- Hey jotatoes, what's up?
I think that's going to be my new intro.
It's time for a change.
I hope you guys are doing well.
I decided that I'd love to do a lot more fashion videos
in the future.
I thought I might need a little fashion studio.
So I rearranged our office
and built this cozy little corner.
Curtain rod fell on my head the first time
I was sitting here but we moved.
I recently started to watch anime again
together with Dongin.
As a kid, I watched a lot
of series like Sailor Moon, Jeanne d'Arc, Digimon, Pokemon,
all of that stuff.
And I always wanted to try out cosplaying
but somehow I never really got myself to try it.
Today is the day.
Dongin is also a big fan of anime,
so I thought he might be happy to see me try out some
of his fave characters' outfits.
Okay, so first of all, let's see what we got here.
I got four outfits in total and the first one,
can you tell?
The first one is just a plain maid outfit.
It's not belonging to a specific character.
I just wanted to start out simple
to not make him fall off the chair instantly, right?
But it looks like this.
I'm really excited to try it on.
So like this little head piece right here.
That's gonna be fun.
The second one is one of my faves.
Wait a minute.
I don't know how many
of you guys actually know these characters
but I think this one is pretty popular.
Her name is Zero Two from Darling in the Franxx
and it's the whole body suit.
I mean, it looks pretty tight.
I really wonder if it's my size.
Even got gloves.
And also this little headpiece came with it.
Yeah, that looks nice.
This is so pretty.
Oh, I love the color.
I think it goes down to my butt.
That's pretty cool.
I think it would take me a hundred years
to grow my hair this long.
The third one guys, you will probably all know her.
♪ Sailor Moon ♪
Right, it's Sailor Moon.
I love my childhood.
My god, these wigs are losing so much hair.
Oh my god.
Guys, I always wanted to own this.
I'm fulfilling myself a childhood dream here, okay?
Yes.
Look at these pretty bows.
Oh my god, I can't.
How am I supposed to attach these?
The last one we're going
to try out today is the main character
of Kakegurui, Yumeko.
And this one is definitely one
of my top three favorite animes.
What's that?
Oh, right!
It's pretty creepy.
Her school uniform.
This one looks pretty short.
Well, let's see.
So this anime is about gambling.
I don't gamble myself
but I just love the tension in each episode.
It's pretty epic.
And Yumeko is just very disturbing,
which I like about her.
Okay guys, are you ready?
Are you ready for the ride?
I can't wait.
Let's go.
Welcome to my new studio.
(clapping)
How do you like it?
- I love it!
- Oh, I prepared something for you.
Only for special guests.
(mellow music)
- Is it good?
- Yeah. - Yeah?
Today, we're rating anime cosplays.
- Anime.
Some of you might know but I am a certified huge weeb.
- Please tell us about today's rating system.
- Oh yeah.
So there are a few different criteria
that I will assess today.
How close is it to the original?
Do I like the character?
Like there's some character.
- I hope so.
- Some characters, I don't want to say names
but like Sakura.
Some characters that I do not like as much.
Do I like the colors?
How well do they fit you? - Okay so.
- The functionality.
Like I will be rating all these different criteria
- Okay. - then I will use
my complicated and sophisticated rating formula
and give you a rating, one out of 10.
- Okay, just do what you must.
I'm going to go and put on the first outfit
in my changing room.
- You do know that the guys outside can see you.
(laughs) - Oh, that's fine.
Are you ready?
- I'm ready.
- How do you like it, master?
- Well, yeah.
(laughs)
I dig it. - Yeah, do you?
- I am confused because I'm like, I'm just trying
to figure out which character it is.
- It's not a character yet.
I just wanted to try it
because it's like a popular outfit, right?
- Yeah yeah, I like it.
Sweet, smile, yeah. - Oh yeah.
I could work in the maid cafe
- Yeah. - somewhere in Tokyo.
- Let's go for the rating.
Like character wise, you know, I made that a category
and try harder.
It's a one out of 10.
(laughs)
- What?
- Because you're not a character.
You're not playing a character.
- I can play a character if you want.
- That's not what I mean.
That's not what I mean.
Not like a anime character.
Stop clouding my judgment.
It fits you. - Come on, it's nice!
- It fits you really well.
