9/9/2005 10:33:59 AM

Uh, that girl's pretty hot.

9/9/2005 10:34:10 AM

Let's make fun of the skinny hipster faggot who posted this thread in the first place.

shit man, you've converted me!

9/9/2005 10:34:47 AM

hired models. everyone knows that the girls who are really into cosplay look like this:

9/9/2005 11:22:34 AM

Now back to JAPANESE SEIZURE ROBOTS

9/9/2005 11:29:29 AM

These girls are way to hot to be doing this shit. they must have been paid to dress up.

i like anime and stuff, but yeah....cosplay is just too much.

i don't know, you can have some real fun with it. especially in groups. but just dressing up alone is kinda blah...

and i saw some really hot cosplay chicks at otakon this year, they do exist.

9/9/2005 1:46:26 PM

i like how the cat girl is bent over in this pic with the little girl, nice downshirt shot

the baby's father is probably like "hun, lets get this one blown up"

9/9/2005 1:47:50 PM

Gabby is fairly cute for an authentic girl cosplayer, and she's done a TON of really amazing costumes.



http://www.cosplayangel.com for links to more outfits she's done.

[Edited on September 9, 2005 at 3:51 PM. Reason : link]

9/9/2005 3:50:28 PM

out of the 1% that are actually hot, probably 99% are fucking crazy or too annoying to want to be around.

9/9/2005 3:52:17 PM

OH LOOK
HER WEBSITE TURNS MY ARROW INTO A CROSSHAIRS
HOW CLEVER AND SO NOT 2003ish

9/9/2005 4:23:57 PM

That picture of the dude dressed as Tingle from Zelda wins no matter what.

but that was moreorless mocking ReceiveDeath's hentai thread

9/9/2005 4:30:17 PM

what the hell is cosplay? is this some weird nerd thing?

9/9/2005 4:42:36 PM

5^ Yeah I gotta give that girl credit, she's hot and does a very good job of modelling.

9/9/2005 4:46:02 PM

what the shit you think this girl is hot?

9/9/2005 4:52:38 PM

You are correct, sir.

9/9/2005 4:56:21 PM

not hot

9/9/2005 5:12:56 PM

with makeup gets a thumbs up, without gets a thumb about 3/4ths down

9/9/2005 5:21:30 PM

Alright, maybe "hot" is too strong an adjective. She certainly is "pretty" and "attractive," though. You cannot deny this.

[Edited on September 9, 2005 at 5:22 PM. Reason : ^that's a good photo]

9/9/2005 5:22:05 PM

She's definitely bangable.

9/9/2005 5:24:45 PM

the guy on the left HAS to be the one in the citi bank commercial where they're pretend fighting because they don't have a game system...or something like that. NERDS. i can't believe people do this. i thought the star wars conventions were bad enough.

9/9/2005 5:33:57 PM

oh noes nerds

Cosplay is when people dress up as their favorite TV show, anime, videogame, movie, etc character. They make costumes that look like the costumes of that character, and probably even dye their hair so as to match the hair color of said character. Then they walk around and do and say the things that the character would do and say.

So yeah, it's some weird nerd thing.

9/9/2005 6:13:29 PM

so i picture sullivan lounge with costumes, that about right?

9/9/2005 6:57:27 PM

how can you call this dude a loser when he has clearly just won some sort of prize?

9/9/2005 7:02:28 PM

hes afraid to make eye contact with females

9/9/2005 7:03:29 PM

Perhaps, but he may also be staring at their chests, legs, hips, or asses, all of which would require that you don't make eye contact.

9/9/2005 7:18:57 PM

...no, he's totally looking off-stage

9/9/2005 7:21:29 PM

No, you can basically draw a dotted line from his eyes to that girl's titties.

9/9/2005 7:59:56 PM

nope

enlarge the pic if you need to. his right eye's pupil isn't focused on her.

9/9/2005 8:08:48 PM

His eyes are probably just fucked up.

All that subtitle reading and shit.

9/9/2005 8:10:59 PM

so are there typically models like that?

hmmm maybe i should start going to these things

9/9/2005 8:24:26 PM

Obviously you have to pay the normals to entice these guys to come out.

9/9/2005 8:26:29 PM

lol

9/9/2005 8:39:13 PM

[Edited on September 9, 2005 at 8:47 PM. Reason : nothing nice to say]

9/9/2005 8:41:06 PM

even if i had a chance with the cat girls...i wouldnt dress up....thats just....sad..

9/9/2005 9:19:21 PM

that one girl has relatively large breasts for someone so thin. but i agree with the conclusions on her, but still wouldnt bang her cuz she'd prolly wanna RP while doing that too.

9/9/2005 9:32:16 PM

RP? Does that mean role play?

So long as I got to hit it, I wouldn't be opposed to doing a little bit of role playing. You gotta give to receive, so to speak.

9/9/2005 9:38:47 PM

9/11/2005 1:47:10 PM

^that girl is good looking

9/11/2005 2:37:51 PM

9/11/2005 6:36:28 PM

this guy always takes it
