I'm disabled and every con I get a special sticker which states I and my immediate party are allowed to go with me through exits like their entrances, because the con is so big I get trampled following the crowd. Actually was pushed over a few times, and they implemented this so those in wheelchairs or on crutches etc could avoid it.
I had a security member put his hands on me, I weigh 120 soaking wet, and use crutches. He manhandled me and told me he didnt care if I was disabled or not, it wasnt allowed, when con staff strictly gave me the okay.
I contacted the disability director and they got the dude fired on the spot.
The security director apologized and made a call out on the radio reminding his staff you're not supposed to directly touch the congoers, ESPECIALLY if they have crutches etc, because you could hurt them and the company would be responsible.
Idiots.
I'm so sorry for you about the security guy
That is pretty terrible not gonna lie I do feel bad for you I also have a disability but one thing that keeps me happy is knowing that Geico can save you 15% or more on your next purchase but seriously good thing he got in trouble
It always amazes me how stupid people can get (like what did he think he was gonna achieve) but then I remember that some probably just get delusional when they get some power.
wow those stories make me so angry, glad you got some justice
Eeshhh
Most of these aren't just "creepy" or "uncomfortable," they're downright crimes.
Yea
Awww c'mon whats a little sexual assault among friends. Geeze you're no fun
@@amberriche30 It's only fun if it's _among friends._ Not strangers at a convention....
@@YayaFeiLong he was definitely being sarcastic
@@wolfboy20 Yeppers plus I'm a chick lol
Oh god I laughed so hard at the part where the dude was letting people think he was a girl and let them upskirt photos
Though it could backfire, they might be into that o.o
@@mitchverr9330 Yeah, tho maybe he was into getitng lewd pictures of him.
but it highlights one of the difference between being a boy and a girl, and why we have such hard time understanding each others problems.
Because things just aren't the same
I remember a video of this asian maid, guy with camera says do something. She lifts skirt up from back. Guy giggles says thank you. Maid says "you're welcome bro". Male voice. Camera guy didn't expect it. Hilarious
@@misterl1668 I wanna do that lmao
@@misterl1668 yep
7:48 "kid nearly lost a finger that day."
Kid SHOULD'VE lost an arm that day.
The real Temari would've taken off his head.
@@user-sw1qw9yi5e well that escalated...
Why can’t others realize cosplayers are people too? Just because they’re wearing a costume, it does not mean it’s OK to grab/stalk them without permission.
People need to be reminded of this. They see a character they like and forget that it's still a total stranger and they need to respect their boundaries.
Yeah, and me being a cosplayer, I hate it when people hit on me and stuffs. Just because I’m Asian and a cosplayer, I’m not going to give consent. I was dressed as Toga Himiko, and all I felt was a hand grab my ass.
I never hit someone as hard as I did. I knocked him out, and he was kicked out by security.

@@eraqus4504 I'm so glad security sided with you, in other stories they say they get in trouble, and that the creeper usually doesn't.
Carnivorous Turtle I’m very glad, as well. They did give me a warning, however, since I did unsheathe my “knife” on him in reflex. But I hit him instead since I didn’t want to break my knife, I worked so hard on it and it looked so good ;-:
But no one else touched me, after that. My friend who went along with me watched very closely, and any other creepers who tried to hit on me or something like that- we made sure we had a plan. Our plan was to act like girlfriends, and she’d take my hand or show dominance. We’re like, super fucking close friends, so she understood every look or movement I’d make. If I touched her shoulder, there was someone behind us. Her hand was squeezed, I needed her to put up the “girlfriend” ruse again. Wrist? We need to get closer to my mom.
Thankfully, mom told us we could go back to the hotel room in the middle of the day. I needed to update my TikTok with the videos I had taken, anyway.
I think it'd be hilarious to cosplay as a "White Knight" and dress in literally a white full suit of armor, then stalk the stalkers. As soon as you see something inappropriate like this, you make a huge scene of striding valiantly over there and going, "HALT, THOU PERVASIVE FIEND! Begone from yonder maiden! Thine vile heart be greasier than the beard on thine foul neck!" and goofy callouts like that until they awkwardly leave. You then have to make sure you leave the scene as well, and don't even talk to the victims (unless they talk to you first), or else you're just a creeper too.
this would be awesome if a centre got the security guys to do this, it would just be fun to watch
@@thetakengamer4256 I'm sure some of the cons would happily accept White Knights of Virtue at their establishments.
That's one way to earn a free beer
Thats a great idea hahaha
mrchuckmorris Someone please do this.
A shirtless magikarp followed me around for a good ten minutes silently before leaving and searching for his next target. I would like to add that the magikarp was ripped
I’m sorry this happened to you but I burst out laughing thinking of a ripped shirtless magikarp following people around.
To capture the eyes of a sex symbol that's kinda impressive
Magikarp used Stalk.
@@A_Person167-8 With that body i would be the one stalking him.
He probably did that because you made fun of his weaker brother.
I did a black widow cosplay a while back. A man dressed as Naruto (if Naruto had subpar facial hair and pre-diabetes) walked up to me, grabbed my hand to kiss it. When I batted him away he unzipped my jumpsuit down to the bellybutton.
I chinstruck a man that day. Natasha would have been proud.
Such an asshole
That is so disgusting. I'm so glad you did that. I give you my upmost respect.
Sounds like it was the worst and best day ever there, at least you had something on underneath or it would've been embarrassing and awkward
@@ghettonoodlez7457 It really is
Surprised you stopped at a chin strike.

