Hello World

Angel Beats : Sekine Shiori

The bassist of Girls Dead Monster, Sekine Shiori tends to abruptly improvise during performances, much to Hisako's chagrin. She likes playing pranks on people just to see the surprised looks on their faces. She plays a G&L L-2000 bass guitar.

Awesome cosplay by Rinami! The cosplayer actually looks familiar... I may need to look through my files to see if I missed tagging her photos on Cosplay Holic. Thanks to Warren for sending this!

Ore no Imoto ga Konna ni Kawaii Wake ga Nai: Goko Ruri aka Kuroneko 02

Unlike Kirino who enjoys little sister-themed games and magical girl anime, Kuroneko prefers teen-centered fantasy anime. She claims to have “dark magic” and has revealed this fact to only Kirino and Kyosuke. She is also known to have a large vocabulary, as Kirino commented that she needed a dictionary to translate her novel.

Another beautiful Kuroneko cosplay by Eki! I really love the dark brown colored fabric with the yellow apron on this version. Thanks to Regan for sending this!

LovePlus: Takane Manaka 02

Manaka is a very sheltered daughter of Doctor Takane, a physician known to possess advanced levels in both judo and kendo. She’s had a proper upbringing and excels both in her studies and tennis. Although she is a vision of perfection to most people, she lacks experience in what is considered to be common skills such as ordering and eating a hamburger combo, going out with friends, and watching TV.

Beautiful Manaka by Kipi! She looks absolutely stunning as the “unattainable goal” and I’d bet some of her fans consider her to be very similar to Manaka too! Thanks to Yuri for suggesting this!

Okane Ga Nai: Yukiya Ayase and Somuku Kanou

A gentle and very naive university student, Yukiya Ayase was betrayed by his cousin, Ishi Tetsuo, and was sold in an auction to settle Tetsuo’s debts. Fortunately (or unfortunately), Ayase was bought by Somuku Kanou, a stranger whom he had helped four years ago. Kanou, however, becomes very protective of Ayase, using the 120 million yen debt to force Ayase to live with him.

Quite an intriguing cosplay, but not a series for everyone, I suppose. Thanks to Cherokee for suggesting this!
