Cosplay is a popular way of displaying one's fondness for a series, and is most often found at conventions. In cosplay, one creates and wears a costume intended to look like the attire of a favorite anime character. It can include roleplaying as well. Some people prefer to purchase the costumes rather than making the costumes themselves.
