I've never heard about this before, whatt are these girls talking about, and what is it called? Its not fanservice! Whats the proper term for it?

[Ranshiin]

I don't know ... that looks like some sort of master/slave thing o_o;


Also this post is because of a worthy mention - PORTAL GUN! woot.

I ask because I saw in another video 2 girls pretended to be male naroto characters and kissed in that so I think its a thing, but I dont know what its called. I wanted to find out more about this, its just so weird that girls do this.

Wait ... you mean cosplay?

That's the term used for people who dress up as anime/comic/cartoon/video game characters. o_o

The 2 girls pretending to be 2 guys and a male couple specifically and doing poses and acts that are sexy for pictures specifically. Ive seen it before and they dont explain it completely in the video, so i wanted to know more about it.

o.O umm yes, if you mean just dressing up as a character, Ranshiin said it, 'Cosplaying'
But other than that, what the girl is saying, is true. Fan service is when cosplayers or dressed up individuals do scandalous poses and scenes for the viewers. But fan service could also mean when an otaku photographer asks a cosplayer/group to do a scene [battle or just romance] from the anime, or just what the viewers have always wanted to see those characters they have cosplayed to do. [for example, naruto and sasuke. In the anime, they really aren't a yaoi couple, but a viewer might want them to be, so they ask the cosplayers to hug or kiss each other] Which is what the girl is pretty much trying to say.

Yup, that's cosplay for you dude.

I mean the specific cosplay of 2 girls doing 'yaoi' when they are actually girls. I know its called crossplaay but ive seen this specific thing of 2 girls cosplaying as a male couple and pretending to kiss and watever, so i want to know what that specificaloly is called. Fanservice as i know is just general sexy stuff. This is too specific too not be its own thing.

It just called cosplay. Nothing more, nothing less.

Fan service really is not just 'sexy stuff'. It is a scene that viewers want to see that has nothing to do with the real anime. Therefore it can be best friends in an anime, but they have the cosplayers of the character fight each other, just cuz. Fan service consist of usually two or more people, and it would be a skit as well.

And to be honest, I do not believe there is such a word you are looking for. I am racking my cosplaying brain, but nothing. .. Though I'm still trying if there is actually a term. .___. [but more than likely no ... ]

Edit: and should this really be in the cosplay section? lol

I dont know where this would go, lol. And yea it seems common enough that there would be a term explictly for this, but I dont know what it is. Maybe its new enough that it doesnt have a name yet.

Once again, just cosplay, no more, no less.

Normal cosplay doesnt just concentrate on girls playing as guys and specifically requesting that they portray a male relationship. but i guess it doesnt get any more spcific than that
