I might be wrong, but I think that's actually an outfit from an anime called Idol Project. I'll have to look to make sure, but I think it is.

[(Anonymous)]

how many people are going to know that though and can people be faulted for assuming it's playboy which is waaaaay more mainstream?

[(Anonymous)]

People can be faulted for being assholes. It doesn't really matter where the outfit came from.

*Shrug* Iunno. They could ask the O.P.? The thing is, the O.P never said where this costume will be worn, when, and all that. For a convention? For a play? We don't have any idea.

Well, whatever it is, I hope that everyone involved does the easiest thing, which is "if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all".

OP

MCM London, October 2013. General sci-fi and comics con, but since this is England nearly everybody cosplays a recognisable character as opposed to just generally being a bunny girl. I'll have the eighties hair and such on my side, and I'm planning to make a skateboard shaped like a flying sword and a big plush raddish. I might also make cupcakes with marzipan daicon to hand out to everyone who doesn't call me Asahina Mikuru.

I'm not really bothered about people thinking I'm cosplaying someone I'm not (or I wouldn't cosplay a redhead in a red Bunny costume, after all) but it's if anybody insinuates anything NASTY, you know? I felt skeeved on at my last con in day clothes, and I wasn't at all impressed. And I'm a fairly tough sort of person, so it makes me really angry when I consider how anybody less thick-skinned might take it. If the guy skeeving hadn't been a friend of my friends, I would have told him EXACTLY where he could stick it, the rest of the restaurant be damned.

It is a Playboy bunny outfit, but the character wearing it is the main character of a very iconic short anime (Daicon IV) created for a Japanese scifi con by the people who would eventually become Gainax (Neon Genesis, FLCL, Gurren Lagann.... Apparently the outfit and the unlicensed music makes this nigh-officially-unreleasable in the US.

Assuming that it's being worn at an anime con, I'd think there'd be fans who'd recognize it for what it is, but it'd be a lot harder to recognize in a more general con, Halloween, etc. In the case of which, I thoroughly encourage OP either to accessorize with the sweet flying, glowing sword OR get ahold of a portable speaker system, blast ELO, and convince other people in costume to follow them around, fighting, dancing, and posing (wait, that last one. Do that last one).



Seriously, if someone wearing the Daicon IV outfit UNITES ALL COSPLAYERS UNDER ELO, that would be fantastic. And in-character!

+1 for advocating blasting ELO. God I love ELO. <333

[romanticide-xd.livejournal.com]

And since then we could see Gainax huge love for animated explosions XD

I always liked how most of my favorite characters are in this video. It's just hard to see them unless you have a laserdisc quality version and the ability to stop the film frame by frame

ETA: Scratch that, I always liked how pretty much my favorite EVERYTHING is in this video. There's even an old AD&D hex map in there

[raichu100.livejournal.com]

This is awesome! Thanks for sharing this!

[writerserenyty.livejournal.com]

Thank you for letting me know about this anime indirectly. I have no idea about its quality, but as a fan of Japanese idols I kind of need to see this.

OP

She's not an idol! Um, not really anyway. The person who posted the Daicon IV video was completely on the money. :3
