The film taps into the psychology behind this art of self expression and demonstrates how Cosplayers can transform and expand their perceptions of themselves while finding community. Cosplay Universe features appearances by comic book legend Stan Lee, cosplay superstars Yaya Han and Jessica Nigri and many more.

cosplay是英文costume play的简略写法，其动词为cos，而玩cosplay的人则一般被称为coser[也称cosplayer]。从一般意义上来说的cosplay最早的中文译名是出自台湾，意思是指角色扮演。但因为这种译法与游戏中的role play game(rpg)同为角色扮演之意，所以为免雷同，笔者更倾向于另一种译法--服饰装扮。以现今的cosplay而言，其形式及内容一般是指利用服装、小饰品、道具以及化装来扮演acg(anime、comic、game)中的角色或是一些日本视觉系乐队以及电影中的某些人物，从这里可以看出在定位上cosplay包含了相当广阔的发挥空间，甚至可以说只要是有cosplayer在的地方，这一领域便绝对就是当今青少年流行文化的主流。
