    Have a halloween party in a few weeks time with the theme of Anime characters... BUT I don't know a whole lot about anime and I'd like some suggestions as to who I might dress up as...

    I'm a girl, longish dark hair, so if you can work around that...

    Also a link to a pic would be soooo helpful.

    Thank you!!!

    Could you pull off Kuukaku?!

    Don't take the route this woman took.

    Reki from Haibane Renmei. Took far, far too long to find a decent picture, which is a bit of a travesty really! Here's another with a bit more detail. She's got the advantage of dressing rather normally compared to the vast majority of anime characters, so you're sorted really except for the wings and the halo.

    Go as the girlie cop/cyborg thing in Ghost in the Shell. If it ever impressed me more I might remember her name but pics are easy t find since it's so overhyped ;D

    Why tie yourself down to female characters?

    How about Rock Lee?

    I'm tying myself down to female characters cos my boobs are too big to dress as a male character!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 509 ✭✭✭Zen 2nd


    heres another picture of the one I posted but with your boob comment in mind.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,786 ✭✭✭nothing


    Awesome, who is she though and what's she from?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 509 ✭✭✭Zen 2nd


    Yomiko Readman, also known as "The Paper", is a fictional character and the main protagonist in the Japanese novel series Read or Die, the manga and anime spin-offs of the books, and the sequel, R.O.D the TV. Though in appearance Japanese, she is in fact half-Japanese, half-English.

    If you dress up as her you would be a Paper Master so carrying around paper would be a good idea :D

    It's in the Roost, but it's only open to NUIM students who are members of Omega / Mikado / Games Soc....
    That's an awesome pic... wish I had the money to get the costume, I've decided on random anime schoolgirl...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,216 ✭✭✭✭monkeyfudge


    What colour is the school dress?

    If it's blue you can make an SOS Brigade armband, put a yellow ribbon in your hair and go as Haruhi Suzumiya.

    Wish I had more time and money... Ah well, generic school girl it is (Black shirt, red tie, black and red skirt, long black socks, little red shoes [provided I get them tomorrow] and maybe red ribbons in my hair.... and maybe dye my hair a bit)... Will post up a pic before I head off tomorrow!!!

    Don't mean to hijack the thread, but anyone got any suggestions for a male anime character with longish (darkish) red hair? Something not too out of the ordinary?

    Search for Man-Faye but be warned if your a Cowboy Bebop fan, you will want to remove your eyes with a rusty nail.

    How was the fancy dress party?
    Did everyone dress up?
    Did any guy dress as a girl as that is usually a great laugh?
    i dressed up in a female costume for a party last year and won best costume competition!
