Various Nintama Rantarou Cosplay

2009-08-15T19:08:00.000-07:00

Rantarou, Shinbei and Kirimaru are ninja apprentices in the Ninja Gakuen, where first grade ones are called "Nintamas" (contraction of the words ninja+tama (egg)). They must learn everything a ninja must know, but as for our heroes, money, food or playing are more interesting. The series show the everyday adventures of our heroes, segmentated in a cartoon fashion, like 2 small episodes in a 30-min show. The cast also includes the teachers (Doi-sensei and crossdressing Yamada-sensei), nintama kunoichis, evil guys (Dokutake ninjas) and even family members of all the cast... funny, nice, with catchy music

Zhen Ji Cosplay

2009-05-29T00:41:00.000-07:00

Former wife of Yuan Xi, the son of Yuan Shao. During the sack of Ye Jun Cao Cao's son Cao Pi discovered Lady Zhen and fell in love with her at first sight. When Cao Pi became the first emperor of Wei, she became his empress. Years later when Zhen Ji expressed discontent over her husband's preference for his other wife, he ordered her to commit suicide. She was described as "a woman of exquisite loveliness, with a complexion clear as jade touched with the tender bloom of a flower petal, a woman indeed beautiful enough to ruin a kingdom".

There is a tale not in the Three Kingdoms novel that says Zhen Ji was in fact in love with Cao Pi's brother Cao Zhi. They met in secret after she married Cao Pi. After Lady Zhen died, Cao Zhi dreamed that he saw his love at the River Luo, and wrote a poem about it. Due to this poem, she has become identified with the Goddess of the River Luo.

Cool cosplay here! maybe the lack is no high resulution. Colourfull and shiny, I guess must be difficult making costume as such.

Complete Ada Wong Cosplay

2009-04-25T01:14:00.000-07:00

According Resident Evil Wikia, Ada Wong is a red-clad, cunning and formidable secret agent of Chinese heritage with a mysterious past. Initially a private agent, Ada was drawn into the intrigue and treachery that is the corporate world when she was recruited by The Agency to participate in their activities against their primary rival, the Umbrella Corporation.

Ada remained an operative of the organization, even as the battle shifted from the soon defunct Umbrella to the mysterious "S" Corporation, with Ada posing as a double-agent inside the corporation on the Agency's behalf, pretending to work with Albert Wesker and monitor his activities to gain power. Though she was affiliated with unscrupulous and questionable characters and organizations, Ada was shown to have integrity and some measure of mercy and kindness, leaving her true affiliation unknown.

This is one of my favorit cosplay, taken from Angelic Star. Net (you'll see the credit). Since Ada is a Chinese America race, this cosplay really close with the real.

For Resident Evil game fans, will never forget the confict (or love?) between Ada and Leon. Too bad for this Leon cosplay, not match with Ada. I guess Leon is better using his Resident Evil 4 outfit than this one.

Gothic Lolita

2009-02-11T19:59:00.000-08:00

Gothic Lolita or "GothLoli", gosurori; sometimes alternatively "Loli-Goth" is a youth fashion among Japanese teenagers and young women. It emphasizes Victorian-style girl's clothing and often aims to imitate the look of Victorian porcelain dolls. Gothloli's name and origin is a combination of lolita fashion—appearing deliberately cute to the point of looking childish—and certain styles found within gothic fashion. The style started as a youth subculture sometime around 1997-98 and became a well-established genre available in various boutiques and some major department stores by around 2001. Some observers consider it a reaction to the "Kogal" aesthetic.

Gothic Lolita was influenced and popularised by the imagery of more feminine Visual Kei (or "visual rock") bands. Visual Kei is a Japanese form of rock music defined by bands featuring performers in elaborate costumes but whose musical style varies. Mana, the cross dressing former leader and guitarist of the Visual Kei band Malice Mizer is widely credited for having helped popularise Gothic Lolita. He coined the terms "Elegant Gothic Lolita" (EGL) and "Elegant Gothic Aristocrat" (EGA) to describe the style of his own fashion label Moi-même-Moitié, which was founded in 1999 and quickly established itself as one of the most coveted brands of the Gothic Lolita scene.

The "Rozen Maidens" are a collection of dolls created by a craftsman named Rozen, whom the dolls refer to as "Father". Their primary source of power is a human host (referred to as a "medium") who wears a ring to symbolize his bond with the doll, although certain dolls have been shown to act without a medium. According to Shinku, she can only be at full power when her medium is present. Each Rozen Maiden has her own distinct personality, guardian spirit

Aion is a story about the bitter clash between the Angelic realm and the Demonic realm’ and the infinite battle with the Draconic race that is threatening all of these.

