The recent 2009 Tokyo International Anime Fair (or TAF) showed off some cosplay “companion” girls, though a close look at these (from a distance) appealing Yoko cosplayers reveals they are in fact outrageously attired:



Bodysuits; exposed navels are apparently too much for the organisers?

See sexy Yoko cosplay done correctly here.
However, where more modest costumes are involved, the companions can be quite appealing:







And a lady cosplaying a beetle:

More visible at Ota-suke.
ultimate fail.
LOL flaming official-suck Yoko cosplay~ >.<
BTW, wat's with all the random jap-girls doing FMA.
I want mai-waifu HAWEYE. damnit.
Hawkeye?
FMA high ranking soldier, she's pretty hot tbh.
pic 12 is the best
If people are trying to claim pic 5 isn't hot I will take away their penis.
I don't have a penis to take away so I'm good. But, for the record, closer inspection of the article would have revealed that pic 5 was being doted as "sexy Yoko cosplay done correctly."
Oh my God! I just noticed it, even though I actually went there today and took pictures of the exact same girls!
The beetle lady was cosplaying a specific character, she even has it hanging from her bag. Awesome to see it again, I had forgotten about it. I just wish I knew what it was named.
HOLD the presses!!!,...
Didn't General Roy Mustang advocate that all females are to start wearing mini skirts, once he takes over the military?
These girls are doing it WRONG!

AS much as I hate 3D, its better than state side cosplaying... *shudders*
Yoko cosplay = fail
Everything else = okay-ish
Not sure what to say though, all of them look like amateur cosplayers....
I can just comment on the Yoko ones: They look quite good but could have done better. More details, better colouring, more interesting posing.
At least they have the bodys to make those costumes fit. Not like so many german female cosplayers *shrugs*
omg they don't have belly buttons??!
I'd suggest they were wearing the body suits because of the weather, but... no, that wouldn't make a damn bit of sense, would it? Maybe the models have some hardcore tattoos (pbbft.)
The beetle costume is cute. She wasn't a companion girl, was she? If so, what in the world for?
The FMA chicks and that last one was pretty alright, the Yoko ones sucked ass.
Yeah the cosplay might not be grade A
But I'd still hit it, and so would you.
Well, the cosplayers might've been fail, but the Yoko costumes weren't fail. They were commissioned from Cospatio to the tune of at least $800 each, and that's not counting the accessories, wig, socks, or boots.
The Nia costumes you see in the background were over $3,000 each, not counting the wig.
That's not the same Nia costume shown on their site

The price is most likely much different.
That aside, I hate it when Yoko cosplayers use a bra instead of a Bikini top. You can't get underboob with a fucking bra. The bellybutton thing could've been solved by just painting one on, or putting a spot of glue there though.
No, it's the exact same Nia costume. I've seen other photos of the Nia cosplayers and the costume is straight from Cospatio. Now the pink jacket that particular Nia is wearing isn't on Cospatio's site (yet) because it was a special commission off of Cospatio.
Yoko on the right is a trainwreck, but the rest are pretty decent, and far better than that Reimu nightmare cosplay.
They could make Yoko face mask as well
Might as well seeing how far they went elsewhere LOL
Beetle lady is cute.
Also, the FMA military uniforms suck.
FMA military uniforms aside, i'd bang them. gladly.
I think it's the cosplayers who are failing. The Hagaren uniforms were about $500 each from Cospatio.
I don't think it would be worth that.
Not even half, the costume sucks, imo.
i've yet to find a site where you can buy decent costumes tbh..
Erm...Well I'll at least say that the boots are HORRENDOUS in the very least...oh well, for what they spent for these costumes, it's not 1/4 the quality it should be.
Indeed, make them yourself so you only have yourself to blame for Quality. Having said that I don't see what's horrendous about those FMA uniforms, yes they could be better (much better infact) but I wouldn't call them bad. Maybe I'm going blind or something?
That's why you should make them yourself..
Absolute 3D fail.
These Yoko cosplayers are not appealing, even without a close look.
...Oh, it took me a while to figure out those bodysuits. That's lame.
If not the event organizers, maybe they wanted to match her skin color?
How could you not notice the lack of a bellybutton instantly?
Looks creepy imo :(
To be honest I notice the tits before the bellybutton.
Basically the same here, I usually start from the top down, though I start with the face. However, wow...wonder how I missed the belly button and the creases in the arms etc. :/
Yoko cosplay fails, rest are above average
I couldn't cosplay Yoko that well, particularly because I'm gender type male, so I give them my props.
Any female cosplaying as Yoko would be fine?
Better than the alternative.
The Hagaren Costumes oughta have a Mini-Skirt version
Indeed LOL
Hahaha, I must agree with you XD
+; Yoko - underboob = FAIL
I like the FMA uniforms though the fabric seems of low quality. The selection of shoes though is outrageous. I mean come on... farm boots (galoshes) such as these (only in black)?

Don't they have military outlet/surplus stores that they could have bought some real combat boots at? Failing that surely there were better options than galoshes.
Here's a decent Yoko Cosplayer

Maybe they don't have navels.
At least their not really really fat :P
The Hawkeye cosplay weren't too bad unlike the epic yoko phail.
