Diabolik Lovers: Sakamaki Ayato 02

Although he is one of triplets, Ayato is well-known to be the troublemaker of the household. He is an attention-seeker who loves mischief, and he looks down upon others. He also loves to brag, referring to himself as Ore-sama (Yours Truly) and commanding everyone to call him Ayato-sama.

I bet a lot of fangirls would love to trade places with that rose, hehe! I wish I could look that intense in a photo. Thanks to Rianne for sending this in!

Vocaloid 2: Kagamine Len 28

君は王女　僕は召使
You’re the queen, I’m your servant.
運命分かつ　哀れな双子
We’re a pitiable pair of twins separated by our fate.
君を守る　その為ならば
I’m willing to become evil for you,
僕は悪にだってなってやる
if only so that I could protect you.

期待の中僕らは生まれた
We were born into the world carrying others’ expectations,
祝福するは教会の鐘
and blessed by the sound of the church’s bells.
大人たちの勝手な都合で
By the adults’ own convenient arrangement,
僕らの未来は二つに裂けた
our future was split into two.

たとえ世界の全てが
Even if the entire world
君の敵になろうとも
should become your enemy,
僕が君を守るから
I will always protect you,
君はそこで笑っていて
so you just be yourself and smile.

“Servant of Evil”
“His Significance of Existence”
Lyrics and Translation by Vocaloid Lyrics

Shyo Akupo is glaring rather intensely, no? He is one of the few male cosplayers that I’ve seen to pull Kagamine Len off so flawlessly! Please do visit his Facebook, Twitter, and World Cosplay and give him your support! Thanks again to Shuichi for sending this in!

Suki-tte Ii na yo: Kurosawa Yamato and Tachibana Mei 02

When Mei was still a child, she tried her best to be sociable and friendly towards her classmates, but they still isolated her for some reason. When her class raised a rabbit together, Misa blamed Mei that she forced the rabbit to eat some strange grass, even though it was actually Misa’s fault that the rabbit had died. The teacher believed Misa and punished Mei for something she had nothing to do with. As a result, Mei began to believe that everyone was like Misa, and she began avoiding people all together.

“People betray each other all the time and at school, it’s just a bunch of idiots who need someone to bully. I don't want to hang out with that kind of people. So I don’t need friends.”

Source: Sukitte ii na yo Wiki

That's kind of sad, isn’t it? And for that to happen to a young child, Mei would definitely have emotional scars, but I hope Yamato would be able to help her overcome her fears. Thanks to Taylor for sending this in!

D. Gray-man: Allen Walker 08

Kind, generous, and very polite, Allen Walker has a tendency to sacrifice himself for the sake of others. More often than not, he is willing to let his body and emotions take devastating blows if it will help or save someone else. However, this trait has angered several of his comrades and friends, especially Kanda Yu and Lenalee Lee.

Fisheye Placebo: Frey 02

Frey is shown to be a rather intelligent individual. He appears to have a manipulative side to him shown when he toys with Vance during their internet chat when he pretended to be Robin, and again when he confronts Vance as an agent. Frey is cunning, observant, and appears to hold philosophical standpoints, shown during the conversation when he calls Vance a "Man in sheep's clothing."

Tokyo Ghoul: Yoshimura

Yoshimura is the manager of Anteiku. He is a kind and reasonable ghoul who provides aid and food to ghouls who are incapable of hunting on their own. He took Kaneki in after he became a half-ghoul and taught him how he could blend in with humans by controlling his ghoul nature.

Wow, that is just amazing make up work right there! If you go to Yomi’s World Cosplay Gallery, you will notice that he’s not really as old as he looks here! Please do support him through his World Cosplay account! Thanks to Seth for suggesting this!

Sailor Stars: Seiya Kou

The leader of the Sailor Starlights, Seiya Kou is the lead vocalist of the pop star group, the Three Lights. Seiya tends to act arrogantly and appears to be confident in her own abilities. When she enters a local high school, Seiya becomes the school’s star athlete in American football, upsetting Tenoh Haruka as she was the previous star (in track and field). She developed feelings for Usagi, but eventually regarded them to be unrequited love.

You might remember Korean cosplayer Asuka from a previous post in 2014. Doesn’t she look amazing as Seiya? You might want to visit her websites on Tumblr, Twitter, and World Cosplay for more of her works! Thanks again to Lara for sending this in!

