Fate/Extra: Saber and Super Sarah G.

It might be a little early for our weekly Unknown Feature, but this is a crossover anyway and I thought this photo needed to be featured as soon as possible.

This was taken by Kira Hokuten during the Philippine Toy Convention 2012. I know Alodia Gosiengfiao is cosplaying Fate/Extra’s Saber, but I’m not sure who Sarah Geronimo is cosplaying as. It’s funny that from this angle, they look like sisters! I thought this was a photo of Alodia and Ashley at first until I read the description on Facebook.

Got a better idea? Thanks to Ernz for sharing this!

EDIT: Thanks to Keneth for letting me know that this is Sarah Geronimo's alternate ego, "Super Sarah G."!

Paradise Kiss: Sakurada Miwako 02

Known to be a very sweet and cute girl, Sakurada Miwako tends to act in a childlike manner by her Lolita styled fashion and unique vocabulary. Her endearing personality attracts many of other characters to her and is considered to be Hayasaka Yukari’s best friend.

Alodia Gosiengfiao makes an adorably cute Miwako! This looks like an album’s CD cover that’s about to be released. Thanks to AV for the awesome photography and Yiz for suggesting this!

Final Fantasy: Black Mage

Another special job class featured in several game installments of Final Fantasy, the Black Mage is the offensive magic caster of the Warriors of Light. Although they are ill-suited for wielding weapons and have the lowest HP out of any character class, Black Mages are capable of inflicting negative effect spells that cause great damage to their opponents. They have weak combat skills but can easily bend destructive magic spells to their will.

A rather interesting interpretation of the Black Mage by Alodia Gosiengfiao! I love her pointy ears and mini wizard hat. Thanks again to Jei for sending this in!

G.I. Joe: The Baroness

Cobra's Intelligence Officer and lieutenant to Cobra Commander, The Baroness is a dark, sensual, femme fatale whose beauty is matched only by her ruthlessness. She has a romantic relationship with Laird James McCullen Destro XXIV, weapons manufacturer and supplier to Cobra. The Baroness’ real name is Anastasia Cisarovna aka Anastasia DeCobray who was on hand for the Tet Offensive in 1968.

Alodia Gosiengfiao makes such a convincing Baroness, even competing with Sienna Miller who played as the Baroness in the live-action movie, “G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra”. Thanks to Treb for sending this in!

Witchblade: Amaha Masane and Shiori Tsuzuki

Sisters Alodia and Ashley Gosiengfiao represented Team Philippines in the recent Anime Festival Asia (AFA) 2009 held in Suntec Convention Center, Singapore. The sisters performed a short skit in their Witchblade cosplay with Alodia as Amaha Masane and Ashley as Shiori Tsuzuki.

You can view the video with a short interview by Hexlord here and see the rest of their photos in AlodiaGosiengfiao.com. Great job you guys!

Dream of Teenager: Lahoo and Shall

Dream of Doll’s “Dream of Teenager” is a collection of ball jointed dolls. Featured in this photo are two of the most well-known cosplayers in the Philippines, Jin Joson as Lahoo and Alodia Gosiengfiao as Shall.

Ever since I posted Jin’s photo as Ishida Uryuu, there’s been a non-stop debate with regards to Jin’s gender. As for myself, I’ve given up trying to figure it out unless Jin would like to comment and let us all finally know what the truth is.

Either way, this is a really good cosplay of Lahoo and Shall. I never thought people would actually try and cosplay real dolls and succeed so well. Thanks to Tricia Gosingtian and Jin for the wonderful photography!

Death Note: Amane Misa 02

This is the second Amane Misa Cosplay featured in this blog… But I have a hard time choosing from one or the other.

Philippine’s Cosplay Idol, Alodia “Edjie” Gosiengfiao, is so popular in the Philippines that she is usually asked to judge cosplay competitions instead of joining them. (Apparently, if she joins a said competition, she wins hands down. So she becomes a judge to “give chance to others”.)

This is originally found on Alodia’s Deviant Art. You may view the larger image here. Photography is done by Tricia Gosingtian.

Indeed… “What a wonderful way to kill.”
