Everyone has his/her own taste in Anime Cosplay costumes, Asian are likely to cosplay cute and sweet characters, meanwhile westerners and Americans are keen on cool and seductive ones mostly. Days ago, tremendous anime fans from all over the world descended on Hobart this weekend to celebrate the annual 늑대닷컴 Island Convention together. This is the big chance for cosplayers to cosplay what they desire for.

As to the film/anime cosplay costumes, there is apparent distinguishing for girls and boys respectively. But sometimes people do crossplay on purpose-portraying the characters of the opposite sex. Yeah, women can be cool and smart as man, or man can be sweet. That's full of fun and adventure. Currently, the pop Vocaloid Cosplay Costume activates the progress of its spreading. Anime is a distinctive style of Japanese animation, developed in the 1950s. Since then, it's escaped into the rest of the world and gained a huge following. AICon organiser Ben Holton says anime is a part of daily life in Japan. "You sit down to tea at 6:30 and you watch an anime," he says. Anime has been gaining popularity in Tasmania too. "In the last two years we've had increase of three and four hundred people each year to the convention," Ben says.

To break the dreary normalcy, we need to try something new and things that we never experience, this is the typical point of view in cosplay. Particularly, among the massive anime cosplay costumes, Kuroshitsuji Cosplay appealing to my attention. I love Black Butler Kuroshitsuji Ciel Phantomhive Tailoredsuit costume. Not only the outfits are attracts to me, but also the protagonists himself. In addition, the convention for anime cosplay is the best chance to experience the feeling how the cosplayers bring virtual characters into realitic life.

"This year we think our attendance at the moment is about 1,100." Part of the culture involves dressing up as a favourite character, a practice known as cosplay. Fans spend hours, even weeks, preparing their outfits, to vie for the top prize in the AICon cosplay competition. Ben says he's amazed by the array of anime cosplay costumes on display. "I saw one girl that had completely beaten metal armour and wings," he says. "You can just imagine the amount of hours they've put into it." The winners of this year's AICon cosplay competition were Tessa Beattie from Battery Point and Brogan Mancell from Sandy Bay.
