Gensomaden Saiyuki: Genjo Sanzo 03

A Buddhist monk who seems to have no values for the religion, Kouryuu is chosen as the 31st Genjo Sanzo, following his master, Koumyou Sanzo. On the surface, he seems cold and distant, but he cares for his companions dearly. He carried a Smith and Wesson revolver and uses his Maten Sutra in combat.

Beautiful photography. I never did get to see how this anime ended. I think it lasted 3 seasons with a few OVAs. Great work, still!

Gensomaden Saiyuki: Genjo Sanzo and Son Goku

Known as the "Mongkey King", Son Goku was locked away in the rocks for 500 years due to the crimes he committed when he was young. Genjo Sanzo came to his rescue because he heard Goku calling him, but he merely set him free because he wanted to quiet him. Goku has been around Sanzo ever since and follows him in his Journey to the West.

There has been 4 seasons of this anime so far, but I only got to see until season 2; Requiem. Does anyone know how the anime ended? Whatever happened to them after they've reached their destination?

..oh yeah, very awesome cosplay. :D

Kuroshitsuji: Sebastian Michaelis

The butler of the Phantomhive household, Sebastian Michaelis is akuma de shitsuji desukara, literally "a demon and a butler" or "one hell of a butler". He is actually the demon with whom Ciel Phantomhive has formed a contract with, to serve him and protect him until he fulfills his goals.

And of course, as soon as that happens, Sebastian will take Ciel's soul; as their contract states.

A rather splendid cosplay of the demon "servant". It would be interesting to know why exactly he would go to such lengths to get Ciel's soul. I wouldn't think demons would work so hard for just any soul. Great cosplaying!

Original: "Human with Feathers"

I’ve been wondering about this cosplay for quite some time, and yet I still have no idea who she is or where she’s from.

I had initially thought she could be an angel from Angel Sanctuary, or maybe from a series known as D.N.Angel. But I can’t find any anime images of angels that look like her.

Anyone have any ideas?

EDIT: Thanks to Hydell for letting me know this is an original cosplay by Kaya.

Kaya took the elements she loved and put them together for this private photo shoot. From what I can understand, this is not really an angel to her, but more like a simple person born with wings. Very beautifully done, wouldn't you agree? Thanks also to Ayaki for the wonderful photography!
