Cosplay, short for "costume play," is a hobby where participants, known as cosplayers, create and wear costumes to represent specific characters from various forms of media, such as anime, manga, video games, comics, movies, and TV shows.
Historically, cosplay's roots intertwine with Japanese theater, notably in kabuki tradition.
In the US, cosplay can be traced back to the 1930s , where science fiction fans began dressing up as characters from their favorite stories at conventions. However, cosplay as it's recognized today gained popularity in Japan in the 1970s, particularly at events like Comiket (Comic Market), where attendees began dressing as characters from manga and anime.
Black cosplayers have been an integral part of the cosplay community for decades, contributing their creativity, passion, and talent to the hobby. However, they have sometimes faced unique challenges, including issues of representation, cultural appropriation, and discrimination. Ultimately, cosplay is a way to express oneself and show love and appreciate for a fandom.
