The act of 'costume play' is to wear costumes of personae from animation, comics, computer g...ames and other such media. When people are engaged in this activity, they not only enjoy wearing the costumes but they sport special hair styles and makeup. It is a whole body makeover or transformation. If you see these costume players, you will easily recognize that they are amusing themselves in imaginary worlds which are quite different from everyday life. But this trend seems to be widespread in the society with many enthusiasts. The word 'costume play' is even used outside Japan, and the so-called 'otaku' people spread this worldwide.
