K-On on Animax!

Wooo~ another cosplay baito!

I love cosplay baitos (part time) that provides free costumes (to wear, not take home =/) because they give me the opportunity to do characters I otherwise would never =3

Cutepetz as Ritsu, Inuran as Mio, Kaika as Yui and Yuanie as Mugi

And the series in focus today is K-on! Animax has launched 2 new series on their channel; K-On and Kaichou Meido. And we were gathered to help share the news.

Oh, and if you wanna flame me because you think I’m being a sell out. Go ahead. I don’t give a d*mn =)

  AyaTenshi as Misaki, Frank as Takumi

The place of event was at The Padang. Sadly for us, it poured heavily in the morning so the field was really muddy when we reported for work. The mud was everywhere and moving around posed such a big difficulty. We were literally playing chess with the field (looking down  trying to figure out which is the least muddy place to step on). By the first hour, our shoes and socks were already very muddy.

Try figuring out which feet belong to whom xD

 

But I guess we ought to be thankful that it didn't rain in the later half of the afternoon. Raining while we work would be even more FOL (=_=). The day was as usual, sunny and humid and we were sweating buckets in our blazer and stockings. Thankfully the material of the costume wasn’t too thick and the skirts were *cough* short enough to allow ventilation.

Too short, in fact, for the other 3 ladies especially poor cutepetz who towers above us all. It’s one of those rare times I feel secretly happy for being petite. And whenever the wind blew we would all be in a crazy chaos to hold our skirts down.

 

I am a failed Yui I know. I don’t have a ‘moe’ face =(

Okay, I exaggerated. We didn’t really get into that messy/fanservicey/embarrassing situations often. But not because the skirt wasn’t as short as I described but because … there WAS NO FREAKIN WIND! BLARDY HUMID CAN?!?!

With Mio and Mugi! Can’t believe I left Ritsu out T_T!

 
But its a new experience to be giving out fans and flyers at a sports, hip hop and family oriented event instead of the usual Animanga events. A football tournament of some sort was going on there so we got to talk to some foreign athletics too.

Wearing a blazer and wig under the hot sun is bleah! Trying to get random people to accept our flyer was even more bleah!

I got told straight and angry in my face a big fat "NO!!" (no to the flyers) once. But i guess its my own fault for following other's instruction blindly. The couple whom I tried to approach were in the midst of some debate/ argument and I didn't really wanted to approach them.

But for some weird reason yuanie thought it was okay and 'suggested' I approach them. Yes, its a bloody stupid decision on my part oTL. Point to note, next time . . . believe in my own common sense =.="

According to Animax, these costume made by Alodia.

 

No “moe” face still =_=. Yuanie looks very cute though.

Oh no… cutepetz got croped out in the stills of this random video we took in the lift xD

Okay, so I had a very packed weekend infused with cosplays, meet ups and saikanging so I’m dead tired now. I’m popping into bed. More updates soon~!

Comment if you think we’re cute! LOLZ *gets slapped*

Cosplay Gen Magazine

Woohoo~ Seems like there’s a new Cosplay & Japanese culture oriented magazine for english speakers like ourselves!

About
Cosplay Gen(eration), a project brought by the Otaku Magazine team, is an independent magazine (no ADS) focused on the worldwide promoting of cosplayers and of various Japanese fashion trends. The 72 pages of the magazine will include profiles featuring cosplayers from around the world and their amazing work; extended interviews; reviews from various cosplay events; articles centered on cosplay photography, cosplay trends, and Japanese fashion; tutorials; and also a beginner’s corner.

It’s a project born out of our love for cosplay and for Japanese contemporary fashion culture, and from the continuous need to bring these in the spotlight. We consider that a good project is always a useful one, regardless the many other existing similar means, and from this point of view there’s no such thing as “enough”. Therefore, in our attempt, we tried to collaborate with the best contributors and bring forth materials that would address to a very heterogeneous public interested in cosplay and Japanese fashion.

And check out who’s on the cover for the first issue!

And I see soooo many familiar names on the editorial list above ^_^ Kudos to the Singaporean (& Malaysian) Cosplayers and Photographers for making such active effort to contribute to the community! Not to mention being GOOD enough to be noticed and asked for contribution =)

I’m so proud of all of you! Like what one of the editorial people mentioned in Jesuke’s introduction speech below, it’s amazing how much “Cosplay” is flourishing in a place as tiny and ‘inhibiting’ as Singapore.

OMG, I can’t get over how funny  the name “Dan The Farmer” is, printed on paper/website  HAhahhahaa!!! I am so gonna tease Dan the next time I see her! 

 

To any foreign readers reading this, let me describe how things are like in Singapore. We have a sunny and humid climate all year round which means to say, the makeup on your face melts faster than your ice cream. And we don’t have the culture of dressing up during Halloweens so we didn’t have access to many costuming materials until recently. Even now, we still don’t have access to many many useful and interesting materials. Things are starting to look up but in the costuming commercial aspect, Singapore still has some miles to run.

Anyway I digressed again.

 

And wow, a Comiket review by our dearest Songster !!!!

Edit: According to noshuu, with shipping the cost of the magazine is SGD17

Surprisingly, the magazine price at  just SGD11.30 !?!?!! I’m sure that low price doesn’t include shipping. But nevertheless, for a 75 page ,coloured B5 print out , that price is a steal! Especially when you compare it to other cosplay magazine which sells at SGD 30 – 40 and the worse thing is, you don’t even know what the hell they’re talking about (language barrier=_=).

They’re having a pre order now. Pop over to their website to see more =). And just a disclaimer, no, I’m not paid to write this :P. Just sharing new information!
