This went really well, but the old thread is in auto-sage.
Post/discuss cosplays you rarely (or never) see at cons, whether it be that the series isn't well known, too old to be remembered, or both.

Fuckyeah, Grandia 2 was awesome.
Anyways, one of my favorite series: Berserk. I've seen some, but not much I know there is a good Caska on tumblr.
Gratuitous selfpost but good golly do I love IIDX and it's pretty rarely cosplayed! I've never seen one in the flesh.
>>8970245
I see a Guts almost every year I go to AnimeBoston
>>8970803
I absolutely love some of the designs in Avalon Code. Wishing that one day either I'll see some cosplays at a con I go to, or just do one myself.
>>8970261
Can I ask you which characters are you specifically? Are you cosplaying the DJs or characters from certain songs from IIDX?
>>8970958
The first is Acty Aries as seen in HIGH and LOW. The second is splash screen art of DJ Celica, third splash screen art of DJ Ameto and the last is Ameto as seen in Express Emotion!
So a little bit of both!
>>8970245
Totally agree on the Berserk front, such a great manga, seen some good griffiths around, always have mixed feelings about the really good Griffithe's though
i always want to see more Chrono Trigger/Cross cosplays, love those games, (photo dumb coming)

Any full bodies of this?
>>8970803
Wowsers, I love the design of this. Avalon Code is now definitely on my list. That unironed skirt is killing me though...
>>8971230
Thank you for sharing these, anon! CT is my favorite game of all time, and although you see the odd cosplay pop up every now and again, I feel like it doesn't get the exposure and (more often than not) skill it deserves.
>>8971274
god i wish, this one shows a bit more, but can't see the tail, makes me sad, i love irene
>>8971312
ikr! I keep trying to hunt down a good Ayla cosplay, but it's close to impossible, the costumes in the game are almost too simple for they're own good. Makes them very hard cosplays in a weird way.
Photo dump incoming, for the sake of getting this going.

Aaaaand done.
And remember; rarity is relative depending on each country.

Yeah! Avalon code has some fantastic designs, but I feel like DS games that aren't under a huge company are easily lost in the more well known ones.
>>8970817
Still have some pics left, so I'll post them.

these are great! i loved this game and i want to eventually cosplay cuvelia or red lipica. I think i saw someone posting an iroha WIP in a really old thread, so it's awesome to know iidx is still around.
Always see one or two shaman king cosplayers and one guy as gene starwind at MCM London.
Shame noone does more.
1/2 Prince. Definitely. It's just not a popular manga to be well known.

Yessss, I love all these Avalon Code cosplays! The game is so sadly underrated.
There's not enough Castlevania cosplays.. Especially good ones, so please share if you guys have any good ones
>>8972876
Haha that was me, I'm shocked someone remembers when I was working on that
>>8972929
Seconding this. Adrian-Farenheights on dA does an excellent job, especially on the initial outdoors shoot they did. I'm less keen on the make-up for the second, indoor shoot, but it's still nicely done.
>>8972947
I see what you're talking about... But damn, their cosplay really is amazing! I especially love the wig, I hate the white-blonde wigs most Alucard cosplayers use since they never look good...
>>8972953
The only thing I would tweak aside for the indoors makeup would be to give the cloak collar more of the defined shape that's there in Ayami Kojima's artwork.
I've seen about one LoS Alucard cosplay, and it looked rather off. I'd love to see more done properly.
There are a couple of decent Dracul cosplays out there, the best being this one, which is a very impressive crossplay of old!Dracul from the epilogue of LoS1/ prologue of 2. The petite lady next to Dracul in the bottom left image is actually the cosplayer herself, 'shopped in for a comparison.
I really hate the overabundance of cheap costume satins in too many Castlevania cosplays, as well as bad Alucard wigs. Just invest in a decent quality lacefront, it really does go a long way. Some of the problem though for colour for Alucard cosplays is that in the sprite artwork, Alucard's hair looks more platinum, whereas it's more of a very pale blonde in Ayami Kojima's artwork.
Bumping with some Mononoke. Just started watching this series today because I love avant garde stuff.

>Fuckyeah, Grandia 2 was awesome.
Lol I just wish I could find more well done cosplays of it that aren't Millenia-tits. There some decent Grandia 1 cosplayers, but I enjoyed II way more back in the Dreamcast days.
>>8972905
This. Or anything from the old Shonen Jump days.
>>8971498
The fanmade characters fot Ghost? Now I cab die happy.

Ohhhh yes. This is my planned Halloween costume for this year. God that game was so fun and so so underrated.
anyone got any undernight in-birth cosplays? I'd be really interested to see how someone would go around doing Hilda's hair
>>8977361
rare vocaloid cosplay always make me happy.
You know what I almost never see anymore? FFVI cosplay that's based on the game art and Nomura's original designs, as opposed to the Amano versions. Anybody got any good ones?
