Ok so I haven't been to Acen in years and now I'm finally going again and like every other time I'm cosplaying. I decided I wanted to cosplay a protagonist from the persona series and since i have a feeling there are gonna be TONS of persona 4 cosplayers with the release of the anime i decided I'm going with the lesser known Persona 1 series and it's Protagonist, the boy with the pierced ear.

Only issue is it's really hard to find the costume. I was wondering if anyone knew where to find a good looking version of the costume on a legit site. I did find one version but the collar is a little different ( not too bad though) and ill buy it but id like some input on anyone who might know where to get a good one :)

Best of luck! I found the female uniform from the game but it doesn't seem like the male uniform is easy to find. It may be cutting it too close to get a commission done but you could check it out. A lot of places take orders. Otherwise eBay is probably your best bet.

Smoothies and yogurt should help!

Try that weird but yummy Dr. Oz smoothie berry/banana thingamajigit or Jamba juice to lose the pounds! Also eat fresh fruit as well.

Good luck! I hope to act fangirlish since nobody does P1!

There we go my cosplay :) i know the hair is wrong i have to let it grow some more but itll be ready for con time XD
Also my shoes are the exact kind he wears and i noticed he wears black watch so ill have that as well.

( also i tip my hat to hello cosplay. they do a wonderful job. even if it took a long time. and it only took 3 days to arrive. and the collar is perfect just like a real uniform. i just need to find a way to make it stick. i know a good way so no worries :) )
