Share what cosplays you were surprised to see at Kcon 2011 this year.
I was surprised to see a Minami from Baka to Test. I ran up to her for a photo and she told me that only three people recognized her from the whole entire con. Also, surprised to see a whole AnoHana group, since the anime is fairly new and I wasn't expecting a group quite yet for this con this year. Oh, and I was surprised to see more Tiger & Bunny cosplayers than I expected. Cool. If you're one of these people drop a reply or a PM to me. :D
Anyone else?
-
Max Goof and Roxanne from A Goofy Movie were an epic surprise for me.~
-
Steve from Blue's Clues.
-
Tiger and Bunny! It really made my day to see them, I was so happy.
I also saw an angel beats cosplayer which made me smile. I saw a lot of good cosplays this year and was pretty pleased with them.
-
Steve from Blue's Clues.
haha. I took Japanese with him. I was sort of surprised to see him, and I can't remember whether or not he knew I crossplayed . . but I said hi anyways. ;P
-
Anaru from that AnoHana group. I'm glad some people recognized us :'D
Parappa and Lammy were unexpected and made my god damn day.
-
What the....Max Goof, Steve, Parappa.....I didn't see any of these!
I was surprised to see Fry and Leela from Futurama though. That was awesome. And the fact that there was actually a Chichi from Dragon Ball was fantastic. It was really well done too.
-
CREEPER FOR LYFE. Seriously, loved that damn Creeper.
-
Steve from Blue's Clues.
I loved that guy! XD
-
People from Mawaru Penguindrum!! I was so surprised and happy to see people cosplaying from this amazing new anime!
-
Anaru from that AnoHana group. I'm glad some people recognized us :'D
Parappa and Lammy were unexpected and made my god damn day.
Wait. Were you the Anaru?
@Spontaneous: OMG. Yes. I was so happy to see people from Mawaru Penguindrum. Love that show. <3
-
OH
and the Eyeshield 21 group
I never thought I'd see that cosplay ever.
It made my con.
-
Anaru from that AnoHana group. I'm glad some people recognized us :'D
Parappa and Lammy were unexpected and made my god damn day.
Wait. Were you the Anaru?
Yep~ that was me.
-
I saw the creeper! Got a picture with him. I also saw a lakitu! xD
-
Nine toes on day three was fun to see :)
I think by far the zoids kid was the most pleasant surprise.
-
I was so happy to see Seth from Trinity Blood, Faith from Mirror's Edge, Rattmann from Portal 2, and that little girl dressed as Maka from Soul Eater. :3
-
Trollface, Dat Ass, Captain Jack Harkness.
I think that's it xD
-
OH. And the Grudge xD Shr was outside of my hotel room.
-
This is an easy one: Liger Zero Jager. That kid easily made my con.
Second place goes to the mascot Kon though.
-
I don't think anyone expected the Jerry Statler and Conrad Waldorf cosplay.
They went Spanish inquisition on my ***.
-
The adorable group of Tokyo Mew Mew cosplayers ;--; I got cavities from the overwhelming amount of cute.
-
SERIOUSLY! every time I saw them, I would stop everything I was doing so I could watch their adorable dances. ;~;

I will pass on your compliments. The Mint cosplayer is my little sister, heh. So glad their cosplays were well-received!
-
I loved the little moogle girl who also did a mini Tseng. She was ADORABLE! I was also suprised to see Pochahontas.
-
Not one, but two Tiger & Bunny groups of varying sizes.
I have so many pictures now. Soooooooo many pictures.
-

This exactly.
-

Thanks you guys, I am glad my Liger Zero Jager made your con! haha! And I was asked quite a bit, yes I indeed I am girl, a 20 year old girl haha! So many people were surprised. But thanks guys really this made me smile =]
Let's see as for me...it would have to be the other Mecha that was there, the grey robot, I have no idea what he was from but I was happy to see another mecha here.
-

