    Thats one cosplay for sure I plan on doing. I don't know if I'm going to con yet but , fingers are crossed.

    I'd love to do Death the Kid, Young Grell and Honey-sempai.

    Well, Anime Expo in Los Angeles, CA is more than 6 months away and haven't solidified a cosplay choice yet. However, the idea of a crossplay has interested me. I'll most likely use my Hibari Kyoya cosplay from Hitman Reborn again, but I want to add at least one more.
  • Hope to do Major Sakamoto from Strike Witches by Otakon in August! If I can stick to my plan and lose 30+ pounds by then, then I totally can. (: Good luck to everyone!
  • I've actually lost about 24 lbs and am going as three versions of Saber from Fate/Stay Night to Sakuracon (Seattle) in March. I would like to lose a few more pounds to fit into the costumes better, but I want to finally cosplay (as I am already 25). I tell myself if I lose weight, then I will get my costumes again in a smaller size (since I buy them).

    I know I'll be self conscious, but I just want to have fun.

    Sakura con sounds like so much fun! I'll be big as a house then though, and will probably have a baby a week after, so I'll have to wait until 2014's.
  • I'll be at Pax East and Pax Prime and I want to go to NYCC.

    Definitely Attending:
    Setsucon
    Otakon

    There's a ton others I'd like to get to like Katsucon, or NYCC. Maybe AnimeNext.

    I have no idea what costumes I'm doing though XD I'm just working on things and if they get finished, they go.
  • This alll sound so amazing ! Oh I wish I lived in the US, I seems like you have so many cons to choose from

    Good luck to all of you guys! Your cosplays sound amazing, and I can't wait to see pictures!

    I'll be attending Youmacon in Michigan, and I'm hoping to cosplay as Lulu from Final Fantasy X, and Mistress 9 from Sailor Moon pending weight loss and funds. :)
  • Planned conventions/Cosplays for the year:

    Ohayocon, Columbus, OH / Appa kigurumi (Avatar the Last Airbender), Nintendo 3DS Mii
    Almacon, Alma, MI / nothing new planned
    Katsucon, National Harbor, MD / Tohru (Fruits Basket)
    Animarathon, Bowling Green, OH / Tomoyo (Card Captor Sakura)
    Shutocon, Lansing, MI / nothing new planned
    Otakon, Baltimore, MD / Saki (Eden of the East), Someone from Code Geass. Not sure who, will depend on my weight loss at the time
    Youmacon, Detroit. MI / Nothing planned YET but will probably have something new for this

    My BF and I also made it our goal to make Asuka and Shinji plugsuits when we both meet our weight-loss goals. We are going to Japan in May and would like to have them by then so we can take pictures at Eva World, but I'm not sure if we will be ready to pull them off yet by that point. So they may end up being for Youmacon.
  • I only have October London Expo planned; have two Homestuck cosplay groups. I'm going to be Horuss in a Dancestor Sailor Scout group (gotta lift a lot of weights!) and Roxy in a Trickster Alphas group. Whenever I lose more weight, though, I hope to be Elesa from Pokemon, in her Black/White outfit :)

    Aw man I'd love to do Judith some day but I'm so self conscious about exposing my midriff. Hope to see yours at Otakon though :)

    This year I'll be at: Katsucon, Momocon, Aselia con, Project Akon, Anime Expo, Otakon, Dragon*con, and Anime Weekend Atlanta.

    Hoping to get costumes together for Rikku (Final Fantasy X-2), Fayt (Star Ocean 3), Locke (Final Fantasy 6), Lelouch (Code Geass)... heavens knows what else. I'm only doing 4 new costumes for Katsucon. Speaking of, I should be sewing, I only have a week left.
