Whats the deal with those girls who always have to have to cosplay the main character or the high femme character all the time? In groups, they always insist on being the main girl (like miku, madoka, sailor moon, etc.) because its like they dont get enough attention in their every day life.

>> No.9854523

They tend to be really crazy like Kelly Eden. She's always making herself the center in Sailor Moon groups and things like that.

If you ever meet someone like that, try to steal the main girl from them. Their reaction will tell you who they really are.

High femme is a lesbian thing, retard. Pretty sure you're not talking about drama queens poaching lesbian characters.

NYART, but it’s not always a lesbian thing. It can just mean something that’s ultra feminine

literally not even what high femme means

it is kind of weird when people can only be the main character, but desu i think it may be because for some shows the main is written as kind of a blank slate so people can project onto them and relate

>> No.9856056

What is it to you what other people want to cosplay? Some people just have a taste for certain types of characters or they feel that they suit them more.
As much as I like some mature looking characters I do not have the height or facial structure to pull them off and would look ridiculous trying to do so.

I mean, this is cosplay, who isn't doing it for attention these days?

I'd guess this is often the case. And you probably don't notice them when they aren't in these roles.

I always preferred to do my favorites, s maybe for some of these girls their favorite is the main character, which isn't really a bad thing.

>> No.9861075

i always talk about this kind of thing with my friends. there are girls who always cosplay what i like to call "ultimate waifus" they are usually characters a lot of guys swoon over for example:
sonico, dva, yuno, harley quinn, megumin, etc.
these are the same cosplayers that do "flavor of the month" cosplays too like darling in the franxx and doki doki literature club which have been the recent ones. i don't know, its basically just an attention grab to get more popularity imo.

its not JUST cosplaying popular things, you are completely missing the point. its people ONLY cosplaying things that are popular just because they are popular.

>its people ONLY cosplaying things that are popular just because they are popular.
but unless they've straight up said they only cosplay popular things because they're popular, you're just making assumptions because of your bitterness. There's nothing wrong with having basic taste and liking popular shows; they're popular for a reason.

>> No.9861986

op it sounds like you have some hatred for someone or some people specifically and are trying to feel better. I would focus on yourself. They are probably dumb bitches, but it's not because they always have to cosplay those characters.

>> No.9862032

Any person in a cosplay group who always insists on being the main character is super annoying, dudes do it just as much in my experience. I don’t see the problem with people always cosplaying a main character outside of a group though.

>> No.9862116

Personally I try to be the main character in groups because my friends don't cosplay a lot, and I like to have something that is stand alone. However for shows like madoka magica all the girls are pretty great and stand alone imo so I wouldnt care. Sometimes I trade costumes with my friends so they are mc (and I'm the tall one)

Maybe they just like those characters? I have cosplayed both popular and obscure, main and secondary characters.

Also there are anime shows were the secondary characters are better and more cosplayed that the main ones, like the vampires from Owari no Seraph.

Because they go hand in hand. Of course the girls who want to cosplay girly characters will cosplay the main girl in girl shows because those characters are girly girls.

You're literally dumb. The characters are being cosplayed much and that's why they're popular, people like them, not the other way around.

nayrt, but that is where the term originally came from - not as a stand-alone marker of expression, but as a term used in conjunction with stone butch. “High” denotes sexual submissiveness; “stone” denotes dominance, and often doesn’t let themselves be fucked at all. People talk about stone femmes, but I don’t know if that really has caught on at all.

Who the fuck actually likes harley quinn (this modern interpretation anyway)?

Sonico, dva, yuno, megumin all have actual personalities that are endearing, funny and relateable. Harley Quinn is just sheer bandwagon horseshit riding on the 'choke me daddy' trend. It's just such obvious fetish pandering that I can't take it serious or find it funny or find it attractive.

I never noticed a "high femme" thing (though I suppose now that you mentioned it they do tend to stick to super girly anime- probably due to bad taste).

I always just figured people who hoard the main character wants attention/can't handle the idea of someone in their group being better than them. Usually if they do it multiple times I'll give them a side eye.

Unless they truly are of course the best at sewing/cosplaying in their group. Then I suppose it's fine and makes sense. But then again there is nothing stopping them from purposely only letting shittier cosplayers join their group.
