Hey! for the guys that are saying that they want to cosplay but they don't because of their skin color, i want you to know you re beautiful and you can do whatever you want if it makes you happy! (except hurting people ok). I love you, random person who is reading this comment.

[@GOdsBriana]

Izzy Berbesía I really want to do a cosplay of one of the female Wakanda warrior, however, because I am very fair not too many people are on board with it even though I'm black. I want to do the cosplay because I loved how these women were portrayed. They inspired me but for most people, this isn't enough.

Honestly it's so good to see more cosplayers of color, it's hard to have to be shoved into a little box by elitists who think that we can only cosplay a very small ratio of characters. But that's why i'm gonna cosplay Junko Enoshima and Celestia Ludenburg from Danganronpa at Momocon this year.

I'm 12 and I'm black.. none of my family has been to a con but my sister and I are planning on going to one but we're both 12.. I want to cosplay as Korra, and I guess it wont be too hard but I don't want to be alone since I have no experience whatsoever. any tips?

[@BecomingTia]

At the convention, find an event or panel to attend about something you're interested in (e.g. a Korra/Avatar panel) and meet some people there. Introduce yourself to the panelists or someone next to you (or ask your sister to introduce both of you) so that way you can feel less alone. Anyways, you won't be alone. A lot of people are cosplaying for the first time too! I was actually thinking of making a video called, "How to Make a Korra Cosplay". I want to do a "How to Make a __ Cosplay" series. Would that be helpful to you?

I hope that you love it! I'm only just getting in to it myself and I'm not good at online shopping so I'm just gona have my sister do it (she is the best at online shopping). My tip for cosplay is buy it if it doesn't leave you bankrupt and if it will try your best to make it, I suggest doing something more popular so there is an actual cosplay for it. I'm having trouble making a cosplay that doesn't exist on online... Wish me luck!

[@dj_kittu1232]

[@mushrooma7799]

when I was younger I LOVED cosplaying with my older sister. i even won at cons a few times, cosplaying was really fun, i loved going to cons, loved when people took pictures of my cosplay, or complimented me :) but after a few years my sister made me quit cosplay. She threw away my wigs, my costumes,she hid somewhere my expensive ones.. my mother was supportive when I cosplayed but she hated when I was dressing up as demons, monsters etc. when my father was still alive he didn't even know I was a cosplayer, but when he find out he didn't care but of course he didn't like it. After I was forced to quit cosplaying, I cosplayed when my sister wasn't home, but after some time, I quit for real. Of course I'm sad.. I really liked cosplaying! And I still want to.. maybe I will talk to my sister abou this, and I will come back to cosplaying. (Sorry for bothering, i know no one will read this, I just wanted to share my story)

You should talk to her about it, also, tell your mother, and ask her for advice.

There is no need to be scared to cosplay because of your skin color, many cosplayers of all colors cosplay different characters of different races. Females play males and males play females too, just go for it.

my display is going to be easy I wanna do england from hetalia

[@zxphyr5808]

Rosette loveday hello fellow hetalia fan!

[@little-furina]

Just try to find version of England's outfit that isn't too expensive be wary, Hetalia cosplay can run up a lot of money... Though yes England would be a very easy one...

I'm GonNa Be nYO pRusSia foR MY FIRSTR COSPLAY YEET

[@furiousmagician5912]

I will be Belarus or Sealand

[@daniellefermin2265]

Ooh, a fellow Hetalian, I see! In the future, when I go to my first convention (my parents don't allow me right now, but I shall when I grow older), I'd probably cosplay as a Hetalia character too. I'm not so sure on who though. I was thinking Nyo! Japan because she kind of looks like me, but the problem is my height doesn't really suit her, and I'm too broke. I still hope I'll be able to though!

Thanks for this video! I’m an 11 year old brown girl, so I’m not the most confident in cosplay, and these tips are really helpful!

[@cr33p3rboiv5]

This was some great help. I'm making a costume for tamaki amajiki, suneater, from my hero academia and I was watching this and I honestly didn't think about researching his eye color but now I'm going to. 😂 I loved the video thanks!

Thank you so much for the video! I've been kind of wanting to get into this sorta thing for a while, I just had no idea where to start. I love your hair too btw, the colors are really bright and pretty

[@BecomingTia]

I'm glad you've got somewhere to start now.

[@ItzsJorjaa_]

Thank you for this video. I recently bought a cosplay of Tsukasa Yugi from Jibaku Shoneun Hanako kun and I am generally a bit nervous due to the whole skin colour thing especially during this time (I'm sure you're aware) but people like you and other cosplayers I have come accross have inspired me and I'm going to pursue it. I'm very excited for it to arrive Thank youu 😊
