I don't know if people have read it already, but since we 'were' on the subject matter of cosplay, I feel inclined to share this with you... hence the repost.
See, there is that problem... what IF You look like an anime character?!
Most people think thats impossible, but I beg to differ...
A friend of mine in New Zealand looks like Alexander Anderson (or that suicidal priest with twin blades, who give pansy paladins a new name) from Hellsing... and I must say, his uncanny resemblance 'might' earn him a spot in the movie if they ever decide to make one
If ya don't believe me, consider these... pics...

"Lo, there do I see my father. Lo, there do I see my mother, my sisters, and my brothers. Lo, there do I see the line of my people. They do call to me. They bid me take my place among them. In the halls of Valhalla. Where the brave, may live, forever."
Oh please, its not like you will look picture perfect via a 2D art. Come on. But this is the next closest thing :p
