Title: 2015 Old School Cosplay Gathering 4/19
Post by: BSaphire on August 08, 2011, 09:29:23 AM
If your cosplay character appears in Anime, Manga, or Video Game pre 2001 on back then this is the gathering for YOU! Bring out your DEAD! LOL or at least your old school cosplay and join us for this gathering!

Post who your character is, the year your representing, and what title & genre it is from. Yes, you can cosplay your Cat girl Nuku Nuku, Evangelion, Crest of Stars, Transformer, Power Ranger, etc cosplay in a gathering designed with all the "old school" cospeeps in mind!


See you there old school cospeeps!

Vampire Princess Miyu! I almost completely forgot about that anime! This sounds like a really neat gathering, and if I don't come up with something, I would still love to see it. Last year I did consider Asuka from Evangelion though, maybe I can do that!

I would love to be Bat again, from Fist of the NorthStar. Not sure if I want to do the movie version ( 1986) or the comic version ( 1983) though. Either way this idea sounds epic!

Depending on where and when this is, I can probably come as Ryoga Hibiki from Ranma 1/2. It's from the late 80's through the 90's. (I feel so old whenever the 90's are referred to as old school, since it doesn't feel that long ago to me...)

Well!  I've been looking for a push to get my Tsukikage Ran cosplay together!  Will cosplay Ran (the series ran from Jan 2000 to April 2000).

Post by: Armored-Heart on August 24, 2011, 04:56:23 PM
Depending on the day and time, I might attend as Sakura Kinomoto from Cardcaptor Sakura, in the Catch You Catch Me opening outfit. :3 That barely makes the cut, as the manga and anime both ended in 2000. xD

Feel the same way. If I really want to be darring then should kick it really old school. Break out Gatchaman, Cyborg 009, Space Battleship Yamato, even some Macross. Hmmm have some thinking to do now.

Would Rip Van Winkle from Hellsing be considered old school? XD I know Hellsing came out in 1997, but Rip didn't appear in the original anime series, but she was in the original manga. :P
Title: Re: Fanime's 2012 Old School Cosplay Gathering
Post by: maikiritori on September 14, 2011, 05:36:15 AM
Angel, yes Rip would count. (I'm speaking for B on this one, since she's still without internets.) As long as the character was published before the cut off date, they're golden.

Post by: kagome437 on September 14, 2011, 05:51:51 PM
Sounds like an awesome idea for a gathering. I'll be there most likely as an observer, because  I love old school animes. But the old school cosplay I'm doing is from an anime, and the series is a little older than than 2000.  ;D
Title: Re: Fanime's 2012 Old School Cosplay Gathering
Post by: Angelx624 on September 15, 2011, 12:56:52 AM
Well, now I just have to find out when volume 4 of the Hellsing manga came out..... xDD
Title: Re: Fanime's 2012 Old School Cosplay Gathering
Post by: BSaphire on October 19, 2011, 03:48:40 PM
Couple thing:
@ Angel: Yes bring Rip Van Winkle!

@ everyone:
The deadline date isn't hard set in stone, but I want to see the great costumes come back. There has been more modern anime done in the last couple of years so I noticed there are not as many complex cosplays as there used to be. For us "old schoolers" we remember seeing these fab cosplays and I would like to see them come back. So if your character appears a little later in the series and the series started before Dec 31, 2000 then it should be ok.

I am looking at having the main gathering on Friday, but I want to do something on Thursday. Any body game for a Thursday meet up? I would at least like to give the staff who cosplay the opportunity on Thursday, but it isn't exclusive to staff & it would be fun to do something... Ideas anyone?

Post by: Nina Star 9 on October 19, 2011, 03:58:15 PM
This sounds amazing~ I think most of my cosplays qualify, if just barely, haha. (I have two characters from 1999, and the newest character I have done is from 2002... Though, next year I'm doing a character that is currently less then a year old, even if the game [Radiant Historia] is quite old-school seeming!)

I might bring my Ayla (Chrono Trigger) cosplay out of retirement for this, or if I make either Marle (also CT) or Amelia (Slayers), I'd probably do that.

If not, I'm thinking Motoko Kusanagi. The exact costume I'm doing is a newer one, but I've cosplayed her '80s version, so I think it qualifies.