@@theangrypotato3750 boi I wanted to say that!
My ex is a 4'10 Asian girl. She'd get creeps pretty easily when I wasn't around. And we'd be asked to get stopped for photos (only when we did a couples cosplay), but they rarely asked for photos when I was with her.
But when she was alone. Oh boy. The creeps would fly at her like Zubat in a cave towards a trainer.
awwwwwe i feel bad for you and your friend but i cant stop laughing from how you described it XD XD
Late to the party, but I have the same issue with my girlfriend. There have been a couple of times where it's been... dire.. to say the least. From a guy that grabbed her hand by force proclaiming her to be his girl to a guy straight up wanting to molest her at a busstop(she got out without harm because of a friend luckily). We've been together for over 10 years and this still happens. Last I remember was a couple of months back. She was waiting on me at a train station when some dude tried to talk her up. When I arrived I saw him eyeing me nervously and when he heard about me being her boyfriend he just bailed. I thought it was one of her classmates, given how he was acting around her, but he wasn't.
Remember kids, cosplay does not equal consent 😌😌😌
What is your profile picture?

_peachiiipop_ WHAT YOU MEAN TO TELL ME THAT TOUCHING PEOPLE INAPPROPRIATELY ISNT ALLOWED???????????? (please note this is sarcasm)
@@Cera_01 I don't know what this means should I be concerned lol
I bet the dude with the Mario cosplay looking at the Wario dude was just sticking to character or something since Wario is kind of Mario's rival. More like frienenemy. That sounds funny AF tbh lol.
J-Brazen thx for explaining
Something similar happened to my friend who did a kylo ren cosplay with an fx scar across her face, getting looks from some random jedi. It was hilarious.
In 2013 right after DmC came out I went to AMA as Reboot Dante, ran into a DMC3 Dante and he screams across the the parking lot
“LOOK AT THIS FUCKING ASSHOLE”
The guy was the spitting image so I asked for a group pic and we did a couple poses afterwards he thanked me for being so cool and complimented my jacket
TLDR: Sometimes people just get excited when someone matches them
Asian girl cosplayers get it the worst! Not only do they get the worst weeboos they get the guys who think Asian girls are these sweet/submissive types of women...instead of seeing them as people...
Not all asians are cute. It's primarily the snow white-skinned, small eye, thin gals. I mean, not tryna be rude, but what would you find cuter? A japanese/korean schoolgirl cosplay, or a filipino/indian schoolgirl cosplay?
@@CosmoniYT You missed the enter point of my post.
@@SoniaSephia I didn't I'm talking about what they see in japanese/korean gals, as opposed to other asians which is kinda unfair. Do you think indians and filipinos aren't asians or something? Is that the misunderstanding here?
@@CosmoniYT you absolutely did LOL
Instead of you guys jumping to conclusions about what I said, let me explain it for you before you attack me for having a conversation. Galaxy said that Asian cosplayers "get it the worst". They then continued to state that they get treated unfairly instead of like normal, hinting at racism at cons.
I replied by stating that to those unfair people, they don't always find every asian race "cute". They usually find japanese/korean women cute, as that's the typical anime-girl, cutesy race. Saying that isn't racist, it's the truth. If somebody's being racist here, it would honestly be Galaxy for the assumption of asian women. Asian doesn't just mean japanese or korean. I stated that, by telling her that usually those weeboos and men only find japanese/koreans cute, not the other parts of Asia, ex. Filipino, Indian, etc. I know that, my mother is Filipino and honestly she'd look uncute in a little schoolgirl outfit. After I say that, Galaxy tells me I missed the point. But instead of being helpful, teling me I missed it, and then WHAT I MISSED. They just throw that comment at me, which is rude, and almost an attack like saying "You're dumb". Trying to understand what I missed, I ask where we might have been thinking differently. What do I get back? An attack. That's just immature. If you don't want to have a mature conversation about this, fine. But if that's what you want, I hope I don't get any notifications from this thread from either of you after this.

