Getting fit for Cosplaying
Replies

I like anime. And I've made cosplay costumes for my kids.
But I wouldn't say I'm such a huge fan that I would use it for motivation. It's kind of awesome that you have something so unique to motivate your fitness efforts.
You can add me if you like.0 -
OP - I saw your profile pic and thought you should cosplay Vamp from the Metal Gear Solid series.0

My plan is to get fit enough to do Nora or Masane from Witchblade, and about a dozen others, but that is my first goal.
I'm thinking ComicCon San Diego 2015. I would do anything to go back!0 -
Hai!! I'm in the same boat as you ^_^ one of my biggest motivations for becoming fit is for cosplaying. I have a million of characters I wana play as, i just need the body to do it ;30

Hi! I've been cosplaying for about 2 years now,I think...
But i've been wanting to cosplay some really awesome characters so that's one reason (but not the main reason) I want to get fit.
So,feel free to add me n.n We could motivate and help each other0 -
I have done some cosplay, but after seeing just how terrible I looked from being out of shape I cried and deleted all evidence. Once I am good shape I think the first one I am going to do is The Enchanter of Elegies from shakugan no shana. That is one of my all time favorites.0

Oh! that would be a good one!0 -
I'm not into it. The topic interested me as I know a girl who is into this & I wished that she would lose xx amount of weight before she squeezed into her ghastly costume!! As horrible as I sound, some people just don't need to see certain things!
Good luck with your weight loss & I hope you enjoy cosplaying as the character you have chosen.0 -
I'm not really into anime, but I've always wanted to cosplay. Maybe as someone from BBC Sherlock, Doctor Who, or Rise of the Guardians. The only anime I've really enjoyed so far is Death Note.
Anyways, congrats on starting your 'journey'. I think it's cosplaying is something fantastic to look forward to and use as motivation.0 -
Other than Ghost in the Shell I'm not into anime, but I do love me some cosplay, so add me if you would like.0

Getting fit for Cosplay is such epic motivation! I am an avid manga reader/anime watcher. I enjoy Naruto, Black Butler, and Full Metal Alchemist. I am also really into video games! My favorites are(xbox of course) Skyrim, Boderlands, The Reckoning and Minecraft. I have not had the pleasure of going to Comic Con yet, but hopefully I will get the chance to this summer in Las Cruces!!

OHHHH my goodness I think I just found the best message board post EVER.
I am a MASSIVE cosplayer My boyfriend and I are currently creating a Kirito/Asuna duo (Sword Art Online), an Edea and Seifer duo (Final Fantasy VIII), and a Yuna and Tidus duo (Final Fantasy X).
We met when I was cosplaying as Summoner Yuna this past year at Anime Boston. Boys, if you ever want to win a girl cosplayer's heart, just tell her she's the prettiest -insert character here- in the entire convention. It worked for me and my sweetheart!
Oh dear god I need more cosplaying friends on here. Friend meeeee!!!0 -
I want to cosplay as Kratos from the God of War series once I get to my goal body.0

There is no bad reason to want to get in better physical condition/lose weight. The investment in your health and fitness will pay dividends besides making you look more "screen accurate". I wish you good journey toward your cosplay goals. :drinker:
I love cosplay too, but I'm getting a bit on the old side to cosplay these days. I need to find some "age appropriate" female characters to cosplay at some point, but most female characters in science fiction/fantasy are young. I am not into anime, but cosplay is cosplay, as far as I'm concerned. It's all in good fun, and I wish people weren't so harsh in their criticism of cosplayers who don't have a perfect physique. it's just supposed to be fun.0 -
I'm an anime fan, and I love going to conventions. Which I plan on cosplaying, and as my username says "Fitness for Reiner".
I plan on getting into shape to cosplay Reiner from the Attack On Titan anime.
i'm actually looking for people to add on here, people who are interested in games or anime. People to share motivation, support, and friendship.
I plan on losing about 85lbs, but I'm not just losing this weight just for cosplaying. I want to feel better and look better, I want a healthier life style. Cosplaying is my motivation, my goal.
Haha as soon as I read your cosplaying idea, I immediately heard the first season intro music in my head - which is badass might I add.0 -

I can think of a ton but I'm not familiar with anime so I'd have to settle for tv/movies like River Song, Ellen Ripley, Dana Scully, Bree from GoT, Zoe from Firefly, etc. I've totally blanked out on book examples though, I think I've been reading too many YA novels.0
