Ne~PON? x RaiPON!: Citrus

unknown cosplay 85 from winter comiket 2010 / ne~pon? x raipon! cosplay - citrusI’m not even sure if she’s cosplaying or not, but she’s downright adorable isn’t she? Those look like small oranges on her wrists and lemons on her hair.

Whoever thought citruses could look this cute?

If anyone has any idea what anime, manga, or game she’s from, please do let me know. Thanks to Mike for suggesting this!

EDIT: Thanks to St. Arcana for letting me know she is Citrus from Ne~PON? x RaiPON! Sorry for the delay..!

To Aru Majustsu no Index: Index Librorum Prohibitorum

to aru majutsu no index cosplay - index librorum prohibitorum by kanda midoriA young nun from a branch of the Church of England, Necessarius, Index has been implanted with the 103,000 magical texts of the Index Librorum Prohibitum (“List of Prohibited Books”) because of her photographic memory. This makes magicians wonder if Index is even human because one grimoire is poisonous to the mind and could even possibly kill a person, let alone thousands. Her sorcery name is Dedicatus545, "The devoted lamb that protects the knowledge of the strong."

Another beautiful cosplay by Kanda Midori! Although Wikipedia says Index has thigh-length, silvery-blue hair, I think we can overlook this minor detail. I mean, long wigs are hard to keep well-styled after all. Thanks again to Edward for sending this in!

Angel Beats!: Nakamura Yuri 04

angel beats! cosplay - nakamura yuri 04 by michan limWhen Yuri's parents stepped out of the house, a group of robbers broke in to steal whatever commodities they could. Failing to find anything of value, they turned to Yuri, as she was the eldest of the four children, and threatened to kill each of her siblings at 10 minute intervals if she does not cooperate with them.

It is still unknown how Yuri died, but she confessed to Otonashi Yuzuru that she was certain no one who commits suicide makes it into the afterlife.

Great cosplay by Michan Lim! Although she sent this to me together with Nichan’s cosplay of Shiina, I wanted to make sure that I don’t flood Cosplay Holic with Angel Beats! Thanks again to Michan for sharing this with us!

Vocaloid 2: Kagamine Rin 10

vocaloid 2 cosplay - kagamine rin 10Kagamine Rin is the third character to have reached 10 features in Cosplay Holic! In case you missed it, the first one was Hatsune Miku who is also from Vocaloid, and the second was Kuran Kaname from Vampire Knight.

I guess this goes to show how popular Miku, Kaname, and Rin are. Then again, Kaname is one of my favorite characters, so it may be a little biased… just a little! Thanks to China for suggesting this!

Fate/Unlimited Codes: Saber Lily 02

fate/unlimited codes cosplay - saber lily 02There is still no official background for Saber Lily, but another fan speculation states this is how Saber would probably look is she never had to hide her gender when she was alive. In Battle Moon Wars, this was how Saber looked when she was Kohaku’s Servant.

I think Saber Lily is still Saber, but it would be nice if there was some background story for her too like Dark Saber. Thanks to Belia for sending this!

She has been working hard since then to try and catch up to Reimu with her secret training and magic development.

Katekyo Hitman Reborn!: Chrome Dokuro and Hibari Kyoya

katekyo hitman reborn! cosplay - chrome dokuro and hibari kyoya by schoki and hibanatorWhen she was transferred into the future, Chrome’s physical condition became worse as her illusionary internal organs began failing one after the other. The adult Hibari Kyoya then instructed her to use the power of her Vongola Ring to sustain her organs through her own illusions. This allowed Chrome to escape any immediate danger, and thus prolonging her life.

Cosplayers Schoki and Hibanator make an excellent Chrome and Kyoya! I love the setting and Kyoya’s fierce attitude! Thanks to Itsuchi, their photographer as well as Miranda for the suggestion!

Vocaloid 2: Megurine Luka 07

unknown cosplay 84 from comiket 2010 - vocaloid 2 cosplay - megurine lukaIf I were to take a wild guess (which I did), I’d say she was from Pink Sweets; the game I’m not entirely familiar with. However, after further searching, I was not able to come across any character from that series who resembles this cosplayer at all.

I’m just hoping my readers’ guesses turn out to be much better than mine. Thanks to Ikehara for suggesting this!

EDIT: Thanks to Anon for letting me know this is Megurine Luka from the PV "Cinnamon Roll"!

Gundam Seed Destiny: Cagalli Yula Athha 02

gundam seed destiny cosplay - caglli yula athha 02Although Cagalli knew the true nature of the Atlantic Federation, she was manipulated into endorsing an alliance between Earth Alliance and Orb by her fiancé, Yuna Roma Seiran and his father, Unato Ema Seiran. Her arranged marriage to Yuna would finalize this agreement, but her twin brother Kira decides to kidnap her in order to remind her of her late father’s ideals. Cagalli later assumes the bridge position in the Archangel previously held by Miriallia Haw.

Cute cosplayer! It’s been a while since I last saw this series, and even though I have some reservations, it still reminds me of some good memories. Thanks to Cain for suggesting this!

Umineko no Naku Koro ni: Beatrice

umineko no naku koro ni cosplay - beatrice

The series’ main antagonist, Beatrice is an Endless Witch who was once human; straying from the domain of mortals. Similar to demons, it is said that she appears when summoned and lends to that individual her power for a compensation of equivalent value. She has the ability to control Life and Death as well as repairing damaged objects if she so wishes.

Impressive cosplay! I really love her dress with all the laces, ribbons, and layers! Thanks to Orin for sending this!

Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt: Panty Anarchy and Stocking Anarchy

panty & stocking with garterbelt cosplay - panty anarchy and stocking anarchy by tasha and tomiaWhen the Anarchy sisters, Panty and Stocking, were kicked out of heaven for bad behavior, they are sent to Daten City in order to collect Heaven Coins to regain entrance to Heaven. Panty is quite rude and aggressive, almost an exact opposite to Stocking who is generally more level-headed and intelligent. Panty does not take her Ghost-hunting duties as seriously as Stocking does, preferring other earthly pleasures before she returns to heaven.

Beautiful cosplay by legendary Korean duo, Tasha and Tomia! I really love their matching poses and gorgeous wigs! Thanks to Alberstein for sending this!