At my first con rave, when I was 16, this guy came in drunk, grabbed me and my friend's butts, then picked up another girl. We got security, and they carried him out. The next day, when I was doing badge checking, he gave me the stink eye everytime I saw him. Not my fault he decided to be an ass and assault 3 strangers, two of them being underaged.
Friendly pro tip if anyone is unsure about where to put your hands with a cosplayer in a picture! Keanu Reeves does this sort of pose thing where he has his arms around the people in the photo but keeps his hands off, and sort of *jazzy hands* them so they don’t look awkward. Also! If you feel comfortable enough, ask the cosplayer to do peace signs, easy Jojo poses, thumbs up, and so on with you! I feel like if we start making stuff like that more normal we may get a couple less stories like this, the people I know personally that have been groped had it happen when a person took a photo with them and put their hand too low or too high around their waist. And if you are still comfortable with holding someone’s waist with a hand like is common, but the other person says no - chances are it’s nothing personal! It’s just their comfort level!
I’m lucky that so far I haven’t dealt with any creeps, but my *weirdest* situation happened when Doug Cockle (voice of Geralt from the Witcher series) saw me in a hotel lobby while I was dressed as a maid version of Guy Fieri and reacted about as you’d expect, so take that as you will. That was memorable.
That won't do, that's like teaching rapists not to rape.
The guy who grope girls don't do it because they don't know any better, they want to touch someone dressed as their waifu. They're crap who deserve to at least get kicked out of the con.
I can assure you that if a guy touches a girl by accident, he'll immediately apologize, as a normal guy would respect cosplayers, even more if they want a photo with them.
Burn Angel I fully agree, and whenever I’m at a con one of my top priorities is keeping an eye out for people who are clearly made uncomfortable by someone. But I know there’s a current climate where some people are worried about touching people, even in friendly photos, so I made the suggestions in hopes that maybe those who read it who might be nervous have an idea of what to do in those situations, or the cosplayers who don’t want to be touched. But you are definitely right - creeps don’t give a fuck about what is good or bad, they have motives that make them shirk common decency, and I hope to god more people start to out those fuckers loudly!
@@redmasquerade13 ah, the good ol' hover hands. People with low self esteem have been using them for decades.
If i would bother a cosplayer for a pick, it would be for a cool pose related to the character.
Did this once with a tall mofo dressed as Darth Vader, took a pick of him choking my throat like i was trying to hide the Death Star plans
Fun times
I had fun doing pictures with other BNHA cosplayers, I did one with an Ochaco (I was dressed as Toga) who decided she would pose like she was being stabbed. That was a fun shoot.
I was dressed at a small convention and there was this giant neck beard who approached me and told me corny jokes, getting offended when I didn't laugh because "you're supposed to love these kinds of jokes!"
Cosplayers are not actually their characters, guys
Went as Mercy and had a guy ask me if I could give him healing back at his hotel room.
no
haha
Hey, he did it with style and I'm pretty sure he wasn't going full seriously. I think he just thought of that line and just wanted to know your reaction lol
I might’ve said yes if he was cosplaying Waluigi.
@@ravioliravioli4486 WAH-nderful
Ravioli Ravioli nice name
I cosplayed as a girl, and pushing my beefy (not fat, but not muscular) pectorals together, made fairly convincing cleavage, and I almost got grabbed by some neckbeard (keep in mind, he was wearing a Spider-Man shirt, so I shouted in the best Willem Defoe voice I could muster “Peter! Stop, it’s me!” And he got a little mad
Hilarious. Keep being amazing 😂
My first cosplay was Len when I was 15 ish had a Kaito cosplay come up, pick me up. Kiss me and run away. ...My first kiss was sexual assualt.
That sounds awful. AND STRAIGHT UP WRONG WTF
Ohh nooo, that's fucking disturbing
YIKES. at least it stopped there and didn't become anything worse.
@@MrMoofisAwesome No that's the Rin incident
@@SirSaintRipper oof, true. Not gonna lie, I always mix the two up.
10:07 - I have a similar story. Way back in 2005, my buddies went to a video game convention outside of Philadelphia. My good kemosabe Mike decided to cosplay as a decaying zombie Santa Claus, in order to promote his indie horror movies to random people. Mind you, were were both just attendees and not vendors. After going inside and walking around for a few minutes, one of the staff members grabbed the both of us and gave Mike a big lecture about how his zombie Santa makeup was too gruesome and offensive, and that it would shock people. They told him to remove the costume or else we'd both be kicked out, since they claimed this was a "family event", and that it was sponsored by a major TV network. A security guard forced him to go to into a men's room and wash off his makeup. He kept the Santa suit, but removed most of the zombie makeup: this unfortunately wasn't enough for the bald asshole security guard, so he demanded he go back and remove all of the makeup. Eventually Mike was left just wearing a Santa suit, with no blood or guts - and just his regular face without the slightest bit of blood, and even the fake dark circles under his eyes were forced to be wiped off.
Throughout the rest of the convention, that bald asshole security guard kept following us around and giving us dirty looks while his arms were folded. Meanwhile, several other cosplayers showed up and wandered around: scantily-clad women in semi-nude goth outfits, and in some cases bloody makeup (I'm assuming they were various "sexy" versions of Silent Hill and Resident Evil characters). Did the staff members hassle them? Of course not. 14 years later and this still pisses us off.
That sucks
That is extremely unfair...
Why would a video game convention be considered a family event? I'm not even a gamer and I get why that's extremely dumb
Hope that subhuman gets skinned while being conscious
That’s such a horrible thing to do, especially since he probably put a lot of time and effort into the special effect makeup. Unfortunately it seems security is a bit biased when it comes to cosplay :(
I just remembered a time when I was around 15 and had a thing for cosplays and that was the reason why I dressed up as jyushimatsu in a grand manga event in where I live.
So, the thing is, that while I was walking down the corridors, a girl came up to me from behind and hugged me because jyushimatsu was her favourite character. It was super sweet but I’m aware that some people could freak out to this XDD
so this is what the prophecy foretold, the era of peace ends as the neckbeards leave their holes to bring chaos to the outside world
pssst, hey accelerator...who would win in a fight: you or saitama?
I still won't get over the story of the neckbeard who roofied a guy just to try and get with the guy's girlfriend
Accelerator now you see why we have traps

