Shaman King: Tao Ren

A Chinese shaman who was initially one of Asakura Yo’s most powerful adversaries, Tao Ren is highly confident in his own strength and does not directly accept help from others. His pride, along with his short-temper and impatience often limit his ability as a Shaman. However, after meeting Yo, his strong sense of pride moves towards his ability to protect his friends, and he becomes Yo’s rival in becoming the Shaman King.

I miss watching this anime, and it’s great to see someone cosplay this adorable character. Thanks to Wendy for sending this!

Bleach: Hitsugaya Toushirou

As a child, Hitsugaya Toushirou lived a carefree childhood in Junrinan, District 1 of western Rukongai. His mother passed away shortly after giving birth to him, and he was thus raised by his grandmother. His icy demeanor isolated him from others except Hinamori Momo, whom he considers a very close friend.

You might notice this is not only a crop from the original, but I also cleaned out the wires from the sky backdrop. I know a bit of photoshop, and since Goku Lover 3 mentioned in her comments how much she wanted those lines to disappear, I figured, why not?

I hope you like my quick clean-up, Goku Lover 3! Thanks again for letting me feature this!

Hakuoki ~Shinsengumi Kitan~: Saito Hajime

The leader of the Third Division of the Shinsengumi, Saito Hajime is a master of Iai, a martial arts technique where one strikes and finishes off their opponent in one smooth motion from the starting point of the sword inside its sheath. He is silent and taciturn but is also very loyal, polite, and wise. He is also very analytical, often studying the situation before attacking to calculate which actions are necessary to complete the mission.

I’ve recently purchased a copy of Hakuoki: Demon of the Fleeting Blossom. I must admit, I never thought I’d feel so depressed just from playing a game. Heavy, accurate, and well-written story lines so far, but I just wish I could stop feeling so down about it. Thanks to Misaki-chan for sharing Jin Joson’s cosplay of my favorite character!

Ratatouille: Alfred Linguini and Remy

All Remy ever wanted was to become a chef, just like his idol, Chef Auguste Gusteau. However, there was one tiny problem: he was a rat. Little did he know that getting separated from his clan was the first step in making his dreams come true.

I’m sorry, but Rotzloeffel and her pet Chowder are too adorable to not share. First found on Rotzloeffel’s Tumblr!

Trinity Blood: Esther Blanchett

The legitimate granddaughter of the Queen of Albion, Esther Blanchett was brought to Istvan shortly after her birth in order to keep her hidden from those who wish to assassinate her. Her father, Prince Gilbert, was unfortunately killed a little after she was born. Edward White took her to an orphanage in Istvan where she was raised to be a nun by Bishop Laura Vitez, who loved Esther like her own daughter.

A very detailed cosplay by cosplayer Kaikida, who made this costume with MrGnob! Certainly well-deserving of their Daily Deviation award! Thanks again to Niena for sending this in!

Final Fantasy X-2: Yuna 11

Designer Nomura Tetsuya’s initial basis for Yuna’s overall look was her hakama, but when he learned that the character was to perform a dance called the “sending”, he wanted to give her outfit something that would flow. This was his reason for using a furisode, a kimono bearing long sleeves.

FFX-2, however, showed a more carefree Yuna, and thus they changed her clothing along with Rikku’s and Paine’s to make them seem more active. In addition, Yuna’s singing performance was used to demonstrate the pop feel that X-2 incorporates.

Moena Riu makes a beautiful Yuna, and she has a green and a blue colored contact lens too! Thank you so much for sharing this with us! And we look forward to more of your cosplays soon!

Nurarihyon no Mago: Yuki Onna 02

Cheerful and highly dedicated, Tsurara can be quite overprotective of Nura Rikuo especially when he is in his “day” form. She works hard trying not to be a burden to him and has stated that she will protect him for all of eternity. This is because Rikuo was the one with whom she exchanged sakazuki with.

Beautiful cosplay by Shuichicos! I’m sorry, I don’t know much about this series, but she’s a very cute cosplayer nonetheless! Thanks again to Ahupito for sending this in!

Bioshock: Little Sister 02

“Mr. Bubbles, Mr. Bubbles, are you there? Are you there? Come and give me lollies, come and bring me toffees. Teddy bears... teddy bears.”

So sings a Little Sister to the tune of “Frere Jacques” while harvesting ADAM at the Footlight Theatre. This character gives me the chills, but I feel like this little girl is either a really good actress, or she’s not very happy with how she’s dressed. Aww… Thank again to Cherokee for sending this in!
