S1 E13 The Cosplay Crunch W/ Phalafel Cosplays

On episode 13 of The Cosplay Crunch, we welcome Karena of Phalafel Cosplays and we have an ABSOLUTE BALL! We run through the convention scene of the DMV area, including Katsucon, Otakon, and MAGFest, and delve into the issues with modern day Katsucon. We reminisce on our first time meeting and judging at San Japan, as well as Karena’s many experiences streaming on Twitch for the past 4 years. You aren’t going to want to miss conversations on the decline of cosplay magazines and the controversy surrounding the bought contest cosplays from Russian cosplayers. All of this and more, so join us for a delicious cosplay kiki.
