Boss( 'ω') “Sure… It should be perfect as long as we have Chara’s costume but we really don’t know how perfectly we can complete the cosplaying, actually, huh…?”
Saori(゜∇ ゜) “So today! Commemorating Cosplay Republic’s grand open! How can we do cosplaying?! Let’s take a look here!”
Commemorating Cosplay Republic’s Grand Opening! Let’s Try out Cosplay with SIX Steps!
1. Collect some information about the Chara you want to cosplay.
2. Make a list of the necessary items.
3. Get the items necessary for cosplaying.
4. Research the Chara’s make-ups skill.
5. Try make-ups on your own.
6. Take some pictures of yourself.
1. Collect some information about the Chara you want to cosplay.
Boss( 'ω') “What exactly is the information?”
Saori(゜∇ ゜) “Try to collect media which can tell you what kind of costumes Charas are wearing! You can also check the setting-up reference book of manga or the games or even the official websites!”
2. Make a list of the necessary items.
Boss( 'ω') “Checking out the information that you collected in No.1, make a list of the necessary items for cosplaying!”
Saori(゜∇ ゜) “Yep! Here is how you can separate the items…”
[Costumes]
[Wigs]
[Colored Contact Lenses]
[Shoes]
[Accessories (※depending on each Chara）]
Saori(゜∇ ゜) “You can of course separate them more detailed but let’s focus on these five sections first! We tend to forget the shoes and colored contact lenses so please take a good look at Chara and found out what shape and color they are!”

3. Get the items necessary for cosplaying.
Boss( 'ω') “Here, we really want you all to make use of Cosplay Republic! Since you can buy all the items (except for the colored contact lenses) which are necessary for cosplaying as a set, you can skip the procedure No.1 ~ No.3!”
Saori(゜∇ ゜) “Some people even make the costume from scratch! Since not all kinds of cosplay costumes are available in Japan, what we can do is to create them with your love and sprit…!!”

4. Research the Chara’s make-ups skill.
Boss( 'ω') “Oh, yeah! It’s the make-ups, huh…?”
Saori(゜∇ ゜) “As for the make-ups, please take a close look at the Chara so you will put exactly the same make-up as the Chara has! Are the eyes drooping, or almond-shaped? How about the eyebrows’ angle or the facial complexion… and more! First get the image of the face of the Chara!”

5. Try make-ups on your own.
Boss( 'ω') “How seriously should we get the make-up tools?”
Saori(゜∇ ゜) “Don’t try to buy the professional make-up tools until you seriously get into cosplaying. Just try to put some make-up with the ones you have first!! I know it’s going to be a little hard to do that but try to get your face closer to the Chara’s face, imagining a little thick make-up!”
6. Take some pictures of yourself.
Boss( 'ω') “I bet this moment is the most enjoyable time, huh?”
Saori(゜∇ ゜) “Yes! I believe so!! Take the best shot from all your hard work!!!”
