As the end of the year approaches, we can't stop reading Tumblr's 2015 Year in Review blog [1]. From the most reblogged "Hotline Bling" memes to the top Netflix and chill [2] posts, these insights about what Tumblr users liked best this year are completely fascinating. Since it's based on Tumblr's collective obsession with fandoms, it doesn't surprise us that some of the most popular content across the site had to do with cosplay. After seeing all of the elaborate, creative getups at Comic-Con International [3] and Disney's D23 Expo [4] over the past year, we knew that Tumblr's most popular cosplay posts would be top-notch.
And man, were they great. Ranging from Studio Ghibli favorites to Marvel heroes, the site's most popular cosplay-tagged posts [5] are a gold mine. Aside from a couple of instructional posts [6] about how to DIY cosplay props [7], portraits of users' unique costumes reigned supreme in the list. If you're as curious as we were about which getups came out on top, keep reading to discover Tumblr's top 25 cosplays of 2015.
