Diablo 3: Demon Hunter

I do realize this little boy girl(!) is one of the contestants who participated in the cosplay competition, but unfortunately, I was one of the judges for the art competition so I didn’t have time to watch the cosplayers at the catwalk or pay close attention to our host announcing the characters.

That being said, I’m pretty sure someone will be able to tell me what character this little guy gal is cosplaying as. We literally jumped out of our seats when we saw him her walk by in front of our table and asked for pictures. I just hope we didn’t scare him her.

I hope Oh No! Manga Cosplay Camp 2 will come soon! I heard this time there will be a Mangaka Expo too. Oh No! Oh yes?

EDIT: Thanks to Josh029 for letting me know she is a Demon Hunter from Diablo 3!

EDIT 2: Thanks to Aki for correcting me! This is her cosplay and she is a little girl! Awww~

Touhou Project: Hakurei Reimu 06

Here’s something you don’t get to see (or hear) everyday.

Indonesian cosplayer Clarissa Punipun not only cosplayed Hakurei Reimu beautifully, but this talented cosplayer played Touhou Project’s “Silent Ensemble” on her cello at Hellofest v6!

Unfortunately, I don’t have a recording of her actually playing the song, but if you’re curious to know what is sounds like, here’s a youtube link of the song in violin. Thanks again to Clarissa for letting me feature this!

Vocaloid 2: Kaito and Kagamine Len

良いこと尽くめ の夢から覚めたディスクの空きメモリは,
After I had woken up from a dream full of good things, yes / What exactly went through my mind then?
Virusという得体の知れないものに侵されてしまいまして,それからは。
I am invaded by this thing called love of incomprehensible nature, and so after that, what happened was, ah

どうしようもなく２つに裂けたシステム防御を
What could I possibly have done for there was a split in two – inside of my heart
制御するだけのセキュリティソフト搭載しているはずもないので
It’s just that I thought this capacity for control shouldn’t exist the way it does, though it is real, yes

“Two-Faced Errors” Lyrics and Translation by
Vocalochu

Two famous cosplayers, Kaname and Yuegene, in one photo?! You know that’s feature worthy as soon as you come across it! And isn’t it just adorable how Kaito is helping Len with his hair?

For those who are still guessing, that’s Kaname as Kaito and Yuegene as Kagamine Len. Please view the original in Yuegene’s Facebook post.

DC Comics: Justice League

A fictional superhero team, the Justice League originally had Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Flash (Barry Allen), Green Lantern (Hal Jordan), Aquaman, and the Martian Manhunter in their team roster during the 1960’s. Since then, several other superheroes have joined their ranks including Green Arrow, Captain Marvel, Black Canary, the Atom, Hawkman, Elongated Man, Red Tornado, Firestorm, Zatanna, other Green Lanterns, and many others.

This is amazing. Heck, even Starro is amazing. And for those asking, Wonder Woman is cosplayed by Margie Cox, so please pay a visit to her Facebook and see the original photo here. I don’t know the rest of the cosplayers, but thumbs up to Grace Moss of BodhiTree Photography for the awesome shot!

Looking for a… Better Boyfriend: Jun Wenceslao

When Jun Wenceslao broke up with her last boyfriend, she never realized that a drink of her favorite chocolate milk would change her life forever… literally.

You see, having a mad scientist for a mother is not as easy and fun as it may sound. That chocolate milk drink? Well, it turned Jun from being a heart-broken girl into a full-fledged guy (yes, it’s “hanging there” according to Chapter 2) overnight!

“If I were to become a guy, then I would never make a girl cry!”

Guess we’ll just have to see if Jun can stay true to her his word. For now, I hope you like the photo! And in case you’re wondering, yes, the cosplayer, Ershn Yves is a guy and yes, that really is the 23-foot Unicorn Gundam in the background.

Lupin III: Arsène Lupin III and Jigen Daisuke

Arsène Lupin III, the grandson of the gentleman thief, Arsène Lupin, is considered to be the world's greatest thief. Lupin is well-known for announcing his intentions to steal valuable objects by sending a calling card to the owners of his desired items. His right-hand man and closest ally is Jigen Daisuke, an expert marksman who has an accuracy of nearly 100%.

This feature sure brings back a lot of great memories. I’m surprised someone still cosplays these characters. Thanks to Elmer for sharing this!

Get Backers: Fuchoin Kazuki 02

Formerly one of the Four Kings of the Volts, Kazuki is the last master of the Fuuchouin Thread Arts, a fighting style which utilizes koto strings controlled by vibrations in his fingertips. The strings can tear up solid earth, bones, skin, muscles, and even steel. Kazuki can also use his strings to listen in on distant conversations.

According to his Cure Profile, Kenn is a male cosplayer from China. I really thought he was a girl at first because he’s so… pretty. Kazuki is definitely the perfect character for him to cosplay. Thanks to Ohime (Kenn’s number one fan) for sending this in!

Unknown Entry 127

One thing I learned from attending my first cosplay convention in a long time is that there are really a lot of characters that I don’t recognize. Is it because I’m that far out of the loop or that there are really a lot of new anime and games coming out these days?

Well, the good thing about this blog is that I can post as many photos of unknown cosplays I want. Some people have been treating this like a game every week, which is all good for me.

It was hard to miss this guy at the convention because he was by the entrance of the Sky Dome. I’m not sure if he was there on purpose, but people were snapping photos of him every 2 minutes! I kinda felt bad for him being stuck there, but it looked like he was having fun (at least, I’d like to think so).

So, would anyone happen to know who he’s cosplaying as and who the cosplayer is? Feel free to leave comments here or on my Facebook Page. Hope you like the photo!

Devil May Cry / Black★Rock Shooter: Dante and Black Rock Shooter

Now here’s an epic crossover you don’t get to see everyday.

Cosplay couple Dante from Devil May Cry and Black Rock Shooter were spotted last Otakuthon 2012 at the Palais des congrès de Montréal - Montreal Convention Center (I say couple because of this other photo but correct me if I’m wrong).

A friend of mine, Satty, was one of the attendees at the convention, and he took a ton of photos. You might want to check out his Otakuthon album if you were one of the cosplayers at the con.

It looked like a pretty big convention. I wish I was there too.

Jet Loaf: Loaf

In planet Kapopo, everyone has a halo above their heads fashioned according to a specific animal. Each halo has a tail, and the length of which is determined by the person’s wisdom, knowledge, and abilities.

Loaf has one of the longest tails the manga has introduced, and yet despite being sought after by many established universities, she prefers to beta test video games in the comfort of her own home!

Personally, I would prefer being a beta tester over teaching any time, but I’m not as smart as she is. I guess we’ll have to wait for the next book to come out to know more about her. This photo is making me hungry…

Fairy Tail: Erza Scarlet 02

A 19-year-old S-Class Wizard, Erza Scarlet is usually tasked with performing extremely dangerous missions, as she is considered to be the most powerful female member of the guild. Having specialized in “The Knight” magic, she can quickly “re-equip” different weapons and change armor and clothes using a hammerspace. However, despite the obvious convenience of this technique, Erza usually hauls along a large number of suitcases while traveling.

It seems a lot of people are trying to find out who this cosplayer is from the Oh No! Manga Cosplay Camp 2012. I wonder if anyone ever managed to find out? Too bad I was still trying to figure out my camera’s proper settings or else I would have probably been able to take a much better picture!

EDIT: Thanks to Azreal for commenting that the cosplayer is Kristine Solis!

Sailor Moon S: Sailor Uranus 04

A stubborn and protective individual, Tenoh Haruka is described to be strong-willed, capable, charming, and occasionally even doting. Although barely 16-years-old, she is a racecar driver who is extremely flirtatious and loves to tease pretty girls. The timing of Haruka’s birthday to the Japanese school year suggests that she is one grade ahead of the other Guardian Senshi.

Wow, she definitely looks like Sailor Uranus no matter how many times I look at this photo. Thanks to Danica for sending this in!
