Met Gala has just passed, and the crazy outfits which we have seen gracing the red carpet were giggle-worthy for sure. We haven’t forgotten last year how Zendaya creates the Cinderella kinda vibe, with her fashion designer being the fairy Godmother.
But, none to surprise, this year it was not the costume but the gesture that won the audience’s heart, when Ryan Reynolds was total awe-struck to see his wife, Blake Lively, as a God damn princess!
Comic-Con Vs Halloween Vs Met Gala
The reason for telling all this is simple Met Gala, and Cosplay (and not to forget Halloween) are interrelated. The thing which differs them is the occasion the dresses are donned; like one in an exaggerated top-notch charity celebrity ball, the second one is comic on, and the third is Halloween itself.
Coming towards the 10 best cosplay characters, and their costume styles in 2022, let’s roll fanatics!
Goku
Let’s raise your hands millennials fellas, this manga animated series was like air and water for us in the early 2000s. Without seeing Dragon Ball Z our day was incomplete and watching the ultimate battle between Goku, and his counterpart was like a cherry on top. But, who can forget those good old days when we teenagers used to fantasize about Goku and his goku drip black puffer jacket.
Spider man
Whatever the year is, and whatever region you belong to, this is one of the most hot-selling, and an absolute favorite character, and costume. Spider man jumping from one sky-scraper of NYC to another like a pro always skips our heartbeat. This marvel character has given every time a new kind of costume in each sequel of his movie. The one released in 2021, Spider-Man: No Way Home features all the former spiders men, like a tribute. So, it won’t come as a surprise even if this costume tops the charts in the upcoming decades too.
Joker
C’mon, who can forget that evil grin of the greatest villain in the comic world? *Drum rolls* and here we have “The Joker”, the DC’s spectacular creation, the man who never leaves his better half Batman. The makeup, that vibrant suit of purple color, and to top that amazing green hair! No one, we can bet on our lives, no one has such an amazing aura being a negative character. So if thinking a little devilish, do this cosplay.
Squid Games
That crazy hit Korean series and it’s mind-boggling games are what this Netflix generation is going crazy about. From licking the dalgona candy to playing the tug of war, and making those innocent players die from such horrific games. Although, the costumes of this series, are not so much glamorous as Anime, and superheroes. But, being so simple, and aesthetically pleasing, they have made the top 10 charts with flying colors.
Sailor Mercury
Being on topmost of her game since circa 1992, this anime character is a dream outfit for every girl. With such eye-popping embellishment, these sailor girls are making everyone go weak on their knees. This is a moon manga series created by the great cartoonist Naoko Takeuchi. The color contrast from the very first day till now, which is blue and white is unchanged.
Wonder Woman
Coming straight from the land of Themyscira, where there is absolutely NO MAN! (Just imagine how lucky Steve Trevor was). This long-lost character by DC was ignited again by Gal Gadot, and by Justice League too. The costume, the lasso of truth, and that amazing sword are what make the wonder woman character complete in all true sense, to battle it out with Ares, and Cheetah.
Harley Quinn
Talking about Joker, and not mentioning his evil counterpart Harley Quinn? Is this some kind of joke, or what?
That two freaking ponytails, and a bat in her hand, is what all a boy needs to get charmed (chuckles). How this dangerously amazing woman graced the gaming world too, by featuring in Mortal Kombat, and making raving reviews about her cosplay outfit mortal kombat 11 harley quinn jacket. This suicide squad girly is not here to be underestimated.
Archie Comics
Streaming Riverdale, and not donning the costumes by the generation’s most loved teenagers? Be it Archie, Betty, Veronica, Jughead, or Cheryl Blossom, everyone has some distinctive style to offer on the plate. There are a number of varieties to which you can adhere as a cosplayer at a comic con, you can be a cheerleader like Cheryl, or be blonde or a brunette like the much-loved duo Betty and Veronica. The option is limitless, so Pickaway…..
Aquaman and Mera
Coming from the Atlantic oceans by being the direct Atlanteean descent, this makes this mighty hero half man, and the rightful owner of the throne. This costume is such a popular pick among men with a strong muscular build, like Jason Momoa itself. And, to pair it up with red-haired Mera, the couples have made this duo a sizzling pick among the San Diego comic con.
Psst! We don’t know this year Mera will be a choice, seeing the Amber Heard, and Johnny Depp trial.
Sonic the Hedgehog
This deep blue hedgehog will left no stone unturned, to grab that gold rings, or to fight a sequence with the Eggman. This little creature is processed in games, so no one even the sibling can defeat his speed. This costume is one of the best choices among kids, because the release of the sonic movie is in June, making it a trending clothing for Comic-Con in the US.
In a nutshell
These are much loved cosplay apparel, all over the globe. Although, geeks will get offended by not mentioning enough Manga, and anime characters, if we talk about the whole, there is a balance between East vs West’s choices. So, coming towards the hot lists, these are the ones most celebrated and loved despite border or any jurisdiction sanction.
