    I don't do cosplay but I've watched a lot of cosplay already.. make sure you make you cosplay outfit better than others and more attractive if you are going to join a cosplay competition.

    Cosplay means costume play. You literally dress up as your favorite character, from an anime most of the time, and go to conventions to meet up with fellow fans.

    kinda like Star Trek conventions in TV shows? or comic book conventions... where everyone dresses up like Capt. America and Superman?
