It’s Halloween. Kids get a chance to pick up some candy trick-or-treating. Adults get a nice excuse to indulge in a bit of cosplay. In honor of this, Anime!Anime! asked who’d they want to cosplay as this year. Selections were then aggregated by gender, and from the female character picked, Re:Zero’s Rem was the clear winner at 10% of the total volumes. Good choice! You get to dress up as a maid AND an oni at th same time!

The total pool of voters (who could pick any character to cosplay) was 56% women. Roughly half of those polled were 19 or younger, and fans in their 20s represented around 30%.