Yeah, it's very nice. - Right?
- Overall, very frilly. - Right?
- It looks really really warm.
- Yeah and it's pretty safe.
My butt doesn't peak out.
Well at least I hope so.
- So now we have a problem because I really like it
but two of my main criteria are based
on a specific - Character.
- character you're playing.
- I'm sorry. - And, so yeah.
- I just really wanted to try this out, you know?
- Since I can't rate how close it is
to the original, it gets a--
- How maid-y is it?
- Okay, now that's a.
I don't know.
I'm not feeling it.
(laughs)
- Why?
- I'm not feeling it.
I'm not feeling it - I'm really giving
my best here, okay? - as a character.
You are here just to serve.
Right? - Right.
Yeah, I am.
- Still giving me kind of dominant vibes here, so.
- Look, I'm cleaning the plants.
(laughs)
- I know.
It kind of scares me but it looks bomb,
so we'll put it together in a total rating of five.
- Okay.
Did you notice the socks?
It really enhanced the chubby faces on my knees.
Can you see that?
I got some really friendly faces on both of my knees.
Are you, are you attracted to this?
- I am, but I came here
with a different expectation, you know.
I came here to see anime cosplays.
You didn't deliver that, so. - Oh, I can give you that.
I will give you the anime characters you came for.
(mellow music)
- I guess I'll have
to get that Crunchyroll subscription after all.

- I don't know.
(laughs)
- [Farina] Close your eyes.
- (laughs) I'm getting scared now.
(laughs)
Should I be scared?
- No, you shouldn't.
Three, two, one.
- [Woman] Wow!
(laughs)
- Zero Two.
- Yeah. - Yes!
- It's cool, right?
- It's pretty cool, yes.
- I like it.
Yeah, I mean it was a bit too loose so,
- Yeah. - I had to use
like the safety pin here.
I love the wig.
- Yeah. - It's such a pretty pink.
- I get what you mean.
It's a bit like.
- Yeah, it's a bit loose on some parts.
Also the fingers are like way too long.
I should've ordered the smaller size.
- Oh, you even have the horns.
- Yeah. - Cool.
- Want to touch my horns?
- Wow. (laughs)
- I definitely love that look.
Let's go out shopping like that.
(laughs)
- You got to do the red--
- The red eyes, right? - The red eyes, yeah.
- Yeah, I might try this.
Also some contact lenses.
She has red eyes, right?
- I think she has green eyes.
- Really? - Yeah.
- Green eyes.
Oh okay, so I don't need lenses.
- 10 out of 10 would be your darling.
- Yeah.
- And so (laughs)-- - Darling.
- Closer to the original.
Outfit, a bit loose but yeah.
- A bit loose, yeah. - Yeah.
- But it's from Amazon, I mean.
- Oh really?
- Yeah, it's pretty good.
- I guess the makeup would definitely be--
- Yeah, I know.
- be the icing on top. - I just didn't have
enough time to do it.
(laughs)
- I give it eight out of 10
for how close it is to the original.
- Eight?
What would be a 10?
- You know, if like the outfit isn't loose
and like all of these things are like actual ornaments.
Is that being too hard?
- Yeah, these are all Amazon costumes.
What do you expect?
- Can you get into character?
- Yeah, of course I can.
(laughs)
Okay, no.
(laughs)
- You wanted to win me, right?
- Yeah, I know.
- You got to say, darling.
- Darling.
Darling.
Look at me, darling.
(laughs)
- Okay, it was pretty spot on like, seven.
I like, I like Zero two, yeah.
I like her.
- But I don't like you.
- You got to like me.
She's like, she's like--
- Yeah, she's like very (speaks foreign language).
Uh, I don't like you,
but I need you so much. - Okay, no.
I think you have very great like figure for cosplaying.
- Thank you. - These kind of
like tight outfits.
Overall, I give it an eight
out of 10. - Okay, thanks.
- 10 out of 10 if you could actually turn
into a robot dinosaur thing.
- Oh, I can.
(laughs)
Off to the next one.
(upbeat music)
- Nice!
(speaks foreign language)
- Well.
- This costume is pretty detailed.
This ribbon in the back looks,
looks like it's sad. - It's so sad, right?
I mean the wig, I don't, I don't know.
