Euphemia li Britannia


Lelouch Lamperouge's half-sister and the Third Princess of the Holy Britannia Empire, Euphemia li Britannia is a kindhearted and open-minded woman who despises conflict of any form. She joins her older sister, Conelia, in governing Area 11, thus becoming the Sub-Viceroy. She develops a relationship with Kururugi Suzaku as they share the same views, and eventually appoints him as her personal knight.

Angel Beats


Despite being hyperactive and sometimes childish, Yui can also be “jokingly” rude to her colleagues, and even throw trash talk to Hinata and the others. Her upbeat personality may have stemmed from her being paralyzed from the neck down due to a car accident when she was still alive. Although it is unknown how she died, it can be assumed that her body somehow broke down in some way.

Final Fantasy VII Vincent Valentine


Thirty years before the beginning of Final Fantasy VII, Vincent was a member of the Shin-Ra Electric Power Company's Administrative Research Division; a fancy title for the company’s Black Ops unit more commonly known as the Turks. At the age of 27, he was assigned to supervise the Jenova Project in a town called Nibelheim, and fell in love with one of the supporting scientists, Lucrecia Crescent. Despite their love for each other, Lucrecia harbored a secret past related to the death of Vincent’s father and therefore decided to break off the relationship, leaving Vincent for another scientist named Hojo.

Sailor Moon Sailor Jupiter


One of the most consistent characters in Sailor Moon, Sailor Jupiter is depicted as simultaneously the most masculine and most feminine of the younger Senshi. She is tall, strong, and practices martial arts and other sports, but she is also an excellent cook and house-cleaner. As Makoto, she also joined cooking and gardening clubs in her high school.

Cute cosplay by Arisa Mizuhara! It’s been a while since I’ve last featured her.

Uchiha Sasuke and Uchiha Itachi


Uchiha Itachi has a dispassionate appearance, rarely showing his emotions and even managing to keep his composure when surprised or irritated. However, he is consistently hostile towards his brother Sasuke, to the point of breaking Sasuke's wrist and ridiculing him for being weak on their first encounter after the destruction of the Uchiha village. Itachi’s mask proved to be nothing more than a facade, as he merely wished for Sasuke’s safety and used an evil persona to strengthen Sasuke’s resolution to kill him.

Would it not have been better if they got along and the war never occurred? I think they would have become fine ninjas together.

Tifa Lockhart 04


Tifa Lockhart’s character was developed to use the “Martial Artist” character class that appeared in previous games in the Final Fantasy series. Nomura Tetsuya described Tifa to have several dimensions, calling her “like a mother, a sweetheart, and a close ally in battle” and “remarkably strong, not only emotionally, but physically as well”.

Sebastian Michaelis 07


The Phantomhive butler who prides himself in his ability to handle every impossible task, Sebastian Michaelis has been known to use silverware as his weapon of choice in battle. He uses forks and knives as projectiles and is always able to make his mark, with the exception of death gods and fallen angels. Sebastian is also an extreme cat lover, to the point of ignoring Ciel’s words to comfort a stray cat.

Nnoitora Gilga


The Quinto Espada and representation of death’s aspect “despair”, Nnoitora Gilga was once the Octavo Espada when Neliel Tu Oderschvank was the Tercera. The large eye-patch covers most of the left side of his face as well as the remnants of his Hollow mask and his Hollow hole. He has the self-proclaimed strongest hierro of any Espada, enabling him to block attacks, even from blade wielding opponents, by skin alone.

That is so in character

Lambo


A cow suit-clad, 5-year-old assassin from Italy, Lambo is affiliated with the Bovino Familia. He has a huge afro with horns on his head in which he stores a variety of items in including snacks and weapons. Despite being a hitman, he lacks the emotional maturity and discipline that Reborn has and is also considered to be a conceited crybaby.

Kusanagi Motoko


Kusanagi Motoko is a Major with a commanding presence when on assignment. Among the members of Section 9, she is usually the one Chief Aramaki Daisuke asks to accompany him on official and off the record business. Kusanagi underwent cyberization when she was very young and had trouble adapting to the use of her body, resulting to inadvertently breaking one of her favorite dolls. She wears a wrist watch as proof of her past.

Hyuga Hinata




Inspired by Naruto's confidence and determination, Hinata's infatuation over him affects her training in a good way as she tries her best to win his attention by continually improving her skills and helping him out. While Hinata is hesitant to openly admit her feelings for him, almost everyone else knows about it. In Shippuden, she finally confesses her love to Naruto while protecting him from Pain, but there has been no follow up to her confession as of yet.

Fantastic cosplay by Brazilian cosplayer.

✩KiraWinter

Ryeain:
Besides fangirl-ing her *coughs*howl*coughs* cosplay, Kira is one of those who I've often update with basically because I love the way she framed up the cosplayers in her photos, very straight forward and direct.

✩KiraWinter✩



Ryea: What type of camera do you use in capturing those awesome photos?

Just Canon EOS450D. I'm only a beginner, so I don't think that I need a lot of equipment that I cant even fully use. So I just slowly learning the basics of photography and hope, someday I will be good enough to be called "pro".


Ryea: What inspires you to start photography?

My love for cosplay. I was cosplayer for many years, but each time when I was looking in photos I got feeling that something isn't right, that I see only costume on photo, but there are no special meaning, I don't feel anything looking on that. So I've decided to try bring that feeling to life through my own lens.


Ryea: What makes you to continue in photography with passion?

Its so naturally for me, that I even didn't think about that. How to say... Sometimes, of course when I am very depressed I got thoughts like "You need to stop that, you just can't do something nice", but than shiny days come, and I don't give a damn, ahaha.


Ryea: Which is your most satisfied/favorite shot so far?

Each time have something nice inside. Its like small epic stories. Most remarkable for me is Hetalia shoot, on the field covered with snow, but it's more about working in group, that about result. Now I am in love with night shoot that we made at Chengdu with Vocaloid-Durarara!!! crossover.


Ryea: Which photo you've taken is the most challenging to you?

I like to take photos in the dark. So, when I try to do that, each time it's a challenge. You need to do it in a place without any lights, you must made it nice-looking, and finally find your model in the dark room! Of course its not that simple...


Ryea: What aspect do you think that you have improved a lot since you started photography?

I don't know. My weak point is Technic. I dot many crazy ideas, but technically I am not that good, so I am trying to work on that part. I can tell that I become better, but still long way to go.


Ryea: What's your goal achievement in photography?

To be a pro. To tell the truth, my biggest dream is start taking fashion-photos, but I am far from that.


Ryea: Who do you look up to or inspires you?

Basically people who I met. I look on their faces and all I want is too capture that beauty. For me everyone is pretty. I think there are nothing more inspiring for portrait photographer, that people themselves.


Ryea: Any advise to those are new starter or interested in photography?

I think you need to practice more and more. As Chinese people says "Failure is mother of success". So, even if today you made something bad, you need to try tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow, and the next day... and you will succeed for sure. Just believe in that. I saw a lot of people who got a very expensive equipment but cant do nothing with that. Just a plain photos... I think your own style is much more expensive than any lens. You can buy things, but can't buy talent.


** Itismoi : What do you think sets apart cosplay photography from the other portrait photography?

Cosplay is much more about pretty faces, I think. Only beautiful cosplayers usually considered as good one, people says that they "looks like characters" but I can call that "in our dreams we see anime characters as pretty person". Personally I prefer more artistic photos, that can describe much more about character, not only his clothes and face.

Sexy Cosplay Of The Week: Sermemole


Here we are with another week, another Friday and we all know what that means here at the Nerdbastards HQ. It’s time for another (a)rousing edition of ‘Sexy Cosplay of the Week’, where nerds around the world get together and stare at the pretty woman on the screen. Every week thousands of yards in material gets purchased and turned into costumes most normal people would shield their children from. As for the rest us, we just call it another weekend of badges, panels and cosplay. So let’s all sit back, relax and enjoy this week’s cosplay beauty.

This week we speak the name of: Sermemole

This week we stretch our frequent flyer miles and touch down into the country of Italy to meet with Sermemole. A country Steep in history and beauty, fitting this Italian’s hotness to a tee. A graduate of the Art Institute of Monza, she has since become an advertising designer and sales accountant. Sermemole hates hypocrisy, unnecessary debates, evil, the lack of qualities, the ones who are always in bad mood. So if you are a person that doesn’t keep their word and is an overall scumbag you might as well not even try getting to know her. When she isn’t rocking a convention Sermemole continues to enjoy drawing and martial arts. A practitioner of Muai Tai kickboxing since she was 17, she has since been a part of Italy’s Kombat 2000 team. Brawn and beauty all rolled into one tight ass-kicking package.

Sermemole has been cosplaying since 2006, heavily favoring Jem of the eighties Jem and The Holograms and Nina Williams from Tekken. Averaging 5 costumes a year she has built up quite a resume of characters from all realms of anime, comic books and video games. Between all the fabric and hand sewn material this gift of Italy also does modeling, away from all the glitz and glamor of the cosplay scene. Very tight and intricate designs with hours of work just for one costume, Sermemole researches everything before she designs. Even reaching into hentai manga to get her final design, minus all the tentacles and splooge. While there hasn’t been anything updated along the lines of new costumes since the start of 2011 it’s still early, there could be something big on the way.

If you happen to be flying international anytime soon be sure to stop in Monza, Italy and check out an Italian convention featuring Sermemole. Can’t make it over to the Italian Republic anytime soon you can always check out Sermemole’s personal page and maybe sign her guest book. Even if you can’t understand the language you can always enjoy sexy. Told she’s always full of life and energy, it may be from too much Red bull but it’s highly contested. Always full of ides and proposals, all I can say is “I’m all yours”.

Once again we close the book’s on another of Nerdbastards’ ‘Sexy Cosplay of The Week’. So go outside and travel around town, then go and spend the rest of the weekend watching a marathon of Firefly and Buffy The Vampire Slayer. A winning combination any day of the week, for man and woman. Have a great week(end).

Naruto: Hatake Kakashi 02

naruto cosplay - hatake kakashi 02Hatake Kakashi is known as the Copy Ninja Kakashi due to his ability to mimic any jutsu. This ability was given to him by Uchiha Obito, allowing him to develop thousands of attacks.

So what if he uses Uzumaki Naruto's Sexy no Jutsu?

Without a doubt, Kakashi would make a very sexy female ninja. But I would rather not post something in Sanriotown that might lead to my being banned from the site. I know nothing is actually revealed in this cosplay, but Naruto fans know that Sexy no Jutsu makes the user... nearly, completely naked?
