It's been about 5 years since I've posted on this board, but here goes:
I've been feeling really out of place at conventions lately. Is it just me or have the crowds gone through a drastic change in the past few years? I mean, I feel like cosplayers are always giving each other the stink eye for cosing from the same series and everyone's copying the same two tutorials so they all look the same. Do you ever find yourself missing the days of wearing terribad cosplay and doing embarrassing anime dances in the hallway? Speak to me, I'm here for you, anon.
ITT: Weeb stories from the past where you had a good time without caring what other people thought/recent experiences with stick up their butt cosplayers
Let's reminisce tonight anon

>Really into deathnote
>Cosplayed L, friend was blonde so naturally she chooses to be Halle Litner
>not Misa
>We enter the costume contest and caramelldansen with a paper mache face ryuk who wins the cosplay contest
>couldn't even find the fast version of the caramelldansen they only had the slow version so we ended up dancing for way too long
doesn't sound fun I guess but I remember it being extremely fun
