The Anime Character Quiz: VIDEOS!!!!!

Wooot, there's a lot of updates today. Hehehe, its my attempt to make up for the lack of contents this past week.

Anyway, so I played a small game with some cosplayers during Soy’B and this is the final consolidated video.  How the game works is, I will show a video slideshow of 30 Anime Character pictures and the cosplayers have to say out the name of that specific Anime character as fast as possible.
Sounds easy? 
Well, it would be if you had all the time in the world to think. But nope, they (or you if you’re gonna attempt) only have 3 seconds each. If you’re game enough for it, then go ahead and try the quiz below!

How did you fared xDDD ???  Tell me your score in the comments!
I bet you stumbles and sluttered and probably waved your hands hysterically at the screen. Just like what some cosplayers did in the video below. Enjoy =)

Isn’t it very HAHAHHALOLWTFBBQXD?????? 

Can’t remember who took this photo >.< If you know who did, please comment and I'll update!

Gotta love their reactions ! Much apologies for taking so freaking long to churn this video out. Literally 6months *palms forehead*. But in my defense, I did a lot of other stuffs like Just Be Friends Cosplay PV , TCC videos, Worldwide Cosplayer Photo Journeys, work, life, my own cosplays etc etc so well……you really can’t blame me can ya ?

And of course, the biggest reason why this took so long was…………………because it’s FREAKIN INSANE TO EDIT!!!!!!!! See those little vertical lines in the pic above? every 2 lines symbolizes one cut, and that’s the simpler way of explaining things.
Anyway, nuff with my complains. I guess this is something you guys won’t understand *sigh*.

WCS Summary Video + Cosplay Tips video!

Hi guys! Pimping some videos from youtube ^_^

A 200 3 – 2010 compilation video done by the WS Organizing team. Its a nice way to have a quick recap of all the past contestants and whatnot. Even though I am slightly put off by the obvious race preference in the video footages.

----

And I found another cosplayer on youtube! Aurellion from Youtube gives some insight into what it takes to be a cosplayer and how to start things cracking for your very first Photoshoot. Watch below!

Aurellion covers how to do basic cosplay makeup for female characters

And she gives you an insight and breakdown into what goes on behind a cosplay Photoshoot and what you should look out for. Absolutely adores how much details she managed to cover in this video.

That’s all, Tata!

Vocaloid Cosplay PV: Melt

Avatar: The Last Airbender: Azula

The 14-year-old, manipulative princess of the Fire Nation, Azula is a Firebending prodigy and one of the few living Firebenders capable of casting lightning. She is Zuko’s younger sister and is loyal only to her father, Fire Lord Ozai. She uses fear to control her relatives and friends but even though everyone admired her when she was young, her mother favored her older brother over her.

A beautiful display of Firebending without actual fire by *risachantag! According to her description, she used “Flowlights”, a bright LED glow poi for her fire. She won best solo skit during Manifest 2010. Thanks to Rivalry for suggesting this!

Here's the latest documentary about fans of youth Japanese culture called Otakus.This covers various activities they do as well as one of the cons that they attend.


Originally, this was gonna go up three weeks ago, but I had recorded it when I had a cold so my voice sounded very sickly in it. Now that I recovered, I rerecorded it and now its up.

Hi peeps! I'm probably late in linking this but Danny Choo and Alodia fans out there, heads up!

Naruto (Life action )

Someone just pimped me this. According to the title, its like the best Naruto Life Action video in China.

Now that you’ve watched the video, I’m sure you’ll agree that the title was halfarsed. But that said, I gotta admit I comment them for their efforts and the skills of their video producer. Lovely sharingan and flames effect. Personally as a Cosplayer, I’d love to be involved in such a production and bring my own worshipped series to life.
I’m starting to feel like I ought to continue watching Naruto.  I’ve abandoned it ever since the fillers came in=_=;;;; Yeah, that’s like SUPER long ago.

Jay Chou’s new song with the animation of Naruto. Last finger bit is very ….leaves much to intepretation lols

Hiiro no Kakera Cosplay (GCA 2009)

Wahahah finally got around to editing this crack video taken last year at the GCA (Games, Comics and Anime) event! Awesome cosplay and much entertainment from this bunch of cosplayers xD

Tamaki Kasuga(春日珠紀 ): envyinwondrland

Takuma Onizaki(鬼崎拓磨 ): herotenka

Mahiro Atori(鴉取真弘 ): keixtique69

Yuuichi Komura(狐邑祐一 ): lennethxvii

Shinji Inukai(犬戒慎司 ): sckisses

Suguru Oomi(大蛇卓 ): reiyu-verse

Ryou Kutani(狗谷遼 ): jesuke

Vocaloid Cosplay PV pimps

Soundless Voice

I have the bad habit of leaving the music on whenever and wherever, as long as I can have it on. Sometimes I don't really even listen but I just need something to block out the distractions. My favourite song of that period would dominate my playlist and be on infinite loop. This is the song at the moment. Hahaa !

It's queer how when Reiko first pimped this same video to me long time ago, I didn't really bother much with it. But after listening to Barushie's version, I'm totally hook. Gotta love these fansingers.

And Touya Hibiki has got to be my new Cosplay Idol (if not first). She looks really good here! And she really does look like a guy/boy here @_@ It's so unfair! How can someone look so good in both genders! God is unfair!

The Kaito is sexy :D Miku is chio. Nuff said!

Costume Design

Training for the fights

Hair & Make Up

Their dedication and professionalism to the film (which is a fan tribute, not really commercially backed, mind you) amazes me.

Its just so awesome to see a bunch of really talented people spinning each of their magic. The vibe of their talent resonance, catalyze and echoes each other and finally, form this amazing piece of art.

Seriously, they inspire me to do more with my own Cosplays Art. I suddenly feel so fired up! I WANT MOREWEEE!!!!
