Word source

COSPLAY is the abbreviation of COSTUMEPLAY, which refers to putting on costumes of various characters and acting as characters in works, including animation, comics, video games, visual orchestras, puppet shows in Taiwan Province Province and so on. Role-playing began in Japan. The starting point of dressing up is to love the characters in each work, and through role-playing, let the characters who originally existed only in the imaginary world appear in the real world. The first people who play cosplay are all because they love those who are in the second dimension and want them to appear in the third dimension, and also because they want to satisfy their dreams of being close to the people they like.

main distinction

However, if you just wear a certain kind of clothing (Lolita, ancient costume, etc. ), it can't be called COSPLAY, it can only be called cross-string. Similarly, people who only do this kind of behavior can't be called COSER, but can only be called "transvestite". In fact, the meaning of COSPLAY's inclusion and dressing up is not only an external visualization, but more importantly, understanding the inner heart of COSPLAY's objects.