Glad we were appreciated it!
I was happy to see so many people actually know who we were!
-
I was wearing an SSS uniform from Angel Beats! with no hairstyle resembling the characters, unfortunately. Plus I didn't have a gun prop ready before the con (really wanted an assault rifle replica with a strap so I can carry it on my back). BUT I was happy to see someone cosplay as Yurippe. She's an awesome character.
It seems there WAS some Ano Hana cosplayers. Sigh... I love that show. I didn't get to catch the cosplayers anywhere.
I think I saw some Minami cosplayer from Baka Test as well, which is pretty cool. That show deserves more attention.
I also saw Mayuri from Steins;Gate! And I got her to say Tu-tu-ruuu~. *laughs like Okarin*
Someone cosplayed as Kirino from Ore no imouto... yeeeeeeeeeeeess.
The Gurren Lagann full body suit was pretty epic too. I told him he should make a Giga Drill for next time.
Edit1: OH YEAH! I WAS HAPPY TO SEE A RECETTEAR.. AND IT WAS PRETTY GOOD. I feel bad they kept getting your real name confused with the character name. What noobs >_> I also raised my arm the same time did when you said "Capitalism, Ho!" at the Cosplay contest.
That's all I can think of off the top of my head. People should really focus on watching newer anime series IMO.
-
Steve from Blue's clues xD That guy was awesome.
-
I did not expect Slendy to appear and was happy I got a photo of him in the crowd. xDD
Also the Mew Mew group was so damn adorable!
-
Beatrice from Umineko. I was hoping to see something from that show and that cosplay was awesome.
NUMEROUS Princess Tutu cosplayers. That show does not get enough love.
-
I got a lot of shock from star wars fans not expecting we sith this year but as for myself, seeing the guy from slightly anime cosplaying Spike from Buffy, made. my. life.
-
I saw a Jak from Jak three that was pretty sweet. Gordan Freeman, perfect to a T. The megaman kid was awesome too. OMG LIGER ZERO PANZER/GLOMP
-
Seeing a Kitaro from GeGeGe no Kitaro really made me smile. Yay for obscure anime! :D
-
- That single Okabe Rintaro who actually resembled the character in the face. That was SCIENCE.
- The eleven-year-old Tokyo Mew Mew girls were so adorable, they were starting to awaken my maternal instincts.
- Somehow I managed to see all three main characters of Mawaru-Penguindrum, though not all simultaneously.
- That Minami. I wish I could've bantered with her about how "Himeji is the winning girl."
- All them Brohous. And the adorable Flandre with very well-made wings.
Overall I had fun running around as Menma from AnoHana and Recette from Recettear. I really wish I could've stayed for Day 3 of the con.
-
A Mario block. Can't remember which one but it had eyes?
-
I don't think anyone expected the Jerry Statler and Conrad Waldorf cosplay.
They went Spanish inquisition on my ***.
They ran out of jokes during the Cosplay Chess, but every other time I saw them was hilarious. Brightened my day whenever I saw them.
SERIOUSLY! every time I saw them, I would stop everything I was doing so I could watch their adorable dances. ;~;
Wait, they danced? Only saw them once and thought it was cute enough already.
-
I was so happy to see Cave Johnson and Caroline while I was Chell. They even had combustible lemons and came over to give me hugs and pretend I was their long lost child. That made my day 1.
A Mario block. Can't remember which one but it had eyes?
I also caught a sonic ring box/computer, but I didn't have my camera at the time.
-

Thanks you guys, I am glad my Liger Zero Jager made your con! haha! And I was asked quite a bit, yes I indeed I am girl, a 20 year old girl haha! So many people were surprised. But thanks guys really this made me smile =]
Let's see as for me...it would have to be the other Mecha that was there, the grey robot, I have no idea what he was from but I was happy to see another mecha here.
You are amazing, just sayin'. How did you end up making your cosplay? I think it would be cool to do either Liger Zero Schnider or a Blade Liger one year, and your cosplay gave me the motivation to actually follow through on that :P
-
SERIOUSLY! every time I saw them, I would stop everything I was doing so I could watch their adorable dances. ;~;
Wait, they danced? Only saw them once and thought it was cute enough already.
Yes, they danced! I took a really shaky video of them from long distance I will eventually post to YouTube. ^_^
-
Did anybody else notice the cowboy on the fish in the park? He was there every morning around 8-9:00.
-
I was quite surprised to see that AnoHana group. They. Were. Awesome. I talked to Anaru for a bit, mostly about how much the anime made us b'aww.
And also, the two Nichijou cosplayers, the Nano and Hakase. I hung out with them in the karaoke room for a while, and they are just too adorable xD
-
Someone cosplayed as Kirino from Ore no imouto... yeeeeeeeeeeeess.
Aww man!
How did I not see this!? D:
-
The 6th Doctor was pretty surprising for me. I was expecting loads of 10's and 11's but 6 was very refreshing. Keep representing the old school, man.
-
I really did not expect to see Steve from Blue's Clues. xD I found it both funny and cute, though! When I saw him, he was asking people if they had seen Blue. And I'm still wondering if he ever did. xD
-
the creeper and black lady <3
-

