>7506126
>>7506021
I've never heard of those parties.

Oh nevermind, I'm actually one of those virgin guys so obviously I wouldn't.

>>7506135
>I'm actually one of those virgin guys
Que nojo.
Virgem a gente não chama kkk

>>7506135
It's just that it's a friend thing. I mean, nowadays we have what, 15k con attendants per day? The biggest after party I've been to had barely 200 people. Perhaps you and your friends should start throwing their own parties. That might help with your current, uhm, undesirable status.

>>7506293
I'm not really a party type of guy. I don't even like drinking.

Anyway I was just commenting I hadn't heard about them.

>>7504747
If you dont speak portuguese or are actractive people will think you're just another dumb gringo.
Also, women in Thailand are specially easy (alongside Vietnam and Lao) since they desperately want to flee their shithole country.
You have better chances at getting free pussy in Argentina, guys and girls love foreigners there, specially in Buenos Aires.