RWBY: Weiss Schnee 02

The heiress of the Schnee Dust Company, Weiss Schnee is the wielder of the espada ropera, Myrtenaster, which channels the energy of Dust to create powerful spells. She is cold and demeaning towards others, and she initially does not get along well with Ruby, but their relationship takes a turn for the better after the Professor advised her to be the best person that she could be. Weiss does, however, still have a tendency to insult Ruby whenever she makes mistakes.

Vocaloid 2: Gumi 05

Sa pagikot ng mundong ito,
In every spin this world makes
ang nais ko ika’y aking mapasaya.
my only wish, is that to make you happy
Ang tinago kong mga luha
the tears that I hid
sa iyo ay aking iniwan na sa mundo ko.
from you, are left in my world

Ngayon nandito ako na yumayakap sa iyo
Now I’m here that is hugging you
Patawarin mo ako, nasaktan ko puso mo.
forgive me if I hurt your heart
Ngayon nandito ako hindi nang bibitawan pa ang
Now I’m here, and not going to let go of
Iyong kamay dito sa’ting kuwento ng buhay.
your hand, here in our life’s story

kuwento ng buhay.

Rurouni Kenshin: Himura Kenshin 06

When Shishio Makoto began a movement seeking to overthrow the Meiji Government, Kenshin was forced to resume his training and mend his relationship with his teacher, Hiko Seijurou. After a heated exchange of words, Seijurou agrees, and taught Kenshin the final two techniques, Kuzu-ryusen (Nine-headed Dragon Strike) and Amakakeru Ryu no Hirameki (Heavens Gliding Dragon Flash). His training also developed a desire to survive, so that Kaoru would not be shocked by his death.

I didn’t know Kenshin’s birthday was on June 20! And I’ve loved this character forever! Maybe I will start re-reading all of the books again. Thanks to Cosplayers Archive for sharing this!

…am I the only one who thinks Sai looks a lot like Sato Takeru here?

Star Driver: Shindou Sugata 02

As the owner of the King Cybody, the Kiraboshi order vacated the leadership of the order’s First Division “Emperor” to Sugata, hoping that he would eventually claim it. He joined the Glittering Crux, manipulating Nichi Keito, his friends, and the Crux into believing that he wanted to use Samekh’s powers to become king. It was later revealed that he actually wanted to re-seal Samekh even if it cost him his life.

Tokyo Ghoul: Kaneki Ken 02

A 19-year-old university freshman, Kaneki Ken received an organ transplant from Kamishiro Rize, who was ironically trying to kill him before she was struck by a falling i-beam and seemingly killed. After the operation, Kaneki began developing ghoul-like tendencies and his rationality began to wane. As both human and ghoul, he often fights with his ghoul side in order to keep his ghoul identity a secret and continue to live as a normal human being.

I’ve been getting a lot of Tokyo Ghoul emails lately. This show must be pretty famous! I’d better start watching more recent anime just to keep myself in the loop!

Sailor Stars: Eternal Sailor Chibichibi

When she first appeared in the series, Chibichibi appears to be about two years old, and cannot really talk yet. She usually imitates others, but mostly says “chibi”. Her names has two meanings, literally “small person” or “small child”, and as a pun meaning “making something last”.

She eventually transforms, under her own power, into a Sailor Soldier, Sailor Chibichibi. Although she does not to appear to have any attacks of her own, she does increase Sailor Moon’s power.

Oh wow, doesn’t Mikuro Nekomi make the perfect Chibichibi? I’m actually surprised to find cosplays of this character, so I had to feature it asap! Thanks again to Sophia for suggesting this!

RWBY: Ruby Rose 02

Ruby has the unique ability to maneuver at superhuman speed, impressing even the headmaster of Beacon Academy, Professor Ozpin, so much that he accepts her into the academy two years sooner than normal. Because she is the youngest, she can be a little childish at times and is obsessed with weapons. She was inspired to become a huntress by the fairy tales she read as a little girl and wanted to become a heroine who fought for what was right and protect people without asking for anything in return.

Princess Tutu: Princess Kraehe 03

Although Princess Kraehe loved Mytho dearly, her jealousy interfered with Princess Tutu’s attempts to restore Mytho’s heart, because Kraehe feared that he would fall in love with someone else. Her father, the Raven, used her as a means to revive himself, to which Kraehe dutifully obeys. It was later revealed that she was not a raven herself, but a human girl kidnapped by the Raven during his attack on the town.