lol I was that caroline. I was pleased to see chell as well and wheatley and I saw the adventure sphere Rick! Which brought out my portal fangirl-ness. I loved a lot of the cosplays this year, the chibi megaman and the mew mew girls were some of my favorites. That black star though was great. :)
-
Never in my life did I expect to see a Redead in person. Every time I saw them I ran away at the speed of light.

-
That full creeper. We spotted him once and were blown away but neither me or my brother had our cameras. I caught a picture later through a door to a crowded panel with him in the center and then was finally able to get a good one of him in the park. Some others included a full sonic the hedgehog costume, dugtrio, and an Adventure Time group.
-
Did anybody else notice the cowboy on the fish in the park? He was there every morning around 8-9:00.
OMG!!! What was up with that D: Every freaking time I looked over THERE HE WAS!!!!!!!!!!
-
I LOVED Statler and Waldorf! I just wish I could have seen them in person and listened to their jokes!
-
The Slenderman (He scared me everytime I saw him ;_;)
The Tokyo Mew Mew girls (I heard the Nyan Nyan Song and suddenly died from cuteness)
The Troll (So much winning)
Though I was sad I "couldn't" find the Carmen Sandiego.
-
Steve from Blue's Clues.
This! XD
And it has kind inspired me to cosplay Blue now :P
I really did not expect to see Steve from Blue's Clues. xD I found it both funny and cute, though! When I saw him, he was asking people if they had seen Blue. And I'm still wondering if he ever did. xD
Maybe next year? XD
-
The giant Kon mascot.That person was epic and brave to run around in that hot cosplay.Kudos to you,oh awesome person :D
-
The Nyan Girls that danced. They were soooo cute!
As for who I didn't expect but did see.... that Black Star that was shouting all the time in character was a very nice surprise. Uhm... Maybe I just didn't get out enough (can't handle the heat without feeling faint) or I've been to too many cons in the area.
Probably the Liger Zero Jager, off the top of my head. That was really nice to see and it was soooooo well done! ^^
Maybe the wedding Nia and Simon. I always saw them between crowds of people and at the contest, but I was surprised to see them.
*goes off to think hard*
-
JUSTIN BIEBER..And if that wasn't enough he was with a friend dressed in the exact same cosplay as I was wearing that day. *sigh* yeah.

In thought the big dancing Crow (don't know the anime or character) during the cosplay contest. the wings moved so well.

=DDDD
Hello.
Yeah, I saw the Rick, too! All we needed was a Space and Information core. There was a Spy with a Space Core mask, so I guess that works. I also heard there was a Doug Rattman, but I never saw him.
That Megaman was super cute. I think his father/guardian was an L cosplayer, because there was a point at which I saw the L pick up and carry the Megaman around. It was adorable.
-
In thought the big dancing Crow (don't know the anime or character) during the cosplay contest. the wings moved so well.
Did the crow's mouth move when she spoke, too? My friend said that she was from Princess Tutu.
-
know what else made my con? nova from bleach <3!!!
-
The only Nerima Daikon Brothers cosplayer, Hideki :3 That surprised and won me over instantly. Also, I was so in shock of the cutest Hunny Cosplayer ever for the Ouran Panel
-

Yeah the Raven is from Princess Tutu, yeah the mouth moved and they eyes were reflective.
I was the Mytho that danced with her in the contest and helped make the costume. Thanks for the appreciation, I will pass on the compliment
-
The cosplay I DID expect to see but did not was in fact a Sephiroth. There were none and it dissapointed me D=

I know! its like nobody cares about him anymore D=
-
I found a Rikimaru from Tenchu and got his picture. Apparently, I was the only person who knew who he was and what he was from.
-
mayafaye o////o i so didnt expect her <3
-
Chester A. Bum. Epic cosplay! Very curious if anyone else noticed him :D
-
some of the cosplays I was surprised to see were a Minami from Baka to Test,Tiger&Bunny,Anohana characters,Steve from Blues Clues (lol xD),and Creeper =D CREEPER WAS FREAKIN AWESOME!

