Like other social hobbies, most cosplayers get to meet new friends, roleplay in their favorite characters, talk about fandom, and just enjoy a con with like-minded company. <br /><br />Majority of cossers in japan actauly take pictures of each other for convinience and being able to process it themselves.

I find this stuff fascinating and weird, but what shocks me is the sheer amount of effort these dudes are putting towards a titillating pursuit with so little reward.
