Where can I sell cosplay in Zhengzhou city?

It is a common practice for cosplayer in Hongkong and Chinese mainland to go to a tailor's shop to tailor. One of the advantages of this is that it is cheap, and the other is that it is convenient for you to make your own demands. Generally speaking, tailor shops are easy to find in Chinese mainland, but few people can really make cosplay clothes. Usually in Chinese mainland, you can get your clothes within one to two weeks after you submit your order. If you are dissatisfied with the clothes at this time, the shopkeeper will usually change the system for you on the spot.

In fact, it's really expensive to make a cosplay suit. The finished clothes in specialty stores usually cost nearly 1,000 yuan. Although it costs less to make their own costumes, according to the complexity of cos costumes, it sometimes costs nearly 600 yuan or 700 yuan, and it also requires considerable efforts and labor. In view of this, in Taiwan Province Province, cosplay is called a waste of life and money by some people. But for the vast number of cosplayer, all this is worthwhile.

How was cosplay today?

After a long period of development and exploration, today's cosplay has been quite perfect. It can not only play people, but also anything in comics and games, such as animals and robots. You can play as long as you want, without any restrictions. However, sometimes it is very difficult to get out of every step as a robot. It's incredible that some people dress up as space warships and have to crawl on the ground like warships. Cosplay, as a subsidiary culture of acg, has increasingly become the mainstream of youth culture and entertainment in today's society. Cosplay can be used to enliven friends' birthday parties, large and small animation exhibitions, or "masquerade parties" between lovers. More importantly, while cosplay, you may make some mentors and friends by making and learning other people's cosplay, and you can also entertain the public while satisfying your body and mind.

Today's Japan, in addition to the regular Tokyo video game exhibition and various animation exhibitions in spring and autumn, as well as the cosplay annual meeting, can be said to be a gathering of the national cosplay elites in Japan, providing them with an opportunity to change their clothes. In addition to young people, Japanese cosplay enthusiasts also have children involved, and some children even dress up with their parents and practice a cosplay of various sizes. In addition, cosplay is still a profession in Japan. Japanese pop singers Takashi Kashiwabara and Yoshihara Fujiwara also like cosplay very much, which shows that the charm of cosplay in Japan has a great influence.

However, while enjoying the fun, in order to reduce unnecessary troubles, Japan has restrictions on tourists shooting cosplayer. Visitors are not allowed to take photos at will except for the cosplay photography area specially set up in the venue. Take the Tokyo Game Show every year as an example. Cosplay has no so-called activities. Just in the corridor outside the venue, many cosplayers will come and take photos for everyone. Of course, they will also appear in the venue, but in principle, cosplayers are not allowed to take pictures in the venue. Some people may promise to let you take pictures, but you must take pictures outside. As for the reasons, first, because the venue is the activity of the manufacturer, we can only shoot the show girl of the manufacturer. Although the manufacturer does not necessarily care, cosplayer himself does not necessarily like such disorderly behavior. The Japanese always come according to the regulations. It's not the case that they should take pictures, and they will refuse! Secondly, because most of them pay more attention to their identity, I hope you can respect them, so when they want to have a good visit, they may not want someone to take pictures of them all the time. As for the third type, because many Japanese cosplayer have high requirements for self-expression, they don't want to be filmed in this way when the shooting conditions are not good. If they want to take pictures, they would rather go outside where they can take pictures, where there is enough sunshine, and pose satisfactorily so that you can take beautiful pictures. Of course, it is also worth noting that taking pictures must be approved by others. Taking pictures is absolutely impolite!

In addition, as a symbolic culture of Japan, cosplay team can also be seen in street performances. Near the shrine bridge, it is the base camp of Cosplay, an internationally renowned street show in Harajuku. Cosplay here is simply divided into several factions, such as Palace Doll Department, Star Vision Department, Kaman Department, shiina Nursery Clothing Department, White Face Department, Self-created Department and so on. The crowds are most concentrated on Saturday and Sunday afternoons. In fact, this culture of self-expression first became popular after the opening of the clothing store "budeikku Bamboo" in Harajuku, forming an atmosphere of gathering in a "pedestrian paradise" on weekends. Therefore, this group of people wearing strange clothes was once called "bamboo", which reached its climax in the 1980 s, but this name has gradually been forgotten.

How can I join cosplay?

As an unofficial entertainment activity, there are basically no restrictions on its participation, whether in Japan, Chinese mainland, Taiwan Province Province or Hongkong. As long as you have your own cosplay clothes, you can participate in cosplay activities of various exhibitions as a community or an individual.

Cosplay itself is not limited to roles, so before the exhibition, you should first select the role you want to play from various acg magazines, and then start collecting all kinds of information and materials about this role. For example, the costumes, props and image characteristics of the characters are all things that need to be investigated. Then you can prepare the clothes. As for the specific operation method, it has been mentioned above.

In this way, you can happily run to the venue and participate in cosplay performances until the launch day.

What does cosplay bring us?

It's hard to say what cosplay has brought us. After all, everything has two sides. To outsiders, cosplay is an uneconomical and meaningless activity. I remember a real incident in Taiwan Province Province, which resulted in false reports because the media didn't understand cosplay. So what did cosplayer get?

In fact, as the author said in the last article, the real cosplay is not only to dress up its appearance, but also to communicate with the soul. Imagine that in such a fiercely competitive urban society, everyone will suffer from various pressures and puzzles because of their unsatisfactory work or study. If we can put these aside at this time and cos gives birth to another self, wouldn't it be a great liberation of self-mental pressure? We can relax ourselves by changing roles, so we don't just position cosplay in the role of acg. In fact, everyone plays a different role in society, doesn't he? After all, every human being in real life must have his own troubles. Today, whether you are a poor beggar or a rich man, you have your own troubles. The so-called acg characters have nothing to worry about in the real world (three dimensions) where cosplayers exist. Cosplay players can also become acg characters through cosplay, and get a kind of spiritual liberation, a temporary escape from reality and a temporary change of thought. Even though the sacrifice of acg has passed, we still have to face the reality, but the joy we felt at that time and the relaxed feeling of escaping from the pain of reality can make us more positive, confident and expecting.

Finally, what should I say for you?

Dream, I wonder how many people have such a gorgeous word in their hearts. Think of countless dreams when I was a child. Now some have been realized, and some are still out of reach. However, on second thought, this is exactly what cosplay can do. Go to cos to talk about my childhood dream. Although this has not changed anything for reality, my body and mind will be relieved and satisfied in an instant. Go to cosplay, this kind of attempt may make you live younger (laughs).
