A black person got accused of doing blackface? now I've heard everything...

There are plenty of black people who cosplay anon, a lot of 'good' black cosplayers fly under the radar but they exist. Goes back to the whole standards of beauty and what not I guess, I mean there are plenty of butfuckin ugly white cosplayers who get tons of praise for their mediocre work but they have creamy white skin and are skinny so bam they are good. When a brown person (not fat or horrific looking either) does the same costume there's gets shafted because it isn't everyone's ideal of what the character should look like and what not.

I know tumblr culture might make people think otherwise because of the cosplayingwhileblack blog where any and every black person gets posted and reblogged but outside of that website no one gives a shit about brown Rapunzel or Belle.

These two statements are related.


Can't be popular with a paltry number of characters to try and be the spitting image of. So when someone tries for anything not their color, they won't look like what people have in mind so they won't be popular.

As already said in the thread. There's a small limited pool of dark/tan characters who are interesting and not random background characters. Especially in more recent or very popular anime.

That and there are still super edgy "being racist is cool guise XD!!" people who will treat you like poo for cosplaying someone not your skin colour, and on the flip side flippant SJW's who will accuse you of blackfacing. The combination of these things turns a lot of people off.

There were several different ethnic groups that ruled Egypt at different periods.

You know who's largely responsible for the idea of cosplay popularity being generated? Lonely neckbeards who put people on a pedestal based on how much they can be fapped to. You know who those masses of neckbeards genrally prefer? White and asian women.

Just because there's no ~conspiracy~ doesn't mean there's not some bullshit going down that puts some folks at a disadvantage. Look at people like Yaya, JNig, or even Miyu and try telling me with a straight face that they'd have still gotten to where they did if they were black.

Because other black people discourage each other from getting "white" hobbies. I got bullied frequently by other black peeps people for "acting white" (Not acting like a stereotype, not listening to trashy ass hip hop, listening to the teacher, so on). I wasn't even black.

For the longest time, I actually thought there were a lot of blacks in the cosplay community. I live in a major city so I always see other black folks around, but I've started attending cons in other states where there might be only 3 of us in a room. I joined a cosplay group last year and for the longest time I was the only black member out of 100. Now we have 2. It's a little weird.

Even at the all fandom cosplay meetups, there are only a handful of us there now. I wouldn't find it so strange if it had always been like that.

The only thing said in this thread that matters (other than posted pictures)

All the black anime fans I know (admittedly few, but I've talked to a couple at cons) are a lot of fun to be around and are usually more down-to-earth than most other weebs.

That said, I'd blame it on low character pool. Most people want to cosplay as a character they like from a series they've watched, and Japan hates blacks so they just aren't there.

How many times can you do Afro Samurai or Dark Link before you just decide it's not worth your time?

Also, every time you cosplay a character, it won't be "anon cosplaying Sailor Venus", it'll be "anon cosplaying Black Sailor Venus"

>> No.6905628

>>6891159
No one is talking about conspiracy but you probably should acknowledge that there's a definitive thing called beauty standard and that blacks tend to not to fall in that.

However the same could be said with the type of people who argue that asians are better cosplayers than westerns and vice versa.

I don't really care that there aren't a lot of brown/dark skinned characters in anime. Most people who cosplay don't look like anime characters and just because their skin is a similar color doesn't justify their shitty wigs or crappy costuming. If skin color is the issue it's more so people making a big deal out of it.

That's the thing, pretty much all American blacks have fairly considerable white admixture. So while your parents and grandparents and more may all be 'black', it doesn't mean there's no white in them.
This is also due to the one drop rule. There are plenty of blacks that are genetically more white than black, but they're still considered black.
Another fun fact, black Americans are quite a bit more likely to be descended from slave owners than whites are lol.

This. The only ones who need racism in their lives are white pieces of shit who jerk their own ego by pretending to be interested in the black man's plight.

As the ever so wise Morgan Freeman says, to stop "racism" we must stop talking about it.

And start acting as real human beans instead.

But then again, you can't have humanity and librulism at once.

Not a lot of blacks are nerds, sadly. There's some amazing ones in the bay area - there was a really good Steel during Big Wow, and a really good Unmasked Predator/Human Predator at Fanime, and the usual smatterings of that girl from the new Avatar series.
