What to do if you don't dare to cosplay alone at a comic convention? Five taboos at comic conventions

Many newbies who have just entered the circle want to attend comic conventions, but they dare not go alone. It would be a pity to give up. After all, comic conventions can also make many friends and like-minded people. Don't worry, the editor will teach you a few ways.

Tip 1: Find a friend to go out with you

When I first started to join the circle, I also met some friends who were afraid to cosplay. Then I would accompany them, so that they would dare to cosplay boldly. There is another big advantage of having friends accompany you, that is, you will not feel lonely at the exhibition. In fact, comic exhibitions are a group activity. It is difficult to have fun alone. You watch others laughing there, but you can't feel the funny point at all. But it's different with two people. You can go to the exhibition together, visit the stalls together, collect stamps together, sit together and chat, which is still a lot of fun.

The second trick: forming a group in the circle

Some friends may say that their friends don't have the costumes, or they are unwilling to cosplay, or they don't have any friends. Don't worry about this, you can choose to form a group to cosplay in your circle. For example, if you want to cosplay as Shinobu Kocho from Demon Slayer, you can recruit other members in your circle to form a team of Demon Slayer cosplayers.

Regarding the way to form a group, the first way is to recruit in the cosplay group. You should usually join some comic exhibition groups, and recruiting in the group is also good. The second way is to recruit in the forum. Now there are related comic exhibition forums, and there are often various posts about forming a group to cosplay. If you are timid and dare not recruit, you can go to the group or forum to see if anyone is recruiting, and then you can join in.

The third trick: expand your circle and form a group at comic conventions

If you are someone who plans to cosplay but doesn't dare to do it alone, you can go to the exhibition in advance to add some cosplayers, and then contact them a few days before the cosplay, and ask them to take you to the comic convention. Many people in the c circle are quite friendly.

It is worth noting that: many people in the C circle are friendly, but not all of them are good people. Everyone should also be careful when joining the C circle and not trust others too much. In addition, the C circle nowadays is a mixed bag, and many cosplayers cannot get things back after lending them out. Therefore, if it involves costumes, props, and money, don't lend to people you are not very familiar with.

The first taboo is not to secretly shoot. What is secretly shooting? Secret shooting means that you take pictures of others without the consent of the coser, without the coser's knowledge or permission. In the circle, this is not only very impolite, but also very disgusting to some cosers! So all newbies, whether you are collecting stamps or taking pictures of other big guys, you must get the consent of others. Don't secretly shoot, otherwise he may not collect stamps with you or let you take pictures!

The second taboo is not to restore! If you are a newbie who has just entered the circle, most newbies may not have a strong sense of restoring the character when cosplaying. Maybe for you, wearing a C costume or wearing a C costume with only fake hair is considered cosplay, but it is not like this! If you really like this anime character, you should try your best to restore it, whether it is from clothes or makeup, you should try your best to fit the original anime character or game character, of course, except for some force majeure! For example, you can't wear colored contact lenses. This is due to personal physical reasons and cannot be changed. So if you can't wear it, don't force yourself. But if the costumes are not restored or are randomly matched, you may be criticized by others! For example, if you wear a Mingjiao C costume but hold a Tiance military spear in your hand, this may be difficult for many people to accept.

The third is that you cannot casually comment on the appearance of others. It has become a consensus in the C circle that you should not criticize the appearance. There are few people in this circle. If the people in the circle do not protect their own people and start to bite each other just because of appearance, over time, this circle will surely begin to decline slowly. Of course, we know that people with high appearance may be able to better restore some beautiful characters in anime or games, because they have innate advantages, but some cosplayers are not so good-looking, and we can't criticize their appearance. In our circle, we only look at the degree of restoration. Looking good is one thing, and whether it is restored or not is another.

Fourthly, you cannot use the coser's pictures at will. In the coser circle, if you use the social software QQ, generally there will be two accounts, one is your own private account, and the other is the account in the circle. The account in the circle is used to add people in the same circle. In this account, he will post some photos about the set, the original photos or the returned photos, etc. Remember, you must not steal other people's pictures at will, no matter how great their photos are. When saving, if they don't indicate that you can save them, it is recommended to chat with the coser privately and save them only with his permission, otherwise there will be some very unnecessary trouble.

The fifth taboo is not to sell body parts at comic exhibitions! This requires certain conditions. In recent years, many female anchors of online live broadcasts have put on maid outfits or the C-suits of some relatively exposed characters in anime in order to attract attention, which has led many people to have a vulgar impression of this circle. However, if you really like anime and cosplay, please do not do this. This is our common home. Sometimes it is understandable to expose the characters, but if you just wear a bikini and say that this is a cosplay, sorry, the comic exhibition exit will immediately appear in front of you!

1. Consume reasonably

When going to comic exhibitions, many newbies want to buy whatever they see when they see something they like. Some people cannot consume rationally. They want to buy whatever they like when they see it, regardless of whether they have the financial ability to afford it or not. Many people even use up all the money for the bus fare home after attending comic exhibitions. In addition, merchants at comic exhibitions also try every means to promote consumption. There are many lucky draws, and each draw is worth 20 or 30 yuan. Although the first prize is indeed very tempting to us, how many people can win it? Generally, some people win some small items, worthless pendants. It’s okay to draw a few times for fun, but don’t get addicted.

2. Don’t call the wrong Coser

There are many Cosplayers at every comic convention. In the Cos circle, many people have their own names. In our daily life, we usually call someone "little brother" or "little sister" to express our love for them or it is normal, but try not to say that at comic conventions, as it may attract the attention of the Coser. You have to learn how to address others correctly. When you see a Coser and want to communicate with him, remember to use the name in the Cos circle. If you don't know, try to say the COS character's name, which will make the Coser happy.

3. Don’t ask for a cosplayer

What does it mean not to make demands on Coser? For example, we can take photos with Coser, but of course we must get their consent. If you still ask Coser to cater to your own ideas and make various poses, isn’t it a bit too much? If others agree to take photos with you, you should be happy. Don’t make unreasonable demands. I hope everyone can remember this.
