The Cosplay subculture, has a strong sense of community. Cosplaying can be looked as a hobby or a lifestyle and it has become popular in today’s society. Blood sweat and tears are spent creating these costumes, in order for individuals to participate in events that allow them to embody their favorite characters. I thought cosplay was the same as dressing up like for Halloween. But for those who practice the art, cosplay is more than that– it is fully immersing oneself as a character and performing in front of hundreds of fans. There is a sense of unity, and it’s thrilling to see another person’s cosplay. Ultimately, what all cosplayers have in common is that it requires time and dedication but in the end, it has rewarding results. It’s an opportunity to represent a fandom, and can be practiced by anyone who’s willing to learn.
