Re: (edited because I didn't make sense)

I think some of it might be that these, say, plus-sized FFX-2 Yunas just love playing the character so much in the game itself that, by extension, they want to "be" her in real life by cosplaying as her, too. It's probably easy to blur the line between what you see in the mirror and what you see on the TV screen if you're used to thinking of yourself as that character when you run around as them in the game. Or maybe you're an evil, evil person and just want to put the pretzel stand nearby out of business. The other end of the stick is that, sadly, some people view these conventions as opportunities to get laid, and that FFX-2 outfit might look good on you after a few hundred dozen drinks.

These things are a fun trainwreck to go to, but there ARE decent people among the... less-decent. It's just that, no matter who you are, I can't understand why Cloud #50 thinks there was a need for YET.ANOTHER.ONE. And because I see it every year, I've got to believe that it's some epidemic that doesn't have a cure yet.

Also, Wakka only-pants and Tidus mismatched-pant-leg-lengths really need to be brought to the attention of the fashion police. There are thousands of anime/game characters with somewhat normal, nice-looking designs... BUT NOPE! HELP ME INTO MY VISIBLE THONG, THANKS.

NONE OF THIS STUFF MAKES SENSE, by the way.
