I'm assuming, since you joined last week, that the Club cosplayers you're getting together aren't on this forum?

I bring it up because I'm curious how many hosts you can get together with just your group.

On the forum here we have about one and a half Clubs from my memory. If we could get 3 total casts together to work a Host Club Room then I think we could put together not just a great event, but one where everybody has a chance to shine and doesn't hae to invest as much time into the whole panel.

Now, are any of you hosts going to make costumes other than the uniform blazer? Because if you guys want to do something that becomes an actual event then I suggest you start coordinating now.

Heh heh, silly Tom. First things first.
Who would be willing to participate in an official Kumoricon Host Club event (panel type tea party)?

Hazuza · « **Reply #251 on:** January 15, 2007, 03:56:58 pm »

You guys are acting just like me when I first went to this convention XD

And I'd love the idea of the host's own panel! It would be great! Perfect!

Would anyone be allowed in, or would they HAVE to be cosplaying? Because even if it was to see the hosts, there's no way in HELL that you're getting me into a bright yellow dress!!

everyone in our group is really excreted about it!

... uh... no comment.

Well, the idea was that the Hosts would be cosplaying as their characters and serving snacks and "tea" to the people that come to the event. It wouldn't really be a panel but it would take one of the spots on the schedule and would be run by people other than official kumoricon staff, like panels usually are.

To visit and swoon in front of the charming gentlemen of the Host club you would just need to be at the convention. No costumes required.

Hazuza · « **Reply #253 on:** January 15, 2007, 05:07:32 pm »

Well yay for that, then

And I'm just calling it a panel because... er... I don't exactly know what to call it .-.

Last year there was a random panel of doom, and it wasn't run by staff

Oh gawd that does sound like a great idea. I can see that being so much fun. ^_^

Mr.Mustash, have you met programming@kumoricon.com ?

I'd suggest a PM on the message board here first actually. Her name is Nyco27 i think.

TomtheFanboy · « **Reply #259 on:** January 16, 2007, 09:26:15 am »

Hmmm.... It seems we're short on Hunny-Samas.
I think we only have one this year, two if that adorable kid from last year doesn't have a growth spurt.

I think i've got the answer though. Someone needs to build a Hunny plushy. That way Mori can carry him arround no matter how tall/strong the Mori cosplayer is!

Who can make big plushies?

totemo_oishii · « **Reply #260 on:** January 16, 2007, 09:32:12 am »

i can! ...kind of. :3

Maybe we should recruit Catgirl Rin Rin. She can make plushies.

TomtheFanboy · « **Reply #262 on:** January 17, 2007, 07:19:56 am »

I'm going to be starting some threads on the forum tonight when I have time to sit and write things up properly (most of my posts are made at work, when I should be working).

I'll make sure that I make a plushy thread.

The best kind of Hunny would be one that was poseable and could stand on it's own. This means it would need wire inside, and possibly little shoes. If it had mitten hands (a thumb and a big mitt of fingers) then it could be posed holding things, like a specially prepared plate of cake or a teacup. I think that the best p[ossible version would have velcro on the head so that we could change the face. We could have a sort of Mr Potato Head thing with velcro so we could put different eyes on him or a different mouth. that way we could have like; scary morning Hunny and cheerful Hunny and mouthfull of cake Hunny and pouty Hunny all in the same plushy. It sounds complicated but the face thing could be accomplished with good paper and some cheap velcro strips. The hard part is building a poseable pluch kid of the proper size.

However, I must admit that it would be worth any money I spent to be the guy with the poseable Hunny Plushy. OK that sounded creepy, but I would definitely pay for something like this to be built. It'd be better then finding one of those big scary boy dolls like "My Buddy" and drewwing him up.

totemo_oishii · « **Reply #263 on:** January 17, 2007, 08:50:36 am »

if you want a hunny, i don't have to cosplay haruhi and be hunny instead. (did that make sense?) i'll just need a blond wig. ^w^

TomtheFanboy · « **Reply #264 on:** January 17, 2007, 09:15:59 am »

That'd be cool Oishii, but I want to do the plushy thing so that Hunny can be carried around by people who aren't strong enough to lift a whole person onto their shoulders.

I'm not trying to demean cosplayers.

totemo_oishii · « **Reply #265 on:** January 17, 2007, 10:08:55 am »

i'm 5 foot 1 inch, and i weigh 100 lbs. ^___^
(i don't think i'm gonna grow anymore either.)

