Epic M3con Cosplay Competition

Mon Nov 23, 2009, 7:31 AM
Grabe ang saya! I don't know if the audience had as much fun as we cosplayers had... but it was really fun.

For those who weren't there or for those who don't know the mechanics, it was a tournament style that went on like this. All cosplayers were split to two teams, red and blue, of equal number. You won't know who your opponent is until you get on stage, and you must remain in character no matter who that other person is. So imagine a gundam mecha vs a five year old red ranger. In my case, I had to go against a guy from Pandora Hearts... and my Finny was SCARED of that huge sword >.<

Round two for the winners of round one had to pick awkward situations and act appropriately with, again, another random character on stage. Imagine Sensui and the guy he was against picked up a card that said Sensui had a boss and he was late, the other guy (I forgot who he was up against >.<;) went "Why are you late...blah blah blah...don't you know who your boss is? who your god is?" and then Sensui replied with "Wala akong Dyos" EPIC! :)

Round three was a tag team match where again the teams are random. My fight was really for lols.... I was Finny and teamed with the penguin... VS Rock Lee and Red Ranger.... cuteness vs martial arts... of course we lost lol.

The winning pair go against each other until only four were left and then it became a question and answer thing.

It was great because we were judged not only on how well made the costumes are, but on another aspect that is often left out in most cosplay competitions: knowing ones character and actually acting like him/her. Costume play "cosplay" is not only Costume, there is a play aspect to it. I am guilty of this and sometimes I choose characters that I don't really understand.... but these instances I costrip because I feel I don't give them justice if I join the competition.

Altogether, it was really fun. WInning or losing didn't matter much because we all had a great time :)
