This thread is for ouji and aristocrat (aka "boystyle") discussion. "Boystyle" is shorthand for "boystyle lolita" and refers to the masculine counterparts of Japanese lolita and, often, aristocrat fashions. There is a lot of overlap between these styles, and different people use different terms to describe them. We usually just use "ouji" here.

Stop making singular threads for your cosplays, newfags, this isnt redditBeginner Congoer QuestionsI'm a near-complete beginner to con culture and the "scene" due to zero exposure to it until recently and I have too many questions swimming around in my head that I need to ask. I've only been to a couple of small ones in my mostly-desolate area and I want to step up to traveling to bigger ones but I'm overwhelmed. Please bear with me. >Do a majority of congoers cosplay? I know it's common, but is it seen as a faux pas to not cosplay? >Likewise, is it seen as a faux pas to wear the same cosplay more than once in a multi-day event, or to not wear it some days? >I've read a lot on this board about "after hours" events and parties that aren't scheduled by the con staff. Do you have to get invited to things like that, or how do people find out about them? >Do cons that don't have a stated sub-demographic (ones that use terms like "fandom" or "pop culture" instead of specifically "fantasy" or "otaku" or something) tend to accept all demographics? Would you be looked at weird for going to something more "western" like SDCC in an anime cosplay, or would you expect to see a lot of them? >Why do some huge cons like Colossal and Dragon seem to place such significance on getting a hotel room onsite as opposed to just being nearby?

>Other Mobile Kanojos Games (Includes link to the apk downloader): http://pastebin.com/xcmdi6Ck (embed)Ecchi ExposThere has been a big rise of these types of events across the country for the past couple of years. 18+ conventions aren't new, but specifically 18+ ecchi events seem to be its own kind of thing. What is more, I see a ton more sex workers at these cons, and it kind of reminds me of a porn convention. However, for some reason they still have everyone wear pasties and no one wants to be nude like a porn convention. (perhaps that is the "ecchi" part coming into play but it feels contradictory to me for some reason).

They seem to have made a whole industry around cosplaying as groups for streams. The groups are typically themed as one property or another. I was made aware of this from a Naruto themed Douyin group. But all kinds of anime and other properties are used as themes. There are male groups as well as female groups. Viewers pay "gifts" to have members dance. Sometimes solo dances other times group dances.

I just went to Otakuthon yesterday and I saw tons of people, I went to panels, I had tons of nice conversations, interactions and pictures, but it hurts knowing I'll probably never see any of these people again. The only real long interaction I had was with a guy playing Go with me and some other people, but beyond that, it never moved outside of small talk and compliments.
I'm still happy that I probably talked to over a 100 strangers in one day, something most people who are lonely fail to do, but being alone in a crowd truly hurts.Socialising at conventionsIs it normal for people to ask for pictures and immediately leave after? Or is this another Switzerland specialty where everybody hates socializing? OR is it because I'm male? How do you even make friends at a con?
I went to a convention as Chainsaw Man last October and while over 20 people asked me for a pic, nobody actually stuck around or even made an attempt at small talk. I was hoping to meet people.
There's another convention coming up next month and I'm not sure if I wanna go get photographed and go back home all alone with no new contacts or friends again.Florida Gen: Kino Casino EditionNot even a full year this time for a new gen!

If you're old enough you should budget for a hotel room so you can party and party with strangers and make new friends. The best part about conventions is meeting people and subsequently running into them at other cons in other years and it's all so fucking beautiful. It's the only time you don't have to suppress your powerlevel because guess what? They know all the dumb memes you do and have a lot of overlap in interests and other things you enjoy.

Worse, would other congoers immediately assume I am a creepy pedophile? I don't really want to ruin some kids con experience like that.
Two things, I would be attending alone because the few con buddies from back then that I still keep in contact, are too jaded and busy to give a shit.

Wholesome: Cosplaying some My Little Penis characters with my then-gf when a little girl started freaking out over how great we looked. She got her dad to take loads of pictures with both of us.
Less wholesome: I saw a fur-suiter yelling at his wife.
Least wholesome: Walking to the convention center behind my friend's sister in her Sailor Saturn cosplay, on a windy day. She either didn't notice or didn't care that her bare ass was playing aggressive peekaboo with me. Only time I've ever wanted the walk from the hotel to be longer.
Sad: I was at Twitchcon when that lady broke her spine.Maid Cosplay Threadshare images of your favourite maid cosplays, whether it be the cutest girls or the most fashionable and intricate designs.No titleNew cosplay)No titleWith the amount of cosplayers that are reaching their 30's Do you think we're going to see levels of youth envy like we've never seen before?Gyaru thread?Any gals here?No titleAre IG threads allowed in this board like /p/?

This all started because I saw a listing for a custom vintage cotton/chiffon petticoat that I thought was adorable but too expensive for me. I am baby when it comes to lolita fashion so I thought you know what lemme get a new petticoat. I search up cotton petticoat, seeing if I can find anything and its all chinese amazon dropshipping trash. I don't want trash I want something that will last me for years, so I try looking up maybe I can find a brand or a listing for a petticoat and all I find is just more fucking trash, I go on etsy, its dropshipped, I go on ebay, its chinese, I get so desperate I go on fucking r/lolita and all I see is people recommending fucking AMAZON.
I give up, I'm asking yall because I need a new petticoat, at this point I do not care about the pricepoint I just want something good. Please for the love of all that is holy, help me.
