Black Rock Shooter: Black Rock Shooter, Dead Master, and Black Gold Saw

black rock shooter cosplay - black rock shooter, dead master, and black gold saw

I thought the previous posts of Black Gold Saw, Black Rock Shooter and Dead Master looked similar. In a good way, because apparently, the three cosplayers were shooting in the same studio! Absolutely breath-taking work!

If only we knew who the cosplayers were. Thanks to Fillet’s Minion for sending this in!

EDIT: Thanks to Anon for letting me know Black Rock Shooter's cosplayer is Tasha from Cure!

TV Tokyo on the Internet is one of the Japanese-based global broadcasting, where you can view the latest news, movies, comedy, adventure shows, nature, cartoons, and even sports. Contents transmitted using the Japanese language practice. There may be a little content of English, but it depends on the sites that offer these services. Like any other specific country of origin, and this also tends to describe more about Japanese culture and their environment. Is a favorite for tourists from this service because they can easily access the Internet. Furthermore, they are now informed about climate change is important that happens day after day in this country.

It is well known for inventions in Japan fast and the big role played by technologies in the modernization of man. Thus, it is because of this leadership that the industry and the Japanese media are among the best in animation. And describe the use of advanced tools, film and animation software, the Japanese view the animated series is now high on the anime TV regular and even online. This is the trend in Japanese culture in Japanese animation that made the media and the media companies was very innovative. And presentations such as the killer, Saiyuki, Naruto anime and many other television online Japanese.

All this confirms that high status is a privilege and broadcast all over the world for millions of anime fans to enjoy. Other similar Japanese TV channels online for viewing include Fukuoka radio, Chukyo, CBC, Kansai, Metele, Home of Hiroshima and Ishikawa, but nothing comes close to the TV Tokyo Web standards.

Mononoke: Kusuriuri 02

mononoke cosplay - kusuriuri 02 the medicine sellerA wandering Medicine Seller, the Kusuriuri uses an enchanted sword to slay the “mononoke”, a type of ayakashi or unnatural spirits that linger in the human world. In order to successfully perform the exorcism, the Medicine Seller must find the Katachi (shape), Mokoto (truth), and the Kotowari (reasoning) of the mononoke. Once the sword is unsheathed, he transforms into a demon-like creature.

I’m guessing this is what the Medicine Seller looks like right before his transformation. Another impressive cosplay by Federkiel of Deviant Art! Thanks to *Des-Henkers-Braut, her photographer and Syaza for sending this in!

HeartCatch PreCure!: Cure Marine

unknown cosplay 58 - heartcatch precure! cosplay - cure marinePeople would think that after all these years of writing for this cosplay blog that I would know a lot about different characters from anime, manga and games.

Well, you’d be wrong, because I get surprises like this in my inbox quite often!

To be completely honest, the first character that came to mind when I saw this was Sailor Mercury from Sailor Moon… a stylized version of her anyway! But I’m pretty sure this is not the case.

You guys know the drill, comment and discuss who she could be in the comments, but I hope you guys can leave your name next time so that I can credit you properly if you guess right! So many anonymous comments… I wonder if it’s because they don’t want people to know that they’re reading Cosplay Holic? In any case, thanks to Paton Saint for sending this in!

EDIT: Thanks to St. Arcana among many others for letting me know this is Cure Marine from HeartCatch PreCure!

avatar aang

avatar aang

The character named Aang is always found to be hand in hand with a Bison, which is named as Appa. It also has certain super powers such that it can control air similar to Aang. Gyatso who is a monk does the father role of Aang. Aang has easier access to all air bending techniques, which poses the first sign that he would become the Air Bender. Even before the age of twelve Aang used to perform new techniques with air which no one could. Thus making him a special person. People were worried of the consequence of the war, which would take place. The signs of war had been always given by the Fire nation.

In the storyline comes the Avatar named Roku who had been murdered by the Fire nation. This character name Roku is the Avatar long before the period of Aang. The leaders of the Southern temple wanted to put Aang under serious training, which made him, go away from his father. This made Aang highly terrified that he decided to run away and not return till the situation changed. When Aang had made his idea of running away he was spotted by the fire nation. But Aang showed certain powers, which made him and Appa to be lost in an Iceberg where they were not seen for nearly a hundred years. In these hundred years many changes took place and the Fire nation took over most of the nation. The Water tribe included Katara and Sokka who were wandering constantly. Once when Katara had been practicing the water techniques she happened to free Aang from the Iceberg. The idea of Aang being an Air bender made them suspicious as the entire Air benders have been destroyed by the Fire nation. Thus goes the story, which describes how the three made their way through the problems and did their best to prevent the war.

