8) You're welcome.

I'm also impressed by most of the cosplays done here. I'm pretty sure much of the cosplays of The Red Ribbon Army, Son Goten, Trunks, One of the Chi-Chis, Kuririn, & the Artificial Humans were done in some Japanese convention. I'm sorry, but when it comes to cosplays in conventions around where I live, we suck.

Ummm, it's nice that people are speaking for me? :? :)

Yes most of the photos are indeed from Japan. The others are from the States. If you check out cosplay.com and type "dragonball" into the search bar, you'll get a gallery of cosplayers that have done DB cosplay. It's a good place to start looking for some really good ones.

Also ironically, there was a recent long running thread on their forums discussing the problem of DB cosplay often being done poorly. They also discussed ways to improve that. For anyone that's interested:

Umm...no. You've misunderstood that. From time to time, when a there's a little/minor spelling errors that I find & tend to irk me a bit. I fix it, proceeding with a "You're welcome 8) ". I've been doing it from time to time in these boards, but not too much because I don't wanna be perceived as a jerk (or something to that extent) or there's simply hasn't much spelling errors that I tend to correct. To conclude, it's a little pet peeve of mines, so no biggie.

.......BACK ON TOPIC. Holy crap!! Congrats on the pic editing Desire, that is some funny shit right there (did I ever mention how much I like in these forums, that most jokes are often relevant to the some other topics....clever indeed.....). Oh yeah & Big Green sounds like if Marvel or DC in the 1950-80s acquires the rights to the Dragon Ball manga/anime. (*imagines Big Green Vs. Hulk scenarios*.....oh dear god.)

Ah! Okay I understand now. Thanks for clearing that up for me. 8) I was sooo confused trying to figure it out this morning.>> This is why I should never try to make sense of and respond to something right after I get home from work in the early morning.@_@

I love that Raditz one. I'm amazed those girls can look good in almost anything, including Vegeta!

I...I...I'm in love with that Gohan. @_@ The hair, and the eyes... (they should be green though...) Waaaaaah!

And #17. So beautiful!!

I guess it's easier to find beautiful girls than beautiful boys. Ehehehe.

Wow, Gohan, Trunks and Raditz are all very impressive. Especially the near-perfection on Gohan's hair!!!!

I don't like cosplay unless I see someone do it well, and these 3 have won my respect. :D
Nothing matters (in a cosmic sense.) Have a good time.

Wow that Tao Pai Pai cosplayer certainly gets around! That's got to be the fifth photo I've seen of him. Though the guy really does look like he was born to play Tao. 8)
