@Lyre Moore: I know you! I see you ALL the time. :3


You do? Have I seen you at ConnectiCon or Anime Boston (2009) before? I don't remember!!?! T__T

I feel like I know you, though. xD Where have you seen me, specifically? I'm so curious now, haha~!


I saw you at CTcon 09, AB 09, and CTcon 08. You might have. I was working in the artist alley at CTcon this year with salsa and two other people. We were ILU4Ever. We had cyber falls, kandi, and a pink vinyl tablecloth. x3 I had orange falls the first day, and green/black ones the second. At CTcon 08, I was Medusa from soul eater for two days, and one of the thousand Misa-Misa's the first day.

I used to have a cosplay.com account, but everyone was really elitist there and barely anyone answered my questions when I asked, so I left. :/

I've only ever been in 2 full cosplays, but I've worn lolita dresses various times...

Anywho, my first costume was Captain Retsu Unohana (Bleach)... VERY hot! Not as in attractive, as in STIFLING!! I wore it to Tekkoshocon 2006, '07, and '08 and Katsucon '07... Got some pretty interesting stories as a result. I'll list them:
~Had this HUGE guy at Katsu freak out- For 2 minutes, all I heard was, "OMG UNOHANA UNOHANA UNOHANA! YOU'RE MY FAVORITE CHARACTER! YOU'RE MY FAVORITE CHARACTER!" (and so on and so forth) and then he asked for a hug... Quite a shock, since back then I was all, "DON'T TOUCH ME! crying " but I gave him one anyway sweatdrop
~Got a Hanataro to "die" for me so I could "heal" him biggrin
~Saw a Zaraki (I don't remember if he recognized me or not...) who had the number "13" on the back of his coat instead of "11" and insisted I was wrong when I tried to tell him sweatdrop
~Got a comment from a random stranger: "Oh, thank you!" "Uh... Excuse me?" "Oh, I just always wondered how that hair went!"
~Almost got glomped by a stranger. He glomped 3 friends, then went for me ("I'm gonna hug YOU, and I'm gonna hug YOU, and I'm gonna hug YOU, and I'm gonna hug A RANDOM STRANGER!!") and then when I quickly walked away after shouting, "DON'T TOUCH ME!! crying ", he yelled back, "All I wanted to do was touch your beard!!" crying (It's not a beard!)

And then I have my Jakotsu (Inuyasha) costume (worn to Katsucon '07). I only wore it once, and only got recognized twice (There were no Inuyashas to stalk!! crying ) Worst story ever: I made the kimono out of a heavier polyester fabric. From all the weight, I couldn't even wear it properly because the fabric kept pulling itself out of the obi/belt/tie/whatever you want to call it. And my arms were sore for DAYS after wearing it! I swear, it had to have weighed 10-20lbs!! (I actually want to weigh it when I get home...)

Things I've made for others:
~Vincent Valentine Cloak (I even put the buckles on the closure straps, and made all the snaps able to separate biggrin )
~Shihakusho (generic Bleach uniform)
~Custom lolita dress
~Custom-design shirt

Things I'm currently making/preparing to make:
~Mew (Pokemon) Hoodie
~Yoruichi (Bleach) past arc Costume
~Mello (Death Note) Costume
~Naraku (Inuyasha) Costume (for myself)
~Asuka (Tekken 5) kimono outfit Costume (for myself)
~Haruki Emishi (GetBackers) Costume (for myself)
~Lady Carmen (Recast) Costume (for myself)
~Lain (Recast) Costume (for myself)
and so on and so forth... If I put down everything I wanted to make this post would take up two pages! sweatdrop

I've attended three anime conventions. My first year, I borrowed a Kikyo costume from somebody I used to be friends with. [It was the only available costume she had.] The second year I went as Chii from Chobits, and last month I went as Yuna from Final Fantasy X. My boyfriend always goes as a fully-costumed Mudkip, so I am planning to go as a pink one in 2010. I'm really excited. blaugh

~We Never Really Ended;

My Dad was cosplaying as the only Shinigami-Sama from Soul Eater at Fanime '09. I was Death The Kid. FFFFFF Pics every 5 seconds, it was a pain after a while when we could hardly get two feet at some time without hearing, "Stop! Pic!" Oh god. It was cool to get so many but it took forever. lol

Anyway I've been:
TenTen from Naruto
Toon Link from LOZ
Light from Death Note
Death the Kid From Soul Eater
((I repeat cosplays for smaller cons))

Ah... Cosplay history..... This is going to take awhile....