Kayani_Neko · « **Reply #266 on:** January 19, 2007, 02:55:29 pm »

Yeah! That'd be cute! x3

If I get my hair cut, I'll be cosplaying as Kaoru... If I have a boyfriend then, I'll make them cosplay as Hikaru.
And considering all my boyfriends so far have been willing to do almost anything for me, (i.e. swimming and dancing) I think we'll have a Hikaru. xD;
...
Hopefully. o.o;;

If not, I'll find some way to sucker either Koto or Lemon into being the Hikaru to my Kaoru. xD

If I don't get my hair cut, I'll be crossplaying as a crossdressing girl. xD
Or Bossa-Nova-Chii... I'm still debating. ^^;

totemo_oishii · « **Reply #267 on:** January 21, 2007, 09:57:58 am »

...during the con, we NEED to have a game of 'kick the can'. :3 anyone interested?
(this would also make a great photo op, i think!)

Nekochi · « **Reply #269 on:** January 21, 2007, 07:04:52 pm »

This sounds like so much fun. I'm going as Chika-kun (Hunny's little brother who looks older than him and is much more serious and finds Hunny creepy and continously calls him an alien. Whoo~ Run on sentance.) and I was wondering... Would it be okay for me to be in the room and be like an anti-host and run away from fan girls and call every aliens?

totemo_oishii · « **Reply #270 on:** January 21, 2007, 08:39:45 pm »

hurrah~!!! not only kick the can, but that game that's like "red light green light"! oh, fun commoner games. X3

@nekochi - ahhh, chika-kun! wonderful. i hope i see you, i definately want a picture with you. ^___^ i'm going to be hunny, so ... we can be OOC and be happy brothers, hehe. :3

Glad to know someone else is excited that there will be a Chika-kun.

We could also do a picture of us mock fighting. Though that may not work so well since I'm so unathletic. XD But yeah... I'm uber excited to go as Chika-kun. I love his character and the middle school uniform is pretty cool. Plus he's just so cute!

By the way... How tall are you? I'm 5'6". It would be adorable if you were like a foot or more shorter than me but I kind of doubt you are. XD

Also... I'm not exactly sure how to play kick the can. Is it as simple as it sounds or is there a point to it? XD *sounds like one of those snooty rich people she's going to cosplaying as*

totemo_oishii · « **Reply #273 on:** January 22, 2007, 05:47:35 pm »

@nekochi

i'm *almost* 5'2", you're still a good bit taller than me. ^w^

as for kick the can ... i think it's just what it sounds like. XD i should watch that episode again. :3

TomtheFanboy · « **Reply #274 on:** January 23, 2007, 09:50:05 am »

*applauds* Hooray for MrMustash!

I'm assuming you're the Ouran fan that already contacted Programming about having an event?

I was asking Brenda some probing questions about the hotel layout to find out where a tearoom would go and she said that she'd already been asked about it by "the Ouran fans".

So now i'm trying to get an idea of just how many "meet-ups" and other sorts of parties can be held there since it is also supposed to be the RPG room at the moment and I can't really see that going well.

omg I was finally able to login! I've trying to comment on here for, like, the last week, and it just wouldn't let me login, no matter what I did. It finally worked!!! *dances*

*ahem* sorry about that. Anyway, I love the idea of having a room where Ouran hosts gather, serve tea, etc. You could even almost charge people, or at least have a place for donations, to help pay for all the and snacks.

I think you should especually try to get the room on some evening, and have a Special Cake Night. It would be so awesome!

Anyway, my friends and I will definitely be seeking you all out.

totemo_oishii · « **Reply #278 on:** February 04, 2007, 01:40:16 pm »

i'm starting to wonder if i should cosplay hunny in his middle school uniform - the yellow one. it's probably harder to put together than the blue blazer uniform, but i want to add some variety to the ouran cosplays. what do you think?

TomtheFanboy · « **Reply #279 on:** February 05, 2007, 11:09:09 am »

So who all is making costumes other than the standard blue blazers?

*tries not to make Buckaroo Banzai jokes*

totemo_oishii · « **Reply #280 on:** February 05, 2007, 08:38:36 pm »

i'll be middle-schooler hunny if i can get someone to help me make the jacket. :3 i'm currently asking around, i'll update you guys if i do. ^w^

Well since Chika-kun isn't in High School I'll be doing the middle school uniform.

