Cosplayers at For the Love of Opera Gloves: The Index
Gloved cosplayers at Otakon 2005
"Anime" is the Japanese word for animation, and is most commonly used - though the word can properly be used to denote any kind of animation - to the unique Japanese style of animated TV shows and movies. Over the past two decades, anime and manga fandom has taken the U.S. by storm, and dozens of conventions of all sizes are held throughout the country every year where anime fans can get together. Many anime fans are devotees of "cosplay" (another Japanese term, derived from the English "costume play"), which refers to dressing up as your favorite character (just as a SF or comic-book fan might dress up as his own favorite character). Gloves happen to be a key part of the costumes of many anime characters, and opera gloves frequently appear in the outfits of female anime heroines and villainesses. For the Love of Opera Gloves has been visiting anime conventions for the past several years to chronicle opera-gloved cosplay fashions, and presents the results here for your enjoyment!
