Honestly I think cos-playing is awesome, I have never done it but would like to, but I think I have a different take on it than some do, for instance I KNOW for a fact I do not even remotely resemble ANY Naruto character. So what I do is I am myself but dressed up like a member of the group, like Akatsuki they pretty much all wear the same outfits so I am me as a member of the group, or a Sound Ninja, Leaf Ninja etc. I am learning how to sew so maybe I can even come up with my own ideas. I am actually supposed to get the Akatsuki outfit tomorrow. I would also like to dress up as a Soul Reaper, Exorcist-from D. Gray-Man, and State Alchemist.
Here is a pic of my Akatsuki outfit I just got! I cannot wait to wear it out!!
