Hetalia: Axis Powers: America

hetalia: axis powers cosplay - america

Energetic and headstrong, America was raised by England who later fights for his own independence. He is the self-proclaimed leader of the Allied Forces but his ideas for solving international problems are often absurd. Unfortunately, America also tends to be oblivious to the opinion of others.

Beautiful cosplay! I love the simple yet elegant pose the cosplayer’s done with the American flag around her. Thanks to T.J. for sending this in!

EDIT: Thanks to ~Lsine for finding my blog and letting me know this is her cosplay!

Granado Espada: Leticia

granado espada / sword of the new world cosplay - leticia

Very little is known about the Premium Item Merchant, Leticia, but players of Granado Espada know her very well. She sells in-game items that cost real money, so you can bet players think about her all the time, especially when they’re deciding whether or not to make a purchase.

I think it would be safe to say she’s from a family of merchants though? Or a family who is into the business.

Cute cosplay! I love her dress, but I wonder what she’s looking at? Thanks to Renae for sending this in!

Guilty Gear XX: Bridget 04

guilty gear xx cosplay - bridget 04When Bridget was still a bounty hunter, Dizzy was one of his targets but defeating her left him unsatisfied. As such, he continued his journey and went after May, a member of the Jellyfish Pirates. Only then did he feel that he had proven his masculinity, and soon after, abandoned his life as a bounty hunter. He made amends with May and later befriended the Jellyfish Pirates.

Even without the white or blonde hair, she still makes a cute Bridget! Reminds me of the chibi cosplayer I posted back in 2009. Thanks to Fumiki for sending this in!

Bleach: Urahara Kisuke 02

bleach cosplay - urahara kisuke 02With a tendency to drive away his customers at the Urahara Shop, former Captain of the 12th Division Urahara Kisuke is a keen analyst and an avid inventor. He has the ability to discern his opponents’ weaknesses and attack patterns with ease. He trained Kurosaki Ichigo and some of his friends in the store’s cave-like basement, and was able to pass on some of his analytical skills to Ichigo.

I suppose this is what Urahara would look like if he had a similar fate to Neliel. Too adorable! Thanks to Robin for sending this in!

Death Note: Ryuzaki L. Lawliet, Yagami Light, and Amane Misa

death note cosplay - ryuzaki l lawliet yagami light kira and amane misaThis photo has been labeled as one of the most popular deviations of all time on Deviant Art. It’s easy to see why as the cosplay and the setting is superb, but a lot of people who became jealous of this popularity gave the cosplayers a hard time.

This is one of the reasons why I don’t allow hateful comments on Cosplay Holic. I do let constructive criticism slide in once in a while, but most of the time, I delete them. Cosplayers work hard on their cosplays, and it’s all for fun. It’s not something that should be taken too seriously.

And yes, everyone, please get it straight, Yagami Light’s cosplayer in this shoot, Jin Joson aka *behindinfinity, is a girl.

Miguel aka ~merkymerx is L, China aka ~snowpeachdrop is Misa, and ~littlesailboat is their photographer. Thanks to Cianna for sending this in!

A little help please? Thanks again to Bethany for sending this in!

EDIT: Thanks to everyone who commented that this is Yoshimitsu from Soul Calibur III!

Air Gear: Wanijima Akito/Agito 03

air gear cosplay - wanijima akito agito 03

Physically weak due to his short and thin stature, Akito/Agito is a powerful AT user because of his motivation, willpower, and pride. Akito, the innocent and non-violent personality, has been acting as Agito’s tuner until recently. Because Akito could not fully hear his own biorhythm, he could only keep his other half’s AT and Regalia barely operational. It was not until Nakayama Yayoi tuned him that Fang Regalia became complete.

Impressive cosplay, and with real rollerblades too! It looks like the cosplayer is wearing an anime convention’s ID, but I wonder which? Thanks to Omi for sending this in!

Você joga na pele de Gabe Logan, o protagonista do jogo, que é enviado a um navio ancorado para recuperar um pacote contendo uma tecnologia. Ao chegar no navio, entretanto, Logan se dá conta que a tecnologia foi roubada e sua parceira de longa data desapareceu. Devido aos fatos, a agência para qual o agente trabalha é fechada, cabendo a Logan procurar seu parceiro e a tecnologia roubada por conta própria.

Entre as novidades implementadas em Logan's Shadow está a possibilidade de atirar sob cobertura, embora o completamente às cegas. Além disso, Logan agora pode combater seus inimigos debaixo d'água, visto que porta um arpão e uma arma própria para combates submersos. Novos ataques corpo-a-corpo também foram adicionados, possibilitando que o jogador use seus inimigos como escudos humanos e quebre seus pescoços silenciosamente.

Slam Dunk: Rukawa Kaede

slam dunk cosplay - rukawa kaedeAttractive, skilled, but often considered to be cold, Rukawa Kaede is the Super-Rookie of Shohoku High School’s Basketball Team. Even though he is only a first-year high school player, he has the height, athleticism, and drive that makes him the undisputed ace of the team. He plays Small Forward, and when he’s not playing on the court, he is often seen sleeping; even when riding his bicycle.

I didn’t think anyone would have a cosplay photo from this series! It’s one of the classics that changed a lot of people’s perspective to Japanese animation. Thanks to Fumiki for sending this in!