In the beginning of the world, ‘Atreia’ was a single world formed around ‘the Tower of Eternity’. As the first creation of ‘Atreia’, the ‘Draconic’ race becomes arrogant with more strengthened power. They stand against the Creator and turn into a threat against ‘Atreia’ itself. Hence, the Creator sent twelve Gods to the world to face the Draconic race and protect the root of the world, ‘the Tower of Eternity’. However, the world becomes devastated after a lengthy war without either side showing dominance.

As the sudden cataclysm destroys AION-the Tower of Eternity, the Draconic race is forced out of Simabandha and ‘Atreia’ is divided into two worlds that are unable to understand each other again. The divided two worlds become ‘the Angelic realm’ and ‘the Demonic realm’ and they are each under a bitter struggle to destroy the other side’s remaining tower for its own ideal protection and survival. In this endless battle, the existence of the Draconic race constantly threatens the existence of the two races and provides a cause to prolong the endless struggle of the Angelic race, Demonic race and the Draconic race.

In addition, the destruction of ‘the Tower of Eternity’ destabilized the energy flow of the world and a realm called the ‘Abyss’ was created. The Abyss is a mystery passage between the two worlds created after the great cataclysm. When the Abyss opens up, the Angelic and Demonic realm’s accumulated hatred for each other is amplified and the reemergence of the Draconic race foretells yet another big war. Also, secrets hidden from the Angelic race and Demonic race that may allow them to control the Abyss start to be revealed one by one.

Now, players who are born as human in the Angelic and Demonic realm can prove that they are the chosen ones to become a Daeva. They fulfill their mission as both protector and advocate for the higher Gods that they revere, and protect ordinary citizens who respect them. In the end, the goal is to become the greatest God and to save the world by defeating the other side, who threatens the eternal existence of the world they belong to.

Soul Ultimate Nation

2009-02-07T20:44:00.000-08:00

Gamespot reviews: Soul Ultimate Nation (SUN) has the kind of convoluted storyline featured in console games. The game is set on the continent of Blandis. The Geist emperor Schwarz possesses the secret knowledge of the essence of nature, which is known as ether. Schwarz converts the ether into dark energy and conquers the continent. Meanwhile, the continued extraction of ether impoverishes the land. As a result, an insurrection begins, and the rebel leader Ignis forms an elite force called the Guidance, which then wages war against the empire.

The combat system in SUN will allow for player-versus-faction and faction-versus-faction battles. You can have up to 40 characters battling it out on a combat map that's divided into multiple fields. The outcome of each battle in a field will affect the combat in adjacent fields. There aren't many more details about SUN available, but that should change in the coming months. SUN is scheduled to launch in early 2006.

This generally positive outlook is put to the test from the beginning of the series, which opens on a magazine article featuring Iori in a swimsuit spread.

RF - Online

2008-12-07T18:46:00.000-08:00

Gamespot reviews: RF Online is a sci-fi themed massively multiplayer role-playing game that you can play for the price of $50 for the game and $15 a month. It takes place in the galaxy of Novus, where a perpetual war wages between three playable factions: the industrious Bellatos, the mystical Corites, and the mechanical Accretians. The three factions fight for control of the Crag mine core, which produces rich ores that provide economic sustenance. The problem is that there's an epic beast, known as the Holystone Keeper, guarding the mine core at all times. The Holystone Keeper can't be killed, and he will instantly destroy anyone who approaches the mine core. Luckily, the monster can be temporarily fooled into befriending one particular race, depending on the outcome of the most recent chip war.

Chip wars happen three times a day, every eight hours. A chip war is a free-for-all, player-versus-player conflict where control of the mine core is temporarily up for grabs. Each faction has a chip control tower, and the first faction to destroy one of its enemies' towers wins the war and gains the good graces of the Holystone Keeper, effectively gaining a monopoly on mining the core for a period of time. How long that monopoly lasts depends on the health of the victorious faction's own control tower at the end of the war. However, the last person to hit the destroyed control tower can attempt to run the chip back to the mine core. If successful, his or her faction will get a full seven hours to mine under the protection of the Keeper. It sounds like a lot of work just for the sake of digging some ore out of the ground, especially since you don't actually need control of the core in order to mine. But the huge mining bonus you get for controlling the core, plus the morale boost you get from a victory, makes it worth your while to enlist.

Large scale player-versus-player warfare is an appealing concept, and while the frenzied chaos of the battles can be exciting if you're well equipped, you aren't required to participate. In fact, you have to be at least level 25 before you can even damage a control tower, which makes these daily battles somewhat exclusive. You can participate in a player-versus-player battle at any level, but unless you're around level 30 or higher, you won't stand much of a chance. Even high-level characters can expect to die often in chip wars. Luckily, the only penalty for dying at the hands of another player is respawning at one of your faction's bases and having to run back to the battlefield. If you kill an enemy, you earn contribution points, which are used to determine your rank among all the players in your faction, and the highest ranking players for each faction get special leadership privileges.

