I was thinking that once I lost enough weight that I'd want to cosplay again (well, it's more when I found a size that I was going to stick to for long enough I could wear the freakin' costume again), I might do Sesshoumaru's mother from the Inu-Yasha manga. It would be a reasonably spectacular costume that wasn't skimpy and wasn't worn by a teenager. I'm assuming that there's been some sort of color image of her published in one of the manga. XD
The only other characters I can think of offhand that are really appropriate for a cosplayer who can't or won't do a young character besides Unohana are all old - Sophie in old-woman form from Howl's Moving Castle and the old shamaness Whatsherface, Kikyo's sister, from Inu-Yasha. And both of them have boring outfits. Technically, Tsunade from Naruto is in her 50s, but she keeps her appearance younger through jutsu.
