It takes a lot of courage to wear one of those costumes and show it to the world. On top of that, one has to be very creative in making those costumes look good on him or her, Cosplay is a healthy art, a healthy performance art, in fact. It has no gender and age bias, although participants are mostly youths. Still this is very much a misunderstood culture in our society and we need to correct this misconception, which is one of the reasons why the Ministry is supporting this activity.

- Minister Datuk Siringan Gubat from: http://www.dailyexpress.com.my/news.cfm?NewsID=87447 Always great to see cosplay getting some good press and this article is full of positive quotes!  (via cosplaytutorial)

The thing I love most about con weekends is the fact that everyone who enjoys the same pop culture can basically live together for a few days. You’re completely surrounded by talented, sweet, funny, and awesome people. Whenever I walk into a con, I feel at ease. I also love all the cosplayers. This weekend I overheard some people saying how “these people…they’re still kids…they like to dress up in costumes and watch cartoons.” Although this might be a blunt way to say it, its true. But that person had no idea how much work goes into those ‘costumes’ or how deep some of those ‘cartoons’ touch some fans. This culture has so much to offer on levels I cannot explain. Its just something that happens. For three days, you can be whichever character you want to be, put in hours and hundreds of dollars on your costume, and practice your theatrics. You literally see these ‘cartoons’ come to life. It takes a lot of work to be an otaku, but in the end its all about being fun and happy and that’s what makes me truly happy about being able to go to cons and experience. NekoCon, it was an awesome weekend! Thank you!