Regardless, I'm excited~

As long as this  doesn't interfere with any other gatherings Sailor Mars will be there...and depending if she can drag her friends to Fanime 2012, then you might see a whole troupe of Sailor Scouts.

I'm not sure how my cosplay schedule will pan out, but I'll try to attend as a gijinka Giygas (Earthbound).
Title: Re: Fanime's 2012 Old School Cosplay Gathering
Post by: Dany on October 20, 2011, 12:17:33 PM
Am definitely interested, given that we have several things that would be considered such that are in our closet. We casually tried out Kyouske and Madoka from Kimagure Orange Road last year (Darieum was in a school uniform, I was in civvies with a yellow ABCB apron) but I think ONE person knew what we were. Maybe if we're in context with other old school things it may work out better. XD

I'll know more of how much we can be involved when I know dates and times. That whole "masquerade" thing we have to plan around!

EDIT: Thursday is a MAAAAAAAYBE. I'm hoping to convince D that taking Thursday and Friday off is a good idea, and if that happens, then we could very well be in AND sure it won't interfere with Masquerade mischief.

Does Velma Dace Dinkley from 'Scooby Doo!' count as old school even though she's not from an anime, manga, or video game? :D I sure hope so since I just completed her today!

First off I just have to say that you look AWESOME! Unfortunately I don't think Scooby Doo will qualify for the "official" Friday gathering, but if you are there on Thursday come and join in!

That goes for all the Old School Cosplay out there, I don't have any issues with an American cartoon/comic based cosplay that sticks close to the cut off date (12/31/2000 -back to- 1/1/1960 release date) for THURSDAY's gathering. I just love the old stuff so if your there Thursday evening and can make it in your old school cosplay YEAH!!!

Friday's Official gathering will be anime, manga, graphic novel, and game based character representation that would fit for a anime convention.

Hope this helps more peeps "Bring Out their AWESOME Dead!" HAPPY HALLOWEEN OLD SCHOOLERS!

 :D this gathering sounds like lots of fun. i say a thursday  meet up would be different but i don't know how many people could really come. because usually thats the day everyones arriving in san jose. so if it was a meet up later in the evening. i think lots of people would come along.
The series i'm cosplaying is from 2002, would i still be able to join in the gathering?

Unfortunately no it would be to recent, but you are more than welcome to come out and be an awesome spectator :)

Choosing a cut off for this gathering to feel "oldschool" was not easy for me. Between 2000 and 2004 there were several really great anime and manga series that started, but I wanted to take cosplay back to a time where it wasn't so modern looking. Where we looked like the fantastic and wonderful freeks that we are :) so I picked the end of 2000 for the release date of what ever anime/manga/game character. This will allow many who haven't cosplayed in a long while an opportunity to come out and join us in the fun and show off their older cosplay that they loved (and hopefully didn't get rid of.)

I hope this doesn't discourage many cospeeps from joining us.

Again, I would like to remind everyone that this will be on two days:
THURSDAY = Unofficial gathering where American comic and cartoon characters dating from Dec 31, 2000 on back will be allowed to join in. I plan on having this in the evening around 6 pm so that it doesn't interfear with swap meet participation.

FRIDAY = Official Gathering where those appearing in any anime/manga/game dating from Dec 31, 2000 back will be allowed to join in. I am thinking of having this around 6 pm also, what does everyone think?

Fingers crossed we'll get some responses on that before too long, Tatterpixie! Worst case scenario, if BSaphire approves of it, perhaps the Matsumoto gathering can be scheduled to coincide with the Old School Gathering in some way, so that people can attend both without having to run the costumes twice in a row over the weekend (unless they really want to!).

It may not be. Last year I got some feedback that the gathering we held was a little too early for some to attend (I believe we had 4:30 Friday then). We might have the same issue (swap meet) though. But I've put the question out there to see what people think. :)

So I finally updated the first post! Yeah!!!
I put the majority on Friday. If you plan to attend Thursday or are only doing Thursday please let me know. Also if your costume has changed or you decided on one please let me know.

Remember that @ Thursday's gathering American comic and cartoon characters are ok so bring em out!
I set both gatherings to 6 PM and the location is FiF MS although the Fountains are no longer fountains but rather a planter. The lighting should be great for this time in the evening.

I am sooo excited! Really glad that there were more people out here that missed the "old school" cosplays too! :P

Hi B, if it wouldn't be too much trouble I'd like to update my cosplay for Thursday's gathering. c: As Thursday will be primarily a travel day for my group, I've decided to go with a more casual cosplay, but luckily it still fits the old school theme. xD

I'll be cosplaying as Tintin from the European (originated in France, I believe) comic The Adventures of Tintin, which ran from 1929 to 1976. Hopefully my group should arrive with enough time for me to get to the gathering!

Hola B!

Slight change in our cosplay plans, after reviewing logistics and current posties:

Kyouske and Madoka will be for Thursday, as soon as we're out of the reg line, so we might be running in a wee bit late. The +1 is my hubby, Darieum (not on the forum).


For Friday, we're planning on Captain Harlock and Miime, so we're ready to run with the Matsumoto gathering right afterwards.

Whee! Is it Fanime yet? No? Good, I got stuff to finish!

I'll try to make the Thursday/ Day Zero meet-up as well.

Btw, my Miyu is the manga version. Not sure if it really matters but it might to some. Just giving you a heads up.

EDIT: Eh, looks like I have to go into work on that Thursday after all. I might still wear Jet that evening, but I doubt I can make the gathering.  :-\

Knowing that someone for OS will be there I may debut my Hot Ice Hilda a week earlier then intended. Fingers crossed!

As I was taking a look at my cosplay plans (which have changed a bit since I first posted in this thread! If I do Slayers it will be Martina, and I'm leaving my Chrono Trigger cosplay at home), I realized that I'm planning on going as Maj. Kusanagi Friday evening (it has to be evening because I'm hopefully adding EL wire to the costume -- wish me luck!!), which is when this gathering is. Thankfully, the character is from the 80s, so I should be good there, though I have no idea when the outfit I'm doing is from. Is that alright? I know that most people associate her with Stand Alone Complex, from the early-mid 2000s, but I started my GitS fandom with the manga, darnit! I can always pull out my cosplay of her actually from the manga, it's very late 80s, but my new one is much cooler and much more recognizable...

If not, I'll maybe stay in my Martina cosplay or pull out something I'm planning for Saturday, like Lady Blackpearl (Legend of Mana) or Ulala (Space Channel 5), since 4/6 of my cosplays this year seem to qualify.

LOL, just tumbled across this. KOR is one of our favorites too (because we are older and my husband especially was raised on anime thanks to Italian TV), though we haven't quite pushed through the manga yet. That being said, the anime ain't short :D

Hopefully we look OK...I wasn't happy with how I looked last year (it was just my regular clothes with a black wig and a yellow ABCB Cafe apron) but I was also tired and having some makeup issues. We'll see if I can't fix that for this year a bit!

I had a quick question regarding the definition of "Old School"...
Do fighting games count? What about games that have had a remake since 2000? I have a character from a 1989 fighter I'd like to make if I have time. Her original series stopped at around 1992, but she had a few appearances in other compilation games. Does a character within those parameters still count as old-school, or do remakes and appearances disqualify them?

I suppose it depends on the character and a consensus.

Of course fighting games count :) The character has to have appeared in the version you are cosplaying pre 2001. I know that Mature didn't get a make over into her pants suit until just a few years ago, but I could ware her if need be... (mabe Friday) but I wanted to take it back and I really enjoyed Larva from Vampire Princess Miyu so I doing him instead *Yeah for crossplay*

Post by: Nina Star 9 on April 17, 2012, 09:22:15 AM
So the exact version that we are cosplaying has to be pre-2001, not just the character itself?

Guess I'll have to do some research on when my cosplay first appeared, especially considering that I don't think she ever actually wears it in the series! (Though there is manga-styled official artwork, anime-styled official artwork [which would be post-2001], the cover of volume 1.5 of the manga [again, I think post-2001?], and a statue [likely post-2001], so it's up to that manga-styled offcial artwork and if I can find a date for it!)

Character appearance needs to be pre 2001 and I would prefer to have the costume portion pre 2001 also. It is part of what sets "oldschool" apart.

Post by: Nina Star 9 on May 02, 2012, 10:13:01 AM
Okay, thanks for the clarification!