Was cosplaying Byakuya Togami from Danganronpa at a convention in May. I was heading to go meet a group of friends when this Toko Fukawa cosplayer started chasing me, and I pretended to do the same "fake-run" as the Crona cosplayer in this video. Toko cosplayer didn't take the hint and ended up following me for 10 minutes and when I finally met up with my friends, she caught up to me, took a picture, and bolted.
I know it's not the worst thing to happen, but having ANYONE take pictures of you without your consent is.. creepy.
Man, she's Toko, you're Togami, that's some next level roleplay
Oof, creepy but her character was on point
That must have been weird
I cosplayed Chihiro when I was like 15 and some guy was looking up my skirt, my buddy caught him in the act and his excuse was "I wanted to see if you were a real trap". Danganronpa character cosplays have got it bad.
Mike Alcer Is Togani your favorite character?
Oh man, I can finally find a place to tell this story.
When I was 16, I went to delta H con, a really small con in my area, and cosplayed the me!me!me! girl when it was at it's hype. I was walking with my friend and this 40 year old asian guy cosplaying ness stopped us to ask for a photo. No big deal, I was ready to pose and my friend moved out the way. He ask if I can go down the hall to take "better photos" even though the lighting was awful there but I'm like "sure why not". I go there while my friend is watching from a distance and he says to me "you look tired from your heels, why don't you take them off and sit down?" I was a bit weirded out but I just went with it, trying to get it over with. I sat on the ground and tried making my face look cute. The fucker goes ahead and takes my thigh highs off, goes up close to my feet, nabs photos and books it so quick that I didn't even have time to react. My friend witnessed the entire thing from the corner and I'm sitting on the ground with my bare feet out thinking "what the fuck just happened?"
Never saw him again. To this day, anytime I see a Ness cosplayer I internally scream and try my best not to freak out. Fun times.
Sorry you had to go through that m8.
Just “40-year-old Ness cosplayer” itself made me cringe. That guy was cringe incarnate.
Footfetish.
Note to self, don’t take off shoes at my next con. Jeebus that sounds awful, hope you still enjoyed the rest of your con.
Wow lol
Right now I’m working on a Karen (let me speak to your manager/soccer mom/hunbot) cosplay.

The problem is that pretty much whatever you cosplay, mostly when you're a girl, you'll attract creeps. Internet or irl. That's why there are some characters I would love to cosplay but hold back from actually doing them.

About 10 years ago I was at Supanova in Brisbane cosplaying as Hunk from Resident Evil. I feel a tug at my pants and look down through my very foggy gas mask to see a little girl about 5 dressed as Princess Peach, who asked me if she can have a photo with me. I instinctively looked around for a parent and saw her mum looking at me with more than a little disdain as the little girl said "Mummy I wanna picture with the gas-mask man!" I indicated that I was ok with this but her mum looked about at the other less-survival horror-inspired cosplayers desperately.
"Oh, um.... look! There's a Mario! Don't you want to get a picture with a Mario instead?" she asked, or rather pleaded.
"NO I WANNA PHOTO WITH THE GAS MASK MAAAAAN!!!!" was the wailing response.
Knowing it to be a battle she couldn't win (I'd guess from experience) she sighed and held up the camera. I knelt down to make it easier to get us both in frame. Then I hear the little girl ask "Can I hold the gun?" I look at the mum, she gave a look back that implied I just do it to get this done faster. So I pass her the $2 Crazy Clarks plastic MP5.
In a move that'd make whatever martial arts teacher she undoubted sees proud, she shoves the gun under my chin and grabs my collar with enough force to knock me off balance enough that I have to go from a kneel to holding myself up on one arm while my other stuck out in front to counterbalance me.
And she pulls the trigger.

kinda turned off from going to conventions now. sounds like a bunch of nerdy creeps
Right! I'm only 17 but I used to want to go to convections when I was like 15 or something. Then I found out how fucking weird people are and how so many disturbing things so down in those places, without any consequences. So I was just like "yeah... I'll pass on that."
Honestly, there are creeps who get away with gross shit, everywhere. It's not just at cons, so you shouldn't let that deter you.
Try going to a bar. Just as bad, if not worse.
I've been to like 8 conventions and I've only ever had 2 bad experiences. In general they are a lot of fun
Been to going to come for over 4 years at this point and in my exp I’d say things like this are rare and it def shouldn’t sway you from going to one. Everyone who’s asked to take pics of my cosplays have been pretty cool in my exp as well
as a teen cosplayer, i feel lucky that most cons i go to are also mostly other teens and people are respectful
Same
teenage cosplayers are the best. me and my friends are young teens, me being the youngest. the final friend is currently converting into a weeb. wish us luck.
7:58 on behalf of all security that worked those years at Anime Detour, I apologize for not stopping 'The Dude' from being obviously creepy sooner than we did.
These are the comments I like to see - from the other side
Back then, when I was cosplaying Kanna Kamui from Ms. Kobayashi. Bc she was my favorite. And I loved how pink and cute she was. (i was 13) and some older dude yelled at me.Y'know the "ravioli ravioli" thing. It made me feel uncomfortable in my cosplay. But I'm still obviously a minor and I didnt need to hear that. I let my pops know it made me hella uncomfortable. Without a second thought my dad confronted them
Funny but not to a 13 year old

You wouldn't even notice these incidents in the crowd. These people only feel confident enough to do this because these are loud and crowded areas. They could easily get away quickly if needed. Plus, usually the person getting groped doesn't process what is happening in time.

I cosplayed Chihiro Fujisaki from Danganronpa (he is a boy who dresses like a girl) when I was like 15 and some guy was looking up my skirt, my buddy caught him in the act and his excuse was "I wanted to see if you were a real trap".
Wow just wow
That’s gross 🤢 ( I bet the Chihiro cosplay was good! )
My mind just went: *gasp* no
But seriously, I know this comment was two years ago, but I hope you’re doing well, darling!
Cross dressed as homura from modoka, I give myself the credit I looked like a girl but when I spoke you could definitely tell something was off, I had this guy constantly trying to hit on me through out the entire con, which if he were normal I would be okay with it, but he was way to touchy and feely, came to the point were he touched my ass like 2 or 3 times and I told him to piss off or I would have con ops on him for being a creep. Why are creeps like this always at cons. We used to have this guy we called creepy batman because he would stalks cute girls and follow them around until he got banned from our local conventions, thank God the man was like in his late 40 following around tweens and teens. That's just not okay.
Tbf Homura is #1 waifu. My Homura doesn't get much attention at all, but she's still my favorite to do.
Damn it, most people over there belong in jail.
I don't care if it's a joke or anime shenanigans. If you have the will to touch people without consent, you deserve violence.

