Decided to see what Sailor Moon fan communities were saying about Plastique Tiara's perfect Yaten cosplay on Drag Race: All Stars 9, and discovered that just two days after it aired talking about a drag queen competing on a major current TV show in stunningly accurate Sailor Star Healer cosplay is apparently a banned topic in the Sailor Moon reddit community, as the one and only post there about it have been deemed spam with absolutely no connection to Sailor Moon and was then deleted by the mods.

Yikes

#this is extra wild to me given the Starlight's entire deal tbh #like the costume was even worn for a performance challenge so it was a singing and dancing outfit #super perfect for the character #anyway it was really something to see someone perform in straight up cosplay #for years people on the show have talked about being cosplayers #the connection between cosplay and drag is a very strong and real thing #but the most actually featured on the show itself have been cosplay inspired outfits - never something as beyond accurate as this #but it was something else to see cosplay like that on the show #also I love that Plastique Tiara has a Luna headband that was featured promenantly during the prep work stuff
