I guess that means the number of cosplayers who actually look good is
dwindling, and the number of cosplayers who are scary (i.e. just to grab
attention) are increasing.
I know this. Two years ago, some friends of mine manning a booth (we're an RPG
gamer group) at the Philippine C3 convention (comic and animation) had to -
BODILY- remove a fat, short, ugly guy cosplaying as Genjo Sanzou or whoever it
is from a bishounen anime--was trying to use it as an excuse to steal the
girlfriend of one of my friends. That and he just wouldn't leave our booth
(thus scaring away potential applicants).
I guess that's what scares me the most--some peopel actually cosplay because
they think they can pick up girls (or guys) dressed up as a bishounen or
bishoujo character they look nothing like.