2) Same con, got cornered by a fangirl and pinned to the wall for sexy pictures that I did not want!!
3) was 707 from mystic messenger for a school district comicon, another girl came up to me right before our class panel and gave me a huge kiss on the cheek (consensually) and I was smitten the whole night like she was cute.
4) my first con, I was Ciel from black butler; someone dressed like grell kept getting way too into character and being a jerk to me. Fuck that guy.
5) in middle school I was Misa Misa from Death Note and I was cornered by a couple of guys over my cosplay, my then-bf had to rescue me...
shit gal i hope you're ok
this didnt happen to me but i was there when it happened.
so i went to a con as Tatsumaki with 2 friends, one was her OC, and the other was Karkat. the karkats dad was supervising but he really liked the con stuff, too. (he mostly liked cowboy beebop and such) anyways, i got off topic.
the OC friend runs up to me and is like "bella! bella! theres a couple cosplaying Dipper and Bill Cipher and they kissed!!"(note, she practically screamed this)
i was like 'oh, thats cute' and then, then wave of fangirls...
this poor couple was bombarded byy BillDip fangirls asking for them to kiss for a picture, the OC friend being one of them. the couple look pretty uncomfortable and i kinda just gave them an 'im sorry' look.
As i crappy budget bill cipher, people always expect you to be waaaayyyy into character and that leads to uncomfortable situations. Well, not for me because i look like a pile of fabric, but for all the other bills i talked to. I felt super bad for them.
I lost a bet and had to crossdress/cosplay as hatsune miku, i had a slender build and was quite bishi I got followed by this freaky old man with a camera, poor girls who do this often
What the hell dose bishi mean?
I did a Gumi cosplay a few years back and an oldish guy took a photo of me without me knowing until I saw him put his camera down. ‘Twas scary.
Gumi Megpoid?
@@andybuscus383 Is there another Gumi?
@@PowerSpirit50 I would think there are many Gumis out there. The vocaloid, and a few anime characters out there.
@@andybuscus383 I just thought since Gumi was taken from Megumi.
One of my biggest cosplay fears.
At one con I was cosplaying Edward (from Fullmetal Alchemist).
Nothing wrong with that, but I'm female.
Going to the restroom was awkward.
Bro that's me but on a daily basis (it gets worse at things like cons because I have trouble finding female characters I like and would feel comfortable cosplaying)
i saw edward and immediately thought of cowboy bebop
When someone takes your water
Wait that's illegal
The waterniggas will decide your fate
And it wasn’t just any water, but crotch water. Girl gobbled on his bottle, without his consent.
Went to a con dressed as the 'MAGNET' version of Megurine Luka (Vocaloid) two months after I had my daughter. Was still breastfeeding and my partner had a lung infection so he stayed home. Went to the Con with the stroller, diaper bag and everything, intending to meet up with friends. Stayed in the lobby of the hotel for the most part, copious amounts of hand sanitizer and a plastic covering over the carseat/stroller to keep con crud away from my newborn. Went to a private portion of the lobby with a few couches, and started breastfeeding my daughter (even had a 'butterfly' blanket that matched my headset, so to maintain my modesty.
Had a guy show up and sit across from me while I was feeding my daughter. Kinda weird but whatever. I was covered up and we were discussing the cosplay. After about twenty minutes, I unlatch my daughter from her feeding, burp her, and put her back in her car seat where she proceeded to nap. I readjusted my cosplay to hide the straps of my maternity bra and the guy says "You have lovely breasts. I'm jealous of your daughter." and I look at him and ask "What do you mean jealous?" Bracing for a response I hoped wouldn't come. He mentions his breast milk fetish, and how if I had any left, whether I'd sell it to him, and that he'd pay extra to take it 'from the source.' I couldn't believe what I had just heard with my own two ears. I asked him if he would have said something like that to literally ANYONE ELSE in a setting outside of this, and told him he was a pig, and should be embarrassed of himself. Left in a hurry after that.
Haven't been to a convention since.
You brought your newborn to an anime con
Fucking yikes
Holy crap. I grimaced so hard I think I broke my face. That's appalling.
What. The. Fuck.
Jealous of your daughter? I'd knock the bastard out if I heard him say that
I plan on going to cons, someday, and I really hope no creepy stuff happens to me. :/
Some people are just plain sick.
Most conventions are save and very enjoyable.
The cons I’ve been to (and cosplayed at ) have been very fun and enjoyable! I would highly recommend going to one, but if your really nervous about that stuff, being in a group of friends or even just having one friend wig you will most likely lessen the chances of that happening. All in all, highly recommend going to a con!
M D Yeah, being in crowds tends to make me very uncomfortable, so going with a friend sounds like a great idea... ^.^
Cons are fun, but creeps suck! Tips to get away from creeps at cons if they dont go away:
1. Make eye contact with anyone, groups too, and say 'hey guys you're here' and leave with them. They wont push you away. Stay with them until your far away from the creep.
2. Go to the dealers hall. If its a big/medium con, dealers halls are ypur great escape. Get lost in the crowd and walk fast.
3. Find con staff/ security. They will take care of the creep for you.
4. Ignore them completely. Hopefully, they get the hint.
5. If they lay a hand on you, SCREAM LOUD. Get attention! Trust me, con goers in the vicinity will come to the rescue. Say things like 'I dont know this person', or 'I need help' and get out of there.
Convention's are really fun places to be and seeing cosplay is really something special, it sucks that people are like this, so hopefully this stuff helps anyone who feels unsafe.
2 types of people at conventions:
- Cool cosplayers/fans/geeks
- Creepy ass dudes
"creepy ass dudes"
Punching bags*
My friend was being hit on... She was 14... I'm amazed how there aren't more scandalous incidents about assaults in conventions. Lol
2:06 I laughed so hard at this.
Idk why but I just imagine an averagely skinny guy dressed as Wario chatting with friends with beer in his hands as he tries not to pay attention to some guy dressed as Mario death staring him.
@@shinobix4925 I pictured a chubby guy doing more or less the same but getting slightly nervous whenever he remembered "Mario" was death glaring him lol.
Too bad it wasn't Luigi. Would have fit the meme. xD

So this was my first convention, and i was dressed up as midoriya( my hero academia) and so far i had a good experience, until I noticed these two cosplayers ( looked like around my age which was 12 at the time) shouting at other cosplayers (who they didn't knew) and one of them had a 'dog collar' which the other lead them by. Needless to say i was scarred for life.
13:01 His shields were down, he just has to wait for them to recharge and then engage the enemy to retrieve his crotch water.
My partner and I mainly do full plate armored cosplay, and even we get creeps times to time, asking for hugs (umm...hugging a full plate armor?)
or asking us to do face reveal, sometimes they just follow us around, I definitly enjoy the ones that are genuinely loving the game that we are cosplaying in (especially Dark Souls) but some just....stalks you. follows you. ever watching.
I just think that they are shy and want to just be there to chill, but it's even worst when I talk to them and they flee.
That and the annual protester about cosplay is a sin at Anime North (In Ontario, Canada)
Anywho. odd times. But Cosplay is a great hobby in general, loving it and will never stop :D We..umm... just think 'creeps' are misunderstood nice shy people.
You can find our work on Instagram or facebook if you are curious.
In Toulouse in a gaming con i saw a guy in a Jack Sparrow cosplay completely nailed to a t and he topped it with an amazing impression of the character -the walk, the voice of Depp's french dub.
I was amazed.
And that awesome dude popped up in a conference that was held at this event for a small skit and everyone got a good laugh of that more than real Black Pearl captain doing shenanighans
Dressed up as Astolfo...
The guy thought I was a girl.
The look on their face after trying to take an upskirt was priceless.
You got lucky, some guys would like it more that way.
Why aren't people cosplaying the greatest anime character, Pink Guy?
All hail papa franku
I was cosplaying as Ciel from Black Butler. I was with my friend who was cosplaying as Uraraka from MHA. While she was away to get some MilkTea, i was alone. Out of nowhere somebody screamed “Hey Ciel! Where’s your Sebastian?” That guy was cosplaying as Sebastian and tried to take me away from my friend that day.
Honestly, nothing creepy really. Might be due to culture (people are generally respectful of other people's space), everyone always asks if they can hug the "free hugs" people and so on.
Once cosplaying a character I met a woman who had the biggest crush on my character. She was too embarrassed and shy to come to me, so I opened my arms and showed her to come forward to hug me, and she ran to me and jumped and clinged onto my neck so tightly as she blabbered how she cried when my character died etc. It was just cute and I felt happy I had made someone's day.
Tiia Mannix which character?
Ashley Donnelly Well, spoilers I guess.
Dark Walter from Hellsing.
Last year I was dressed as Angie Yonaga from Danganronpa. A Monokuma cosplayer ran up behind me and hit me in the head with their hammer and then tried to look up my skirt.
Someone ran up to me hugging me and screaming "have 23 kids with me that all of them are like you!"
The cosplay community is scary to say the least
If someone tried to be perverted when I'm in cosplay, I'd scream so load that the security would hear me.
Also I'd kick the person.
You kick him in the head I will go for the crotch.
Jesus christ what is wrong with humanity
Isolation and Porn
these incidents arent anywhere near as common as is made out, and its usually just socially inept/mal-adjusted introverts who dont understand what they are doing is inappropriate.
Bro, I feel bad for cosplayers who have to go through this

Thats legit the reason I clicked on this video

Unnecessary.
I did Bishoman from Noragami when I was like 14 or 15 which is a very showy outfit but a prime example of clothing of anykind isnot consent because she is one of the most badass anime women I know and one of only like 3 females I cosplay cause dysphoria and general body image issues. This outfit though my confidence skyrockets and I can even act like Bishoman so its still one of my favorites and a go to "Last Day of Con and I Want to Dress Up but Dont Want Effort" cosplay. The reason I mention this particular cosplay is that when I first wore it at 14 or 15, I had been fully expecting quite a few creeps cause people dont seem to understand that showy clothes do not mean a person is asking for it even outside of a con setting and I chose her weapon thats the easiest to make which is a whip cause I had like a week to make it. To my surprise and delight people had actually been really chill and polite and the worst it had gotten was a few people who were afraid of seeming creepy given my age and outfit but thought it was well done so they came across as really awkward and some people's awkward comes across as creepy but we've all been there. Well I was doing one of these pictures with a photographer I actually follow online when I felt someone trying to peek under my skirt. Jokes on him, I Always have a prop for a reason and I know how to use a whip so whilr staying in pose snapped the whip back right across the creep's face effectively making him stop and the photographer went with me to report it cause he had switched to action shots when he noticed the guy but that I seemed unphased so figured I had it handled but wanted me to have evidence just incase. Found out the creep guy was in his late 40s so 3X my age and I was a minor.

