Demon Slayer cosplayer outraged after being given \u201cNezuko cap\u201d at event Instagram: @sparklyhime \/ UfotableA Demon Slayer cosplayer is outraged after she was handed a \u201cNezuko cap\u201d ticket at a convention by a random stranger because there were \u201ctoo many\u201d people dressed up as the popular Kamado sibling at the event. Cosplayers are some of the most talented individuals on the planet as they recreate costumes from popular culture such as anime and video games, and literally bring characters to life. Some outfits can take days, weeks, and even months to finish and perfect, showing just how dedicated some are to their craft. 24-year-old cosplay artist Faye Argentum attended Katsucon 2020 from February 14th-16th as Demon Slayer sister Nezuko Kamado, and was left stunned after a group of girls gave her a \u201ccap\u201d ticket because there were \u201ctoo many\u201d outfits of the character at the convention. Nezuko cosplay \u201ccap\u201d On February 20, Faye shared a screencap of her friend \u2018ubehime\u2019s Instagram Story which showed a photograph of the cosplayer holding up the ticket which read \u201cNezuko cosplay cap #3\u201d alongside the caption \u201cReal talk, some girls were handing these dumb tickets out, saying there was too many Nezuko and I\u2019m like ??? who the f**k are you?\u201d Alongside the screenshot, her tweet expressed how she felt \u201cangry\u201d and \u201csad\u201d over receiving the card due to the fact that handing things like that out could make other people feel bad about their own hard work. \u201cSome a**hole literally gave this to me [at Katsucon]. The audacity. I hate con goers. Like, do you think it\u2019s cute? What reaction were you expecting?? I\u2019m sad\/angry for other nezuko cosplayers that go let this too cause this kinda thing can make you feel bad about your cosplays,\u201d she said. In a follow-up tweet, the cosplayer said that it isn\u2019t funny at all. \u201cTo be honest, if I got this kinda thing like while cosplaying a few years ago I would\u2019ve gotten really upset, so I\u2019m just feeling for the people that did get genuinely upset about it. I saw it, got angry for a bit, then was okay. But this stuff isn\u2019t funny, like at all.\u201d tbh if I got this kinda thing like while cosplaying a few years ago I would\u2019ve gotten really upset, so I\u2019m just feeling for the people that did get genuinely upset about it. I saw it, got angry for a bit, then was okay. But This stuff isn\u2019t funny, like at all. \u2014 faye (@sparklyhime) February 20, 2020 After people started to point out that the \u201ccap\u201d was a running gag among fans of the series, Faye spoke out again, this time to warn people that even if that is the case, it can still really affect someone\u2019s confidence. \u201cI get that the whole thing is supposed to be a joke\/meme, but that doesn\u2019t make it harmless to everyone. So just\u2026.be nice to people?? It\u2019s not hard,\u201d she said. \u201cI was unaware of it, I was just handed this by girls that were all giggly about it and said there\u2019s a nezuko cosplay cap cause there\u2019s too many and walked away before I could react,\u201d she continued. \u201cSo, if I was in on the meme I would\u2019ve understood more? But I still don\u2019t think it\u2019s that funny.\u201d I was unaware of it, I was just handed this by girls that were all giggly about it and said there\u2019s a nezuko cosplay cap cause there\u2019s too many and walked away before I could react so, if I was in on the meme I would\u2019ve understood more? But I still don\u2019t think it\u2019s that funny \u2014 faye (@sparklyhime) February 21, 2020 Despite being a \u201cmeme,\u201d Faye\u2019s awareness of the situation has raised the question of why it matters whether a lot of people are cosplaying as the same character because if you\u2019re a fan of something, you should be able to express that in whatever way, shape, or form you\u2019d like to.
