Number Two's eyes narrowed and became what are known in the Shouting and Killing People trade as cold slits, the idea presumable being to give your opponent the impression that you have lost your glasses or are having difficulty keeping awake. Why this is frightening is an, as yet, unresolved problem.

We all know about the hilarious but shameful farce that is American cosplay. It has been the source of ridicule and hilarity for us normal people for a long time now. But sometimes legitimately good/hilarious cosplay pops up.

Discuss.

...I think it works not because he has a good costume, but because he has the mannerisms and laugh down.

Well, I lasted eight seconds.  I guess that is a little longer than I tolerate most cosplaying idiots.

I been through a number of anime cons and there are a number of real good cosplayers, but most of them are awful. Kefka cosplayer is actually good and managed to pull off the laugh. Funny video.

I didn't watch the whole video due to a little something I like to call self-respect, but that Kefka dude did a pretty good job. Cosplay is easy to make fun of but I mean, whatever, I'm sure people have fun at them so... good for them....

I still think the greatest cosplay I've ever done is on the FFXII release, myself and 2 friends went dressed as a giant ATB bar... I wish I had pictures, I think they've been circulating around GameStop employees... I heard we won some kind of competition for it or something, but nothing's come my way.

It's perfect..Kefka's just so much more of a fruit when you aren't reading his lines :P

 Calling Sephiroth a mama's boy was pretty awesome though.

Agreed here. I actually have a little respect for that guy. He was pretty good.

He's not bad.  Decent costume, good characterization.

Which is fortunate, its rare to see a good western cosplayer.  Most of the time, I find only hot Asian girls or effeminate males could pull it off.
