This thesis aims to study, based on knowledge about Japanese pop culture, the gender and race inequality that black women face in cosplay, and also, how this prejudice directly influences the formation of the identity and the representation of the cosplayer woman. Therefore, we seek to analyze, through interviews with cosplayers from different regions of Brazil aged between 19 to 30, and also through an exploratory survey conducted on Twitter, from march to november of 2020, how this oppression has been seen in the community and expose the accounts highlighting the main points that address inequality in cosplay at pop culture events and conventions and on social networks. And, thus, highlighting the notable gender and race inequalities perceived in the cosplay environment.
