All right, I've waited long enough for someone else to do this. xD I know I'm not the only YGO fan out here! I met some last year!

So, the question is: are you cosplaying from a YuGiOh series? Any of them? (Original/DM? GX? 5D's?)

...And do you want a photoshoot that will actually happen this year?

----

As for me, my cosplays are almost all related in some way. (There's only one on this year's to-do list that isn't! xD) I'm planning on Izayoi Aki from 5D's (dub name: Akiza Izinski), Rally Dawson from 5D's, and Mana from the original.

But clearly, I love YuGiOh and would be ridiculously happy to see more of it around the con. Especially in the form of a photoshoot - the one at SakuraCon was a lot of fun! (A meetup is Fine Too~)

Uh. YGO-ers Unite?

Nooooo Fair. T_T I wasn't on planning on cosplaying from yugioh till 2010. And I'll have a group then too. But I can't wait to see you. I haven't really seen any yugioh cosplayer at k-con really.

I'm glad we both share the love of the series though. <3

I'm planning on being either Thief King Bakura or Atemu. The only concern I have for Atemu is the wig.....

I have my Millennium ring all made too

tofutakeout · « **Reply #3 on:** April 24, 2009, 08:24:27 pm »

your right. The wig is quite a toughy, but I've seen some people do it. With lots of effort and hair spray like a S.O.B. XD

Yea, there was a really good Yami at SC '08. She even had the red eye contacts-- and the spiked hair looked like her real hair. She was also super skinny like him @_@...

I think if I'm going to be Atemu, I have to make absolutely sure I'm going to wear it XD

tofutakeout · « **Reply #5 on:** May 02, 2009, 09:14:31 am »

Ah yeah I saw pictures of her. she was really amazing. ^_^

Thats why I'm so happy I chose to do Kaiba. His only issue is his coat. X_X

Kagome219 · « **Reply #7 on:** May 10, 2009, 02:11:40 pm »

I would reeeeeeeally want to do either Ryou or Anzu, but not this year. >.o Sorry! Hopefully 2010.

Kagome219 · « **Reply #9 on:** May 11, 2009, 10:16:32 am »

"FRIENDSHIP IS THE BEST THING EVER! DON'T YOU AGREE! (Darn it!)"

Ohhhhhh yeah. I have Anzu down pretty darn well. ; D

tofutakeout · « **Reply #10 on:** May 11, 2009, 11:13:42 am »

oooooh yeaaaaah. I think/hope I have seto kaiba down pretty well. lol XD

I wish I could be seto this year so badly. This is so saddening!

Kagome219 · « **Reply #11 on:** May 11, 2009, 11:16:24 am »

Next year then? >.<

tofutakeout · « **Reply #12 on:** May 11, 2009, 11:23:18 am »

why yes please.

I'm happy there's going to be an anzu. :3 none of my friends wanted to be her. :/

Kagome219 · « **Reply #13 on:** May 11, 2009, 11:36:26 am »

Awesome! Then I'll be Anzu. (A really short Anzu... xB)
But she's sooooooo annoying-rific! 8D
And what other characters do you guys have so far?

tofutakeout · « **Reply #14 on:** May 11, 2009, 11:42:31 am »

Well I tend to have flaky friends so I'm not sure if all those that we have will stay that way.

We have a seto, a mokuba, a shadi, a mako tsunami, The "attention duelist's" guy, a possible yami, and a possible jou. I really hope to have a jou by then, I don't think my friend will do it. :/ I still have some friends that are pondering whether or not they want to do it. but I have a goal to get the whole cast in one setting at one time. main roles and minors. XD

Kagome219 · « **Reply #15 on:** May 11, 2009, 11:54:34 am »

Aw, well I really, really hope it works out. : D

That's sooooo awesome! And even a Kemo (Attention Duelist's guy)? xD That rocks! If you and the rest of the boards could gather a cast, that would be great! Ryuo/Yami Bakura and Marik/Yami Marik are also a must have. ; D Ooh, ooh! And a Sugoroku! 8D

tofutakeout · « **Reply #16 on:** May 11, 2009, 11:56:52 am »

I know! we have to have those guys, but either no one wants to be them or the person who does can't really pull it off well. DX lol

wait....I think one friend said she wanted to be sugoroku. She could pull off the look but maybe not the acting. We'll work on it.

Kagome219 · « **Reply #17 on:** May 11, 2009, 12:00:02 pm »

No one wants to be Bakura or Marik? D8 That's, like, impossible! They can be played by girls even easier than boys, actually. >.o

And okay. xD And are we going for the actual YuGiOh series acting, Abridged acting, or some sort of mixture? xD

tofutakeout · « **Reply #18 on:** May 11, 2009, 12:05:15 pm »

Yes they can but the girls that I'm asking or that want to cosplay from the series are like "I want to strictly be a girl". which only leaves anzu, serenity, mai valentine, and that little girl rebecca. oh and dark magician girl if their up to it. but I really just want the actual cast that talks and cracks jokes.

