TEASER: Super Sonico Cosplay Shoot

Hey guys!

So last Mindanao Cosplay Summit, some peeps were asking me for coscards and sadly, I forgot to bring them that day. (I wasn't cosplaying that day tho)

I did find my stash of cards later on but I realized that I haven't printed new ones last year and I've been giving out outdated cards with my inactive e-mail on it! ACK!

So I resorted on asking my friends to shoot one of my new costumes for a fresh batch of cards and they gladly participated even on the short notice.

I was planning on wearing Mari's seifuku of Prison School but unfortunately the zipper on the skirt broke in the last minute. Phew.

So I chose to wear Super Sonico since I haven't had any decent photos of this cosplay ever since I had it made.

KAH! Sentimental Sonico >_<

Anyway, after quickly skimming the set of photos we got that day, I now have a rough draft on what my next coscard will look like:

I am also thinking of printing a few of these photos in 3R or 4R sizes. Maybe it's a good way to promote my blog to more potential readers. Hopefully I can keep up in writing and updating my site every once in a while~

With my friends' help, I got new cosplay photos good for coscards and maybe cosplay prints.

Thank you so so much Gail and Sheed for doing this with me!

Watch out for the whole set of my Super Sonico cosplay and samplers of the coscards I want to print and trade this year - I already made 4 different designs. Hoping to find a decent print shop to produce these~

Thank you so much for staying with me! Til the next post~

And this is it! I was once again part of the judging group for the WMSU College of Nursing Nihon Fure Ai Kai (A Touch of Japan Club) Cosplay Competition last Sept 9, 2015 during the WMSU Palaro!

Nihon Fure Ai Kai is a school-based Japanese club that sponsors Japanese language classes to interested nursing students who want to practice their career in Japan. To promote the club they host Japanese culture events like the maid cafe and the popular cosplay event.

I am an alumna of this club and this is my second time judging the event. I went as Esdeath with my fellow alumna Shermina as Mine from Akame Ga Kill. We've been spazzing all about this anime that we synced our costumes that day. :D

Ignore the bag. LOL

It was fun to see the blooming cosplay community in my alma mater. When I was a student here, cosplaying is still unpopular and we got these all kinds of looks from people whenever we parade in costumes. I am glad that more and more people got interested in the hobby. The number of contestants and spectators are a proof of this!

Meet the rest of the judges:

Me and my derpy face. kekeke

After everybody has performed their skits (twas awesome, I don't think I can do those moves), one emerged as champion.

She cosplayed Korra from Avatar Legend of Korra. Congratulations on winning the second NFAK #CosCom2015!

Winners of the #CosCom2015
Korra - Legend of Korra, Cleric of Dragon Nest and Yuno Gasai of Mirai Nikki

I saw some new faces among the contestants. I got to meet some new peeps and make new cosplay friends!

Thank you so so much WMSU for the warm reception and your enthusiasm on cosplay.
See you soon!

PS:

I gotta practice being more in-character than smiling on every photo op. Can't stop feeling happy when I see familiar faces. Teehee!