I'm planning on wearing my Maj. Kusanagi (Hard Disc variant) Friday evening, so that's what I was hoping to wear to the gathering. I realize that I'm probably the only person who thinks of her as an old-school character, though, since I started with the (1980s) manga and not the anime on Adult Swim (though plenty of people know the 1990s movie, I'd hope, but I'm doubting even that because at the two cons I wore my manga-version Maj. Kusanagi at last year, which is very similar to an outfit she wears in the movie, the only two people to recognize me were Richard Epcar and Mary Elizabeth McGlynn, haha -- I would have been quite dissapointed if they didn't get it!). I'm not sure how appropriate it would be simply because of that. (Plus, I'm considering entering the karaoke contest, which is at the same time)

So put me down as a Maybe (but at this point likely), with Maj. Kusanagi as my costume. If I'm not at the gathering in that costume and you see someone at the karaoke contest wearing the same costume or if an Ulala from Space Channel 5 shows up at the gathering, though, be sure to say hello. :D (I figure that of the old-school costumes I'm bringing, Ulala would get a better reception than my obscure Legend of Mana character if I decide to switch out The Major for someone a little more appropriate!)

My apologies B, but I'm afraid it looks as though I'll have to drop out of the gathering. I have to postpone my Tintin cosplay due to time and financial constraints, and while I'd love to still come on Thursday as Cardcaptor Sakura, my group's travel plans have been shifted around and thus I don't think I would be able to make it.

It's looking like I'll be able to make it, since I got into the karaoke contest lineup -very- late, so I should have plenty of time beforehand for the gathering and photos.

Thank you photographer that took turns with my camera and also thanks to the Ranma that I kidnapped out of the crowd - glad to have you join us!

- Kasumi
Ah, how did I miss these? thanks for taking pics! I've had a difficult time finding some of my costume, and you got a few good ones of my butt.
(I was the Maj. Kusanagi, by the way~)



If this is the same time/day again, I have a feeling I'll be attending again, even just to pop in and say hello, since pretty much all of my Friday afternoon/evening options right now are shaping up to qualify, but no word yet on what it might end up being. :) Right now it's between Julia (Cowboy Bebop), Ulala (space Channel 5), and Lady Blackpearl (Legend of Mana), but all this will probably totally change by the con, haha~

My vault 13 dweller (makeshift cosplay) is just about done. Hope no one is looking for accurate cause this is my fun cosplay for now. When (insert heavy dosages of optimism here) Bethesda launches Fallout 4 I will have a better Vault dweller, however I want to do the Ullyse's Courier outfit in the future. As for Old School next year... expect to see one of two new cosplays for this... Moon Maiden from Okami or Aya Brea from Parasite Eve.
Is it just me or do a have a run on cosplaying game characters going on *LOL
Squidges and I look forward to seeing everyone on either Thursday or Friday and look for me in my Vault 13 makeshift cosplay!

If I finish my Kid (Chrono Cross) cosplay in time this year, I definitely want to wear her to one of these - preferably Friday so I can get some worth outta the effort it's taken to complete this cosplay! XD

Since Thursday tends to be a bit hectic and it's the unofficial gathering, can I bend the rules and wear a character from a Canadian-American cartoon that debuted in 1999? Still old school animation, right?  ;D (That would be Marie Kanker from Ed, Edd, n Eddy, btw...if I can get/borrow a wig, anyway!  ;))

I cannot express how old this thread makes me feel... But hey I am super happy people appreciate the classics (even if the classics were when I was 15 according to your year considering things 'old school') We may attend based on time available. My boyfriend and I might bust out some Tokyo Babylon but there is already a CLAMP gathering so we may have to choose between this and that and since when is EVA old school?! 3.33 just came out... le sigh... we're old. But we'll also be Shinji and Kaworu so there are several options we may be. I can state more certain cosplays and confirm if we'll attend as events and gatherings become more solid. Thanks for the opportunity to bust out some old school appreciation :) I so look forward to taking pics.