I was thinking a mixture, because THEN it shall be the best thing EVAH.

Kagome219 · « **Reply #19 on:** May 11, 2009, 12:16:28 pm »

Aw, man. Well if it comes down to it and you still need a Ryou Bakura, let me know. I can always be a "pretty British boy". : D And then one of your friends could be Anzu. I'm pretty lenient when it comes to YuGiOh characters. xD

Yes. Yes it would. D8

tofutakeout · « **Reply #20 on:** May 11, 2009, 12:18:53 pm »

awesome. Well we still have a year. I'm keeping track now of who said what about who they'd be. And I'm going to ask them periodically if they'll still be them. I hope we get someone for every character. -crosses fingers- x<

Kagome219 · « **Reply #21 on:** May 11, 2009, 12:32:07 pm »

All right. That sounds like a plan in work. I do too. I can also check with some of my friends. >.o

GwarNekoChan · « **Reply #22 on:** May 11, 2009, 03:10:27 pm »

Oh man, I loved Yu-Gi-Oh. xDDDD
I might go as a GX Character Next year, or even 5'Ds. o:

Carly looks interesting...
and... So does Chazz/Jun Majome. xDD So, maybe next year. 8D

Kagome219 · « **Reply #23 on:** May 11, 2009, 04:13:51 pm »

Yay! More YuGiOh! characters. : D
My favorite is the original series, but GX and 5D's aren't too bad either. o:

tofutakeout · « **Reply #24 on:** May 11, 2009, 05:08:57 pm »

Yusei says "Don't duel and drive." The guy at s-con with that sign was so funny. XD

I've never really been able to get into GX or 5D's but hey it's not all bad. I freaked when I saw "joey wheeler's cousin." X_X

Syrus is just like Yugi's appearance, basically. xD

This is where I saw it and was like "no way." When did joey get a cousin? WHO LOOKS EXACTLY LIKE HIM TOO? 80

Wow. That's strange. xDD Really similar.

tofutakeout · « **Reply #29 on:** May 11, 2009, 06:15:26 pm »

except the hair and glasses. And I love joey's oddly gravitating hair! <3 XD

Man I'm too obsessed with yugioh. >_> I love this series way to much.

lol I know right? except I think it face is also more angular. They really only have a few similarities.

And this is what I get for disappearing for a while. xD Three pages.

Aww~ Sounds like most of the planning is for 2010, huh? Well, by the looks of my cosplay to do list, I'll have new YGO cosplays for the next three cons or so. xD Expect me to be someone next year, too. =]

~~(And please support me and my 'seriesmates' in our endeavor into the minority this year! <3)~~

tofutakeout · « **Reply #34 on:** May 13, 2009, 06:29:25 pm »

Don't worry I'll love any YGO cosplayers I see for the rest of my life. XD

We did do quite a bit of chatting didn't we? lol

Kagome219 · « **Reply #35 on:** May 13, 2009, 08:47:37 pm »

I'll watch out for you as well, Kotoumi. :3

And we sure did. xD

GwarNekoChan · « **Reply #36 on:** May 13, 2009, 09:27:39 pm »

I'm hoping a Jack will be there... >w> xDD
Surely I'll take pictures this year too! xD

Kagome219 · « **Reply #37 on:** May 13, 2009, 09:29:22 pm »

Squallity · « **Reply #38 on:** May 15, 2009, 05:45:42 am »

This year will be my first Kumoricon, and I plan on cosplaying Ryou Bakura this year. I have been thinking that people would be looking at me funny, because they probably did not think that people cosplayed as Yu-Gi-Oh characters anymore. It would be funny, you know? "Look, it is that one guy from that one show, back when I was, like, five! Yu-Gi-Oh! Yeah, that show!"

Most of my friends do not even know that there are multiple series, and none of my friends will even be going to the convention with me, so I will be kind of alone. That is why I am really hoping to be able to volunteer.

Currently, I am actually working on my Millenium Ring. Even though I know that it will not be as good as any other Bakura's, it is still fun to make, even though it is not very "professional" looking. This is my first cosplay, too, after all.

I hope to be volunteering this year, but, either way, I also hope to be meeting lots of people, especially many Yu-Gi-Oh cosplayers. Don't be scared if someone dressed as Ryou comes up and says "hello" and runs off, or asks for your autograph, or pictures, or a hug, or something. I am shy, but I am hyperactive and fairly amusing.

