Cosplay The New Trend of The Teens
Before I begin my article I just wanted to let you know how my Saturday went yesterday.
I fixed myself early morning getting ready because I will go to my husband after his shift because its the birthday of his colleague and a friend. But I only went to the sari sari store near from their office, they have their liquor with them enjoying the celebration while me only beside my husband just sitting and listening to their stories. I only a had bottle water with me, and one of his friend offer chocolate candy cloud 9, at first I'm hesitant but still I accept and ate it, in my mind he will think I'm snobbish. Sometimes Toxic Filipino culture thinking first what would others will say rather than what we feel. And I'm very like that. April 15, 2023 Saturday, in the middle of their birthday moments their boss came too with his partner. Finally, their birthday moments ended.
And we were under that Indian Mango tree, a good ambiance to have bonding with friends. After we joined the birthday celebration we went out for lunch my hubby only and me. Hubby's friends go separately with us too. After our lunch we went inside Festive Walk Mall and there were many cosplayers they had a contest and I'm so excited seeing different costumes whom they portrayed and hubby will be like not liking the crowded places with many people roaming around while me enjoying until hubby annoys me telling me that its really good to have fun with cosplays if you are below 20's rather than more than 35 years, ouch and he hit me hard, but I really love seeing cosplayers as if I'm in another world. I can easily appreciate cosplayers, if during my era's there were cosplays maybe I will join but that is true hubby is telling the truth I'm not really fit in their trends as a cosplayer.
When was Cosplay Created?
It was created 1984 in Japan, with the convention of different costumes portraying the rule of their different anime character.
Who Invented Cosplay?
Nobuyuki Takahashi invented cosplay, The Japanese term Kosupure, anglicized as cosplay, is a portmanteau of the English words costumes play.
Why I Really Like Cosplay and Anime
Can create the artistic side of the player, they know how to manage and make their own improvised side costumes like the boxes and other extra linens.
They can express their thoughts on how to deal with the role they play.
They study the character they portrayed and internalize in themselves.
It doesn't matter if you're an antagonist or a protagonist, what matters is how you portray the roles.
Having a break from the real world we live in, because in anime and gamers world all is possible because of their super powers and being mutant that enables them to protect themselves from the attackers.
In Anime world there are no mortals living, all are immortals but how they will detect the weakest point of their opponent.
Its fun watching anime because there are similarities with us human, the difference only they have their super powers, but they have feelings too.
Can help us forget the problems we have in our present life.
We can match the behaviors we have and the attitude we have to the character of our favorite anime.
Lastly, there's more in the world to explore and discover might have some basis in reality that are not yet publicized.
The photo below is the happening yesterday from the mall, where cosplayers participated and each of them took a snap with their friends who also joined the event.
I think its the new trend among teens nowadays, for me it's a good event conducted by the event organizers to help the teens divert their thoughts in a different approach of reality not the literally called reality that made them suffocated and drowning of too overwhelming factors in their every day lives.