Its all fun and games till somebody bouta beat you with a Paddle
Im just glad those paddles are banned
Ive had terrible experiences cosplaying at cons:
During my first con (12 yrs old) i was L and groped by 2 Misas who were trying to "find out" what gender I really was.
13 yrs old, I kept getting glomped by girls while in a lolita cosplay and had a photographer offer me a "private shoot"
Dressed as chibitalia (14)and fell asleep in the arcade waiting for my sister to redo her makeup. I woke up to find a guy "resting" his hand on my calf/up my skirt
15 yrs old and I had my, moderately conservative gothic lolita, picture end up on a hentai site
Bonus: 16 yrs old and I had to fight a dude off who was trying to separate me from my group for a pic when i wasnt even in cosplay
Im much older now but it hasnt gotten any better. Be careful out there.
Once when I was dressed as lapis someone tried to untie the back of the shirt. I slapped them
i used to hang out with a semi-famous (in that fandom circle, i guess) cosplay couple. because who they cosplayed were the Hot Thing at the time, they had a group of teenage girls following them everywhere, which was fine until they started moaning "OHHH DADDY~" to them.. in the middle of the convention hall. i'm the only one that had issue with it. haven't hung out with them since then
I was cosplaying as England once and my sister was cosplaying as Prussia. We ended up meeting some really good friends but there was one girl who kept clinging to the group, and specifically, me. I was quite soft-spoken so I just respectfully declined to playing the pocky game (a game of two people eating each end of a pocky stick and ending in a kiss if the stick isn't broken), she didn't ask me again but kept trying to hold my hand and saying how she wanted to be alone with me and I kept trying to separate myself from her but she continued to follow us after some of the other friends told her to back off.
"Creepiest " thing that happened to me in cosplay was people that actually guessed my character right.
So many stalkers in my country, and most of them usually stalk girls who cosplay as their favorite character (or waifu). Thankfully I mostly do crossdress lol. But there's one time I get pissed at one guy, he kept calling me by my real FULL name during one con for no reason. I don't have any problem with friends using my real name, but this guy is basically a stranger to me and well known stalker.

*excuse me what*
The best no u in existence
The guy wearing a skirt is a legend
That's not Cosplay, that's Crossplay.
*IMPLYING THAT DOESN'T MAKE IT BETTER.*

