With Anime Festivals Come Cosplay…



As the New York Anime Festival is approaching, I feel like it’s time to dust off the old black cloaks, repaint the 6 foot tall broad swords, and once again bribe your brothers or sisters to cosplay the opposite gender so you can go as an Anime couple. With that said, what better way to kick off this blog than to dive into that fun, yet sometimes very disturbing, world of cosplay!


From my experiences at cosplay events, I’ve concluded some characters get much more acknowledgment in the eyes of fans when it comes to taking hours to create costumes, accessories, and props for these events.If anyone feels they will go to the NYAF in costume then perhaps you may try characters not on this list to get more attention or see if you can be a better version of these than other cosplayers.


So without further ado….The Top 10 Characters (not really in order) Cosplayed at Conventions/Festivals are:



Sora from Kingdom Hearts


Naruto Uzumaki from Naruto


Yugi Mutou from YuGiOh


Yuna from Final Fantasy


Ichigo from Bleach


Hideki Motosuwa from Chobits


Misa from Death Note


Rikku from Final Fantasy


InuYasha from InuYasha


Any Sailor Moon Member


Honorable Mention: Chung Li from Street Fighter
