Friday, the only day of the week we look forward to am I right?
Unless your one of those weird people that actually enjoy Monday,
strange ☹. Anyways, today’s post is an awesome one on Poc
Cosplay and is one I have been wanting to do for a while. Were
going to discuss some top 10 Poc Cosplay Ideas. As a fellow POC
cosplayer, it’s sometimes difficult to find cosplays that are
specifically tailored to POC cosplayers.
So let’s go ahead and address that with this post. Without further
ado, I give you my top 10 POC Cosplay ideas. Side Note there are a
lot of cosplays I wish I could have included but could not find
outfits for but if some are released in the future, I’ll gladly add
them.
10. Aveline De Grandpre
Starting off the list we have Aveline De Grandpre. She is an
assassin who lived in New Orleans during the middle of the 18th
century. Aveline is a DLC character for Assassins’ Creed IV: Black
Flag. She was born into a wealthy family and lived a privileged life.
One day, she lost sight of her mom and mistook another woman
for her mother.
This caught the attention of slavers but before they
could capture her, she was rescued by an Assassin called Agate, he then
recruits her into the brotherhood. I have yet to see this cosplay at a
convention and would love to see it this year at any number of the
conventions I am attending.
9. Sazh Katzroy
Sazh Katzroy is a protagonist from Final Fantasy XIII. He is
always accompanied by his twin pistols and trusty baby Chocobo.
He is approximately middle-aged and works as an airship pilot. I
remember seeing this character a lot back when the game was
originally released and would love to see him make a return.
Unfortunately, this character’s story is a rather sad one.
After his wife died, he has become a single father and takes care of
his son ever since. He then loses his son due to unfortunate
circumstances and is set on a quest to reclaim his son in one of the
most epic video games ever created.
8. Muhammad Avdol
Muhammad Avdol is an ally in Jojo’s bizarre adventure. Many
people have seen this series and though I see many JoJo cosplays, I
rarely see Avdol cosplayers. Not saying there aren’t any, just I don’t
see them that often. He joins the group to assist in defeating DIO
and provides valuable knowledge about enemy stand users. His
specific stand is Magicians Red and manipulates fire. Id love to see
two people do a cosplay involving both Avdol and his stand.
7. Aokiji
Kuzan better known as Aokiji is a marine admiral, well former
marine admiral. He ate the Hie Hie no Mi fruit and controls the
power of ice. He is one of the most powerful devil fruit users Luffy
has ever encountered in one piece. He is a very tall yet slim
individual with a calm and collected personality. I have really loved
this character throughout the one piece series and always know
were in for an awesome episode when he shows up.
6. Dutch Black Lagoon
I haven’t seen this series in a long time and kinda forgot about how
much of a badass this character is. Dutch from Black Lagoon is
the leader of the Black Lagoon Trading company and is an ex-
marine. He is absolutely ripped and is always cool and collected.
He represents one of the strongest and level headed members of
the group compared his happy trigger happy ally Revy. This is
another series that I have seen Revy cosplayed but not Dutches.
Please, someone, bring this back.
5. Kaz Kaan
Kaz Kaan is a character I have thought about cosplaying myself, I
would just have to dye my dreads pink. I don’t know how I feel
about that though. Unfortunately, I haven’t been able to find a
cosplay for this character but it wouldn’t take much work to
assemble.
This character is a magistocrat from a series called Neo Yokio. Fun fact, he is
actually voiced by Jaden Smith. Being a magistocrat, he has access to a wide
array of magical abilities making him extremely formidable. I would love
to give this cosplay a go someday and may just commit to the hairstyle for a
day. Side note, I did find a hoodie for the series.
4. Sid Barrett
Sid Barrett is a character from the awesome series Soul Eater. He
is a three-star meister with the special ability to wield any weapon.
Though capable of using any weapon, he prefers his trusty knife.
Unfortunately, he was transformed into a zombie but still retained
his large muscular form. Odd fact, the kanji tattoo he has on his
arm stands for death and the arrow under it means a person. I
think this cosplay is rather easy to pull off and shouldn’t set your
bank account back to much.
3. Darui
Darui is a character from the series Naruto. Unfortunately, I don’t
see many people branching into other characters from this series
aside from Sasuke, Naruto, Jiraiya and Tsunade. But that’s ok,
cause it will definitely change after this Poc Cosplay post right lol?
Anyways, he is a ninja from the hidden cloud village and wields
water, wind and lightning ninjutsu’s. I wish this character had
gotten more scream time so let’s honor him with some awesome
cosplays to make up for his lack of air time.
2. 4TH Raikage
The 4th raikage is truly a terror and force to behold in every
aspect. He is both physically imposing, completely fearless and an
absolute beast on the battlefield. His speed combined with his
relentless attitude has made him one of the most respected and
well known Kage in the Naruto series. Similar to Darui, I wanted to
see a lot more of this guy on the screen but its ok, because we got
Killer Bee in his stead. Seeing someone cosplay as him would be
awesome, especially with those large arm braces he rocks.
1. Ajay Che Lifeline Medic
Ajay Che is the medic known as Lifeline in the Apex Legend
Series. She is relatively new to the cosplay scene in comparison to
some of the other individuals on the list. She is the child of
individuals that profit from war and realized how much disparity
her family’s business was causing. She has since devoted her life to
helping others and pledges her winning from the Apex games to
help those in need.
This character has gained a lot of momentum after she was
cosplayed by the popular cosplayer Kayybear. I wish I had gotten
to photograph this character in person, but the cosplay
photography future is bright and I’m sure I’ll get the chance
someday.
There you have it, my top 10 Poc Cosplay characters to cosplay as. I
really wish I could have included so many other individuals on the
list but I was unable to find their outfits. I still may create one in
the future and just use images created by other individuals. I hope
to see a lot more of these cosplays go into effect at conventions and
will make sure I go out of my way to photograph them if I see any.

for today, until next time stay BOUNDLESS!!!