So...you helped make the costume? You wouldn't happen to have a tutorial on how to make the head posted anywhere, would you?

This man, right here!

we don't have a tutorial of the head, as most of it was made at con (she procrastinated horribly) but I'm sure she'd be willing to talk you through what she did. And she does have a tutorial for the wings: http://sunnybrook1.deviantart.com/gallery/#/d2w7bwe

Statler and Waldorf
Billy Mays
Ox King (though just a glimpse of you before you turned into Barret soon after I believe)
Terra/Tina from final fantasy 3/6 (though I never got a picture and I don't think you heard my Kefka laugh while you were running by >.>)
Cosplay I expected but was surprised was NOT there: Momma's Boy Sephiroth
-
I was surprised to see some Toaru majutsu no Index cosplayers. It was great seen them cosplayers from one of my favorite series , I was hoping seeing Misaka Mikoto :/ maybe the next con I'll be lucky
-
This may seem strange, but I didn't expect to see two Liechtensteins. I knew there was going to be one, but I knew nothing of a second one that would also be with a Switzerland. THAT was unexpected to me...
OH. And the Grudge xD Shr was outside of my hotel room.
I was actually looking for her, but didn't see her at all... :'(
-
CHARMELEON. and the gantz cosplayer :D
-
I forgot about this one... Jubilee from X-Men. Rogue was great, but Jubilee was unexpected and appreciated. Very nicely done!
-
hazuma and nu-13 <3 i loved you guys i wish i had my camera when i saw them ;-;
-
I forgot about this one... Jubilee from X-Men. Rogue was great, but Jubilee was unexpected and appreciated. Very nicely done!
I agree!! And seeing the old Rouge was great because she was fun in that version. Now she's goth. I still like her but I love her more as her original bright yellow and green spandex southern self lol
-
^ agreed on both accounts. Jubilee also used bubble gum as a prop, which was pretty awesome.
-
What I didn't expect to see at Con? The Silence Cosplayer. From the 1969 era Episode of the New season. I was freaked out anytime I saw the cosplayer. Mostly stuck around the edges of the park, and to the shadows. I don't even think they had a badge. BUt I made a bloody check mark on my arm, every time I saw them. 18 times! 18!
-
^ agreed on both accounts. Jubilee also used bubble gum as a prop, which was pretty awesome.
I agree. That was a great prop. It exploded in her face when she was trying to prepare a shot for me, though. Whoops.
-
SHESSOMARU! 8D I really don't like the Inuyasha anime, but that cosplay was FANTASTIC!

Yeah, I don't really care too much for the goth style. It's better than the extreme Southern Belle that Anna Paquin did for the movies, but the goth still pales compared to the green & yellow spandex version.
-
Goths are offended everywhere by the thought of you comparing them to that emo version ;D
-
SHESSOMARU! 8D I really don't like the Inuyasha anime, but that cosplay was FANTASTIC!
WHERE?!?! How did I miss that?!?! :(

Are you talking about the one from the 90's? Yes, I've seen that one, and she was no "Southern Belle." She may have had the accent, but she was a brawler, which means she wasn't a Belle. They were ladies.

Definitely no argument there! They are one of the best comic pairings ever, in my opinion.

That one kinda grossed me out, because I'd always seen Wolverine as a sort of uncle figure for her...
...we're getting kinda off topic here.
I was a little surprised to see how many Ranma 1/2 characters there were this year; is that series starting to make another comeback, or something?
-
^ Sorry, but this really needs to go to PM.
-
i'd have to say mantun neptune and uranus are two of my fav charaters ever and seeing a man cosplay her was just ammazing and perfect role and his uranus was amamzing and good job in it <3
-
Sorry ^^;;
I didnt expect to see as many Medusa's as I did.