ichigo kurosaki BLEACH

ichigo kurosaki

Ichigo Kurosaki is the main character of Bleach manga. He is a not so normal high school student. Why did I say not so normal? It's because Ichigo can see ghosts. Big deal, you say, but Ichigo is not just some spiritual psychic wannabe who can just see ghosts. He can talk to them whenever he wants to. And some ghosts occasionally follow him home to hang out with his family. By the way, most of his family can see ghosts. Except for his father, that is. His twin sisters Yuzu and Karin can also sense ghosts. But Karin is a bit more powerful than Yuzu. Yuzu can only sense spirits and ghosts, Karin on the other hand, can see faint outlines of the ghosts.

3D Animation TV







Let us walk down the memory lane, and when we were young children in schools. For most of us in a typical day getting up early in the morning, and go to school, and then return home to watch cartoons on TV. Most of our favorite characters are the famous Walt Disney: Tom and Jerry. The love-hate relationship between two characters for the treatment of our eyes. It has done wonders of animation in our lives.

Can be defined as animated as a quick review of a series of images of works of art, or any situation model to create the illusion of movement. This phenomenon, the persistence of vision causes the optical illusion of movement. You can create it and also shown in a number of ways.

But, how would you feel if your favorite celebrities will look more alive and real to you. Certainly, it would be a wonderful experience and amazing. 3D is a solution for this. Can television 3D animation to do miracles. 3D animation TV is not only a 3D animation of works of art, or any position of a sample that shows on television. Must be watched so many of us the Ice Age films, and characters alive not even seem to be moving sketches of figures in the paper. We can understand the web, and view the rock as if it were real. So, in other words we can say 3D animation and television to provide the depth of the characters like watching TV in the.

3D animation and television not only helps the viewers but also that it gives a lot of scope for different companies. TV ads in the major marketing tool used by different companies. I usually do not appear in many ads and movie theaters also you do not get to your goal all the spectators in the hall of cinema and theater. TV is still a great way of advertising.

So, what results can be stunning 3D animated television could give the companies? Advertisers can let their creative juices flowing and nothing will stand as a block in front of them, except of course in the budget and employers. Type of medium is a very important factor in any type of communication, can be animated 3D television and a great way to connect from your idea that you can buy your products, and sending social messages, etc.

In some cases, to send messages tension in the real actors are not always possible and some may not want to do this kind of story, as well as problems in working with real people who may have differences. With moving images is to solve this problem. Therefore, 3D animation television is not only a great tool for entertainment but also for companies or other professionals, and even the government.

Film Television and Animation Tax Credit Financing - Canadian Solutions







Financing solutions and models is still seeking after the television and animated films a Canadian film tax credit financing. In addition to other solutions, the working capital of Canadian products in this area are also available, and less generally known that the presence and ability to assist the production of Canadian content.

In early 2010, as it is now well known by most of the players in this industry, the Canadian government at the federal and the local 'super tax credit' grants and incentives. Prices and increase their expenditure appropriations by up to 50-10 per cent in most areas of the tax exemptions. In addition to this fund has been established even for the intellectual property, with the projected funding tens of millions of dollars.

Productions with Canadian content, which produces a strong and savvy managers in Canada, both to take advantage of these loans, and finance them as well on a temporary basis, or on completion.

A combination of private investment, and government non-payment of tax exemptions, and even some participation of Canadian banks create a 'tour de force' assistance funding for Canadian content. Despite the important factors in the growth of the former Canadian dollar was cheaper Canadian dollar, up to date on an equal footing and not to hinder production in Canada, all three main areas of film and television, and digital animation. (And let's not forget those less known sisters - the publication of books and music!)

Of production in Canada, to fund the course in the same way in almost any other place - by the shareholders, tax exemptions, loans, and distribution deals. Tax credit and other incentives in the tax havens actually replaced the film than previous days. In our view, this method is more transparent and available, and takes a lot of negativity associated with 'tax havens.

Such tax exemptions So how do managers of tax exemptions and how to access financing. Do you also know that the availability of funding on a temporary basis as well, and to produce a properly documented, you can get temporary assistance funding in many cases be the key to reach the component in front of private financing, and will allow you to complete your project more than a useful financial perspective?

