*Dies of utter embarrassment* Holy cheese doodles, I forgot I even dressed up like that, let ALONE put them on my site. Ah, the Internet, how you won't let things die!
Do my eyes decieve me, or is Meri banned?

My guess is either Meri can custom choose her title, or EX changed it himself in light of one of the recent podcast discussions. Even *I* am getting Budoukai 2 soon!

Everyone keeps saying it's dead ... works for me, at least right now.

Try it again. I used both IE and firefox, both worked.

Anyway, if I see him again soon, I'll ask him to search for more.

My guess is you can't link it; this is the link it directs to: http://msg.freett.com/errmsg.asp?

And now its time for my opinion, so gather around young'n's while I prepair to air out the sheets!

Dead link image: Weird. Cell is the better designed character, though.
Also note, I believe some browsers interpret the & (an ampersand) as "&" [such as Mozilla] and thereby not loading it correctly.

Image 1: Costume is good, hair while strange is a decent attempt at emulation. I see this #16 as a very A+ attempt.
Image 2: Hmm... a child... I think the kid does good. The costume is excellent, and he does have the look about him one would expect from Kuririn.
Image 3: Cell's a little wide, but costume design is A++.
Image 4: Hmm... #17 eh... not bad, could have done more with the hair though (like dye it black.)
Image 5: Wow. Just wow.
Image 6: See number 5.
Image 7: Not bad, but why Final Fantasy, when this is supposed to be DBZ?
Image 8: See number 7.
Image 9: Great, but seriously, lets try to stick to DBZ, shall we?
Image 10: See number 9.
Image 11: What the fucking blue hell is that?!
Image 12: See number 11.
Image 13: Great costumes, but uh... see number 9.
Image 14: See number 13.
Image 15: What the goddamn hell is that?!
Image 16: See number 15.
Image 17: Costumes good, hair is good, but he looks way too damn feminine.
Image 18: HOLY FUCKING HELL~! She's wearing her skivvies on the outside... wow... thats a rape waiting to happen.
Image 19: Uh what?
Image 20: Er?
Image 21: See number 20.
Image 22: Uhhh...
Image 23: They're short.
Image 24: Guh...?
Image 25: Hmmm Auron. Neat... not...
Image 26: Uh what now?
Image 27: Again, uhhhhh...?
Image 28: Guh?
Image 29: Thats a loooong button up shirt.
Image 30: Come on now, thats street clothes if I've ever seen them!!
Image 32: No comment.
Image 33: Nice.
Image 34: She's got a big head.

Those are really good. My favourite is the #16.

I'm not really sure you should be posting those other ones M-Vegeta. They have nothing to do with DB and EX will end up locking this thread and I would really like to keep it going. I will say most of them are good, though suprisingly, I've actually seen better Final Fantasy cosplayers than those. And I agree with Lost. That little girl cosplaying as Bridget from Guilty Gear, has a big head. She actually looks freaky.

#16: Good! I like this one a lot!
Krillin: No, no, no, no, no!
Cell:

Fucking Awesome!

#17: Does any one else feel a little on edge because there are too many androids?

We're all gonna die!!!

I'm not gonna review the non-DBZ ones, simply because there are way too many...

Don't you play The King of Fighters, man!

And I love the #16 (that dude looks HUGH for a Japanese guy, look at his feet!) and Kullilin costumes.

I think all the costumes are good. What makes them better than the American cosplayers is attention to the littlest details, knick knacks here and there, shoulder gear, arm bands, SHOES, and the quality of the clothing make the costumes complete. I was also looking at their hair styles, which I think is pretty impressive. Anime type hair ain't easy!

Anyway, my Japanese buddy told me it was difficult to find Dragonball costumes, or else I would of added more. He might be able to find more, we'll see.

Hahaha. I am amused to no end that you're agreeing with me

No, no I don't. I stand by my statement of #30 being street clothes, though.

Well she does. Freaky, freaky kid I tell ya! Plus, I personally wouldn't want my little girl cosplaying as a character that was actually a bishonen transvestite.

That's just asking sickos to come and kidnap her.

Sheesh! She's just a kid ... she'll grow into her head.

The street clothes girl was going after this look, "Vice".

I have one thing to say about that pic, LOLICON.

And we also appear to have drifted off-topic.

Well, at least it isn't Shotacon...

And we also appear to have drifted off-topic.

Yes, yes, people! Let us return to looking at bad Dragonball cosplay!

EDIT: Speaking of bad Dragonball cosplay...http://www.shockwavepulsar.com/cosplay/goku3.jpg

I give you...Goku a la camode!

Here are some more examples of why Dragonball cosplaying certain characters doesn't work:

And the scariest one I think I've ever seen:
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v176/ ... f/bad8.jpg

Anyway, I'll try and see if I can track down some that have actually been done pretty well for comparison and to prove my points above. For now, you can always check out Maggie's A Lovely Cyborg site to see her cosplaying as #18. She actually looks good. And no I'm not just saying that Maggie, it's the truth.

Is that what I think that is on his head, In the first one?

That rule seems impossible sometimes, seriously. But that's okay, this thread will probably die soon. You can only post so many Dragonball cosplay photos, good or bad. Like I said, my Japanese buddy was having a hard time finding them. The ones I posted were from 2002. It's not that they're rare, but there are just so many to go through as far as Japanese cosplay in general ... you kind of just have to get lucky and come across some.

I'll see what I can come up with ... without being overly annoying. "Can you find me some more Dragonball costume photos ... how 'bout some more ... got a few more?" And I really only want to post Japanese Dragonball cosplay because it might be something people haven't seen.

Normally, if the topic's been fully addressed, then it's fine if you go off-topic. In that case it usually only becomes a problem when the thread starter gets annoyed with how it's gone off-topic (for reasons I don't understand, if the topic's been fully addressed....). Basically, just never veer into non-DB related topics. If you do go completely off-topic, but are still discussing DB, just start a spin-off thread.

Well, the androids win again. This is really starting to scare me. I mean, how many androids are there? I guess they must be easy to capture in the world of cosplay. But the Trunks with them isn't bad either.

But that very last one was

Yeah, I’d have to agree the Androids are the best looking out of this bunch. For some reason I didn’t often see Tenshinhans. And yeah, that last one, I didn’t realize Goku and Vegeta had hair that looked like a fro so much.
