3. That costume is bad ass, isn't it?

And I'm glad that there was an anime fan out there that got the Sailor Moon reference! :hi:

10. I LOVE the costume!
I had my daughter come over to look at the picture and she responded exactly how I expected. :D

Our local video store use to carry Sailor Moon but they stopped 6 months ago more or less. We've been relying on YouTube clips for a while but I need to break down and buy the damn videos.

Please let me know if you get an answer to your costume question!

13. I don't believe that's technically a cosplay
I think it's Dark Sailor Mercury from the live action Pretty Guardian Sailormoon a few years back

21. I've been okay,
had a bad breakup and family issues over the summer, but I've been slowly getting myself back together over the winter. This next con'll be the first time I was single at a con in three years, so I get to flirt with the bishies :D

8. I have two Sailor Moon costumes...
One was made (Princess gown) and the other store bought (sheer luck.) I'm excited to see someone who knows what Sailor Moon is. :P

17. My "friend" was supposed to help me with a KH1!Ansem* costume
As part of my ongoing mission to cosplay/crossplay all the brown people in anime and games. :P Fortunately the way I'm built, crossplay works. I can pass for a bishounen if need be, I'm tall and androgynous looking.

But yeah, we got the pattern and fabric and everything and then she went crazy and ran back home to Pennsylvania, with my pattern and fabric. :argh:


*I refuse to call him Xehanort--fuck Nomura and his lame ass retcons! :mad:
