Kuroshitsuji: Charles Grey

kuroshitsuji cosplay - charles grey by someiOne of the Queen’s private secretaries and butlers, Earl Charles Grey appears to be carefree most of the time, but he does have a short temper and a violent streak to him. He enjoys combat and has a ravenous appetite, but he is deathly afraid of ghosts and snakes. The Earl seems to have a dislike for Ciel Phantomhive, mostly referring to him as a “brat”.

Let me reintroduce Taiwanese cosplayer, Somei (染井), featured last April 2014 as Toma from Amnesia! Their profile doesn’t really say their gender, but I’m guessing Somei is female? Either way, please have a look for yourself and visit their World Cosplay and Facebook accounts. Thanks to Mahin Ahmed for sharing this!

Big Hero 6: Hiro Hamada, Cass Hamada, and Tadashi Hamada

big hero 6 cosplay - hiro hamada by jin (behindinfinity), cass hamada by kat langomez, and tadashi hamada by miguel - merkymerx

“You boys spend too much time cooped up with your robots! We’re going outside today!”

- Jin (behindinfinity) on Facebook

The overworked yet extremely supportive aunt of the brothers Tadashi and Hiro, Aunt Cass is the owner of a popular San Fransokyo Bakery and Coffee Shop. She is extremely proud of her two genius nephews, and is always ready to give them the love and support they need. She does get a little overwhelmed sometimes, quoting:

“For ten years, I’ve done the best I could to raise you. Have I been perfect? No. Do I know anything about children? No! Should I have picked up a book on parenting?! PROBABLY! Where was I going? I had a point.”

- Disney Wikia

It’s been a while since I last featured Jin and Miguel. Their latest work from Big Hero 6 has been going around the internet and I have to say, this is probably one of my favorites! Aunt Cass especially since she looks like she could dote on the boys all day! Please visit the cosplayers Facebook Pages: Jin (behindinfinity) as Hiro, Miguel – merkymerx as Tadashi, and Kat Langomez as Aunt Cass!

Vocaloid 2: Hatsune Miku 58

vocaloid 2 cosplay - hatsune miku 58

わがまま 陰口 乗り過ごし
Selfish people, gossiping, missing my station
書き間違え 腹痛 怒鳴り声
Miswriting, stomachache, angry shouting
間が悪い着信 人混み
Incoming calls at the wrong time, the crowd
もうぜんぶまとめて
To all of them

お断りします お断りします 断固
No thank you, no thank you, absolutely
お断りします ご遠慮します
No thank you, leave me alone

“No Thank You”
Lyrics and Translation by Vocalochu

This song’s kinda cute for something so full of angst, haha! Anyway, isn’t this cosplay of Miku amazing? It reminds me of append for some reason. Thanks to Ellen for sending this in!

Tokyo Ghoul: Uta

tokyo ghoul cosplay - uta by lalaax

A “ghoul” or human-like creature who hunts and devours human flesh, Uta owns the Hysy ArtMask Studio in the 4th Ward. Despite his appearance, he is said to be a calm ghoul who speaks kindly and makes masks for both ghouls and human customers alike. Although he is friends with Yomo Renji, he used to get into a lot of fights with him which caused the 4th ward to become uninhabitable.

Meet Chinese cosplayer, LALAax! She has one of the most amazing galleries I’ve seen! Please visit her in Facebook, Deviant Art, World Cosplay, Cure, or Weibo! Thanks to Kise for sharing this!

Sword Art Online: Alfheim Online: Yui and Titania (Asuna)

sword art online - alfheim online cosplay - yui and titania / asuna

Yui is an artificial intelligence designed to monitor the emotions and mental health of the players in Sword Art Online. Kirito saved her from being deleted by Cardinal by converting and storing her data into his own NerveGear. She later appears in Alfheim Online as a Private Navigation Pixie and helped Kirito locate Asuna. Yui refers to Kirito and Asuna her “Papa” and “Mama” respectively, as they consider Yui their first “daughter” as well.

Well, isn’t this the most adorable thing you’ve ever come across? It’s cute how Yui gets annoyed at anyone coming between Kirito and Asuna. Thanks to Frosty for sharing this!

Card Captor Sakura: Kinomoto Sakura 11

card captor sakura cosplay - kinomoto sakura 11

会いたいな 会えないな せつないな この気持ち
I want to see you, but I can't... How sad, these feelings...
言えないの 言いたいの
I can't say it, but I want to.
チャンス逃してばかり
I just keep letting my chance slip by.

だって だって
But still, but still
翼広げ二人で
Together, let’s spread our wings and
空をマラャ刀@夢をユニゾンしたい
marathon across the sky; I want our dreams to be in unison

“Catch You, Catch Me”
Lyrics and Translation by Anime Lyrics

Isn’t she cute? Among all of Sakura’s outfits, this is probably the most iconic and most easily recognizable! I think I might actually like this one the best too, next to the kimono she wore in that episode where her brother, Toya, gave his powers to Yue. Thanks again to Laura for sending this in!

Kuroshitsuji: Sebastian Michaelis and Ciel Phantomhive 04

kuroshitsuji / black butler cosplay - sebastian michaelis and ciel phantomhive 4

溶けたのやっかいな 氷みたいな私を
I’m troublesome after I melted like ice
優しくすくって 上唇で遊ぶ
You tenderly scoop me up and and toy around with me with your lips

それでもひとつの愛の形を探す
Nevertheless, I search for a single form of love
遠くよりも今を結んだ 枯れた瞳は
My dried eyes tied it to the present rather than a time far beyond
できればこのまま 包まれて終わりたい
If I can, I want to end while shrouded this like
二人で秘めた 淡い肌 月も隠れてる
Together, we concealed our pale selves; the moon is hiding, too

“Monochrome Kiss”
Lyrics and Translation by Words of Songs

I don’t know about this cosplay… it makes me nervous posting it here in blogspot, but oh well! If Google tells me to, then I’ll just take it down! Anyway, I thought the opening theme of the first season was appropriate to go with the photo! Thanks to Clara for sending this in!

Kamigami no Asobi: Anubis Ma’at

kamigami no asobi cosplay - anubis ma'at by shion

The Egyptian God of the Dead, Anubis is a shy deity who rarely appears in public. He does, however, have a curious side to him, and thus hides in the shadows most of the time. He prefers the company of animals because he feels closer to them and they have no sin. Anubis also tends to speak unique words that only Thoth can understand.

I haven’t seen Kamigami no Asobi yet, but I think Shion did a great job on Anubis! And I really think this cosplay could use a lot more views and faves, so please do visit Shion’s World Cosplay Account and give her your support!

Fushigi Yuugi: Tamahome

fushigi yuugi cosplay - tamahome by kyan yutakaA second stage play adaptation of Watase Yuu’s popular manga series, Fushigi Yuugi is set to perform at the Shinagawa Prince Hotel Club ex from March 19 to 29 this year according to Crunchyroll.

Only two of the actors have been revealed so far: 29-year-old Kyan Yutaka from the visual kei “air” rock band, Golden Bomber as Tamahome, and 18-year-old gravure idol/actress, Ito Risaka as Yuuki Miaka. The play is produced by Nelke Planning and directed by Okumura Naoyoshi.

Advance tickets will be on sale on Valentine’s Day, February 14.

Since the story will be told from Tamahome’s point of view, I’m sure it will be something that many fans will look forward to. I actually prefer Hotohori than Tamahome, so I really hope the actor they’ll choose will fit the character. Thanks to Aril for sharing this!

Sword Art Online: Gun Gale Online: Kirito

sword art online - gun gale online cosplay - kirito

At the request of Kikuoka Seijirou, who is the head of the net crimes division, Kazuto agreed to convert his account in order to enter and investigate the Death Gun incidents in Gun Gale Online. Upon his first Full Dive in, he was stunned to see that his avatar was extremely feminine. At one point, a player even offered to buy his account as this kind of default avatar was quite rare. Kirito managed to befriend Sinon as she initially thought Kirito was a female player like herself.

Oh wow, this cosplayer looks amazing! Definitely going to be one of cosplay goals in the far, far future! How far, probably to infinity! Thanks to Taylor for sending this in!
