Everthing's just given to you. The wig, clothes, accessoiries etc. Everthing you need, perfectly in your size, just tailored for you.

So which character would you choose?

I thought this would be a fun question since from what I've heard, cosplaying can be expensive and really time-cosuming, like to get everything done perfectly for the cosplay.

My answer would be that I would love to cosplay Kanroji from Demon Slayer^^ I've never cosplayed before, I'd actually thought I'd do something daring hahaha. Well since everything would be perfectly tailored for me, it should be alright haha

not a particular character but a member of an organization with cool uniforms like zeon from gundam or the police from patlabor

I want to cosplay as this character, I already have the most important thing I need in order to cosplay this character, now I only need the costume.

I would cosplay as Daru, but that would mean I'd have to shave, so fuck it.

This glorious signature image was created by @Mayumi!

I am the Arbiter of Absolute Truth, and here is my wisdom:

"Anime was always influenced by the West. This is not news.
Shoujo is the superior genre primarily aimed at young people.
Harem/isekai are lazy genres that refuse any meaningful innovation.
There is no 'Golden Age.' There will always be top-shelf anime.
You should be watching Carole & Tuesday."

I would cosplay as a harem protag. Any of them. But I would also need a harem to accompany my cosplay. I assume that would theoretically be provided by the parameters of this thread?

I would probably cosplay as Kuzan, wearing the Admiral uniforme must be cool

I'm not an expert in cosplay but if I had to choose it would definitely be Non Non Boyori's Suguru Koshigaya.

I wouldn't dress up as any particular character, but it would be cool to wear one the Akatsuki's cloaks. Or even dress up in the Black Bulls uniform.

Either Shizuo Heiwajima from Durarara!! or Kei Tsukishima from Haikyuu!! because I already basically look like them; A big, lanky blonde dude with specs. Plus I've always wanted an excuse to wear a waistcoat.

I didn't think about that, but you've got a point so sure why not^^

Hibiki Tachibana, Tanya, or Touko Fukawa. I'm short so my favorites like Guts or a Spartan from Halo would look weird.

Someone tall because I am tall and it narrows my options quite a lot. Bonney (One Piece), Jolyne (JJBA), Momo (BnHA), Ymir (SnK)... I guess these are all I know that have a similar height to mine.

Among those I mentioned my top choice would be Jolyne. She has such a unique and beautiful design and if everything's prepared just for me I'd just go for it.

I'm a cosplayer so I have cosplayed quite a few anime characters already.
I don't have only one favorite character I like to cosplay many of them so it's hard to pick but generally I prefer to cosplay as villainous characters like Rize Kamishiro, Yuno Gasai, Himiko Toga since I find them more interesting I guess.

Nana Osaki. Although I do resemble her a lot, so it would probably be counted as cheating.

Aria Pokoteng from the Aria series. Making a mascot-like costume is far too expensive for my current possibility, but I'd enjoy wearing that a lot.

Having absolutely zero social skill, I'm usually alone at the cons and cosplaying an original character with an unsettling vibe (it comes naturally...) doesn't help.
With that huge cat though, maybe I'd actually fully enjoy a con for once.

I tried a few cosplays and I liked them, but I think female cosplays look much better on my than male, although many male characters look androgynous.
I think the cosplay for Chise looked the best on me.

Eh, my physique doesn't really fit well with cosplay (mostly because of the beard) so I could cosplay as a random character belonging to some organization, but certainly not a specific character

I think cosplaying as a Bleach captain would be hella cool though

I technically cosplayed enough as Chie to paint a portrait of myself as her, albeit genderswapped because clean shaven is not a good look for me, so genderswapped Ryomou Shimei is currently at the top of my list. ...after two years of sit-ups in order to undo the COVID benders.

Rei Kiriyama from 3-gatsu no Lion, probably the most effortless cosplay ever. lol

If taken more seriously, I'd like to cosplay Naofumi Iwatani from Tate no Yuusha no Nariagari.

Up till recently I always had Murasakibara from Kuroko no Basket in mind. I think I could pull him off well and it would be a low-effort cosplay.

But now I'm considering Todo from Jujutsu Kaisen.

I have already cosplayed a lot so probably sth that is too hard/tiresome to make or sth I think I wouldn't pull off. I guess Semiramis from Fate/Apocrypha, that dress and hair are pretty out there and elf ears are hard to do well.