This race warfare isn't limited to chip wars, either. You'll often run into members of opposing factions in the course of completing quests. You can kill other players as you see them or even go hunting for them if you're looking to earn more contribution points. There are certain areas in the game that are more heavily contested than others, so it's usually fairly easy to avoid getting trounced by other players if you want to. It does seem unbalanced that there's no apparent penalty for simply picking off low-level players, and you'll often see people thrashing players who are away from their computers.

Now here's some cosplay from many classes.

2008-12-07T18:30:00.000-08:00

Atlantica Online is a Massive Multiplayer Online RPG (MMORPG) from the Korean developer Ndoors who also have a North American studio called Ndoors Interactive. Atlantica Online unlike most, if not all, massively multi player online role playing games takes a different route by using the turn-based battle system much like the Final Fantasy series. A lot of Korean MMO's have come over to the states, but none have really caught on as much as the developers would like. It's possible that Atlantica Online could break this mold with its ability to offer something different than World of Warcraft and its clones.

Haruhi Suzumiya - Uniform Cosplay

2008-12-07T18:08:00.000-08:00

Haruhi Suzumiya, a first year student at North High School (in novels 1-8), and second year (in the 9th and latest novel), can be characterized as funny, eccentric, and somewhat unpredictable. In the series, she is introduced declaring her interests in aliens, espers and time travelers and does not care for 'ordinary' human beings. The last thing on her mind is a normal high school life.

With a burning desire to find such phenomena in the world, she is generally unapproachable and finds ordinary people boring and uninteresting. As a result of this, many of her classmates choose to avoid and confront her. She deals with her emotions by creating a parallel universe (called 'Closed Spaces'), where she inadvertently releases transparent creatures (Titans) who tear up and destroy everything that comes into contact with them.

Espers are the ones who can stop these creatures by cutting and destroying them, because if these creatures are left alone destroying everything as well as the outer barrier it could affect the outside world. She also likes to dress up Mikuru in random outfits.

The setting for Strawberry Panic! is Astraea Hill, a very large hilltop where the three affiliated schools of Miator, Spica and Lulim, are located. Each school has its own student council, which governs the matters of each respective school. Periodically the three student councils, along with the Etoiles, meet in the Astraea Joint Student Council. The Astraea Hill school system employs the Scottish system of grade numbering. Students are ranged from grades one through six, the equivalent of the three years of junior-high and high school in Japan, and seventh through twelfth grade in North America.

The hill is known as a sacred area which no men are allowed to enter. A prominent feature is a very large Catholic church in the center of the hill near a small lake; the church can be seen from a long distance away. There is a horse ranch at Spica. The students may go and study for their classes at a library on the lake's shore. Although only implied in the anime, the manga explains that the library building has another name, "The Secret Garden". It is well-known on campus as a rendezvous for secret lovers

Shinguji Sakura

Sakura Taisen is set in a fictional Taisho period. Although the alternate timeline's history is similar to that of the real world, a crucial difference lies in technology, where most of the benefits of today's modern era are made possible in the early 1900's with the effective utilization of steam. In particular, the Imperial Capital Tokyo, also known as the Teito (the capital), stood at the forefront of that period's technological revolution. This was thanks in part to the company called Kanzaki Heavy Industries, who were considered world-leaders in steam-powered machinery.

On Taisho 7 (1918), an event known as "The Kouma War" took place, where a huge demon appeared at Nihonbashi in Tokyo. It was eventually sealed away by the Imperial Army's Counter-Demon Team, but their success came at a huge cost. Due to this incident, an internationally approved effort was made to secure Tokyo from future spiritual threats, thus the formation of the Imperial Capital Defense Program and the Imperial Assault Force.

To increase the defenses of those who would be enlisted by the new organization to fight against demons, part of the preparations involved the development of a dual-powered steam/spirit armor by Kanzaki Heavy Industries. While experiments were being made on a prototype called "Oobu", only a young girl bearing high levels of spiritual power was shown to have been capable of moving it, giving birth to the misconception that only women could operate the armor.

The center of the top secret corps was hidden underneath a theater in the heart of Ginza called the Grand Imperial Theater (Dai Teikoku Gekijo). Here, the women of the Imperial Assault Force — Flower Division lived and worked undercover as actors performing theatrical plays under the alias "Imperial Opera Troupe". The reasoning behind this was both spiritual and mental: song and dance were considered to be traditional methods that could suppress evil, and the stage was likened to a battlefield where self-confidence is built.

When the Imperial Assault Force went into service and had proven to be an effective means of defending Tokyo, other countries soon followed. It began with the creation of the Paris Assault Force, with its base of operations located at a famous Parisian night club known as Les Chattes Noires. The New York Fighting Troupe was established at the Little Lip Theater on Broadway shortly afterwards.

The series depicts the trials and tribulations of these different attack squads as the members grow into their roles and strive to protect their respective cities, while dealing with personal issues at the same time.

Now, here the real Sakura Shinguji, cosplay performed by Arisa Mizuhara.
