Since I am 6 foot and 120 pounds, I wanted to ask if anyone knows any cosplays that would fit a skinny guy?

Some I know of:

I've done a bunch! Like you listed, I've done 9S.
But I've also done Ghirahim and Gerudo Vai link in terms of Zelda ones.
I'd also recommend some of the later parts of Jojo as you could do some villains pretty well. I'm a bit on the shorter side though so I can't do those.
Persona is also good in some areas, but as >>10413917 said a lot of anime helps.

I know everyone around you has probably said this a million times but you seriously need to put on some more weight if you're 120 lb at that height. My skinniest point was 115 at 5'8 and I felt like death. I know gaining weight is hard believe me but it's worth it

>> No.10415959

>>10415958
Nayrt but changing your habits is what's hard. I've seen overly skinny people try to go from living on energy drinks and nibbles of food to a normal diet and it's definitely hard for them. When you fuck up your diet like that for years, going back to real food is going to seriously mess with your digestive system. At least when you're losing weight you're mainly just hungry, not throwing up or feeling like you're stuffing yourself beyond capacity

>> No.10415962

>>10415958
I'm going to assume you're being earnest here and say that it's actually very difficult to gain weight if your eating habits lead you to where you are. For people that suffer from either an eating disorder or a lack of appetite their bodies become accustomed to so little that getting more than just enough food to maintain your weight will make you feel physically sick. So sick that you don't want to eat anymore, but if you're dangerously skinny you have to muscle past the urge to vomit. It took me months to get up from 120 to a totally healthy 130, just ten pounds, and I had to consistently keep eating and work up my nonexistent appetite. For 6 feet 135 is skinny but 120 makes me worry as someone that struggled with it myself. Either way I hope he's doing alright

>> No.10415963

You may be tall and light but at 120lbs at 6' you're gonna appear extremely lanky and cryptid-like and it's going to just look extremely awkward in whatever cosplay you do unless cosplays with bulker clothes like heavy coats and whatnot.

However even that might not help if you have a skinny neck due to lack of weight and in bulkier clothes it will make it look like you have a tiny head. You'll end up in a /cgl/ cosplay cringe thread I promise you.

If all else fails just go all 2005 scene twink mode you can probably get away with that if you have an attractive face.

I guess basically anything for someone who's always dressed himself like a fucking middle schooler. Honestly, I don't even know where to begin for anything.

How does one figure out if they'd be able to pull off the look of a character? How can I into fashion/clothes shopping in general? Damn it actually feels pretty dumb when I type it out.

>>10418317
Take it slow, I'm in my 6th year of cosplaying and I'm still learning new things. And I also wore t shirts + jeans until I started a new job recently that requires me to look more put together.

>Do people just use online stores or can you hunt stuff down in thrift shops and whatnot?
I buy online when the cosplay is too complicated/requires materials that are hard to work with or buy. Thrift if you're comfortable with sewing/altering a lot or the cosplay doesn't have specific details. Same applies for fashion.
>How does one figure out if they'd be able to pull off the look of a character?
Think about what vibes you give off and compare that to the character. I have resting bitch face so I end up picking serious-looking female characters. Don't limit yourself though, just pick whoever you like.
>How can I into fashion/clothes shopping in general?
Follow influencers/youtubers/random instagram users whose style you like. Then figure out which aspects of their style appeals to you and bookmark the outfits you want to wear. Try to see if there's a general trend or style, it helps to see what they're tagged as, so you can google it and find more similar outfits.

Eeegh, I kinda dislike following people for that stuff but I think it can't be helped in this case, might as well start somewhere. I would love to learn to sew, I'm assuming I should basically just grab some shit and hit google? Seems to work for everything else I wanna learn. I've actually got a 3d printer and am slowly working towards being able to do my own models, so I'm sure I can do some pretty neat stuff in the long run.

I mean, you don't have to follow them, you could just scroll through a few profiles and bookmark stuff you like, save it in a collection to reference and come back to later.

There's a ton of sewing videos on youtube, but yeah you'll probably need a sewing machine if you plan to do a lot of sewing.

The vast majority of male characters (aside from the extremely rare buff-to-a-ludicrous-degree guy) are skinny. Not difficult to pick a character out there.
The issue is that the vast majority of these characters are also short. So, if you're anything above 5'11, you'll look odd, especially in photos with other characters from the series you're cosplaying (ie. If you're a tall Ken taking a photo with a short tsukiyama it'll look odd).

Tall is usually corroborated with built in anime; I think I can count on one hand the amount of tall, skinny characters there are to cosplay. Okabe comes to mind first.

>normal adjective
It's redundant. The English language already has "normal" so we don't need to make new words up.

God damn. If a bigger guy tries to mog you with his fugly roid muscles he'll fail every time, beeftards can't appreciate slenderness. Kind of agree with the anon who says you should undo the bottom button on your clothing though for the fit, that's also a rule for wearing suits.
