good anime for fat

[Blackjack Gabbi]

Chuck, Wattson, Captain Phantom, Morrison, andProfessor Birch from Pokémon are some nice chubby men...Also, Phantom has an *awesome* outfit (shame his movie sucked).

...it's kinda short on chubby women, but there's Bertha (possibly anyway, since she's always wearing that heavy coat)...and...um...hmm. Pokémon's *really* short on chubby gals. That's a shame. Although a large Erika would be sweeeeeet...

That's an awesome quote. I'm gonna read it every time I doubt if I should cosplay or not. ^__^

Me and a friend are going to the mall with other peoples and we're cosplaying. I came across this thread when I was on google looking up fat anime characters and then I started looking at images. I found a good one for us.

We're gonna make a paper mache frog head and get a blue robe, maybe some body paint and stuff.

If you're a girl, there are always the females from Real Drive. Aoi Minamo is cutely chubby, and Holon is pretty hot I think. So there are two possibilities for you.

I'm not trying to arguee this person, but I've seen really good looking people who are "fat" but because they wear things that fit them, they look really goood in it. While playing an obivous skinny character can make people look fatter. Also another good thing about playing fat characters is that you are playing another person that other people who are skinnier have a hard time playing. It also makes the "fat" characters look really good and displays nicely in a gathering. I really think that if you are "fat" then play a "fat" character. You can play skinnier characters as well, but fatter characters also need to be played. A lot of anime is all skinny people and it's hard to find "fat" characters. If you do a fat character I would be happy to take pictures of it because that's awesome.

I do agree with this, however I believe big people can pull off slender characters as well so long as its fitting. My friend who's really big cosplayed as Himiko from the getbackers also.

Also, you can also look for BIG characters, for instance Jiraiya from Naruto is BIG but he's not FAT, but even so, his clothes are baggy and such. [He's also the only person I can think of that hasn't already been said XD]

Personally I'd have to agree with the suggestion of Telma. She's a very neat character and her overall appearance isn't bad looking like Gluttony or something. She has nice curves and overall is a lovely heavy woman, and quite busty lol

Personally, I've seen a lot of plus-sized girls pull off some really nice Lulu's from Final Fantasy X, that could work. But really, in the end you should just be whoever you want, but at least consider if the outfit will look flattering for you. A tube top and short-shorts ... er, not so much. A long sleeved dress, school uniform or trench coat? Maybe! <3

For instance, I've known larger girls who've done shrine maiden Miaka from Fushigi Yuugi. It looks good because it's so big and flowing. ^_^ Male characters in trenchcoats and such work nicely for larger guys.

Also, sometimes it's good to go as a "hulking brute" character when you've got a lot of meat to spare. I've seen a taller, heavier guy go as Astaroth from Soul Calibur. Even with an open chest, it worked well.

If I'm going to throw political correctness out the window, the most successful "fat" cosplay I've seen was E. Honda from Street Fighter 2 (the sumo wrestler). That's the only time I've seen a highly obese person wear a shirtless cosplay... and it actually look good, true to the character, and *not* distasteful. :P

i agree with this. just be who you want to be tho

[spectackkled]

i dunno. what is your fat like?

I think it's a good idea to keep this thread active so that anyone else who has the same question can see that there are many options. Also, so people can be aware that cosplay is a very versatile thing and not meant for just one body type.

This type of question has appeared many times and most people won't respond to this thread (especially new people) so just let it die. Plus, this thread was originally for the person who created it, not others.

Forgive me for replying, but I'm surprised nobody brought up the Millennium Earl from D.Gray-man. He's one of my favorite characters
