So I'm sure I'm not the only one here who cosplays. I've been doing it since age 12 (I'm 17 now).

Sadly my parents don't permit me to show pictures (which sucks because I would love to get feedback on my costumes) but I'll provide a list of the ones I've been and plan to do.

Already Done:
- Kagome from Inuyasha ( this was my first ever ;3; )
- Tohru from Fruits Basket
- Hinata from Naruto Shippuden
- Anko from Naruto
- Plusle (Pokemon Gijinka design)

Planning to Do:
- Kazemon from Digimon Frontier nevermind...

Thinking About:
- Hikari from Special A
- Beat Jumper from Shugo Chara
- Nadeshiko from Shugo Chara
- Yui from K-On
- Urara from Super Sentai Magiranger
- Mikuru or Yuki from The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya
- Jesse Anderson from YuGiOh GX.

So what about you guys? Any other cosplayers around? :3

Well at next year's anime convention I plan to cosplay one day as Eevee and another day as Shaymin. I already bought outfits to cosplay as them.

Oooo I love gijinka costumes! Did you buy them online or buy materials to throw together yourself?

Random question that's not totally pressing and urgent but still something I would like to find out:

Does anyone know any good stores on Oahu that sell wigs in various colors that can be styled for cosplaying?

I'm thinking about buying and ordering online, but honestly, I like the perks that come with shopping from a local store.

Sadly, I don't. I still need a wig for my Shaymin cosplay and my mom told to wait till a couple days after Halloween when they have costume sales to get a wig.

Make sure the one you buy is good quality! A lot of the Halloween costume stuff is meant for one-time use, so they can turn out to be pretty poor quality. D:
