Ao no Exorcist: Okumura Rin and Okumura Yukio 02

Source: Samahan ng MahihiLig sa Anime on Facebook

At the funeral of his guardian Father Fujimoto Shiro, Okumura Rin encounters Mephisto Pheles, an old friend and acquaintance of Fujimoto’s. Although Mephisto was originally ordered to assassinate Rin, he instead agreed with Rin’s wish of becoming an exorcist and enrolled him in True Cross Academy. Little did Rin know that his brother, Okumura Yukio, is already a veteran Exorcist and will soon become one of his teachers.

Lovely effects and really great cosplaying! They may not look like twins, but they still make a great pair! Thanks to May for sending this in!

Vocaloid 2: Hatsune Miku and Megurine Luka

Source: Picasa

見つめ合うのは魅かれ合っているからでしょう
There is a mutual fascination between us as we gazed at each other.
あなたの背中に決して消えない傷跡を残したい
I didn’t want to leave a permanent scar on your back.
一人泣いていたの
All alone, I cried…
この手を汚しても手に入れたい
As I also wanted to soil those hands.

“Rondo of the Sun and Moon”
Lyrics by Vocalochu
Translation by Kurohiko

Another amazing Vocaloid cosplay by Tasha and Tomia! Forgive the crude translation, my Japanese is not very good, but I couldn’t find an English translation online! I hope it’s about right though! Thanks again to Lily for sending this in!

God Eater: The Player

Source: CSddLink

In the year 2071, most of the world has been razed by an alien life form known as the Aragami. These mysterious and aggressive creatures consist of colonies which has hundreds of thousands of independent units analogized as “cells” or “oracle cells”. The only way to defeat them is to use the God Arc, a specialized biological weapon that is made of the same oracle cells which can destroy the Aragami’s core.

I have to say, that God Arc is absolutely massive! And this seems like a really cool game that I need to check out for myself. Thanks to Takei for sending this in!

Hetalia: Axis Powers: America 03

Source: Lirlys on Deviant Art

A loud and energetic individual, America is the youngest among the Allied Forces and their self-declared leader in the World War II strips of Hetalia: Axis Powers. He is obsessed with superheroes, hamburgers, and has an unusual taste for weird colored sweets, much to Japan’s chagrin. America occasionally intrudes on other people’s business and has Phasmophobia, or a fear of ghosts.

Another amazing cosplay by Lirlys! America doesn’t seem all that loud here, but I’m sure the character has his quiet moments as well. Thanks to Merry for sending this in, as well as to her photographer, Aidu!

Kuroshitsuji: Sebastian Michaelis and Ciel Phantomhive 02

Source: Other Worlds Cosplay on Tumblr

While attending undercover at ball hosted by the Viscount of Druitt, Ciel Phantomhive managed to catch the Viscount’s attention and flirted with him in the hopes of finding out what his plans were. However, while he was alone with the Viscount, Ciel lost consciousness, and later found himself being sold in a large underground auction. When the Viscount removed Ciel’s blindfold to show off his eyes, Ciel called for Sebastian Michaelis, who swiftly came to rescue his young master.

Absolutely stunning! And the umbrella adds a nice touch to Ciel’s attire. I only wish Sebastian was in his tutor’s clothing too! Thanks to Daniela for sending this in!

Fate/Unlimited Codes: Saber Lily 03

Source: Coral Feng on World Cosplay

Saber Lily is an alternate version of Saber featured as an unlockable costume in Fate/Unlimited Codes. She is the pure and sweet “Princess of Knights”, a complete opposite of the blackened Saber Alter. Saber Lily is often depicted wielding the Caliburn rather than Excalibur in most of the game’s art.

A rather stunning photo of Chinese cosplayer, Coral Feng! The details of her cosplay along with the great photography really makes this look like it was official promotional material for Unlimited Codes. Thanks to Maya-chan for sending this in!

Higurashi no Naku Koro ni: Furude Rika

First Found on: Otaku King on Facebook Source: Ruto from World Cosplay

Revered by the villagers as the heir of the local shrine, Furude Rika plays the role of a miko in the annual Watanagashi Festival. She has been the head of the Furude house since the death of her parents, but barely attends town meetings because she is so young. Nevertheless, Rika sometimes expresses a type of wisdom beyond her years, and is quite fond of sake.

Beautiful cosplay by Japanese cosplayer, Ruto! She looks so cute and innocent, just like Rika! Thanks to Kyle for sending this in!

Sword Art Online: Kirito 03

Source: Tokyo Otaku Mode on Facebook

A few months after Sword Art Online began, Kirito decided to join a guild known as the “Black Cats of the Full Moon”. He decided to keep his level and status as one of the frontline clearers from his guild mates, possibly because he didn’t want them to know he was the infamous Black Swordsman. He became attached to Sachi, a fairly timid girl who harbored fear of the game and of dying.

Such a handsome cosplayer from Malaysia’s Comic Fiesta 2012! I love how he has both the Elucidator and the Dark Repulser in each hand. Thanks to photographer, Jimmy Cometa and Alisson for sending this in!

Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukunai: Kashiwazaki Sena 02

Source: ~MPzero~

Kashiwazaki Sena enjoys playing dating sims and eroge video games partially because they allow her to make female friends even if they are only in the virtual world. She is generally fascinated by the girls in these games and has also taken a liking to Hasegawa Kobato, Kodaka’s younger sister. In addition, Kodaka has observed that she is the weirdest member of the Rinjin-bu club, as she is able to warrant weird and disgusted looks not only from Mikazuki Yozora and Kobato, but also from Kusunoki Yukimura and Shiguma Rika.

But Japanese cosplayer, Miiko’s cute face and features, it will be hard not to admire her! Thanks to Regan for sending this in!

SoniComi: Sonico 04

Source: Hexieshe

I think I may actually know this one, but I can’t be completely sure since I don’t know the game that well…

It looks to me that she might be Sonico from SoniComi, but that’s only basing it off of her pink hair and headphones. I don’t think I’ve seen artwork of her with a fur hoodie and blue cat ears. That’s pretty specific, unless this is the cosplayer’s original outfit for the character.

Then again, she can just as easily be Megurine Luka from Vocaloid 2, right?

I’m confused. Someone give me a vote of confidence!

EDIT: Thanks to Sans for letting me know this is Sonico from SoniComi!

ハロ
Hello
窓を開けて　小さく呟いた
I opened the window, and softly whispered out

ハワユ
How are you?
誰もいない　部屋で一人
There’s no one here, I’m alone in the room

モーニン
Mornin’
朝が来たよ　土砂降りの朝が
The morning’s come, a morning of pouring rain

ティクタク
Tick-tock
私のネジを　誰か巻いて
Somebody, wind up my coil…

“Hello / How Are You”
Lyrics and Translation by: Vocalochu

Miku is probably one of the most cosplayed character out there! I think there may already be 40 Mikus in this blog alone, including Sakura Miku and Snow Miku. It would be interesting to see what other variations she’ll have in the near future! Thanks again to 2chmod for sending this in!

K-On!: Hirasawa Yui and Nakano Azusa

Source: Other worlds cosplay

After Nakano Azusa joined the Sakuragaoka Girl’s High School’s light music club, they gained more structure and started practicing more. She is the most mature and responsible in the bunch, but can be easily clamed down just by petting. Azusa is also constantly the victim of Hirasawa Yui’s “skinship”, being nicknamed “Azu-nyan” after she tried on a pair of cat ears and meowed.

They look absolutely adorable in this photo! Was there an episode when they had to wear maid outfits? Azusa doesn’t look very happy with what’s going on! Thanks to Walter for sending this in!
