To Aru Kagaku no Railgun: Uiharu Kazari and Saten Ruiko

I could have sworn I’ve seen these two somewhere before… but now I can’t remember from where! I thought it was Bakemonogatari, but the character list doesn’t include a girl with flowers in her hair.

I hope someone recognizes them! Thanks to Michelle for sending this!

EDIT: Thanks to anon for letting me know this is Uiharu Kazari and Saten Ruiko from To Aru Kagaku no Railgun!

Hetalia: Axis Powers: Honda Sakura

If I had to take a guess, two characters come to mind: Suzumiya Haruhi from The Melancholy of Suzumiya Haruhi or Hirasawa Yui from K-On! It’s because her hair is similar to both characters, but the kimono reminds me Kinomoto Sakura from an episode in Card Captor Sakura.

What do you guys think? Maybe we should vote on it? Thanks again to Miguel for sending this!

EDIT: Thanks to Clauie for letting me know this is the female version of Japan from Hetalia: Axis Powers, also known as Honda Sakura!

The 3rd Birthday: Aya Brea

Whatever series or game she’s from, I think she could be one of those strong female characters everyone else in the story falls in love with.

Who wouldn’t, right?

I’m not really sure what those Japanese text in the photo means, but the photographer probably put them there for a reason. A sort of signature maybe? Thanks to Sarah for sending this!

SoniComi: Sonico

Well, she’s probably one of the cutest girls in seifuku I have ever seen, but not even that pinkish-white hair, glasses, and headphones give me the slightest clue as to which series or game she could be from.

I hope someone will recognize this cosplay from Winter Comiket 2010! Thanks to Leslie for sending this!

UTAUloid: Kasane Teto

I have this nagging feeling that she may be another fanmade Vocaloid character like Yowane Haku, but I've gone through a couple of Vocaloid fansites with no luck in finding out who she could be! I wish we could at least see what the number on her right arm is, then I’d have a better clue!

If I had to guess though, I’d think she’s probably another version of Miku or Meiko.

For now, I’ll be featuring her in the Unknown Section until I get a better idea. Thanks to Ian for sending this!

EDIT: Thanks to Heimi for letting me know she is Kasane Teto from UTAUloid!

Kanokon: Minamoto Chizuru

Now this is interesting.

Not only is the uniform cute, but there is an additional cuteness of… cat ears or fox ears?

I’m tempted to say fox ears, because that symbol she’s making with her hand is a fox, right? And it looks like she has a tail too!

Anyone have any idea what series she’s from and what the name of the character is? Thanks again to Ophelia for sending this!

The Melancholy of Suzumiya Haruhi / Zeta Gundam: Nagato Yuki and RX-178 Gundam Mk-II

You can probably tell that's Nagato Yuki from The Menlancholy of Suzumiya Haruhi giving a notice to the Gundam; but that’s just the thing: I have no idea what Gundam model and make that is! And those “03” markings make me think it’s an Eva Unit more than a Gundam.

So I shall be leaving this in the Unknown section while I quietly sit down and wait for my readers to let me know from which series that Gundam is from… please? While I try to figure out how to title this blog entry properly seeing we have a crossover between two series. A very cute one at that. Thanks to again to Miriam for sending this!

Hetalia: Axis Powers: Prussia

Now isn’t this a lovely image?

Ok, so maybe only the girls will agree with me here, but I couldn’t resist posting this piece of eye candy even though I have no idea where the character is from. I just hope I’m right in assuming this silver-haired character is male..?

Hopefully someone can identify him! Thanks to Millie for sharing this!

.hack//G.U.: Atoli

It’s been a while since I last posted something into the Unknown Section. I hope you guys don’t mind my asking for help in identifying these characters! You’d think I know a lot of them by now, but once in a while, something always pops up!

Now this is one character I thought I’d find in a fighting game or some similar genre… Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to find anything that matches her look!

Anyone have a better idea? Thanks to Daniella for sharing this!

Bakemonogatari: Oshino Shinobu

This cosplayer looks so adorable despite having dusty knees, that I'm wondering is this is also in character or something.

Won’t you share with me some of that bread you’re eating? It looks very delicious.

Please leave some comments if you have any idea who she might be cosplaying as. Thanks to Lorelei for sending this!

