Misconception term

Situation 1:
An otaku watch anime;

Otaku: *Enjoy with what he/she watching*


so sudden his/her fella or roommate enter their room


Fella: You too old for watching cartoon...


Otaku: *Shocked with 'cartoon' term* This is not cartoon, this is anime! You know, anime! Anime!


Fella: Whatever...


Situation 2:
A cosplayer wear their costume & do cosplay hangout;

Noob 1: Wuuuuu~~ What's that? K-pop.


Cosplayer: Idiot, this is cosplay not K-pop style.


Noob 2: Eeeuuwww... Weirdo.


Cosplayer: This is not weirdo, this is cosplay.


Situation 3:
An otaku read manga;

Fella: Read comic?


Otaku: This is not comic, this is manga. *face palm*


**~**~**~**~**                 **~**~**~**~**

Okay, for this time I will shared about public misconception term about this three term. Anime, Manga & Cosplay (Lucky game is still called a game *chuckled*).

A few days ago, one of most popular singer in my country having a birthday party to celebrate her birthday. So she decided to use cosplay theme in her party and she wear Hatsune Miku costume. Then, as we know... media... bla.. bla... bla... use wrong term in their report then they make all the otakus & cosers become mad in social media. The most worst part is what the relationships between Hatsune Miku & Sailormoon? People said Hatsune Miku is Sailormoon and Sailormoon is Hatsune Miku *face palm* Haihhh... How terrible is it?

Okay, to reduce all the otakus & cosers rage. I'll help public how to use right term. Let's start from what is the different between Anime & Cartoon term.

Anime& Cartoon:

Anime is an animation from Japan & it's have so many genre same goes to another dramas or movies. While cartoon is an animation from the rest of the world & same goes to anime, they also have so many genres. To make it's easy I'll show the art between anime & cartoon because their biggest comparison is animation art.


Naruto is one of example for anime

The Adventure Time is one of example for cartoon



Manga & Comic:

Manga, Manhua, Manhwa & comic are different name. Each of this things have own characteristic although the physically it look same. Manga is term for comic from Japan, Manhua is term for comic from China (if I don't mistake, Manhwa is term for comic from Korea (if I don't mistake too...) while comic is term for comic the rest of the world. Actually, its same meaning but the term shows which from they are.


Kuroshitsuji (Black Butler) Manga

Garfield Comic



Cosplay:

1 thing I want to remember, stop call cosplay is K-Pop style (it will make me amused so much). Cosplay are really-really wide. We have Japanese character (Anime, manga & game) cosplay, West character (superheroes, cartoon, game & comic character) cosplay & others. K-pop style actually we called it ulzzan
g. Let me mention it again 'ULZZANG'; still don't understand? Googled it. In addition, Cosplay also not about weirdo (Who called it weirdo, I'll called you too noob or dumb. Maybe someone don't understand unique hobby). So if you really-really have some time, googled it & try to understand what the difference between cosplay & ulzzag. (Btw I'm sorry to K-poperz if you think this is sensitive, I just want to correcting people term about cosplay. Especially in my country... It's hard for them to understand what is cosplay.)

Conclusion:

Once again, I remind you. Please... don't use wrong term. Think it before you want use the term. Actually this also for media, know & ask people who expert with the term first before said anything will make they do rage face. My intention just to correcting people term; not more than that. I hope they will understand more about this. You also can leave a comment if necessary for more information.

Last words:

I'm sorry if I do any mistake, give wrong information, error in grammar or make other people do rage face or troll face. Back to my intention, I just want correcting public term. Thank you for reading my blog & see you next time :)

Sincerely;

Hallo fellas,

So long I didn't update my blog. Actually I'm kinda busy with my preparation for my further study (Gommen ne~) (シ_ _)シ I need completing all the documents that needed by university. This time I will talk about my transformation in cosplay.

Actually... I have decided to leave cosplay world but at the same time I still want keep in touch with my fella, so I find an another way that is being cosplay photographer. In addition, I decided it because I want focused on my study. It's hard if I study & do that hobby at the same time even I can managed the time. (I'm the person who can't managed time well type.)

So, for this year I didn't participate cosplaying in Otafuse (since I still busy with my further study thing) but I will participate in Hobbycon. (Hwaitiinggg for tickets sales) O(≧▽≦)O . This year I planning to cos as Fairygod Mother from Cinderella & Marry Wheather from Fairy God Brothers (My local comics series). Why not I cos as local comic character, right? ヽ(=^・ω・^=)丿

One of my cos plan; for the first time I cos as cartoon character (ehe~~)

Hijabi girl & cosplay

P/S: I know maybe this topic a bit uneasy to some people but you need open minded when read it. (especially cosplayers)

Hijabi & cosplay...

Who said hijabi girl/woman cannot cosplaying? They can. Trusted me they can do this hobby.

How?

The  reality there is so many character that cover they head (there are so many options you can choose) and you also can modified a character style but the rules is the different not too far. I found so many example from google images & facebook. ┐( ̄ー ̄)┌ I still remember where one of my besties send a tagged my name in one of cosplay community page & surprisingly I found that a girl modified Hatsune Miku cosplay with covered head (she so creative). So in other words, cosplay not talking about 100% being that character but your enthusiasm to be the character (It's okay if you disagreed with me, I just give my opinion) ヾ(o・ω・)ノ

I don't know what character I want cosplaying since there is so many short skirts... (Dilemma)

Dundundundun... I know most of them put this as the reasons & dilemma. So many characters okay, reality. Okay, I give some examples such as Maleficient, Evil queen, Assasin Creed main character (Fem version), Yaya (Boboiboy -Malaysian cartoon-) & so on へ(。•ิ‿ -〃) 


 Maleficient


Evil Queen (Snow White)


Season 1

Season 2

Yaya (BoBoiBoy)
p/s: I rather cos as her style in season 2


Awesome right? Who said there is no character you can cos ~ヾ(^∇^) think it back my dear. Like others said, there is no impossible things in this world if you know how to make it possible.

Conclusion

So how? Did you agreed with me or not (it's depend on your self to think about this, I just giving my opinion & some tips -actually-) ~(^◇^)/ So... I already give some idea & it's depend on yourself how to adapt it. Theeeheeee~~ before I leave this post, I'm sorry if there are any mistakes or opposite opinions also any bad things when I write this post.

~*~*~*See you next time*~*~*~ ☆~(ゝ。∂)
