*ﾟ..A HAPPY｡ﾟ+.d(d∀ﾟ)(ﾟ∀b)bﾟ+NEW YEAR.:*ﾟ


I wanted to do an entry right after each convention I visited last year, but I was kinda busy, so I'll sum it up in this entry.

COSPLAY 2007

	Amy Sorel (Soul Calibur III) Worn: Tokyo Game Show (September 06), Fuyucomi (December 06), Toshimaen Cosplay Event (March 07), Wonder Festa (August 07) I wanted to wear a game-related costume for TGS, but as a matter of fact, I've never done any game cosplay. It was Cari who graciously lent me her Amy costume. I would've never chosen Amy for cosplay myself, because I feel both too old and too tall to cosplay her, but Cari did such a wonderful job on both costume and wig that I can't help but feel deeply honoured having been given the opportunity to wear it during my stay in Japan. It was very comfortable to wear and quite popular with the Camekos XD
	Myoubi (Alichino) Worn: Bookfair Leipzig (March 06), Connichi (September 07), several photoshoots Originally done for Bookfair Leipzig back in 2006. I still love this costume because I somehow think the colour suits me. Plus, it's pretty easy to put on and to take off. This is my third Myoubi costume and I'm still not sick of this character XD There're still some outfits left which I'd love to sew... In September 07 I also finally got the chance to do a group photo shoot with Feder -as a disturbingly cool Enju- and Maddi, the cutest Tsugiri ever. Photos by Krone and MCP
	Yukata (Original) Worn: Connichi (September 07), Mega Manga Convention (November 07) Closet cosplay... I got that Yukata as a present when I was in Japan. The pattern is pretty gaudy, so I bought some hair pins, accessory and some more bling-bling stuff, called it a gal version and wore it on cons, because I was too lazy busy to sew anything. PS: Walking in getas can kill your feet!
	Frog Prince (Original) Worn: Connichi (September 07) Anni wanted to do a fairy tale cosplay group for Connichi 07. Nothing like the usual Disney-stuff, but original and sexy. I immediately fell in love with the idea. Anni also came up with the idea of the Frog Prince, but as to meet the "sexy" condition, rather than a prince, I thought of a queen, when doing the design. It was the first time I used my sewing-machine in 12 months, so I had some problems, but I'm quite pleased with the outcome... except for the pants... Actually it was the first time I did pants! Oh, how I hate them... I wanted them to look a bit "frog-ish" , but I guess I failed XD Our group was made of pure WIN. Everyone did such a great job! So here's the list: Anni-bunny as Puss in Boots, Feenart as Tinkerbell, HaruVamp as the Princess and the Pea, KenHopkins as the Big Bad Wolf, Wildkirsche as Snow White, red_maiden as Rapunzel, Himawariko as Peter Pan and Chris as the Storyteller.

	Allen Walker (D.Gray-man) Worn: Mega Manga Con (November 07) Another ghetto closet cosplay. I wanted to do something new for MMC, yet I was lacking time and ideas. In the end, when I was thinking about which costume to wear, I suddenly felt the urge to do an Allen cosplay. I found suitable clothes in my sister's closet and did the crappy glove/claw thingie. Oh, the crappiness... Fun to wear though.

COSPLAY PLANS 2008
~Cosplays I'll definitely do this year~

	Euphemia Li Britannia (Code Geass) I started watching Code Geass in Japan and -although I'm fully aware of this series' many flaws- became addicted. So I bought a pink wig and decided to do a Euphie cosplay one day. Originally I wanted to do her princess dress from the anime, but I don't like the design. Then CLAMP designed this wonderful dress for her and now I'm intent on doing a pair cosplay with Maddi, who will be a wonderful C.C.. The only thing I'm afraid of is that I might look like a fluffy marshmallow with all those white ruffles....
	Nakajerine 29th (MiniMoni - The Movie) This one is definitely going to kill me. I guess most people don't even know this character. It's a fairy queen, obsessed with being slender and beautiful... Dubbed by Nakazawa Yuko, by the way, which is why I love her so much. I don't have the slightest idea about how to do her tights and wings (ideas, anyone?), but at least I've already done the staff. To be honest, the fact that the staff is finished is the only reason I haven't dropped this cosplay - I don't want all the work go to waste.

WISHLIST
~Cosplays I will do, but not necessarily next year~

	Arc (Final Fantasy III DS) My first game cosplay. Planned as a pair cosplay together with my sister, who wants to do Ingus. We haven't decided yet which of the 23 different outfits we will do, though.
	Yellow Ranger a.k.a. Nishikido Ryo (Kanjani∞) You just have to love him. I'll go and practise my evil grin now.
