Anytime we can squeeze in the semblance of a proper photoshoot at Katsu, I am grateful! Thank you @fxdandy and his team for making time for me!

I want to thank every single one of you that created art with me this year! 2023 was definitely the comeback year for me as I was pretty washed from my two year hiatus 😭😭😭 I created thousands of images with all of you this year and I was having a crisis only picking 10 photos. The 2023 journey would not have been possible without all of your support. I’m very fortunate and grateful to all of you 🙏
Even if the world line changes, as long as you don’t forget me, I’m there ♥️⌛️
First Stein’s Gate cos 🎉 more to come this year I hope!

It was genuinely SO lovely and an absolutely joy working with Felix in his studio, I’ve never felt so pretty omg!! We truly achieved the magic of Miku!! ((pssst you should definitely book him for one of his upcoming con slots like at ACEN *nudge nudge* ))

I've been locking in so hard finishing up a handful of Gachiakuta cosplays for ACen I completely forgot to post Zanka from C2E2 last month 🫣💙
Will be wearing him again on ACen Saturday with a big group ~ ✨

A day in the Inner Palace with Jinshi-sama, Lihua-sama and Maomao!
Presenting the first images of our epic Apothecary Diaries cosplay photoshoot in Japan with @fxdandy !
Each costume was made by the cosplayer:
Lihua - @_kcoz
Jinshi - @reika_japan_
Maomao - @yayahan
I love that we matched the Garden Party episode perfectly with our outfits!
It’s also significant to mention that all three cosplayers are veterans in the industry with well over 20 years of cosplaying experience. It was incredibly easy to pose and play off of each other, even though we had never done a proper cosplay shoot together! One of us would throw out an idea and the others would just snap to the perfect accompanying pose or reaction! By the end it was a lot of bullying Jinshi-sama 😂
Reika-san did a lot of the planning with the gorgeous location, K-san organized a rental car for us to transport everything easier, and I roped in @fxdandy who is very experienced with group photoshoots and just one of the best cosplay photographers, period! My dear @brian_b_boling was our wonderful assistant and got all the BTS. You can check out the BTS video on my IG if you’d like!

Such a special day! Everyone was on 🔥🔥🔥! I’m also posting a photo carousel of @fxdandy ’s beautiful images!
Random fact but years ago I did an Assassin’s Creed: China cosplay shoot at this same temple! It was as a part of a cosplay day and we also had to sign up ahead of time and pay a special price for the visit.
Do not show up in full cosplay to temples, parks and other public sights in Japan without prior authorization and research!
For this shoot, our backup was a cosplay studio of which there are many in Tokyo, Osaka and other major cities. Thankfully, they had an opening on the weekend we chose and we were even awarded with the sunniest day in like 2 weeks!
It was sooo hot this day, and my cosplay was surprisingly very warm and heavy (especially all that hair! 🥵) you have no idea how tempted I was to just yeet myself into the pool 😅
