Just wondered if any particular characters inspire you to be fit and active. Maybe it's just me,but I seriously doubt it! haha Somehow...most of mine are guys though. T-T

Anyway, add a pic or list the character name and series, maybe tell us why that character inspires you!


*will add pics/name after work*

    Goku - DBZ (Who wouldn't want to go saiyajin at the gym)
    Ranma - Ranma 1/2 (grabbing all dem chestnuts)

    From Naruto - Momochi Zabuza (He WILL be my first ever cosplay when I get to my first Con. - need to make the abs solid and get one hell of a wig, cause my hair be GONE!)

    From Bleach - Zaracki Kenpachi - Cause come on, just pure brute strength!!!

    From Dragon Ball Z - Goku (duh) - just because I want to undergo King Kai's special training on his little planet at the end of Snake Way while inside the Hyperbolic Time Chamber!!!! Just think about it....leave the office on Friday a fat *kitten*, return Monday morning doing one handed pushups with just one finger and with a body that would make my wife melt any...plus have the ability to put away enough food to feed an army!

    Trying to revive this thread, lol.

    My original motivation to work out is Mari Makinami Illustrious, from Evangelion 2.22. Before the movie came out and they showed promotional shots of her pink plugsuit, I immediately knew that I *HAD* to cosplay her! I even have the pink fabric still.... but I never lost the 20 pounds that I needed to feel comfortable wearing such an unforgiving form-fitting suit.

    Right now, I think the ultimate cosplay fitness challenge would be Matoi Ryuuko in her Kamui Senketsu transformation. Washboard abs and the yoga-butt-to-end-all-butts is an absolute for that outfit! :O

    Personally, I think it's a shame very few seemingly strong and fit female characters are visually depicted as such. Examples of that short list are Canaan and Alphard.

    I will 2nd this one! She is definitely a strong woman. I haven't seen a LOT of Fairy Tail (Hubby and my brother in law refuse to watch it with me) but what I have seen is good.

    Naruto Uzumaki cause if he could not tackle the problem with thought, he would tackle it head on (literally) :bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile:

    From the anime Naruto: Itachi Uchiha inspiers me to become fitter!! I am finishing up P90X and about to go for another round. We aren't stopping till we get to the main goal.

    For some strange reason Itachi really inspires me to get healthier, give it my all. I think of what a strong character he is and I want to be just as agile.

    Ah!! Something may be wrong with my browser, the toolbar is not visible to post! I at least hope most people know Naruto -_-

    I havent actually seen this one but its closer to the sport Im actually doing so maybe I should.

    otherwise I was gonna say Ginga e Kickoff, Prince of Tennis, Attack no 1, Battle Athletes, or something with Kendo... seems like most series involve a character working towards self improvement though.... whatever it is they are trying to excel in. (hikaru no go, yakitate japan, princess tutu, honey and clover, whispers of the heart)

    I'm not so sure if any one character inspires me but a series sure can. My two fitness inspiring ones would probably be sword art online, and kenichi... Then again fairy tail, bleach, naruto, and inuyasha were good for it back when they were new to me, I might even go back and watch them because of this thread :happy:

    My inspirations, I would have to say....

    Goku and Vegeta (DBZ) As others have mentioned the ability to power up and kick some *kitten* would be great.

    Kamina (Gureen Lagaan) The man was the absolute pillar of positivity, pushed for a better tomorrow, and wouldn't allow any one to doubt themselves. If I may, a quote: "Listen up, Simon. Don't believe in yourself. Believe in me! Believe in the Kamina who believes in you!"
    Kamina is one of my all time favorite Anime characters.

    The character that FINALLY inspired me was Allen Walker from D.Gray-man... I just love the series and the character so much I want to cosplay it, but I want to feel like I look good cosplaying him too.

    I want lose enough weight to do Allen by 2016.
    Hopefully my chest gets small enough to bind so I can pass as a boy XD

    Major Kusanagi. I mean, I'd have to become a cyborg, but I think I'm okay with that.

    Literally anyone from Bleach and Naruto.

    Rock Lee forever.
    "If I can't do 1,000 push ups, I'll do 1,000 squats. If I can't do 1,000 squats, I'll run 1,000 laps. If I can't. . ." etc. ;)

    Literally the entire team from Free!... Like seriously, as soon as I started watching the series, I felt this powerful urge to get back to swimming...

    I would kill to be as toned as those guys are.
