To all you people body shaming, race critics, and everyone who makes fun of a cosplayer

Please

Go to a corner

And stay there.

Cosplay is rant #5

Why am I bringing a dress up rant in an art book?

Because im the one writing it, im the one EXPRESSING my feelings.

So, lets begin.

First lets start with the type of hate

One of the biggest ones is body shaming

Body shaming is basing the persons cosplay on not the outfit, but their body. Which really hurts.

Like, your to flat to cospay Takio. Your too chubby to cosplay Lucy. Your too short to cosplay Erwin. Like what the hell is wrong with you. We are here to have FUN. Fun is like a joke in the community

Listen. I have cosplayed Dante and Aaron from mystreet. Is my body accurate? NO. I literally had to wear a skin tone boob top that matches my chest so it could look more like a guy.

For all you flat chest who want to cospay as like Lucy, Erza, or any anime character, DO IT. I always say flat is a good way to do a GUY COSPLAY. THATS LIKE COOL TOO! You can be Rin, Haruko, Tomoya, EVEN TOMOYO. Tomoyo is a tomboy from clannad, and really hot headed lmao. Nagisa is another good cosplay!

Even girls mistake me as guys, when I am a D. Like I laugh and say "im a girl" and they're like "OMG IM SO SORRY" But I rub it off

Next is race critics.

Okay I went to MegaCon and there was a black Natsu.

What did I do?

I WENT UP THEIR AND BEGGED FOR A PICTURE HAHA. I would do that with ANY NATSU COSPLAYER NATSU IS MY HUSBAND ALSO UTA AND BEERUS I LOVE ALL OF THEM I AM A FURRY BEERUS IS MY BOO KITTY

I love his cosplay, hes amazing and so sweet and he actually does sound like Natsu in the japanese dub ;OOOO;
I dont care if you're not asian to cosplay Mikasa, I dont care if you're asian and cosplaying Goku.

LIKE THE ONLY THING I CARE ABOUT IS YOU GUYS HAVING FUN

HAVE FUN! Enjoy your convention, enjoy YOURSELF!

And dont go shaming really good cosplayers.

If they got their outfit from Ebay and you actually took time to make a homemade ones, which is better?

NEITHER BECAUSE YOUR BOTH REALLY GOOD COSPLAYERS

YOU DONT NEED TO BE REALLY TAN TO COSPAY SKY

YOU DONT NEED TO HAVE BLACK HAIR TO COSPLAY TAXEY

YOU DONT NEED TO BE WHITE TO COSPLAY BARNEY

JUST HAVE FUN!

Your cosplay matters, everyones cosplay matters. I care that you're enjoying yourself, that you're having fun.

Dont go hating like

Oh that girl has the perfect body for Erza, but yet she cosplays as Uta? Eww
I know write, and that skinny noodle would be perfect for Bulma!

Stop right there fam.

THATS ANOTHER EXAMPLE OF BODY SHAMING

MHMM

Like I am a pirate maids, and most maid cospays are really skinny asians.

Lol im very chubby, tan and hispanic

FITE ME

Jkjk pls dont

Like I weigh more than my mom, brother and older brother, yet I can still coplay as ANYONE

True fact I want to cosplay as Taxey and carry around a Swifter Sweeper next year mhm

Just be talking to the sweeper like "aye bab u need anything?"
