Sisters Alodia and Ashley Gosiengfiao represented Team Philippines in the recent Anime Festival Asia (AFA) 2009 held in Suntec Convention Center, Singapore. The sisters performed a short skit in their Witchblade cosplay with Alodia as Amaha Masane and Ashley as Shiori Tsuzuki.
I was quite pleased when Australian cosplayer, ~Rima-kawaii contacted me in my Deviant Art account in order to contribute this lovely photo of her as Touya Rima and her friend ~silverfiction "Mik" as Souen Ruka. It's nice to see a Western twist in the popular series, Vampire Knight by Hino Matsuri. Thanks so much for this, Rima!
If you'd like to see a larger version of the image, go to her Deviant Art account. I know this one doesn't have the VK logos on it, but that's because I asked for the unedited version.
This is one of Jesuke's latest cosplays, and I have to say, I'm so glad she finally cosplayed Squall! I've always wanted to feature a Squall cosplayer, but couldn't find one that I liked. Great work, Jesuke! Keep it up!
You can either love Rinoa or hate her. Some Final Fantasy fans think she's cute, while others think she's annoying. Honestly speaking though, without a voice actress portraying how she actually says her lines, it's quite difficult to determine.
Then again, even with a voice actress, I think people will still either love her or hate her.
What I do love is Saya's cosplay of her. She looks very much like Rinoa... like she came straight out of the game! Wonderful work as usual, Saya! I think I'm now a fan of hers too!
Love only hurts me always...or so you whispered
You were scared of believing and cried, didn't you?
Considered to be the leader of the Gundam Meisters, Neil was killed in the line of duty near the end of the war. However, after 4 years had passed, the Meisters once again had to take arms and Setsuna F. Seiei recruited Neil's twin brother, Lyle to become Lockon Stratos.
Beautiful cosplay by Jesuke and Chii-Bye of Deviant Art! I feel badly for Lyle having to struggle to distinguish himself from his brother, but people are people I guess. Thank you for sharing this!
That cosplayer is known as Kaname. I recently found out that he is also the same cosplayer behind the other Cloud Strife I featured more than a year ago.
You have to admit, Kaname makes a very convincing Cloud. If anyone happens to know where his website is, I’d love to link his images back to him. Thank you!
She looks like an older, more mature version of Rinoa to be honest. But I think a few people will get mad at me for saying that. Beautiful cosplay though! And the characters for the cosplayer’s name means “little fish”, Xiao Yu. Great cosplaying!
The "Sky of the Night Light", Noctis is the last Heir of the Caelum Dynasty and protects his city-state from those who seek the Crystals. The Crystals allow him to control his weapon by telekinesis, as they range from swords, to spears, to lances. He is said to be the first to break the mold of typical Final Fantasy protagonists' personalities, as he is idiosyncratic.
Beautiful cosplay! I've actually yet to play this game, or any of the Final Fantasy games for that matter, but I've always appreciated their art work. And it looks like the cosplayer put a lot of effort in the details of his sword too. Great job!
Nomura Tetsuya designed Yuna with hibiscus flowers as her name depicts. Her name also means “night” so her weapons are empowered by the moon. Yuna also has heterochromia, which explains her different colored eyes; her blue eye comes from her half-Spiran bloodline and her green eye comes from her half-Al Bhed bloodline.
Beautiful cosplay! Good location too. I wonder if she had a hard time keeping her hair fixed? Thanks for sharing this!
Cosplayer Saya makes a beautiful Kuja. I cropped the original photo in order to focus the image on the cosplayer more. Thanks to Mini Mandy for sending this in!
A character whose personality is almost impossible to define, Noctis Lucis Caelum, or “Noct”, hides his shyness around Stella Nox Fleuret by acting “cool” when they first met. Unfortunately for him, however, this gave Stella a cold and unsociable first impression. He does, however, smile and becomes more open to those he is close with.
The effect of this is so nice! The photographer did a very good job of catching this shot at the right moment. Perfect pose from the cosplayer too! Thanks to Feret for sharing this!
EDIT: Thanks to Kaiyobi for letting me know this is *AmenoKitarou from Deviant Art! Please view the original deviation here.
The police commander in charge of capturing Dark, Satoshi graduated from high school at the age of 8, and college at the age of 13. He enrolled in Daisuke’s middle school as he knew Diasuke was Dark’s alter ego. Although most people find him cold and distant, Daisuke insisted that they become friends.
This is Hagaren, the same cosplayer as X/1999’s Monou Fuma. When I first saw this on Deviant Art, I immediately fell in love with the photo, so I had to feature it here!
Please take note that Nanao's Cosplay Research may be closing down soon! New cosplays will be added on Cosplay Holic from now on. Thanks for everyone's support! Watch out for more cosplays here on Cosplay Holic!
Then again, Len and Rin are supposedly "one and the same", aren't they? Where in the world could Rin be?
Deviant Cosplayer *ac024, also known as Chen Mei Yi, makes a beautiful Ichijou. Thank you for sharing this with us! And we are most certainly looking forward to more of your cosplays soon!
Cosplayer ClamWings makes a beautiful Doll! I love all the details in her costume. Thanks to Itoshi for sending this in!
Very convincing cosplay! Although the photo is a little dark, we can still see his signature colorful kimono. I love that creepy look he's giving the audience. Thanks to Vento for emailing this!
EDIT: Thanks to Nocturne for letting me know that the cosplayer is Lithium Flower from Deviant Art!
Cute and daring cosplay! I've been looking for other characters from the series for a while. Ritsu really creeps me out though. Thanks to Harriet for sending this! And he knows Nagisa is cosplayed by Rippie, but does anyone know who the other cosplayer is?
EDIT: Welcome to Cosplay Holic, Rippie!