I dream of cosplaying some day and going to a comic con it seems fun but I feel nervous about all the rear grabbing stories •~•
Well, theres a gud and a bad with anything really. Go and do wut makes u happy. Dont let sum stories of creeps deter u from enjoying yourself
Comic con is really safe! In all the time i've cosplayed nothing even close to these stories has ever happend to me :3
Me too! I Cosplay even though it sucks and I really wanna go to con once I get Chiaki Nanami and Maki Haruwaka
But both of the skirts are pretty short and there are lots of pervs (and I'm like 10)
went as Korekiyo Shinguji, people started asking me stuff like “where’s sister” or “what do you know about anthropology” or just yelling SISTER at me from across the con, ngl i kind of went along with it, it was fun. they also started talking about red ropes and tying people up, in a kinky way (probably because of his love hotel event thingy). i was 14. bruh.
Ok, I have a story:
I went to Taiyou Con in Phoenix this past year, and it was my first convention ever. My friends and I all decided to do Soul Eater together for one of the days, which was actually really popular. We were stopped countless times for pictures, and I was having an amazing time. There was a get together for Soul Eater happening later that day, and we decided to stop by to take pictures with other people who were also dressed as Soul Eater characters.
Now, I was dressed as Crona and my best friend was dressed as Death the Kid. I got a request from another Death the Kid to take a picture with her (I'm also female), and I said yes. What she didn't tell me was that the picture was one of those OTP photos where the characters are supposed to make out. Pretty soon, she's leaning in, eyes half closed and lips puckered as she wraps her arms around me. I massively hesitate and flinch away (I also somehow manage to stay in character) but she doesn't take the hint. My BFF (who does NOT approve of the Crona/Kid ship) steps in and pushes her arms directly in between us and practically wreches us away from each other. I'm sure it made for a hilarious photo l, having two Kids and a Crona, but it terrified me because it was my first convention ever and I didn't expect people to behave like that.
Anyway, thank you to those who read all the way through this. All I can say now is stay safe and respect people's boundaries. Always ask for permission and consent at conventions.
I'm going to Taiyou Con this year! how was it?
I was twelve when I went to my first convention, and I might've come off as a bit creepy then. I was cosplaying as Maka Albarn and I saw a Crona cosplayer as I was coming down some stairs. I yelled, "Crona" and they were really confused for a moment and I asked for a hug and Idk they just seemed really weirded out while they awkwardly hugged me. I still feel pretty bad about it even though is was quite a few years ago.
This isn’t really creepy but once me, my aunt and my uncle were waiting in line at the concessions at a comic con. While we were waiting, some guy started talking to my aunt. My aunt was dressed up as a character from Fallout, and I’m pretty sure the guy had no idea who she was supposed to be but made conversation with it anyways. Some time passes by and my uncle finds us and comes into the conversation. My uncle was dressed as a trailer park boy, sporting a mullet, hockey stick, and a flaming blue and red shirt. The guy who was potentially hitting on my aunt notices him and asks what is his costume, to which my uncle replies “what costume?”. Immediately after, the guy says something like,”oh...um” and then just bolts off. After realizing what had just happened, my aunt scolds my uncle as I die laughing in the middle of them.
how do these girls who are being harassed manage to not punch half these people
“Homura And Madoka”
Remember kids: Madoka Magica is not safe for kids!
"threatened to attack my cosplay buddy with a yaoi paddle if he didn't "support the empire""
Sorry, but that being said just sounds hilarious. If that was said to me, I might laugh. Unless I was cosplaying other Hetalia character. Then I would've been annoyed, I'd mutter out something along of lines that I don't really roleplay, and go away.
But still, attack with a yaoi paddle... Supporting the empire...😂
I just came back from a con from this weekend and really didn't have anything huge on this scale happening. That's why there's so many rules implemented. Like no Live Metal props or armor is allowed (to prevent such incidents like stated in the video). And a major thing is ALWAYS asking for permission first. It's one thing to be expressing love towards a cosplayer dressed up as your favorite character (I got that a lot where random people would run up to me and shout how much they love Wei Wu Xian and yes that was who I was cosplayed as on the first day). Cosplay does not equal consent!
The closest scariest moment I had was when a Con staff (she was the assisting director of the con) came running into the bathroom while I was washing my hand. Scared the crap out of me by saying "Sorry but can you help me!" She was in tears and was literally having a panic attack on me and another con-goer by the sink. I was startled and flustered on how to handle her situation. What happened was, she just had to deal with an old guy who had a professional camera who was apparently getting the way of another photo session (of another professional photographer) with his behavior. She went there to tell that old guy to move to another place and ask for permission to photograph cosplayers. The old guy got aggressive with her by getting up into her face and threatening to take pics and make statements about her 'true nature' and other threats. He was removed forcefully by security from the con and his badge revoked. I ended up staying with the staff lady while the other con-goer ran out to get water for her. And this was only the first day when this all went down...boyfriend wondered why I took so long in the bathroom lol.
Idea for a TV show Chris Hansen visits Con, might have to wait a while.
The closest i got to cosplaying was wearing a minecraft shirt to comicon.
Love your username and pfp.
When you realize theres a jotaro and jolyne with an actual stand
4 cosplayers? awesome
the problem with most of these creeps is that they keep forgetting that cosplayers aren't actually who they cosplay.
They're people in _costumes_ who just want to have a good time around people with similar interests.
Besides, even if those characters they love so dearly were real, they probably wouldn't appreciate the perverted comments and sexual assault either.
This is the creepiest thing that’s happened to me at a con: I’m a guy but I was cosplaying Kanna Kamui from Miss Kobayashi’s Dragon Maid. There was a guy running a booth that sold buttons. I went up to look at them, and his daughter who looked about 5 (she was sitting in a car seat watching an iPad) got up and started giggling and said “Are you sure you don’t want these ones?” She pointed to pins of explicit naked anime girls with their chests out that said “h*ntai” on it. I laughed nervously and said “hah, no thanks.” (Keep in mind I am very much a minor.) I walk away since her Dad was busy talking and I needed to get my wallet. Anyway, I came back when her dad wasn’t busy anymore and I had my wallet. I said “Do you take card?” And he said “yeah.” He took it and looked at it. It was a kind of debit card for kids that said “allowance manager” on it with a picture of a piggy bank. He said “allowance manager, huh?” And he continued to make fun of me for the fact that it was an allowance manager card. I laughed awkwardly. Then he said “are you sure your parents will let you use this? I also take other forms of payment later,” he said in a weird voice and winked. I laughed nervously again and said no. I finished the transaction and left ASAP. The fact that he acknowledged that I was a very young minor at the time and still said that and the whole thing with his daughter is really concerning. I really hope she’s doing okay. Not only was he willing to expose her to nudity and highly sexual themes but he also hit on me, a kid at the time. All around creepy.
On my first cosplay, i went in as shinobu kocho in a university, and some random guy suddenly hugged my waist real tight for a couple of seconds then ran away. He made me almost loose my balance and my sword, pants, and belt are all messy.
Not only that, one of my friends was stalked through the entire day. When we wanted to go and ask him why he did it, he will also ran away.
I remember when I cosplayed as Yuri from Doki Doki Literature Club and omfg let me tell you... All the adult men commenting on how short my skirt was so uncomfortable. I'm really tall (5'8), so I can't help how short a cosplay skirt is on me. I should've told them I was a minor so they would stop. Luckily this year I'm going to the same convention as Susie from Deltarune so HOPEFULLY no creepy guys will hit on me.
I wish people would call out these disgusting perverts instead of just "acting like I didn't see or just shrugged it off". The more you stand up and call them out, the less likely they'll keep doing it.
my friends and i were planning on going to a con as the cast of sailor moon (i was gonna cosplay as makoto) but now? i don't want to. i'm scared of being creeped upon, especially since i look 16-17 when looking at me from behind. (i'm 14)
The Enigmatic Koala same I’m 15 and I’m scared now

Sailor Moon Cosplaying has always been a dangerous game due to their costumes being a little hot for most creeps
