Kingdom Hearts: AntiSora

When Sora and his friends encounter Riku on Captain Hook's ship, he revealed that he had control over the Heartless, and created Shadow Sora’s to prove it. Once Sora had fought his way to the Captain’s Cabin, Riku creates a more complete replica of Sora, AntiSora, who was also able to wield a keyblade. AntiSora is the antagonistic, Heartless copy of Sora, using the prefix “anti-“ in his name which means “against.”

Awesome cosplay! Really love how his eyes are glowing gold, a symbol of the Heartless! Thanks to Phoenix for sending this!

Kingdom Hearts: Riku 02

Cool and collected, Riku and his best friends Sora and Kairi live on the Destiny Islands and spend their days constructing a raft and gathering supplies so that they might one day set out and search for other worlds. He is rivals with Sora, competing at almost anything they can think of. Despite the fact that their rivalry is of good intentions, Riku is known to irritate Sora by being a sore loser and being very pushy involving their fight over Kairi.
This photo gives me the sense of being “reborn” into the world, which is exactly what it feels like when celebrating and welcoming the new year. Excellent work as usual by Kashino Rei!

2011 Cosplay Calendar for Charity

When Natalie Parisi sent me an email regarding a 2011 Cosplay Calendar for Charity, I had to admit, I was quite skeptical at first. Mainly because I’ve had many requests like this in the past, and none seemed legitimate aside from this one:

25% of the final sale price will support Room to Read (Small deduction may apply. Learn more about eBay Giving Works)

About this nonprofit:
Room to Read seeks to transform the lives of millions of children in developing countries by focusing on literacy and gender equality in education. Working in collaboration with local communities, partner organizations and governments, we develop literacy skills and a habit of reading among primary school children, and support girls to complete secondary school with the relevant life skills to succeed in school and beyond.

This is an eBay Giving Works charitable listing (Administered by MissionFish)

Featured Cosplayers: Astarohime, Rei (Malro-doll), Ryoko (Ryoko-demon), Lune, Astellecia, Siera (Clamwings), K (K-chan009), Lillyxandra, Konoe, love-squad, Nek (neko-tin), Nichi, Green-Makakas, Kaikida

You can buy this calendar from Natalie’s Ebay… and if you do decide to buy one, please let me know how it turns out~ ^_^

Oh, and can anyone tell me which series the cosplayers are from so I can tag this in my blog properly please? I can only name a few… Thank you so much!

Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days: Roxas

In the prequel Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days, Roxas is a member of Organization XIII. He does not have memories of his previous life, but easily makes friends with Axel, the one in charge of watching over him. He also befriended Xion before falling into a month-long coma as a result of Naminé’s restoration of Sora's memory. It was only when Roxas awoke that he began to question the Organization’s motives.

I really love this cosplay and those awesome keyblades! I wonder if the cosplayer handmade them? Thanks to Beatrice for sending this in!

Kingdom Hearts II: Riku 03

Although Riku became a physical manifestation of Xenahort's Heartless, Riku continued to help Sora in secret. He was ashamed of his appearance and was able to gain the Way to the Dawn Keyblade. Riku was able to return to his original form when Ansem the Wise’s machine digitally sealed away Kingdom Hearts, later malfunctioning and then self-destructs.

Impressive cosplay and a magnificent Keyblade! I wonder what materials were used to make that? Thanks to Umbridge for sending this in!

Kingdom Hearts II: Rikku

A miniature version of her original Final Fantasy X-2 design, Rikku appears in Kingdom Hearts II as a little fairy. She retains most her characteristics in the new game; ditzy, good-natured, and a treasure fanatic like her teammates. Her attire is slightly modified, but retains its FF X-2 feel.

So cute! If only there was a bigger photo of this available. Thanks to Hanna for sending this in!
