Darkstalkers: Lilith Aensland 02

Lilith Aensland was released and given a body by the demon Jedah in the third installment of Darkstalkers. In exchange for her freedom, Lilith must lure Morrigan and the other Darkstalkers to him. Lilith enjoyed her life until she realized she was only part of another person, which is Morrigan Aensland. Lilith knows she has limited time finding her “soul mate” but even though Morrigan feels Lilith to be a part of her, Morrigan does not need Lilith as badly as Lilith needs her.

Very beautiful cosplay of Lilith! I wasn’t aware there was a blue version, but I like this because she has almost the same colored hair as Morrigan does. Thanks to Lamento for sending this in!

Digimon: Angewomon 02

Gatomon’s natural Ultimate Form, Angewomon first appeared at the sacrifice of Wizardmon during the final battle against Myotismon. She is rivals with LadyDevimon though their rivalry is more of a personal, feminine level. Like Angemon, Angewomon is considerably more powerful than other ultimate level digimon.

Beautiful Angewomon cosplay! And I’m guessing fans will not mind that she’s not wearing her valkyrie helmet. Thanks to Jocelyn for sending this in!

Final Fight: Poison

Poison first appeared in the side-scrolling action game known as Final Fight. The character was originally planned to be female, but was changed to a male transvestite due to the suggestion that hitting women were considered rude in America during the game’s release. When asked about the matter, Street Fighter IV’s producer Ono Yoshinori stated:

“Let's set the record straight: In North America, Poison is officially a post-op transsexual. But in Japan, she simply tucks her business away to look female.”

Interesting information on this character that I’ve never even heard of. Hope that doesn’t scare her fans away… Thanks to Michelle for sharing this!

EDIT: Thanks to fang_shinobi for letting me know the cosplayer is ~H-a-Z-y from Deviant Art! Please view the original work here.

Durarara!!: Celty Sturluson

A Dullahan from Ireland, Celty Sturluson is a supernatural being who came to Japan in search for her stolen head. She has no heart and is able to perceive and function via unknown censors that are not located on the head. Celty is able to manipulate a shadow-like substance to form objects ranging from gloves to chariots at will.

Despite her strength and power, Celty does fear one thing: that if her stolen head is destroyed, she may also cease to exist.

I was quite stunned to see this in Mezurashi and knew that I would have to feature this ASAP. I wonder Valefor Ho is the photographer? In any case, thanks for sharing this!

EDIT: Thanks to anon for linking photographer Valefor's Deviant Art.

EDIT2: Thanks to Valefor for revealing the cosplayer to be *sakana of Deviant Art!

Granado Espada: The Elementalist

An extremely powerful character in the MMORPG Sword of the New World: Granado Espada, the elementalists use fire, ice, and thunder as their offensive magic of choice. They have the ability to slaughter multiple opponents with one shot, but tend to move slowly due to their massive power.

Very beautifully cosplayed Elementalist! I only wish we had more info on the cosplayer as well as the character. Thanks to Okami for sending this in!

Dolls: Mikoshiba Shouta and Aikawa Rami

Mikoshiba Shouta is the Captain of the First Brigade while Aikawa Rami is the Captain of the Second Brigade. Shouta is considered a legend, because after he graduated at the top of his class, he was assigned to the First Division and held that position for a record of 5 years, the longest in history. Rami, on the other hand, is a feminist and fights to be acknowledged, not just because of her gender, but also the skills she possesses that allowed her to become captain.

Awesome cosplay by *ImMuze (Muze) and Sephy! I really love their trench coats and the weapon details. Great photography work from Tony Quan!
