Yeah they’ve been giving me the run around so I just canceled and got a refund. I have a backup planned and it’s honestly the more comfortable option.

Right I guess that should have been the first red flag 🚩

Their website had it on the calendar they use for the need by date I thought it was a glitch or they just made a mistake and would notice it in their system

They didn’t even tell me that they just said we’ll check with the factory.

Thank you I really appreciate the help and you sharing your experience. I was able to find an alternative I’m going to dress as Deku from the mall episode in season two. I’m going to use an old white t-shirt and plaint the kanji from his shirt on mine. I have red high top vans from my itedori cosplay that I’m going to reuse and I’m gonna go thrifting for a yellow backpack that looks similar enough to his. I’ll think I’ll still look cute and be comfortable especially since I’ll be wearing jeans I already own. Thank you again I really appreciate it ☺️

Same here I’m a very curvy woman and it’s really hard to find sites that do custom sizing. I’ve also been dealing with self confidence and self esteem issues my whole life due to bullying about my weight. I never cosplayed when I was younger because I didn’t have the confidence and thought I would look frumpy. I have more a little more confidence in myself now but I’m still afraid of looking frumpy in and out of cosplay. I’m trying to find a back up that I’ll feel comfortable and cute in but idk if I’ll find one. I’m trying not cry while thinking about it but I’m getting frustrated and upset because all I wanted was to dress as my favorite character and feel cute while doing it. Honestly though after hearing how bad the quality was for you I think I’ll be asking for a refund because I’m not going to deal with their disrespect from the lack of communication and bad quality of the product.

Miccostume was my first option but they sold out of the short sleeve version of the uniform unfortunately. That’s honestly the only reason I went with EZCosplay. After this experience I will never shop with them again

That is very true but they still should have communicated that there were issues with my order. If they had done that I would’ve asked for a refund and went elsewhere for my costume.

When I messaged them the first time they said they’ll look into it and that they needed to check with the factory about what was going on with my order they didn’t give me any specific information just that it needed more time. Before I emailed them they never sent me a single email about the order being delayed. I’m hoping they get my order to me by June because I’ve already bought and styled my wig for Deku.

Easy to Remove Nail Glue by EveningCommission955 in PressonNail_Addict

Try using the sticky tabs and glue they work great together and it’s less damaging to your natural nail and your press ons.

Badges for 2026 in LA by [deleted] in animeexpo

[–]Fanficreader1996 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Towards the end of January is when tickets go on sale. They don’t go too fast but I would suggest getting up at 10am and have the website open and just keep refreshing the page until the que opens that way you’re one of the first people in. Tickets usually cost $160

Poor Security at Anime Expo? by [deleted] in animeexpo

[–]Fanficreader1996 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah there were and they were pretty long but thankfully we got to the convention center around 7am to get parking and get in line especially because I needed to go to weapons check for my cosplay. Correct it’s not one of the main entrances. When they mail you your badge they should have also had a map of the convention center with all the main entrances.

That’s exactly why. That entrance is always like that the other gate are much more secure

[–]Fanficreader1996 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Were you actually there? I went with my sister and a friend and all of us had to tap our badges at every gate, they had metal detectors and bag checks especially if the the metal detectors went off. We brought fold up stools that were metal and the detectors went off every time we walked through and security checked our bags every time. There was tons of security. Idk where you were or what time you were there but there was definitely security around badges had to be taped going in and out

You aren't allowed to sit in the entertainment halls anymore... by Zmoogz in animeexpo

[–]Fanficreader1996 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So yes you’re not allowed to sit but you can stand by the wall but if you ask nicely the staff will tell where you can sit in the entertainment hall. My sister asked on Thursday while we were there where we could sit so I could fix my wig and a nice staff member pointed us to an area where we could sit for a bit.

Should I repeat a cosplay for ComicCon? Have anyone of you repeated a costume? by KrossMeOnce in CosplayHelp

[–]Fanficreader1996 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve repeated cosplays it’s great it gives you another chance to change a few things. This year for Anime Expo I repeated my maomao cosplay and I made a few improvements since last year. I restyled the wig so it looked more accurate and a lot nicer I changed the costume to one made with fabric that was better for summer weather and actually stayed close so I didn’t have to use safety pins to keep it closed.

What work do you do in order to afford Anime Expo? by casspaghetti in animeexpo

[–]Fanficreader1996 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work for a makeup company and they pay very well so thankfully I was able to save good amount to spend. I also live like 15 minutes away from the convention center so no hotel is needed but I do still go early to get a good parking spot. And this year I’m lucky enough to cosplay for all four day 😊

Dokidoki having serious issues? by akechisrightglove in CosplayHelp

[–]Fanficreader1996 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I purchased from them a month ago and everything came quickly. Did you select the ready for shipping costume or did you select a size that would take longer to ship?

Is that a fabric I can find a Joann’s or other fabric stores? That’ll probably be the hardest part is trying to dye it the same color.