What are the foundations of this type of financing - let's re-examination. To say that the film, television and animation is a boutique finance industry in Canada is of course an understatement. That's why we strongly recommend to work with and talk to a consultant with experience and knowledge in this area. Be supported to access funding must ensure that the project or projects are eligible for any one or more of the six major tax credits that are available, for example, in the province of Ontario. (We will use our example and Ontario, but each province and similar systems to help yourselves.) Must ensure that you create a single entity for special purposes, mainly for legal shell will be eligible for private production or project.

Carefully choose which credits you are eligible for, and to ensure proper application for a certificate as soon as possible. Improper or incomplete certificate only (as is the case in any action that the funding process) slows down and stalls your credit from taxes and the ability to finance them.

Maintain the proper expenditure, payroll records - and we strongly recommend to clients that they use an accountant or a company that specializes in this area. If you can prove the background and experience, and certification of appropriate process, and we are committed to the project document through the completion of the deposit of the proper tax returns and tax finance your credit can be funded immediately as when it is accepted and submitted to your project. If you are seeking interim financing for the same project, and we are committed to maintaining and demonstrating quality in key areas reported above you are eligible for funding on an accrual basis, or cash and working capital assistance immediately, even before approval on your project (Q ).

In sum, 'Hollywood North' seems to flourish again. The economy has picked up and consumers want entertainment in all major sectors, and even the Canadian dollar has not prevented investment in production. And increased tax exemptions, and better so that, by working with the right partner with experience your credits can be funded upon ratification, or earlier, even if you could go a powerful document to forward an action plan on payments, payroll, and your experience in This is a great area of the Canadian economy. By the way, talk to an expert in the field does not hurt - Tips and additional assistance may be worth thousands or hundreds of thousands of dollars in cash and working capital for your projects!

Gintama: Okita Sogo and Hijikata Toshiro

gintama cosplay - okita sogo and hijikata toshiroVice-commander of the Shinsengumi, Hijikata Toshiro has romantic feelings for Okita Sogo’s sister Mitsuba. Prior to joining the government, he rejected Mitsuba believing he will not be able to provide happiness for her. Sogo does not like Toshiro very much, and continually tries to wound, embarrass, or even kill Toshiro in order to take his rank as vice-commander. His annoyance towards Toshiro is mainly due to his popularity, as even the commander, Kondo Isao, thinks highly of his vice-commander.

Impressive cosplay! I wonder where Sogo was able to buy that gun? Or perhaps it was handmade? Thanks to Sensui for sending this in!

Hetalia: Axis Powers: Hong Kong

hetalia: axis powers cosplay - hong kongThere is very little known about Hong Kong, aside from being under the British's control for many years. No one can really tell what’s on his mind as he seldom shows emotion, if at all. He speaks in a mixture of Japanese and English.

Although I would like to applaud this cosplayer for the great work, this feature is also to pay tribute to Hong Kong. Several tourists who were on their way back home to Hong Kong were killed in a hostage situation in the Philippines just a few hours ago. No clear information has been released, but the incident was televised and watching it was very horrifying.

I am saddened by this, as I used to work in Hong Kong as well. May God bless the departed souls and the families who were left behind.

Durarara!!: Heiwajima Shizuo and Orihara Izaya

durarara!! cosplay - heiwajima shizuo and orihara izaya by kosikiryu and lindzar

Izaya and Shizuo have hated each other with a passion almost as soon as they first met one another. It was said in the novels that Izaya constantly framed Shizuo for crimes he didn’t commit. In the anime series, Izaya adds daily attacks from gangs aside from framing him. Although they are on bad terms, Shizuo is well-acquainted with Izaya’s twin sisters, Mairu and Kururi.

Deviant artists ~kozikiryu is Shizuo and =Lindzar is Izaya in this lovely photo. I could not un-see this when I first saw it in Lindzar’s gallery. Izaya really needs to stop pissing Shizuo off. Thanks to Lindzar for allowing me to feature her!

Animation in TV Commercials











The face of animation in TV commercials in the way the animated films made after. Right from the start of advertisers were quick to seize on the different possibilities that television commercial traffic had to offer them. For example: Kellogg started this trend in 1955, along with the mint Murray.

The packaging of Kellogg's had a hand drawing characters that are still not implemented so far. Kellogg took forward the same design for business as well. The animation and advertisers alike also keen to work with each other. The Association of Industries is synonymous with each other, and emerged a whole new industry with new technology coming in and creative ideas sprinkled through the television. This led to the emergence of various new opportunities in the field of animation as I got hold of the viewers more of what they saw on the screen of the theater. Started new experiments carried out with regard to films, and the clutter of the mobile ads have occurred and that led to the vast amount of competition.

