One final post from our epic Japan trip to cover a few photos that didn't quite fit in anywhere else.

You guys are made of so much win.

SO MUCH. ♥ When I got to Japan in two summers I am so bringing my Joshua/Shiki costume. And my friend's bringing her Neku. And we will totally do what you did. (less epic, but you know.) Are you guys in Japan for a trip or are you residence? o_o

Also, that Caramell Dansen video made my day, really. <3 I was feeling down this morning and that got me all smiles in an instant~! <3 Thank you so much~

[rallamajoop]

Aww, thanks! :3

I am so bringing my Joshua/Shiki costume.

Costumes, I presume you mean. A Joshua/Shiki hybrid would be a scary thought. =P

Photos were all taken on a trip to Japan way back last year, no way did we find this many foreign cosplayers in residence in Tokyo at the same time. XD

Music that genki is infectious, isn't it? ;)

[hamano_ayumi]

Yes that.

I totally meant that.

/fail spelling

Oh JESUS BEAMS now the idea of a Joshua/Shiki hybrid is...aaaaaaaaaughakjfdkasjd. Joshua in Shiki's clothing. *DEAD*

Well, I love Caremell Dansen. <3 But I think it was the enthusiasm you guys had TO that music that I enjoyed tons. <333

[rallamajoop]

Joshua in Shiki's clothing. *DEAD*

Bahahaha, oh, he totally would wear it too! XDDDD I have been half-threatening to do a photoshoot in Goth-Loli and my Joshua wig ever since Japan. It may happen yet. ;)

But I think it was the enthusiasm you guys had TO that music that I enjoyed tons. <333

Despite our complete inability to keep in time with each other or figure out which way we were hip-swinging first. ;) It's actually pretty funny to watch the sequence of us in the WEWY costumes (first time was at TGS, second at the Scramble, third in front of the Mural) and see Sho get steadily crazier every time. (What you probably can't make out from the video is how close I got to losing it cracking up every time I glanced her way by the end.) XD;

Pretty cool that you guys got into a Japanese magazine! =D I was attempting to translate... and then gave up (LOL;;).

For anyone who's curious (just pointing out the main points, which are quotes from each person):
Sho - points out wig and coat, likes making own costumes, excited for first time at game show
Josh - came from Australia to Japan especially for this day (meaning game show), points out the hairstyle
Shiki - points out the boots and cap
Neku - cosplay is a wonderful thing that connects people all over the world, will always want to do it (meaning cosplay)
Beat - points out the belt
Rhyme - (I see the words "sweater" and "cosplay", but the rest is blurred)

[jaseroque]

Mine (I'm the Rhyme) says that my point is the sweater, and that I love to cosplay.

[jen_kat]

Haha, I see. How did they go about taking your quotes? It seems like everyone's quotes are pretty similar in format.

[jaseroque]

Yeah, they give you a sheet to fill out, and you just imput the relevant information. They mostly draw from your name (obviously), the 'point' of your costume, and then at the end you get to put a little quote of anything you like. We filled ours out half in Japanese and half in English, but I think they translated bits of it for us. My quote is so boring because I was dead tired that day! Next time I'll write something more interesting. ^__^

[ryouga_elliot]

I lol'd hardcore at that video.

Way to go dude. Awesome job.

[kojikatsuya]

Holy crap. That Neku is as close to perfection to any other version I've seen. And the hair is done 100% to the game! (I always have a gripe about Neku cosplayers never doing the front spikes and leave them as bangs)

[rallamajoop]

Srsly, I live in awe of her wig styling skills. Will be sure to pass the compliment on. =D

[alienchrist]

Again, wonderful pictures, very funny too!

Congratulations on getting into the magazine, you guys look great. And thanks for sharing the video, it really cheered me up!

[rallamajoop]

Thank you, nice to see all our silly antics being appreciated. XD

We took up a whole half-page photo in that magazine even! Guess they probably needed to to fit the whole group in. ^_^;
