Kuroshitsuji: Sebastian Michaelis 14

kuroshitsuji black butler cosplay sebastian michaelis demon formAlthough Sebastian Michaelis’ true demon form has yet to be revealed, there was one incident in the anime where he transformed fighting against Ash Landers. Sebastian himself described his true form to be unpleasant in appearance, and Ash was driven into hysterics screaming that Sebastian was “filthy”. What we do know from the partial screens is that his true form includes high-heeled stiletto boots, black feathers, sharp claws, fuchsia irises, slit pupils, and long, sharp teeth.

Well, even if we don’t know what his true form looks like, it won’t stop fans from cosplaying him! I think this one from Romai Lee would be an accurate guess, wouldn’t you agree? Thanks to Celest for sending this in!

Sekai-Ichi Hatsukoi: Kirishima Zen

sekaiichi hatsukoi cosplay kirishima zen by shinFirst introduced in Jujou Romantica as the editor-in-chief of shonen manga magazine “Japun”, Kirishima Zen is a single parent raising his only daughter, Hiyori. His wife passed on a few years ago, but it would appear as if 10-year-old Hiyori is the one taking care of her father as she likes cooking her father’s meals everyday. Nevertheless, she is fond of Kirishima’s friend, Yokozawa Takefumi and affectionately calls him “Onii-san”.

Shin looks amazing as Kirishima! But smoking is a bad habit, so please don’t start! It’s bad for your health and the environment! Thanks again to Samantha for sending this in!

DRAMAtical Murder: Ren

dramatical murder cosplay ren by terashima iris

Part of Seragaki Aoba’s existence, Ren is an entity born from Aoba’s power who maintains the balance between Aoba and the other entity inside him. While he normally takes the form of a black Pomeranian / Japanese Spitz, Ren is later revealed to have a human form as well.

Meet Hong Kong-ese cosplayer, Terashima Iris! I wish my puppy had a human form too! That would be great! And a lot easier to figure out what he’s thinking. Thanks to Terrence for sending this in!

Uta no Prince-sama: Quartet Night

uta no prince-sama cosplay quartet night camus kotobuki reiji kurosaki ranmaru and mikaze ai

An idol group form Shining Entertainment, Quartet Night consists of four members (in photo from left to right): Camus, Kotobuki Reiji, Kurosaki Ranmaru, and Mikaze Ai. In the second season of Uta no Prince-sama, they only performed as a unit as requested by Shining Saotome. Most of them preferred to work alone, with the exception of Reiji, who appears to like the idea of forming a group. They mentored the members of STARISH in their Master Course.

Another amazing cosplay by ALCO G as Camus! Of course, let us also give credit to her friends, Akio (アキオ) as Reiji, HIDE as Ranmaru, and Ei (英) as Ai! They look like they will have a lot of fun if they’re living together in one apartment, don’t you think? Thanks again to Mina for sending this in!

Shingeki no Kyojin: Petra Ral and Levi

shingeki no kyojin cosplay petra ral and levi

Petra Ral was one of the soldiers Levi hand-picked for the Special Operations Squad in charge of protecting Eren Jaeger. She was highly skilled, reportedly slaying 58 titans in total, 48 in team, and 10 in solo, one of the highest number of kills in the series so far. Unfortunately, she was killed during the 57th expedition by a rare Female Titan.

She is one of the characters that I really loved in the series. I’m very sad that she passed away, but at least she no longer has to suffer in the hands of her world. Thanks to Walter for sending this in!

Vampire Knight: Touya Rima 04

vampire knight cosplay touya rimaAlthough she is considered to be young for a vampire, Touya Rima can be quite sharp and perceptive. She noticed almost immediately that Senri Shiki changed upon his return to Cross Academy, and did not hesitate to confront him, demanding that Shiki should have a little more self-respect and not allow others to use him so easily. Aside from her vampiric traits, Rima also has the ability to control lightning.

She’s so cute! But I wouldn’t want to make her mad. I hear electrocution is a painful way to die. Thanks to Sarah for sending this in!

Strawberry Panic!: Aoi Nagisa

strawberry panic cosplay aoi nagisa by yukikage0804A new transfer student at St. Miator Girl’s Academy, Aoi Nagisa has a cheerful and almost childish personality that gives off a happy vibe to everyone around her. Compared to the traditional students as St. Miator, Nagisa is a free spirit who would not hesitate to act on her own impulses. However, she is easily frightened by anything scary, especially ghosts.

Yuki Kage looks adorable as Nagisa! And I really like the intricate design of this uniform! That lace collar must have taken some time to make. Thanks to Norby for sending this in!

Rurouni Kenshin: Seta Soujiro

rurouni kenshin cosplay seta soujiro by kamiki ryunosukeA young assassin trained by Shishio Makoto, Soujiro Seta is known for his lack of emotions, or rather hiding them behind his smiling face. He is often polite and refers to others with Japanese suffixes, even when he is being sarcastic. He is also well-known for his superhuman speed, which is superior even to that of Kenshin’s.

This is apparently the first official photo of Japanese actor, Kamiki Ryunosuke as Seta Soujiro in the second Rurouni Kenshin live action film, “Rurouni Kenshin: The Great Kyoto Fire Arc”. I am absolutely thrilled and excited about this new character! He is definitely one of my favorites, second only to Kenshin and Misao. I really hope this movie premiers very soon! Thanks to Xing for sending this in!

Sekai-Ichi Hatsukoi: Kisa Shota and Yukina Kou

“Love at first sight works well enough in manga, but this is reality.”
- Kisa Shota

Kisa Shota, who is often mistaken to be much younger than his age, does not think he is capable of being in a serious relationship, because he often falls in love with someone, anyone, for their good looks, regardless of their personality. However, when he meets Yukina Kou, he experiences for the first time what it truly feels like to fall in love with not only a person’s looks, but their entire being as well.

Featuring Shin as Yukina Kou and Manato(マナト) as Kisa Shota! Ok, guys, look away for now, today’s another treat for come of Cosplay Holic’s female readers. Perhaps I should find some yuri to balance things out, but I believe the cosplayers are both female anyway, if that compensates for anything. Thanks to Samantha for sending this in!

Yu Yu Hakusho: Youko Kurama 05

Compared to his human counterpart, Youko Kurama appears to be more cruel, vindictive, and merciless. This was first shown in his fight against Karasu during the semi-final rounds of the Dark Tournament. However, Kurama later explains that his demonic spirit was merged with the human spirit of Minamino Shuichi over time. He is therefore “both the demon Kurama as well as the human Minamino Shuuichi.”

Minamino Tetra makes quite a stunning Youko! It’s almost a little creepy when I look at it, since she looks very sadistic, pretty much like the character. Thanks to Jaime for sending this in!

Uta no Prince-sama: Otori Eichi

uta no prince-sama cosplay otori eichi by alco g

The son of the legendary Raging Otori, Otori Eichi is a member of HEAVENS, a singing group competing against STARISH for the UtaPri Award. He acts as the leader of HEAVENS and has a disturbing, psychotic-like attitude. He appears to be obsessed with obtaining Haruka Nanami as his group’s composer.

ALCO G looks absolutely amazing as that crazy psychopath. Although I’m very curious as to how this character came to be. I have a bad feeling that his father pushed him too hard when he was still young, but I guess we’ll have to wait for the third season of Uta no Prince-sama to find out more. Thanks to Mina for sending this in!