My first cosplay ever was before I even knew what anime was. It was Halloween 1998, and my mom wouldn't make me a Sailor Moon costume due to we were going to move the day after Halloween. So I decided that if I couldn't be Sailor Moon, I would be Luna. We got a black outfit, makeup, and cat ears and tail. I had a crescent moon paint on my forehead so I could be Luna! Man, I was a cosplayer in the making even when I was younger!

Years later, after I was introduce to the world of anime, I found out the wonder of cosplay. This one comic store had a cosplay contest that I wanted to enter. My friend and I were planning to do a group cosplay, but she never followed through. So, I ended up doing Ryoko from the Tenchi series alone. I didn't win.

The following year, I was really obsessed with Yu-Gi-Oh. In particular, Kaiba Seto. To be nice to my mom, I decided to do the Duelist Kingdom outfit. Didn't win the contest again.

Year after, AniZona started. My friends and I found out they had voice actors from FMA. We decided to do FMA cosplays. One of them did Ed and another did Riza. I did Roy. That outfit rocked. Someone actually asked if I bought it when my mom and I made it in 3 weeks!

AniZona 2 came and I wanted to do something few people would think about. I went back to my Yu-Gi-Oh fandom and did Jonouchi Katsuya. Specifically, I did his dog suit that was in three episodes. I actually won second place in a cosplay contest (around Halloween one year).

AniZona 3 was when I had the courage to do one of my cosplay goals. I did Halloween Town Sora. It was so cool! My mask was made out of a paper plate and my dad made me a 1-to-1 scale Keyblade to my height based off the Chain of Memories (GBA) picture I gave him.

There was a long break from conventions and cosplays due to school. But, I finally decided to do a costume for this Renaissance Festival that happens every year here. I did a Link costume. Basically, all I had to make was the tunic, hat, and belts. I latter made leggings that looked like boots to finish the outfit.

Recently, I did KH2:FM+ Halloween Town Sora on the Christmas side. That took awhile since a lot was going on. In the end, it wasn't as good as some of my previous costumes, but I still love it!

Right now, I'm doing a Lolita outfit that can be interchangeable with dragon accessories for a Red Eyes Black Dragon. I'm also gathering stuff for a Fubuki Tenjoin (GX) cosplay. Nya~!

Storys:
I was Meowth for AMA '09. Goodness did I have fun with that.
Every time I entered a room someone would throw a poke ball at me and would say, "I caught you!!" or something. Then of course people had to start singing the theme and the little Team Rocket saying.

Oh dang. I remember at Nekocon '08 I cosplayed Momiji.
Got tackled to the ground....

Then just a couple of weeks ago at Nekocon '09 my friends and I entered the masquerade in TWEWY cosplays. We won best craftsmanship in Novice and best over all performance. :'D

Also at Nekocon '09. It didn't exactly happen to me but it was the funniest thing ever.
So my friends and I cosplayed from Soul Eater on Friday. We were all just hanging out by a wall playing our DS's and such. All of the sudden my Death the Kid (who is a girl) says "I have Transformers boxers on! Wanna see?". even though she had already shown us them in Pizza Hut just a few hours ago she proceeded to take off her pants to show us. Then these guys who were next to us just started to freak out. One of them shouted "DUDE!! What are you doing!?!?" . SO naturally my friend was like "What? They're just boxers." I swear that guys jaw dropped shouting "DUDE!!! IT'S A CHICK!!!"

Lol. The joys of Cross-playing

Dang this post is long. D":
