LMAO, he’s a Brazilian guy in a UK hospital.

Took Google for a spin. A simple ‘Pokémon trainer outfit’ search comes up with nothing that looks like what they’re wearing. The accessories might be off Amazon or other similar sites, but the combination of the clothes seem unique (Note: SEEMS).

this coming from someone calling themselves the rant kid.

You really should have photographed that against a white back drop. With all the other junk in the background it is hard to make out where the piece ends and the background begins.

People that tend to click on articles for Evo and other fighting game tournaments do know who Justin Wong is, though. He’s a pretty big figure in that scene. It’s like going on Screamer and seeing a gif on Iniesta. Maybe not the most famous footballer, but people that follow the sport know who he is.

If you’re reading Kotaku, knowing who Justin Wong is normal

Why are you reading an article on a fighting game tournament if you don’t know who Justin Wong is?

On a gaming blog it is in fact normal for some people to know about successful competitors.

Most normal people don’t fucking say “asian guy” either. It’s just “guy.”

You say it like there’s something wrong with people who know who justin wong is. This is a gaming blog. Were your parents on drugs when they had you?

Boom.

You were clearly criticizing since you basically said it’s not cosplay.

I dunno. I see dudes in blue Henleys and khakis with leather holsters all the time. I don’t often see giant red bows on women’s heads.

I’ve seen the images, but not the film. The only Gibli film I’ve seen is spirited away and I hated it.

- really not into anime

Not being into Anime is really going to cut down how much cosplay you recognize.

“that’s cosplay?”

You agreed with OP that it isn’t cosplay. You litetally insulted something she chose to do. Who cares if it’s generic? It’s not for you.

Or you could not be a dick and accept that anyone can cosplay, regardless of level, and move on with your life? She likes the character and wanted to do it.