Kagome219 · « **Reply #39 on:** May 15, 2009, 06:50:16 am »

Actually, a lot of people still do Yu-Gi-Oh! characters. It's starting to sort of become more popular, actually. Lol.

Also, watch out for Bakura fan girls. xD I might actually be one, myself, so be on the look out for people asking YOU for pictures. ^^

One more thing is, enjoy your first Kumoricon! I'm sure you'll have a blast. : D

tofutakeout · « **Reply #40 on:** May 15, 2009, 05:44:29 pm »

My friend told me yugioh was bad for my health and that I should go for "magic:The gathering" instead. XP

uh NO. >_>

but yay for Bakura! It's limey man to the rescue! XD "I'm here to kick ass and drink cups of tea....and I'm all out of tea."

Kagome219 · « **Reply #41 on:** May 15, 2009, 10:02:53 pm »

Magic: The Gathering vs. Yu-Gi-Oh!... PSHAH! That's fiddle sticks! D: <

For the rest of us: "it'll be like hanging out with the Jonas Brothers. >3>"

Kotoumi · « **Reply #42 on:** May 16, 2009, 11:10:50 am »

Akesukeru ~ Thanks to the Abridged Series and 5D's, there are getting to be more of us. xD Good idea cosplaying to your first con, though, you'll have an epic time! (Especially as Ryou, I hear they get stopped a lot for pictures and things.)
Also, I'll probably be likely to flip out over any other YGO cosplayers I see so don't worry, I won't be scared at all. Maybe a little shy, but not scared. ;D

As for 2010, there'll definitely be an Aki there *points to self* and possibly a Divine to go along with her~ If I get that done for my friend, who agreed to do it because Divine is totally her favorite character from 5D's. (And eventually I'll be trying for one of his cards, Magical Android. She's a toughy and will require much wonderflex.)

...I am excited.

And pssssh, Magic. Nothing is nerdier than YuGiOh! (And it has more "proud to be" nerds, from what I've seen.)

tofutakeout · « **Reply #43 on:** May 16, 2009, 11:22:30 am »

yeah that's for sure.

oh you made me remember that at some point I want to do a yugioh card as well.

It'd be extremely hard but so much fun. XD

Kagome219 · « **Reply #44 on:** May 16, 2009, 01:36:14 pm »

Awesome! I can't wait until 2010. xD

And the Change of Heart is Bakura's favorite card. : D

tofutakeout · « **Reply #45 on:** May 16, 2009, 03:11:24 pm »

Exactly. XD <3

I don't like any of the other cards really. I mean the favorites. dark magician is okay but....meh.

I wanted to know who's your guy's favorite characters?

I guess it can be from any one of the series.

Kagome219 · « **Reply #46 on:** May 16, 2009, 03:19:58 pm »

I was more of the Pokemon girl when I was younger, so I never got into the Yu-Gi-Oh! card game. >.o I actually just got into Yu-Gi-Oh! like a year ago. xD

Favorite character? Hm... That's hard. I guess I'll say the generic ones are Ryou, Anzu, and Jonouchi. xD Oh! And I also like Mokuba. 8D

tofutakeout · « **Reply #47 on:** May 16, 2009, 03:25:58 pm »

I never really liked pokemon. I think I always was a yugioh kid but I was the kid that knew about it but never really liked it. I got into it about 2-3 years ago....or something like that. I can't remember for sure.

Sweet!

Those are some of my faves as well. <3 My favorite is mokuba though, second is jou, and third is seto.

Kotoumi · « **Reply #48 on:** May 16, 2009, 04:33:56 pm »

Honestly, I just started liking YuGiOh in 2006. :D This is the longest I've been in a fandom, ever.

As for my favorite characters, I tend to like those I cosplay or want to cosplay...

For DM it's mostly Yuugi, Pharaoh, and Mana. Mostly because the only story arcs I've watched fully are through Duelist Kingdom and Memory World. xD Also Marik - the good side. He's such a sweetie in the Japanese version. |D

For 5D's (I never watched GX. Couldn't get into it), I like Aki, Ruka, Divine, Crow, Yuusei...the list goes on and on.

On the subject of the card game: I suck at it unless it's a video game. xD I'm pretty okay if it's Nightmare Troubadour, Sacred Cards, and now Stardust Accelerator - except that's the one I have in Japanese and my winning is pure luck.
(But my favorite cards are Black Rose Dragon, Spirit of the Breeze, and Magical Android!)

tofutakeout · « **Reply #49 on:** May 16, 2009, 05:23:15 pm »

oooh you've played nightmare troubadour? how is it? I really want to buy it but I'm not sure if I'll like it.

I agree with you on good marik. He's just to sweet. <3
