Hayao Miyazaki Cosplay
This is possibly one of the greatest cosplay set ups I have ever seen – or could it really be the man himself? I couldn’t tell. It was just too well done. I just love his Tottoro themed pulley bag. What a great idea. I didn’t get his name but if you know him, tell him Tokyobling said hello!
If you don’t recognize him from the pictures, this man is dressing up like the Godfather of Japanese animation movies, Hayao Miyazaki. You can compare his costume with the real thing here.

Haha, amazingly accurate costume! And I WANT that Totoro bag!!!! But wait, I’d be too depressed if the airline ruined him in the baggage. >_<

It’s great isn’t it? He even acted the part, walked around with his hand in his pocket, looking grumpy all the time. Never said a word, just grunted and posed! haha… Yes, I think the Totoro cover goes into the bag before it goes into the airline… my moms bag was trashed just last month by AirFrance… and insurance doesn’t cover checked luggage! Strange.

I agree with Julie!! I want that bag too!! I’ve been a big fan of Hayao Miyazaki’s work for a long time but personally I prefer Spirited Away even though I think Totoro is really adorable. Either ways, I wonder how old the dude actually is…really well done!

Hi Yao! I much prefer Miyazaki’s earlier work but I agree with you on these two movies. Spirited Away was sort of the essence of all his artistic vision and a mash of all his movies rolled into one. I saw Totoro when I was much too old to bond to it.
