    She really loves the sound of her own voice. Aside from that, she's a brilliant costumer.

    15:50 - Very sweet of his parents to do, but one thing... It's not Japanese themed. Those dragons are most definitely Chinese.

      Also, the name is spelled wrong... ^^; The proper writing of Vladmir is "ウラジミール," not ヴゥラディミル." That's almost unpronouncable...

    There are alot of people out there who have no clue what 'anime' is. Up til 7yrs back I had no clue, til my son who was into anime n manga shows showed me. lol It all depends on the world they are in as to if they know this type of fun exists. I'd find it absolutely fun to stumble on a convention, where as a art lover, I see cosplay as a walking breathing form of art given life.

    Good documentary! My only thing is just that everything was anime. .....I'm a cosplayer and I dont necessarily like anime! Haha. To each their own! I think it would have been good to show maybe that variety of how anything and everything can and is cosplayed! But really, I did enjoy it. And yes......coming to a convention does feel like your coming home!

    • @LoneWolfZakuro14
      @LoneWolfZakuro14 10 ปีที่แล้ว

      Cosplay's origin is Japan and anime. The word's origin is Japan and anime. If anything, the word is now borrowed by the US for American properties.

    • @rtasi2000
      @rtasi2000 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      The name cosplay was coined by a Japanese (takahashi) but the modern day cosplay conventions originate from the US sci fi conventions of the early 19th century known at the time as just costuming. Look up the first world con which was held in new York around 1939. You'll find the first modern cosplay couple there (Forrest ackerman and myrtle Douglas),which later caught on and inspired the cosplay movement in Japan and around the globe.interestingly,the awesome Japanese reporter (takahashi) that coined the now famous word "cosplay" was attending a convention in Los Angeles when he came up with the word.he was so taken aback by western convention and it's costume masquerades that he invented the word to suit what he was witnessing.cos = costume and play = performance hence cosplay

    • @LoneWolfZakuro14
      @LoneWolfZakuro14 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      ないないない It's from コスプレ (kosupure or cosplay) The modern cosplay is absolutely from Japanese culture. Anyway.

    • @rtasi2000
      @rtasi2000 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      Iris in a Bottle to each their own.figured I'd just add my two cents. As much as I like the cosplay community and Japanese culture, the origins of cosplay are documented like I roughly stated up top despite your disagreements. I suggest looking up the history of cosplay here on TH-cam or on google.good day miss :) 

    • @cassidyleonards2411
      @cassidyleonards2411 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      Iris in a Bottle "Modern" cosplay? So there's "ancient" cosplay? The notion that cosplay started in Japan is a misconception. There are tons of academic articles readily available online that contradict this belief and point to the origins of cosplay as stated by R. Tasi. As they said, the term was coined by a Japanese journalist. The term is Japanese in origin but not the practice.

    I enjoyed this film very much. I identified with Sue and Vlad and Featherweight, plus, at different phases of my life. I started costuming at cons in 1976 and after coming in first at a couple around 90 I dropped out, but this film is beginning to rekindle my interest. Thank you for making it, LOVE the People and Very Well Made. It was so accessible and normal, not talking heads or lecturing, just immersive "fly on the wall". Congratulations, I'll link to it on FB community.

  • @Silentbobclone76
    @Silentbobclone76 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Tell me about it. I don't think it took me any less than two hours to get from one end of the building to the other. That's like a 3min walk, max. 2hrs....craziness. But so much fun.

    US watcher here, now that the first episode of "Heroes of Cosplay" has aired in the US, I want to thank you for making this documentary, which really does the hard work of communicating the human-side of the hobby. Again, thank you for giving these cosplayers a voice.
