I found a site on youtube for Asian people who hate westerners Cosplaying. I was like,"Wtf?" at first. They were stating that cosplayers in western countries are racist for cosplaying. I don't agree with this considering people are just dressing up to have fun. (By the way, I am not Asian, I am from the USA) Anyway, here's the site if you guys are interested. http://www.youtube.com/user/VeryProudAsian

If memory serves me correctly, that was made by a troll who used those videos on the Cosplay & Conventions forum.
The name's really familiar, anyway.

"Now, lets see what's wrong. ♥" Ahhhh, I see you've found PAK.... A.k.a. Proud Asian Kid. He usually comes on gaia every now and then to rant about his beliefs. But don't worry. He's just full of bull s**t. And he goes on other anime sites too, so it's not just youtube and gaia. : / But yeah, don't let him get to you. He's not even asian himself.

Ignore those. Nothing good comes out of them and it only makes people racist. Cosplay is for fun and not for only one ethnicity. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

Stuff like that makes me laugh most of the time. It's so ridiculous contraditing to what they're trying to say. (By calling us racist and saying they're better, THEY'RE being racist.)
But then I get sad sometimes because I realize that there probably really are people that think that way.
Even if the person's a troll and just doing it to get people mad, SOMEONE came up with the idea. xO

Mirialiah Stuff like that makes me laugh most of the time. It's so ridiculous contraditing to what they're trying to say. (By calling us racist and saying they're better, THEY'RE being racist.) Totally agree with that. But yeah I remember coming across it before. Truthfully it is just diging up the good Asian cosplayers with good photography and photoshop and putting them against the bad to medium Caucasian ones with no photoshop and mediocre photography. he can find. Totally a fair fight rolleyes It is just a troll. Just ignore it, give it no food and all is well.

Meh. i just ignore it. it's like the idiots that say the only true "Mangaka" are Japanese. "Mangaka" translates to Cartoonist for those who don't know, but is used mainly for Manga artists. To each their own opinion. No matter how F-ing stupid it is.

God! That pisses me off! If Aamerica is racist why do we accept legal border crossers of any race into our country and allow them to make the best that they can in life. Not to mention, isn't it Asian characters we are coplaying? (Excuse me while I rant some more! I am very mad at this!) God! Racist people piss me off! Why can't this world realise, that if we go back about 6 generations, you are related to just about everyone in you classrooms. And if we go all the way back, we are all related! Just being a different "race" gives you no right to be racist! And there is only one "race" and that is humankind. Am I right?

(I have not seen the video yet, but I read all the comments) I am Mexican, so if I want 2 find a character that I can cosplay well I am very limited (because of the color of my skin). That still has not stopped me from cosplaying (apparently I make a good mexican Light and Ryuho). I am used 2 hearing racist comments about Mexicans everywhere. So finding some1 that thinks only Asians should cosplay is not a surprise 2 me. I really don't though I do what I feel like doing. Besides there are cosplay that look super awesome with depending on ur skin color such as Tousen from Bleach, K' from KOF. So we should appreciate our own race as well as others. We are all just different colors in a big box of crayons and we should work 2gether 2 make a great drawing called earth.
