Does anyone else have a really miserable time with figuring out their wishlist? I find myself never being able to narrow it to much less than 100, even when I'm sacrificing shit I'm in love with for the sake of lowering the numbers. I guess I'm just going to end up one of those girls getting crushed to death by a brand avalanche by the time I'm content with my wardrobe.

So we've discussed how the cosplay scene has changed over the years, but, how has cosplay changed you?
Personality-wise, I've become more open and social after starting to attend a weekly prop-making workshop, by hanging out with the rest of the students. At cons, knowing about costumes and prop crafting has been a great conversation starter with other cosplayers, too.
And learning about so many different tools, techniques, and materials has turned me into the neighborhood´s handyman, and seeing people relying on me has been a huge confidence boost.

There is obscure character thread >>9440266 for unknown characters so why not the opposite

What characters you love, which one has the same body as you or some other reason you want to cosplay but is so overdone you just ditch the idea

I brought a homemade bento for me and my friend at my last con. It was cold no matter where we went so we ended up getting a hot pepperoni pizza from the hotel café instead of eating my healthy (yet cold) bento of teriyaki chicken, white rice, green peas, carrots, and broccoli.
I once knew a guy who said that he disables the hotel room's smoke detectors, stores fresh ingredients in the mini fridge or small ice-filled cooler, and uses a camping stove to make meals every convention.
Another person I know would actually plan their meals around their cosplay. Naruto? Ramen. Vash from Trigun? Cake donuts. Kakyoin from Jojo? Cherries.

>Overall, what do you usually eat at conventions: snacks or actual meals?
>Do you bring food from home or do you eat at the food trucks?
>Do you visit nearby restaurants for every meal or are restaurants only a suppertime thing?
>Do you carefully plan out your weekend's diet, stick to your everyday diet without thinking, or go all-out on con junk food?
>Have you had bad experiences with con food?
>Have you had any particularly good experiences with con food?
>Do you opt for Japanese food so you can immerse yourself in the ~full con experience~?
>Do you choose your food based on your cosplay that day? (Like if you're cosplaying a character who's known for loving a certain food.)

Share your con food and/or con bento food ideas! Recipes would also be great!

good plus sized coords, nitpicks welcome

shitposters, try to keep it minimal.

I genuinely like seeing the cute chubby girls posted because it's rare to see them on cgl so you can bet I'll try to keep one of these threads up regularly.

Let's hear stories about cosplay organizers, show organizers, or event organizers, that did things that made you almost literally scream.
