Sailor Stars: Eternal Sailor Moon

かなしみが　いま　セーラースマイル
Give sadness now a sailor smile
奇跡をおこすの　セーラーウイング
Bringing a miracle, a sailor wing
だれだってかがやく星を持つ
Everybody carries a shining star inside
まけない！　あしたへセーラーエール
I won't give up! To tomorrow, a sailor yell
ゼッタイ！　つかまえる　セーラースター
For sure! I will catch it! The sailor star
このちかい　とどけ　銀河まで
Let this vow sound through the whole galaxy

A stunning cosplay of Eternal Sailor Moon by Alice Locket! Among all of Sailor Moon’s forms, Eternal is probably one of the most elaborate designs. Alice was able to pull it off beautifully though! Thanks to Diana for sending this in!

Sword Art Online: Silica 03

Bright, cheerful, and supportive, Silica is a rare Beast Tamer in Sword Art Online who has a deep attachment to her Feathery Dragon, Pina. She is easily embarrassed and flustered when it comes to romance as she is only 13-years-old. However, Silica became attached to Kirito after he helped her retrieve the flower from the Hill of Memories in order to revive her pet, who died protecting her.

Cute cosplayer! I find it interesting that she used silver cloth for her armor instead of the usual, hard materials some cosplayers use. I guess that’s one other way of making cosplay armor. Thanks again to Jane for sending this in!

Hakuoki ~Shinsengumi Kitan~: Okita Souji 04

Okita Souji drank the Water of Life hoping that it would cure his tuberculosis and allow him to return and fight alongside the Shinsengumi. Although he did become a Rasetsu, it was later discovered that he is unable to heal quickly when wounded by silver weapons. The accelerated healing process also shortens one’s lifespan, and it does not completely heal Souji of his fatal illness.

Another amazing cosplay by Ryuuseiki! I’m surprised this doesn’t have more likes on Deviant Art, I think it looks really good! Please show the cosplayer your support when you can! And thanks again to Lilibeth for sending this in!

Shingeki no Kyojin | Uta no Prince-sama: Mikasa Ackermann and Jinguji Ren

This is probably one of the cutest photos I’ve seen in a long time.

I don’t know about you guys, but I can picture Ren dancing PSY’s “Gentleman” if it means he could make a little girl laugh. And tiny Mikasa looks like she’s really happy to meet Ren.

Excuse me while I melt in a puddle of fangirl goo.

Kyoukai no Kanata: Kuriyama Mirai

Kuriyama Mirai is a first-year high school student who has the ability to control blood. She comes from a bloodline of Spirit World Warriors, but her abilities are so unique that they are considered heretical even within the scope of the Spirit World. As a result, she is often isolated, and had even considered suicide before she met Kanbara Akihito.

Neneko really looks like Mirai here. You guys might be interested in looking through her entire Facebook Album. Please give her your likes and support! Thanks to Jackie for sending this in!

She soon encounters Noel, and asks him and Serah for their help.

Another fantastic cosplay by Miss Loki Heart! Although the feathers were added later on, it’s still a very strong, well-planed photo. Thanks to Migz for sending this in!

Fate/Extra CCC: Saber Bride

When BB used her abilities to create the Sakura Labyrinth, Saber and her master, Kishinami Hakuno were brought to the Far Side of the Moon Cell along with many others Master and Servants from the Moon Cell Holy Grail War on the Near Side. Saber Bride is the alternate costume for Red Saber who appears in Fate/Extra. Her true identity is later revealed to be Nero Claudius Caesar Augustus Germanicus, the Fifth Roman Emperor.

A stunning cosplay by Selena Adorian with photography by Salvarion! It looks like the ends of her skirt are really burned off, then same with the game version! Please check out her Deviant Art Gallery for more of her photos! Thanks to Grace for sending this in!

Sekai-Ichi Hatsukoi: Onodera Ritsu and Takano Masamune

After overhearing his co-workers gossiping about him riding on his father’s coattails, Onodera Ritsu resigned from his father’s company so that he can prove to himself and to others that he could succeed even without his father’s influence. He applied in Marukawa Publishing as a literary editor, only to be assigned to the shoujo department, Emerald. He considered resigning again after meeting his intolerable boss, Takano Masamune, but his pride forced him to stay after Takano regarded him to be “useless”.

A rather striking pair of cosplayers with Silverx1307 as Ritsu and Ryuuseiki as Takano! I’ll admit, I wouldn’t mind having Takano as my manga editor, even if he is a little mean. Thanks to Lilibeth for sending this in!

Sword Art Online: Kirito 07

Because of his love for computers and Virtual Reality Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game (VRMMORPG), Kirito does not have many real world friends making him a bit socially inept. He is not very good with words and his directness may seem rude to others. It does not help that he can sometimes be overconfident, thinking that he is able to achieve impossible tasks that others can not.

My poor ignored Cosplay Holic. After finishing some massive manga projects, I’m completely drained out! Let’s hope I can get back to updating properly, because I really could use the break from all that drawing. Thanks to Jane for sending this in!

Unknown Cosplay #148

I realize this might sound really bad as a cosplay judge, but I forgot who the character the cosplayer is portraying as! I’m really sorry! But I do remember his performance which started with a few, heavy sword slashes and ended with a short dance of PSY’s “Gentleman”. I would have posted the Gentleman photo of this cosplay if it wasn’t so blurry!

If anyone can tell me who this character is and who’s the cosplayer underneath the armor, feel free to comment!

Marvel: War Machine

Due to Obadiah Stane's actions, Stark International began losing foreign contacts and thus fell into heavy debt. Tony Stark relapsed into alcoholism and was defeated by Magma. It was then that James Rupert “Rhodey” Rhodes first donned the Iron Man armor and defeated Magma. Stark proposed to Rhodes to take his place as Iron Man as both his company and personal life were in disarray.

This was another impressive cosplay from the Oh No! Manga OCTO CON 2 because of all the lights and moving parts in his armor. He even had the sound effects to go with his catwalk! I just hope the cosplayer didn’t have a hard time, since it must be pretty hot under all that armor.
