Shigatsu wa Kimi no Uso: Miyazono Kaori and Arima Kosei

shigatsu wa kimi no uso / your lie in april cosplay - miyazono kaori by ritsu and arima kosei by mikado

雨上がりの虹も 凛と咲いた花も 色づき溢れ出す
A rainbow after rain, and a flower that bloomed with the cold, are abundantly changing colors.
茜色の空 仰ぐ君に あの日 恋に落ちた
That day, I fell in love with you who looked up at the blazing red sky

瞬間のドラマチックフィルムの中の1コマも
That one instant in a scene of the dramatic film
消えないよ 心に刻むから
Won’t disappear, because it's etched into my heart

君だよ 君なんだよ 教えてくれた
It’s you, you who taught me.
暗闇も光るなら 星空になる
If the darkness shines too, then it’ll become a night of stars.
悲しみを笑顔に もう隠さないで
Don’t hide your sadness behind a laughing face anymore
煌めくどんな星も 君を照らすから
Because all the twinkling stars will shine on you


Another amazing cosplay by Mikado as Kosei along with Ritsu as Kaori! I heard a lot of good things about this series, and I’ve been seeing lots of fan art from it too! Maybe it’s about time I check this series out. Thanks to Kathy for sharing this!

Zootopia: Judy Hopps and Nick Wilde 02

zootopia cosplay - judy hopps by mon and nick wilde by stayxxxxAlthough she was assigning to parking duty by Chief Bogo, Judy abandoned her shift in order to arrest Duke Weaselton, a thief who stole what appeared to be onion bulbs. Because of this, Judy was once again reprimanded by Bogo.

Mrs. Otterton then arrived in Bogo’s office, pleading for someone to find her missing husband and Judy immediately volunteered! Bogo reluctantly agreed, giving Judy 48 hours on the condition that she resigns if she fails this assignment.

Hitori left me a comment saying that Stay cosplayed Nick Wilde. I actually found this photo some time ago, but well, Internet problems and all that, you know?

As always, please support stayxxxx and Mon夢 through their respective Facebook pages! Thanks again to Hitori for sending this in!

Brave 10: Kamanosuke Yuri

brave 10 cosplay - kamanosuke yuri by hThe leader of a group of brigands, Kamanosuke Yuri is a bloodthirsty individual who enjoys killing people. Despite constantly proclaiming he is is male, his feminine appearance causes a lot of confusion about his gender. Even more confusing is the fact that he later develops a crush on Kirigakure Saizo, the leader of the Sanada Ten Braves. During an illusion, Yuri is portrayed as a princess who is in love with a male servant.

I was actually hoping this was a cosplay of Kenshin, but of course, he probably wouldn’t wear nail polish, would he? This character is very interesting though, isn’t he? I guess characters who are confusing gender-wise are very popular!

If you like this cosplay, please support Taiwanese cosplayer, H, though her Blog, Facebook, and World Cosplay! Thanks again to Sierra for sending this in!

    Kuroshitsuji: Ciel Phantomhive 20

    kuroshitsuji / black butler cosplay - ciel phantomhive by riaraそれでも確かに愛の形を探した
    Nevertheless, I definitely searched for a form of love
    遠くよりも今を結んだ 濡れた瞳は
    My teary 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
    その願いは 夜は 虚しく 朝を連れてくる
    In your wish, night brings the morning along in vain

    優しくて 熱くて 卑怯なキスで
    With a tender, passionate, yet cowardly kiss

    彩ってよ 最後の夜 月が照らしてる
    Color it, the moon illuminates our final night


    “Monochrome Kiss”
    Lyrics and Translation by
    Words of Songs

      Final Fantasy XIII: Snow Villers

      final fantasy xiii cosplay - snow villersThe self-proclaimed “hero” of the series, Snow Villers is a relentless optimist who wished to help everyone in need. Although his heart is in the right place, he tends to talk and act before thinking, unintentionally causing trouble or worse, putting others in danger! Lightning once described Snow as “arrogant and chummy from the get-go, thinks he's everyone's pal,” and that his best quality is being “too stubborn to die.” She also compared Snow to her father, as someone who is easy-going and passionate, but unreliable.

      Either way, this Snow is quite handsome, don’t you agree? As usual, if anyone happens to know who the cosplayer is, please let me know so that I can credit him/her! Thanks again to Tricia for sending this in!

      Final Fantasy XII: Ashelia B'nargin Dalmasca 02

      final fantasy xii cosplay - ashelia b'nargin dalmasca by rainer tachibana

      A fiercely independent and driven young woman, Ashelia B’nargin Dalmasca will stop at nothing to restore her family to its rightful place. Her proud facade can only be broken by memories of Lord Rasler, as she is reminded of the wonderful memories of her youth.

      Although Vaan is the game’s protagonist, most of the story focuses on Ashe’s drive to accumulate the power she needs to avenge her kingdom. However, she once turned away from great power when she realized that it would corrupt her ideals.

      Rainer Tachibana makes such a beautiful Ashe! She has since deactivated her Deviant Art account, but if you’d like to see more of her cosplay, please visit her in Facebook! Thanks to Tony for sending this in!
