Blazblue: Calamity Trigger: Noel Vermillion

A young girl who was found amidst the burning fields of Ikaruga, Noel became the adopted daughter of the Vermillion family. It was because of her outstanding combat activity that she became a high-ranking member of the NOL using the Nox Nyctores revolver Arcus Diabolus: Bolverk. These guns do not fire actual bullets, but rather, inflicts damage by creating distortions in dimensional space.

Cute cosplay by Dekinut of Deviant Art! And she apparently wore this during Philippine’s Toycon 2011! Thanks to Lauren for sending this in!

Final Fantasy XIII: Éclair Farron aka Lightning 03

Early in the game, Lightning becomes a l’Cie, a being magically marked by the “fal’Cie” creatures to do their bidding. Lightning's mark appears in the middle of her chest that grants her superhuman strength as well as a rose-shaped crystal which she can use to summon the Eidolon Odin. In battle, Lightning can command Odin to turn into a horse-like creature and use his double-bladed sword for a short amount of time. Her strongest unique special attack is called the “Army of One”, or “Scene Drive” in the Japanese version.

Awesome photo! She looks just like Lightning, and she colored her eyebrows pink too. Thanks to Fuu-chan for sending this in!

Touhou Project: Yamaxanadu Shikieiki 02

Yamaxanadu Shikieki is one of the Yama who judge the dead on whether they should go to Heaven, Hell, Hakugyokurou, or get reincarnated. Onozuka Komachi is tasked with bringing the souls of the dead to Shikieki over a river called the Sanzu no Kawa. However, not every soul makes it all the way to Shikieiki without being tired out from the journey or being extinguished by Komachi herself.

Cute cosplay! Those wired ribbons really give a nice effect to this cosplay. Thanks to Rika for sending this in!

Original by Hayase Ami

…who are you and why are you so cute?

My best guess is that she’s Sakagami Tomoyo from Clannad because of the hairstyle, but I don’t remember ever seeing her in a white dress like this. Could this be her wedding dress from the game?

She could also be Chi from Chobits, but that’s a long shot because she’s missing that essential earpiece.

Well, I hope you guys have better ideas. Thanks again to Julian for sending this in!

EDIT: Thanks to anon for letting me know this is an original piece by cosplayer Hayase Ami (早瀬あみ)!

Macross Frontier: Sheryl Nome 08

During a major audition for the lead role in an upcoming musical, Grace noticed that Sheryl's singing abilities attracted Vajra. Lylith sacrificed herself to save Sheryl and told her that her songs must convey feelings to others. Sheryl then promised to Lylith and her parents that she will be the best singer in the entire galaxy.

Beautiful cosplayer! I wonder if she drew that tattoo on her leg by herself? Thanks to Mila for sending this in and once again to MPzero for the amazing photography!

Vocaloid 2: Hatsune Miku 26

ねぇ　切ないの　誰のせい？
Hey, it's bittersweet because of who?
あなたのせいとか　言わないけれど
I'm not gonna say you are the one
携帯みてないで　そのまま寝ちゃおうよ　ねぇ
Stop staring at your cell phone, go to sleep, hey

“Ne / Hey” Lyrics and Translation by
Vocalochu

This costume was probably made for a specific song by Miku; definitely not from the song lyrics I posted, but it’s a cute song anyway. Thanks again to Michelle for sending this in!

Bleach: Kurosaki Ichigo 04

When Aizen created his army of arrancar in Hueco Mundo, Ichigo is taught to control his inner hollow by the Visored, Soul Reapers with hollow powers. This allowed him to call upon his hollow powers at will without sacrificing control by donning a hollow mask through a limited time. Although Ichigo and his friends managed to fend off the arrancar with bolstered defenses, they are unable to prevent the abduction of Inoue Orihime.

I’m so sorry for the lack of updates! I was busy working on my own manga that I forgot to schedule some features for Cosplay Holic

I must be getting old… but anyway! Thanks to Jose for sending this amazing shot and be sure to check out the full version!

Claymore: Priscilla and Isley

When Priscilla traveled north, she ate everyone in towns she passed through except young girls. She eventually met Isley and Rigaldo, destroying half of Isley's awakened form. Their battle reverted Isley back into her human form, but she lost her memory as she regressed into childhood. Isley then swore allegiance to Priscilla and promised to take her south.

Astellecia makes an awesome Priscilla and Reiyu-verse looks lovely as Isley! I’m guessing they took this photo in a beach somewhere? Thanks again to Aerie for sending this photo and to Garion for the wonderful photography!

Inu x Boku SS: Shirakiin Ririchiyo and Yukinokouji Nobara

Here is another one of Stilzkin’s submissions from Japan’s Chokaigi 2012! But we’re both not sure who they’re cosplaying as.

I’m guessing the girl on the left could be Hinomoto Oniko, but I can’t just say that because she has a demon mask around her waist. I’m sure other female characters do that too.

If anyone has a better idea, please do leave a comment in this post. We’re all ears. Thanks again to Stilzkin for sending this in!

EDIT: Thanks to San Celluz for mentioning the series, Tanz for identifying Ririchiyo, and Fan for identifying Nobara!

Final Fantasy X: Jecht

A blitzball celebrity in his hometown of Dream Zanarkand, Jecht has a difficult and complicated with his son, Tidus. It is mentioned multiple times that Tidus hates Jecht because he believed that his mother always ignored him when Jecht was around. Tidus was also under a lot of pressure to live up to his father's fame and, to make matters worse, Jecht regularly insulted him and called him a crybaby. Truth be told, Jecht deeply loved and cared for Tidus, but is unable to express this in a kind way.

That's pretty awesome with the details, locations, and everything! And just look at that massive sword! Thanks again to Julia for sending this in!

EDIT: Thanks to Anzu for letting me know the cosplayer is Elffi from Deviant Art!

Guilty Gear X: Dizzy 02

After escaping from her abusive captors, Dizzy came under the protection of Testament, a Gear who had served under the Command Gear Justice. Testament fought off most of the bounty hunters who were after Dizzy, and if any managed to overcome him, they were quickly beaten back by the immense power of Dizzy herself. She was eventually defeated by the bounty hunter known as Sol Badguy, but he decided to spare her life, and the bounty fell to Kuradoberi Jam instead.

Cool cosplay! I like the blue hues, which I’m guessing were possibly added later on. Thanks again to Jeni for sending this in!

Naruto: Haku 03

After wandering from place to place for a time, Haku was found by Zabuza who recognized his talents and agreed to take him in as a tool. As a result, Haku becomes unquestioningly protective and loyal to Zabuza, as he found a purpose in life by being useful to his master. He ultimately gives his life in his mission, becoming a human shield to protect Zabuza from Hatake Kakashi's Lightning Blade.

Beautiful cosplay! I’ve always sympathized with Haku’s storyline for some reason or other… Maybe every one of us are seeking for that purpose in our life? Thanks to Jeni for sending this!
