- I am going to an anime convention in september and i bought my cosplay costume off ebay. It's an Angel Sanctuary one, Alexiel. I really love the charecter but her costume is so revealing!

You get what i am saying? It's the whole leg thing. And it also looks like.. you know.. a man's fantasy.
But i feel that if i don't wear it, or if i make adjustments like not wearing the eings or the golden cross or wear grey stokcings underneath, i'd be defying the point of cosplaying my 3rd fave charecter of AS!
(first being Setsunna but he's a guy so wont cosplay him, 2nd being Lucifer/Kira Sakuya but same problem.  )
SO what do you guys suggest i do?
Wear the costume, no matter how revealing?
Adjust the costume so it is not too revealing?
Any other suggestiong?
I would really appreciate your help or comments etc.  in my opinion, i think that it shouldn't had been bought off of ebay if you find it to be too revealing now... i know, i know "shoulda, coulda, woulda" there's nothing you can really do now, but i think that it is pretty revealing ... so, if you think you wouldn't resell it on ebay, then make some adjustments to make it more wholesome looking. i think that you could change costumes, but if you don't want to you certainly do not have to... all i'm saying is that it's your decision to wear it, adjust it, or not wear it at all...(no pressure or anything! ) let me know what you think of the advice! ~Ishiko | |

| Holla! I'm back!  :D
OKay so i'll tell you about my weekend... very action packed.. and some of it won't be in order but oh well.
Day 1
Took the last day off school. I flew down to sydney by myself and there was lots of turbulance *scary!* but i survived . My grandparents picked me up, we ahd lunch then went to thier place. Hours later my friend, Saucey, came to pick me up.
She ran out of her car and glomped me so hard i almost smashed into a tree! xD Her friend Anna was staying with my friend over the weekend.
Day 2:
I woke up reeeallly early because i was too excited. Once anna and i had pillow-walloped Saucey enough to make her wake up, we got ready to go to animania! None of us were game enough to go to the con dressed in our cosplays, so we packed them in our bags. My wings wouldn't fit in my shoulder bag so i had to carry them. lol!
When we got there, we pulled out our pre-ordered tickets - so good we pre-ordered; there was a massive que for non-ordered tickets! Once we entered, we headed straight for the bathroom and changed.
As soon as we were all dressed up, we left the bathroom and went to the first room. It was a big room split in two: the first space filled with busy buyers and stall holders, the second space packed with eager gamers!
We walked around looking at all the things for sale first and i lost my friends for a moment while i was staring at all the glorious manga! xD
I found them again, and we decided we'd stick together by keeping hold of eachother's bags like a chain. (During this event we took photos of all the cosplayers we recognised)
Once we had a good look around at the stalls, and had bought a few things, we went to the second space. Anna and i had a lot of trouble trying to drag Saucey away from the people playing Halo 3 on the Xbox 360!
-inturruption-
i forgot to say before:
Anna cosplayed Edward Elric from Full Metal Alchemist
Saucey cosplayed Suisekei (not 100% sure on spelling there) from Rozen Maiden
and i cosplayed Alexiel from Angel Sanctuary
-continue-
People were playing on the Wii, on the nintendo 64, on the gamecube, on the ps1 and 2. I didn't see a ps3 though.. woudl loved to see one up close. There was also two of those things *cant remember name* were you have to dance in the right sequence by stepping on the arrows. We saw some cosplayers dancing, and there was this ... thing that neither of us recognised from any anime or manga or game... anyways, he had a black but of material over his face and was having a lot of trouble seeing!
I got a big fright when he got off and turned around, appeared to be looking straight at me, then these big red lights turned on like eyes! I jumped so high! xD
So we had a good look around floor 1. Next was floor 2! We headed up the marble staircase and passed a hallway. We entered this massive hall with a stage where artists were dueling as the best. There were heaps of seats infront of the stage and just enough space for artists to set up stalls at the back of the hall, selling their merch. Behind those stalls were a stack of computers with these drawing pads connected to them. Looking over people's shoulders, i got so jelous! lol, compared to what i saw, i'm not very good at drawing! xD
There was one artist stall selling yaoi thing, and i sooned learned that Saucey didn't like yaoi at all! Everytime we passed it she'd speed up a bit and look away.
On the 3rd floor was just a hallway with doors entering to a loft where you could sit and watch the stage from above.
Throughout the day, we moved between floor 1 and 2, and occasionally floor 3 to watch the cosplay catwalks and skits on the stage below.
Day 2 purchases:
1 x Ouran High Host Club vol 2 (couldnt find 1st one! noo!)
1 x Vampire Knight vol 1
1 x Fruits Basket vol 9
1 x Animania badge
2 x Dumplings *druels*
1 x Bottle of water
Day 3 next post + cosplayers seen. | |

| Day 3
Woke up really early again and discussed with Anna for what anime and charecter would be funny if somebody cosplayed. Eventually, Saucey woke up and we got ready.
We arrive at Animania earlier than the day before and Saucey and Anna headed straight for the plushie stalls. They heard a rumour from their Animania friend worker that there was a stall selling Cloud plushies. To their disappointment, they didn't find one, so we changed into our cosplays in the bathroom.
From the day before, we knew where everything was so today was a big spending day. There were less people on Sunday than on Saturday which was kinda good but Saucey and Anna were sad they didn't see any Clouds on the second day (saw 4 Clouds on the first day of Animania).
We didn't stay for the cosplay skits or cosplay catwalks though, leaving at 4.30pm, but it was still a good day.
Positivies:
+ Bought heaps of anime and manga that i couldnt find on ebay or in the stores close by
+ got a discount on the manga
+ saw an Xbox 360 in action
+ saw heaps of cosplayers and even recognised some BEFORE anna! xD
+ had an awesome time!
+ Animania showed screenings of anime, such as Death Note, which was awesome
+ got heaps of pictures of cosplayers
Negatives:
- A creepy guy with green in his hair and was cosplayed as a cat, came up to me and said 'im a cat and your a person with wings aka a bird. i'm going to eat you *made eating noises then hugs me*'. he needed B.O. urgently. Saw him both days and freaked me out both days.
- The creepy guy caught Anna in the corner of the staircase and we bailed on her and was yelled at afterwards. -_- oops
- A guy who was FullyMA obsessed kept coming up to Anna and quizing her about it. One time they had a full on fight but we dragged Anna away which she was later thankful for.
- i ran out of money
- I didn't see a Setsunna to glomp 
- Didn't see one single Angel Sanctuary merchandise
- I got two massive blisters on my big toes from my boots
- The first floor had bad ventilation and smelt like sweat (got used to it though)
- The place was packed on the first day and was really hot
- It ended too fast!
- We have to wait a whole year for it to come again! >_<
Day 3 purchases:
1 x Bottle of water
1 x Can of Solo
1 x Dumplings
1 x Ouran High Host Club vol 1 (got it first thing! score!)
3 x Vampire Knight (vol 2, 3, 4)
1 x Complete collection of She, the Ultimate Weapon DVD
1 x Noir featured lunchbox (no more times when my food wil empty out on the ground! oh the dismay of the broken tin lunch box)
3 x Fruits Basket badges
1 x Kyo featured bookmark
1 x Totoro t-shirt
1 x Wrist band from artist stall
