To any of you who don't know, Anime & Cosplay are 2 of the popular trends from us Asians which have spread around the world where hundreds millions peoples around the world become fans of it. Cosplay websites such as http://www.cosplay.com and http://www.acparadise.com have at least 200.000 of the millions westerners who Cosplay our Anime/Asian characters.
The issue is when westerners cosplaying our Anime/Asian characters are actually racism against us Asians because cosplaying Anime/Asian characters are the same as impersonating us Asians since we Asians made our Anime/Asian characters based on our own Asians facial & body form, as a fact this is the main reason why we Asians look better or look like the Anime characters we cosplayed while westerners look awkward or even look hideous cosplaying our Anime characters.
Cosplay are the same as impersonating because Cosplay are not simply just wearing costume because the person who do it also changing their appearance such as changing their hair style, using make up, mimicking the same pose as the characters they cosplayed and the most concrete evidence is the person who Cosplay are claiming as the character they cosplayed when someone asking who they are.
About impersonating are the highest form of flattery, that is only if the person who do it are the same race as the one he/she cosplaying. I think any of you agreed that impersonating other race are racism so what do you all think about this issue which rapidly increasing each year?