I don't really know. - I dig the anime bang
in the middle.
- I like the gloves a lot
but the socks are squeezing my thighs
too much. - Oh, yeah.
It looks suffocating.
- I don't really know.
I don't really feel myself in this
and I thought I was like living my dream now.
More like budget moon.
- Budget moon. - Right?
Maybe I just need the right pose.
- I think you got to do-- - No.
Oh, right. - Is it like this?
(laughs)
- Oh my god.
- Oh my god, are you even
a Sailor Moon fan? - Yeah, I am
but it's like, that was like 23 years ago
or something like that.
I don't know.
- Do kids nowadays not know Sailor Moon?
- I don't know.
- Is there a remake?
- The wig is, it's kind of weird, right?
- I don't know. - I mean, it's cute, but--
- I think it's okay, I think you're just not used
to like having that hair - I'm not used to it.
- in your face. - Yeah.
- This anime style. - Right.
- Is that supposed
to be like? - Yeah, this is supposed
to be choker but--
- It doesn't really like--
- It doesn't choke me. - choke.
I'll give you one more chance
to give me your best Sailor Moon pose.
- Okay, wait.
(speaks foreign language)
(laughs)
Oh, god.
No.
- What's macht des mondes in English?
- [Farina] Power of the moon, I think.
I don't know. - Yeah?
Okay.
- Yeah, that was my best impression.
- All right, I don't feel
the positive Sailor Moon vibes from you.
- Me neither.
- You got to be confident and you know, like.
(bell ringing)
Sailor Moon is all about like empowerment.
Why are you crying?
(laughs)
Why are you crying?
- I don't know.
(laughs)
- Are you okay?
(laughs)
- I'm okay.
(laughs)
- For character, I'll give you a seven, okay?
- Yeah. - Because I know deep
inside, I know deep inside there's a Sailor Moon.
(laughs)
Just not a good time, not a good time.
Sailor Moon actually was my favorite.
- My fave was Sailor Mars.
- Yeah? - Yeah.
She was like so confident.
- Yeah, Sailor Mars.
Is that with black hair?
- Yeah, with the red dress.
- Yeah, yeah.
It's a seven.
- Okay. - It's a seven, okay?
It's a seven.

with me now. - Yumeko.
No, Yumeko, Yumeko. - Yumeko, right.
- Okay, now. - It's cool, huh?
- It's really cool.
It's really cool. - I'm definitely feeling
myself a lot more in the baddie characters, you know?
- Yeah, you know this top part?
This could be like working in a hotel.
(laughs)
- Yeah, that's true. - Right?
And the bottom part really makes it, I like
when you where skirts.
- The thighs, again, are very like, very tight.
Do you remember this one?
- Oh.
(laughs)
- The pet tag.
- It's pretty cool. - It's optional.
- Now I'm really excited for your best Yumeko impression.
- Oh my god.

(laughs)
- Was that good enough?
- Yeah.
You do realize that we share the office.
- Yeah.
Oh, it's yours now.

It's getting kind of kinky.
I like it.
- I really love her character.
Like she's so disturbing but so cool
at the same time. - She's cool.
She's cool. - Right?
- She's crazy. - Yeah.
- She's crazy though but she's pretty cool.
She got it all figured out for herself
and she knows what she wants, right?
- Yeah, she's like just so smart.
- Yeah.
I think the character fits you because you're smart.
You know what you want.
- Oh, I do.
- You're crazy.
(laughs)
- Am I? - Yeah and yeah, that laugh.
That was a good one.
(laugh) See, see?
There again.
You're doing it again.
Yeah, awesome, yes. - No.
Imagine the deck of cards in my hand?
- It's pretty well-made like. - Right?
- Considering like, I'm assuming they're all like
around the same budget.
How close is it to the original?
I say 8.5. - Eight?
Ah, ooh.
- Yeah and then for the character,
the character itself, I like her.
Nine out of 10.
I don't even know what I'm rating anymore.
So this one.
- I forgot all the ratings. - Yeah.
- Oh my god.
- Overall rating, this one gets 8.9.
- 8.9?
Oh well, that's pretty random but that's good.
- Yeah. - Is it the winner?
- I think so, yeah. - Yeah?
- Yeah. - Oh.
