Cosplay Bottom Ten: "Cosplay AX-idents" | July 2004

Well, here we are at the end of July, having painfully put off this update until the absolute last possible second. This month's exciting Bottom Ten is a collection from this year's Anime Expo, the largest anime convention in the US (held yearly in Los Angeles), and could not be possible without the sly camerawork of our dedicated FuKuteers, especially Golbez. This is also personally one of the most fun bottom ten lists I've done in awhile; I've been majorly burning out on this site, but this awful selection gave me a fresh breath of hate-filled, vitriolic air. Enjoy!

#10

Fan-Merle
I'll bet you she likes yaoi.
#9 Hot Topic Cosplay
This is a lot like the weirdos who wear Hot Topic clothes and furry tails out in public for their anime club gatherings. Oh, shit, that girl on the right is probably supposed to be Yukino, huh!?

Maybe the girl on the left is Quina from Final Fantasy IX... just a thought.

#8 MEGA MAN-KIKI
Fucking hilarious. Frankly, he deserves a lot more attention and respect than that bastard, Man-Faye.
#7 Amazon Cammy
It's sadly probably what Cammy would actually look like in real life if she were a real person. I mean, you don't take on M. Bison until you've built up a pretty strong habit of steroid abuse, right?
#6 Asuka!
Ohhhh, doesn't he just look like he's on top of the world? 

I feel like my mind is being raped. So glad the camera didn't pan down, or this might be a number three picture...

#5 Love Hina!!!
Say it with me, now... TOWELS ARE NOT COSPLAY!

Maybe they're the girlfriends of those two Bathrobe Kenshin guys?

#4 Mega-Marlena!

I'm not gonna say anything...
I'm not gonna say anything...
I'm not gonna say anything...

#3 What in the Holy Living Fuck?

I have no clue what this is supposed to be a costume of, or even if that's a male or female. (The breasts make it hard to tell.)

Frankly, this picture is so bizarre it feels like it should be in an episode of Sweet Cuppin' Cakes! 

I'ma throw up now.

#2 Man-Faye

Gee, I wonder why Man-Faye was removed and banned from AX this year...?

This is why I hate Man-Faye. First he pulls crap like this, then he plays innocent on the internet to become a martyr, all in an attempt to sell his Man-Faye Merchandise (without a seller's permit) so he can achieve his dream of going to Japan.

Fuck you, Man-Faye! You're a bigger attention-whore than Mari Iijima! Die please!

#1! Unsexy no Jutsu

At number one this month we have a breath of fresh air from the usual myriad of horrible cosplay: a girl we affectionately dubbed "cloud-girl" all weekend long. The winner of the NINTH MEGA-AMELIA AWARD, for refusing Man-Faye the satisfaction of placing first, is Unsexy no Jutsu! >:D

I'm rather pleased that at a con with approximately 240,000 Naruto cosplayers, I managed to only include one cosplayer from that show in this month's Bottom Ten. Cloud-girl here is posing as Naruto's useless ninjutsu that morphs into a beautiful girl, "Sexy no Jutsu." Apparently for this costume all you need to do is glue cotton balls to yourself and wear a bad wig.

Doesn't look too bad...

AUUUUGHHH!!!!!!!!

OH GOD! MY EYES!!!

HOLY FUCKING SHIT!

...JESUS!

This is Unsexy no Jutsu from the back! Quite a difference there, isn't it! Can you believe it's the same person?!

The back of the costume is also woefully underdone compared to the front. Unfortunately, she really, really could use some extra cotton in the back to keep us from having to view her cellulite and other assorted fats, not to mention a slight murph.

Frankly, as far as Sexy no Jutsu goes, it looks more like Konohamaru's attempt. Though I do think it works as a far more effective attack than Naruto's original idea...
