Just the truth:

Your outfit needs some work. The anime character has a v-cut with a collar, where as you have a turtleneck. Looks like you need a second necklace and both would need to be longer. The cuffs of sleeves on the character's outfit also appear to be more open and draped down where as the cuffs on your outfit are much tighter as the wrists. Also whatever you're holding up behind you is not a fuzzy white coat.

I meanā€¦ theyā€™re right.

Itā€™s just a picture of a pretty woman with a green dress and a wig.

If itā€™s a genuine attempt at cosplay, it needs work. If itā€™s just bait for her onlyfans site, itā€™ll do the job. Iā€™m guessing the latter is more likely.

Regardless. It's really not something worth much time. Definitely not a paragraph long critic. There are better things to be doing

One of the few that actually - and fairly even - critiques the cos play, instead of just drooling over the body. And you decide to mock it.

Was OP looking for critiques? There's a saying about giving advice when nobody asked for it. The nitpickyness of these unasked for critiques, in combination of the downvotes of the positive comments here, are just as telling as those drooling over the body.

They put up a post begging for attention and they're getting it

Yes, I'm not saying critiques aren't fair game to anything puts out to the public, but OCs critiques come off as very catty. Miniscule details that obviously OP and the rest of the world realize aren't EXACTLY ALIKE but rather a close and easily recognizable representation of the original character. Like I said, maybe all cosplay "observations" are this ridiculous when it comes to pointing out obvious discrepancies, I have no idea. Just didn't come across well from an outsiders perspective, nor do the downvotes on positive comments from all the seemingly jealous people.

The irony of your reply is that more often than not it's the men idolizing women like OP, that look like the cartoon you posted.

My deepest condolences to you if facts hurt your feelings my friend.

More often than not, yes. This time it's you. At least from a complete outsiders perspective. Maybe the cosplay critiques are always this picky. I have no idea to be honest. Not my thing at all. Just saw this in my feed so wanted to come uhhhh, "idolize" OP.

_Blackstar t1_ixyiazh wrote

It was not a critique, it was an observation.

A critique would have been mentioning that I have zero respect for OP after finding she links this to her Instagram, and Instagram to her OnlyFans as I think she's an attention-seeker and I believe she only got into cosplay after not being able to break into modeling, because there's never an over saturation in the market for horny weebs that want to jerk off to their favorite anime characters in real life. A lot of that is conjecture, and kind of mean so I refrained from saying it before.

As for the attention to detail, it should be taken constructively. The "needs some work" was there to show that the costume could use some refinement.

Isn't that what critique is?

It is, but there was no way for him to cry about her only fans and insult her if he just said that

Your first comment was a critique, which is fine and true. Not sure why you think it's not since pointing out what needs some work is a critique.

This comment on the other hand is not a critique but an attack on her person and unnecessary.

Fair enough, you win! Clearly you've looked into it much more than I and I'm over my head here. Have a good one!

Telling a woman that she needs a pearl necklace may be seen as inappropriate, unless you are in a relationship :|

Damn. Bet you're real fun to talk to. Did you consider that maybe OP is just starting out in the hobby? Maybe OP has a shoestring budget but really wanted to cosplay this character.

Stop gatekeeping, pal. It's a good cosplay attempt. At least recognize what OP got right and make constructive suggestions for incremental improvement rather than just trashing their effort.
