The trick is to wait and then flip the statue on ebay for double what you paid for it

you, a fool who's probably never even played a video game as far as i know: i am cosplaying as this character because i like how they look me, a genius who has played every video game across the seven seas: Personally, I am cosplaying Colonel Jade Curtiss because I believe his incredible wit and intelligence matches my own, and also I care about video games

I think one morally good thing you could do instead of spending extra on an Assassin’s Creed figurine is buying a sculpture or something from a local artist!

Like imagine if my favorite thing was wearing baseball jerseys in public but I don't actually care about baseball or the team's shirt I'm wearing. But I go out of my way to dress in perfect uniform all the time. Like my outfit? Yeah, its great, I spent hours on it. Who? The Yankees? I dunno I just thought it was a cool pattern. At that point, just get into fashion instead?

Personally I don't get the cosplayers that dress up and then knock on my door demanding candy. Like how do they even know I have candy to begin with? It's my candy you selfish fucks.

The only thigns I remember about Escaflowne was that the DVD menus had monks chanting "Esca-flow-ne" and if you let it sit for a few minutes they started sing-chanting "push the button". I also remember it having some real good music. The OVA movie thing too. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TYf7NluE5D4

I barely remembered anything about Escaflowne so I went back and watched it earlier this year and quite liked it. The movie is kind of "eh" overall though.

But I go out of my way to dress in perfect uniform all the time. At some point that kind of drifts into saying people aren't liking things the right way, which is weird and kind of self defeating. And fashion would certainly be more interesting if everyone dressed like they were in a video game.

I think cosplayers just as often as they dress up as characters they like, dress up as characters because they just like the outfit and think it'll look good on them or do it because they have an online presence and know it'll get them clicks and/or $$$. There is really nothing wrong with any of these reasons.

the weird thing about escaflowne is that it's very definitely a story about the school girl but apparently the dub that got aired on fox kids cut out a bunch of her scenes to try and make it an action anime about her love interest

There is really nothing wrong with any of these reasons. I just feel like cosplaying stuff that isn't even out yet is buying real hard into the corporation's wishes, super consumerist. Same with buying figurines for games that aren't out yet. There's soooo many fictional characters you can dress up as that already exist. Instead you dress up as like captain phasma before star wars is even out, and then find out she's basically not even in the movie. Its putting the cart before the horse.

Escaflowne isn't my all time favorite but the robots were cool (even if robots with swords is kinda silly) I liked most of it although the subplot about the people with a 'luck gene' was super dumb.