Mobile advertising is not only a hit with children, but at the same time advertisers started to use animation in the ad for adults as well. In India, Pilsbury Atta Declaration is a very famous where pilsbury small boy would help make the lady in the roti and another ad that the anger and sunflower oil as a young boy was seen running Puri and freshly made jalebis. This came in spite of heresy in India in the very late but proved its effectiveness, and now we see the treasure of animated ads.

The relationship between the movement and the actual model of the world that is the movie means that it must be limited to the laws in the real world so that seems reasonable and true. But it is clear that these laws can be modified slightly in order to get the advertising message across. Can be actors or characters in advertising to walk and talk like ordinary people, but if it tends to look like it's actually there, and it happens a major achievement.

One of the best things about using animation in TV commercials is that which gives advertisers the ability to create a completely different world which is not possible in the business world using real life. You can let your imagination run wild and we have a situation that could possibly imagine happening, but it will not happen in reality. It helps in making access to the transfer of viewers in a whole new world that could possibly be, just imagine, this can help them to live for the moment. Children are especially large audience to the mobile ads are always in fear of huge things like this and get the animation business does not always guarantee the sale of the product, but in the interest of at least guarantees the viewer. The animation used to play in a toothpaste where a company tries to show the parent brand and the brand and competitive compared to the benefit of the brand against the other.

Machinima News - Animation Meets Journalism









With this large number of local stations and national media throughout the world, it is difficult to separate one from the other. Machinima was one of the ideas that some news stations have been playing around with it for a few years. It is mostly used to re-representation, but some used to display graphs and maps. If the news was serious or hilarious, the press and animation can bring different perspectives to life with a story. Regardless of whether they just do it for one part or broadcast in their entirety.

The Machinima news around for a few years, but has a strong presence in Japan and other parts of Asia. Re-representation is the main topic, but other networks take the other to provide the news on more interesting to watch. Elsewhere throughout the world and other digital artists create podcasts and blog posts for the same reasons. However, most of the news stations choose to use the footage live or recorded instead of animation. However, there is more variety when it comes to get the news on the animation on the Internet. Sports, entertainment and commentary, you can find one of the articles or on the Internet that cover the series of events taking place.


There are two types of news programs machinima: partial and full animation. Partial programming does not need to explain, but used only during certain occasions. Cartoon shows are often full by bloggers and animation professional and can be found on the web. They do not share a few things in common: Both are cheap to create and make the chip more interesting, and can be done by anyone with a computer or game console.

For those who wish to wish to play around and create a machinima show your news, you can use one of the editing software and create with the settings to download and reflect the design or purchase of software design. You can find these for around 100 dollars, but there are some programs on the Internet that you can use for free. If you want to do so through a game of your favorite video, you can find the recording software and cable link up to your TV or the output screen. Games using the first person more, but do not hesitate to play around with the other headings. And (Electronics and technology and culture) does not do this and is used for the Halo segments and interviews.

Negative only for machinima news is the truth that is generated for most foreign audiences and young people. Many people look at the news the same way that mobile robots: it is amusing, but not in the way you want to get information about current events. However, it costs less to create a marina and appears with the news reports and animation. It is still somewhat of a trend which gained new attention, but it would be awhile before the regular news channels take it seriously. Show Fox News' late night, red-eye, and uses animation to work outside of certain situations and read e-mails from viewers. And did everything and use software made by Xtranormal.com, but they did not show footage of the Japanese news about these moving parts.

You can find many of the news on the Internet machinima, but there are some news channels to do the same (foreign, mostly TV). It's certainly entertaining, but not a lot to get excited about on the news of cartoon characters in every night. It is also easy to create your own display if you so wish.

Black Rock Shooter: Black Rock Shooter and Dead Master

black rock shooter cosplay - black rock shooter and dead masterThe primary protagonist and antagonist of the OVA series, Black Rock Shooter and Dead Master were presumed to be sisters in the early stages of the animation project. As Black Rock Shooter prefers her Black Sword, Dead Master’s weapon of choice is a large scythe with an unusually shaped blade with vertebra like detail on its handle.

Dead Master shares similar characteristics with Takanashi Yomi, a first year middle school student and friend of Kuroi Mato, who also shares similarities with Black Rock Shooter.

Awesome cosplay! I love everything about this photo, although Dead Master’s horn and scythe are a little too smooth. Thanks again to Jessica for sending this in!