Post by: BSaphire on April 06, 2014, 06:00:54 PM
The info on the first post is accurate there are two with the Thursday gathering being the unofficial one that would allow for all those great cosplays that aren't traditional such as comic, web graphic, etc. So YES, SpookiePookie, your purple tentacle monster would work for Thursday :P

Though 2001 may seem "not so old school" to some of you, I had to pick a reasonable time frame and it seemed to work with the changing of gaming platforms, new styles in manga and anime, and more modern movies so 2001 it is. :)

I don't know how I missed this thread but I will absolutely attempt to attend the "official" gathering with my girlfriend on Friday.  This year is my return to anything cosplay after an over decade-long hiatus and it will be her introduction to such.  We're cosplaying as one of Japanese video gaming's earliest couples - er, ex-couple as it falls under modern times.

I'll be Taizo Hori AKA Dig Dug from Dig Dug (1982), Dig Dug II (1985), Dig Dug Arrangement (1996), and a bunch of other Dig Dug spinoffs as well as the Mr. Driller series (began in 1999) as an occasionally playable side character.  I'm pretty much done.

My girlfriend will be Masuyo "Kissy" Tobi from Baraduke (1985), and the Mr. Driller series as an occasional supporting character.  We're in the process of working on her bio-suit but her ion cannon and jet pack are complete.

Outside of their own games they're best known as the parents of Susumu Hori, hero character in the Mr. Driller series as well as his older brother Ataru Hori and younger brother Taiyo Tobi, born shortly before Taizo and Masuyo's divorce.  As we're cosplaying as the characters at our current ages, Susumu would be a little baby (and yes, we already have a plush baby Susumu dressed in Mr. Driller colors) so it would be Taizo, Masuyo and Susumu around 1989.

We'd love to see more old school video game cosplayers!

So the unofficial Thursday gathering will stay at 6 pm ~ G2, however I needed to move the Friday Official gathering to 5pm and the location for Friday is G4 because I will be attending the Cosplayer Crane Ceremony at 6 pm. I hope everyone can still make it to the Friday gathering even though it is an hour earlier than I originally had on the first post.

So it looks like I will be cosplaying Larva from Vampire princess Miyu on Thursday @ 6 pm at the G2 platform inside. I may be a little late due to my training meeting happens at the same time :P It's tricky but it gives my photographers a chance to get in the groove.

I also noticed a lot of Fallout cosplayers are going to be at Fanime and I just wanted to post here a message to them:
If you are a Fallout cosplayer and want to get together for Fallout pics (which I would LOVE to do) I will be cosplaying my Fallout Vault 13 cospeep on Friday @ the 5pm Official Old School Gathering and we could meet up @ G4 for a few QUICK Fallout pics around 5:30pm, but I have to be out of there by 5:45 pm to run the Cosplayer Crane Ceremony at G6 at 6 pm on Friday night.

I am going to be mega cosplaying this year! I still have 6 or 7 other cosplays I am doing XD

I might be there, depending on whether I do the Swap Meet or karaoke contest or other Friday things. Not sure what my cosplay will be -- I was planning on Justin Bailey!Samus, but I might do Ulala (Space Channel 5) or Julia (Cowboy Bebop).

Depending on time, may come as Miko Mido from La Blue Girl. Heheh. 8D
If possible, I might bring my tentacle arm. ^^

Okay, tentative plan is that my girlfriend and I will be at -

Friday's gathering as a Sugo Corporation pit crew from Future GPX Cyber Formula (1991 - 1998).

Saturday's gathering as a salaryman (wearing an SD shinkansen) and Tetsu-chan (railway conductor and mascot) from the Densha de Go! games (1996).  Tetsu-chan was always the in-game help character and the salarymen were from the advertising campaign for the PlayStation conversions of the arcade games.

Bumping it up, old school is awesome.

Thank you so, so, so much for hosting this gathering, BSaphire.  Realizing that there was an old school gathering is what got my girlfriend and myself into cosplaying in 2014 (her at the age of 29 and myself at 32).  I will treasure the Galaxy Express 999 model kit from Friday's gathering forever!  I hope to see even more cosplayers at Saturday's gathering!

Ah, now I see what happened. The gathering split into two groups at the start and some cosplayers moved back and forth between them.  Thought I was losing my mind that some cosplayers who I could have sworn were there mysteriously disappeared in some pictures.  Great shots!

Unless someone already has their sights set on doing so, I will happily and respectfully host the Old School Gathering in 2016.
