What do you want to cosplay but are worried no one would recognize it?

cosplaying Leonardo from Teenage Ninja Mutant Tortoises because it was the show of your childhood is one thing

cosplaying that is an entirely different thing, since it didn't air when you were 10 year old, it aired when you were 20

Aw yea Storm Hawks! I lost track of the show, dang.

It helps to do a group cosplay of something obscure, but that's sometimes hard to carry out because it can fall through. Though if it's with people you trust and who are also pumped about cosplaying, keeping tabs on each other shouldn't be hard.

Pic related, I think it's pretty strange by itself, but with my friends going as their knights with different outfit, it should be neat. Chances are we'll just have the armor done and not much for shields and weapons for another con.

Oh god I watched every single episode of Storm Hawks. It was kind of the show that brought me to the internet and introduced me to anime and cosplay. So in short it brought me to my cringy weeaboo phase.

Thread related:
I really want to cosplay Akura-ou from Kamisama Hajimemashita but the only people that seem to know the show are just the anime watchers and those that have read the manga haven't even got anywhere near to where this crazy bastard appears.

I finally watched Mister Rococo. It was as stupid as I thought it would be, but damn, I almost want to make a cosplay of the "Marie Antoinette" wrestling outfit. It's just so bad though. I don't think I can handle working with that kind of a shiny fabric let alone wear it.

I'm not sure if any lolitas would recognize it or scoff it off as some sissy costume (or anyone for that matter). Either way, it's so painfully funny and bad.

I feel like most lolitas who have been in the fashion for more than, say, 6 months to a year would recognize it. I know I would, and I'd die of laughter.

Honestly, I was thinking about the physique when I first saw it. I haven't been that swole since my swimming days. My thighs aren't as huge, but lately, my body resembles a cyclist. Too bad I just want to fit in lolita clothes well again. I can't exactly do that if I look like I can lift a full grown man.

Tatsuya from Kurohyou. The problem is the cosplay will set me back 1000 bucks since this is authentic DressCamp clothing.

So it's both fashionable and can be used as cosplay!

This looks familiar but I can't remember where it's from

Yeah if I can get a group going that would be perfect. It's probably not cosplayed much because of it's minimal notoriety outside of Canada.

I want to cosplay pic related. I absolutely love the character but no one would know who I were even if I find a Casshern.

Plain, and not to mention I'd be dying in it since all the cons I go to are really warm when and where they're held. I just can't win.

I think people would recognize Casshern at least and make the connection, he's pretty recognizable!

The sheer amount of "What D.Gray-man character are you?" I got the last time I cosplayed from this series was infuriating. I really wanna do it again because Tania is a dream costume for me, but ohhhhh the headaches.

I know the Uta no Prince sama isn't obscure but... I want my friends and I to cosplay as HEAVENS from the second season. I think we'll be mistaken as casual closet cosplay Aizen, casual closet cosplay Sebastian from Kuroshit, and a random OC shota boy. It doesn't help that Kira from Heavens has a similar hairstyle to Sebastian and share the same voice actor.

Oh wow, personally I find they each are recognizable by themselves though of course it'd be easier if in pairs or in groups.

I've cosplayed Arago before (with his crazy flaming arm, Brionac, because he's super plain otherwise), but no one had any clue who I was. Not like I was expecting anyone too, but I would really love to do some of his other outfits and still plan on redoing my Brionac with some sort of clear acrylic and LED lighting effects, but it's a bit hard to get really pumped when you know no one will know who you are, you know? /whine

And now I'm off to find Storm Hawks episodes, thanks a lot, thread.

>>6939966
I have wanted to do a Kakurenbo group for YEARS. But yeah… I think it's one that needs a group or it becomes "Oh, what Naruto character are you?" or something.

>>6933897
This would be really awesome, though. Akura-ou!!