@ totemo_oishii:
Aren't the uniforms white with a yellow rim? Or are they different in the manga? I haven't read the manga in quite awhile and so I'll be doing the uniform from the anime.

TomtheFanboy · « **Reply #282 on:** February 08, 2007, 02:00:26 pm »

middle school uniforms. Hmmmm....

Bwahaha! OK so maybe the Host Club cosplayers should have a little contest. If two people are playing the same character the shorter of the two has to wear a middle school blazer.
Not really, but that'd be funny.

Not so good for the Ouran event since technically the Host Club didn't exist until they were in High School but still funny.

totemo_oishii · « **Reply #283 on:** February 08, 2007, 06:01:17 pm »

nekochi :

i've been gathering lots of screencaps from the episodes that include the middle school uniforms, and it seems they're more of a light cream color rather than white, and the rims are a little more golden than yellow...

are you making yours? :3 if so, i'd love to know what kind of pattern i would use.

I'm going to make mine. I haven't even picked out fabric yet so I definitly don't have a pattern. This will be my first time making anything besides a pillow case so... XD Luckily my mom is pretty good as sewing so I'll have some help. :3 Also, would you mind passing on those screenshots? I haven't bothered... err... had time to make any yet. :wink:

i asked some people on the cosplay.com forums, and they said it's more of an off-white rather than creme or plain white. here are some screenshots! ♥

Nekochi · « **Reply #286 on:** February 09, 2007, 09:29:44 pm »

Thank you, those are very helpful. Especially since I don't have the DVDs or the manga and my only source would be Google or Youtube. Ick! XD Thanks agian.

Edit: Despite my limited resources I decided I might as well take a few screen shots of the lovely Chika-kun. <3

Here are links to some of the better ones as well as a link to the rest of them in my Photobucket.

A pretty good picture of the front. You can see the school patch pretty well in this one.

Look-a-like patch: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=230088282815&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT&ih=013

OMG SHOES!

Chika-kun is all sweaty... o.o <3

I thought this one was pretty intresting because the gold trim looks like rope. I have some trim exactly like this that I got at Wal Mart. It doesn't look like it'd be too hard to sew on either. It's attached to this ribbon like peice that would easily sew inside so only the rope is visible. :3

Rest of the screen shots as well as some cosplay pictures of me as Princess Mars from last year.

totemo_oishii · « **Reply #287 on:** February 10, 2007, 11:51:44 am »

Thanks for more of the references! ^w^

The thing about the gold trim is interesting indeed. I'm still trying to figure out how to go about doing that...hmm. *___* As for the patch, I'll probably end up making that as well.

Lovely Mars costume btw. :3

Nekochi · « **Reply #288 on:** February 10, 2007, 01:42:15 pm »

For the trim I was thinking of using something like this: http://www.joann.com/catalog.jhtml?CATID=156672&PRODID=115150 See how it has a type of lip coming off of the rope? You could use that to sew it onto the jacket. You can find this type of stuff in the home decor section of JoAnn Fabrics or some other crafty type stores. (Wal-Mart Super Centers usually have a place devoted to sewing as well.) I think it would work pretty well for the trim.

And secondly, thank you.

It's really all my mom's work though. (Well I bought the wig but... XD) I just wore it. It was a lot of fun. I hope next time someone compliments me on a cosplay I'll be able to except more of the praise because I'll have made it. Or... At least helped. XD

As for making the patch... I wish you luck! It seems like it would be pretty difficult. Certainly out of my range. And another thing that I've turned to Ebay for... I found a pair of glasses that look just like Chika-kun's!

They are discribed as 'stylish' but personally I think they are pretty ugly. XD

Japanese school uniforms were based on German military academy uniforms. You might try to find a Prussian Cadet jacket pattern or a military cadet pattern with a Prussian collar. Also try to look for patterns that say Nehru Jacket (that guy from India who looked like Dr Evil the Beatles tried to copy) or an English fox hunting jacket with out the collar (sears tried to sell Nehru jackets for kids they flopped so they added collars and sold them as hunting jackets) or dare I say search for a boys Japanese school uniform pattern

Now I shall help and google “Japanese school girl uniform” + Leather
