Cosplay Etiquette –
Cosplay events can be exciting and fun, whether you’re a participant or guest. Sometimes all the excitement can be a little overwhelming, causing us to forget our manners and basic social behavior lessons. Here are a few reminders:
Personal Hygiene – Please wear plenty of deodorant. This may seem like a no-brainer but it gets hot in packed convention halls and rooms especially, if you are wearing a heavy or thick material costume.
Photos and Videos – Ask first. Most cosplayers are proud of their costumes and will pose for you but ask first. It’s polite!
Don’t touch – Don’t run up and just grab someone. There are real people underneath the character and costume. If you want a hug or a pose with your arm around them, politely ask their permission first.
Don’t get stupid – If you are a cosplayer, remember, you are representing a character that is cherished by fans. Don’t do or say anything stupid that will tarnish the representation of the character.
Props – Don’t pick up a fellow cosplayer’s prop without their permission. People put a lot of work into their costumes and props, so respect them.
Don’t monopolize guests’ time – Others want to have a meaningful experience, too. Have yours and then move on! Also, remember, don’t touch!
Weapons – If your cosplay character carries a prop, make sure it doesn’t violate convention rules; also, be aware of where you are in relation to other people when you brandish it or swing it around.
