Q&A for How to Make Anime Cosplay

It depends on the character. If the character's eyes are a big part of the costume, such as Uta from Tokyo Ghoul, I would definitely suggest getting contacts. If they aren't that important, they can be skipped.

Who cares if you look stupid? If you spend your whole life worrying about that, you'll never have any fun. However, I suppose you could confine your cosplay to Halloween and conventions if you're really concerned.

Absolutely. Your size doesn't matter, just focus on making your costume look good and you'll be fine.

You shouldn't let your skin color get in the way of your cosplay. Many people cosplay characters that aren't their skin color. You can still cosplay as Shiro.

Try using heeled boots. They will blend in nicely with her character.

It can be difficult to line up and may get uncomfortable, but not particularly painful.

Yes! I have seen many people cosplaying OCs, and it always looks really cool. Plus, it's a great way to have your cosplay stand out!

You can if you want. If the eyes are a distinct part of than the character, it’s a good idea to do so. Otherwise, you should be fine. Most people don’t stare into someone’s eyes when they are cosplaying and say, “Your eyes are the wrong color!”.

Deku (Izuku) is very timid and good-natured, so act shy and nervous while also being very polite and friendly if people talk to you.

Yes you can just do a closet cosplay. Just look through your closet and find clothing that is similar or just something that they would wear.

You can buy them at Halloween stores, online shops and sometimes the makeup section of drug stores.

Monika has long brown hair tied into a ponytail with a white bow, so if you don't have brown hair consider getting a wig. She also has emerald green eyes. She has a grey-ish brown-ish blazer, with a brown shirt that has a white collar and white sleeves. She has a red bow around her neck. Her skirt is a blue color but slightly shorter than the other members of the literature club, and has thigh-high black stockings. She has white uwabaki shoes with light pink tips. She's very sweet and acts innocent, but inside she's pretty obsessive, lonely, and jealous. If you don't have green eyes, I suggest you get contacts/circle lenses to add to the cosplay.

Contacts need to be fitted to your eye shape, so you’ll need a prescription from your eye doctor for them, even if you have perfect vision. Other than that, you’ll need a case and contact cleaning solution.

There are lots of YouTube tutorials on how to spike hair. Watching those should lay out all the supplies you're going to need and the steps you have to take.

You can do Misa Amane from death note, she is a really cute character to do and a lot of people know who she is.