日本鬼子: Hinomoto Oniko

I think I have an idea who this character is, but I can’t place a name to it.

Remember how the Chinese illustrated the Japanese as “devils” or “demons” because of their cruelty back in World War II? I seem to recall reading a recent Japanese retaliation by turning that character “moe”.

Then again, there are a lot of miko characters out there and she could be one of those too. Otherwise, her hair’s like Yuuko’s.

Any guesses? Thanks to Madelynne for sending this!

EDIT: Thank you to everyone who commented! I will add her as Hinomoto Oniko because more people seem to think she is that Japanese Devil, moe-fied! Thanks again, everyone!

Ne~PON? x RaiPON!: Citrus

I’m not even sure if she’s cosplaying or not, but she’s downright adorable isn’t she? Those look like small oranges on her wrists and lemons on her hair.

Whoever thought citruses could look this cute?

If anyone has any idea what anime, manga, or game she’s from, please do let me know. Thanks to Mike for suggesting this!

Vocaloid 2: Megurine Luka 07

If I were to take a wild guess (which I did), I’d say she was from Pink Sweets; the game I’m not entirely familiar with. However, after further searching, I was not able to come across any character from that series who resembles this cosplayer at all.

I’m just hoping my readers’ guesses turn out to be much better than mine. Thanks to Ikehara for suggesting this!

EDIT: Thanks to Anon for letting me know this is Megurine Luka from the PV "Cinnamon Roll"!

Ikkitousen: Kanu Unchou

It appears that some of the cosplays from Comiket 2010 (78) have been mixed up with the ones from Winter Comiket 2010 (79). No matter though… there are still several photos I have not been able to get to anyway! I need more time to write and research about more series and games!

I thought I could find out who this girl is, but I’ve gone through most of the girls in Street Fighter and came up empty. Perhaps my readers know who and where she’s from? Thanks again to Alex for suggesting this!

EDIT: Thanks to everyone for the flood of comments that this is Kanu Unchou from Ikkitousen! Now I'm wondering if I spelled her name right since there comments that say "Kanu" as well as "Kan'u"! Not to mention whether or not it's last name or first name for that matter.

Gundam ZZ: Elpeo Puru

It looks like a new flood of cosplays from Winter Comiket 2010 will be taking up a lot of feature space in Cosplay Holic once again! And of course, as far as Comiket goes, there are also a lot of new characters that I can’t identify, so I’ll be seeking help from my readers once again!

This cute girl caught my attention immediately, so I will let her do the honors of starting the features from this convention. Anyone have an idea who she could be? Thanks to Alex for sending this!

Fate/Extra: Caster

A fox or cat girl with a paper talisman? That can’t be right… aren’t talismans supposed to banish non-humans and creatures of the night?

Then again, it could be Megurine Luka cosplaying for her music video.

Bakemonogatari: Hachikuji Mayoi

I hope she's not a real school girl who got lost and ended up in Comiket or something like that.

She actually reminds me of Chibi Usa from Sailor Moon. I think she first appeared in the second season and she attended school during that time. This can’t be her though, because Chibi Usa’s hair is pink!

Anyone know what series she’s from? Thanks to Pitaten for sending this!

Fresh Pretty Cure!: Eas

For the second entry of the day and to further add to my depression, I have another girl who looks like she could be a character from a fighting game or fantasy manga. This is a double post for contributor, Ingrid, since she’s sent me so much material lately that I can’t keep up!

Ar tonelico II: Melody of Metafalica: Luca Trulyworth

It's beginning to become very depressing that I have so many unknown cosplays in Cosplay Holic. Maybe I should fly to Japan and stay there for a while to get myself up-to-date.

Anyway! I’m sure you can tell from all the details that the cosplayer worked really hard on her costume for Comiket 2010. I wonder if she’s from a fighting game or a fantasy manga? Thanks again to Ingrid for the photo!

Mayoi Neko Overrun!: Serizawa Fumino

When I first saw this in my inbox, it made me think of Toradora!’s Aisaka Taiga. She has blond hair, and the same tsundere attitude just like Taiga, but I don’t think they ever had uniforms like this in the series.

Does anyone have a better idea? Thanks to Bonamana for sending this!
