THIS VIDEO IS PURELY FAN-MADE AND IS IN NO WAY ASSOCIATED WITH THE MUSICAL ARTIST OR ANIME COMPANY IN ANY WAY!!

COME ON IS IMPOSSIBLE DON'T CAN DO/PLAY/MAKE COSPLAY!!!
ALL PEOPLE CAN AND THIS IS FOR FUN AND FANS!
THE ASIANS WOULD BE PROUD ALSO FOR THE POPULARITY OF ANIME/MANGA!
I THINK THAT IN EVERY NATION THERE ARE GOOD AND BAD COSPLAY.
I'M PROUD TO BE A WESTERN FAN OF ANIME/MANGA!
THIS IS A SH*T!!!
AND YOU-PROUDTOBEBORNINASIAN, OR YOUR REAL NAME; I DON'T REMEBER ^-^"- ARE PRETTY BUT WITH A LITTLE BIT OF INTELLIGENCE IN YOUR BRAIN! ^-^

I KNOW! YOUR NATION IS THE CREATOR OF ANIME/MANGA AND WE DON'T LEAVE YOU THIS NAME

  • I think my fellow asians should be proud when westerns are cosplaying our anime characters, because it only means that western people acknowledges our culture in a way (Cosplay/Watching Anime). The asian person who said that westerns can't cosplay is maybe an elementary-graduate only. I'm an Asian and i'm proud because americans liked my culture and that they are showing it by cosplaying. I think people who doesn't like westerners cosplaying shouldn't care at all. peace and freedom to all.

  • Thank you for sharing this video that promotes the other side of the story. Picking examples of poor Non-Asian cosplays to compare with professional Asian cosplays is a poor argument for their cause (picking and choosing which comments to publish adds to that as well).

    I think that any mangaka who have had their manga adapted into an anime that has become popular overseas is delighted to see cosplays done of their characters.

    Haters are going to hate when they can't get what they want.

  • most of these pictures very annoyingly cuts just when u start seeing the face. is there an attempt to hide some not so nice faces of the cosplayers involved? well i can see from their clothes and bodies is all good, but i can't bother to pause every 2sec to see complete picture doh

  • it seems quite a few anime characters nowadays are actually based on western women. it's no coincidence u see many with golden blonde hair for example

  • Its really dumb that everybody is making a huge racist issue about this. Why the heck can't people just have fun and do what they want.

  • if anyone else didn't notice, in the proudtobeasian persons video they showed ONLY the not so good cosplays for the westerners and ONLY the good cosplays for the asians.

  • you should be proud to have your own race i mean i've always wanted to look good with blond hair cause i tried to cosplay as sleeping beauty but i failed :P but when i tried japanes versions i passed *phew*

  • anyone can cosplay if u look like the character.. and if u really try so people need to stop saying we can cosplay to hell with that...we are equally good except westerners have a better body.......... unlike in hotd how the nurse has big boobies....never seen a asian with those XD

  • Damn, and here I thought imitation was the highest form of flattery.

  • This Proud dude is a disgrace, I swear. Gosh, not all of use are perfect. Comparing and shit. Like you could cosplay any better, properly photoshop couldn't fix it. Man if i saw him i would kick him in the face anime style. (im asain, and i think western cosplay is prettty cool)

  • Also unless the asians are black they can't cosplay as Simon Brezhnev (Durarara), they can't also cosplay as Nathan Seymour (Tiger and bunny). Also I agree with the America one too

  • @madcowfun1 OMG THis comment made me so happy !! *bigbighug* Thanks !! ^^
