Cosplay isn’t something that any Tom, Dick and Harry could do. First and foremost, you need a good costume. It’s certainly not something that you could just buy anywhere, most of the good cosplayers make their own costume, and they make it nicely. Next, you need to have the character, or at least a certain resemblance to it. I’m talking about physical appearance here. I’m disgusted with the large amount of UGLY cosplayers around, you can’t be someone by just putting on the costume. (I’m sorry but I am that shallow)
Tifa Lockhart is one of my favorite characters in Final Fantasy, and I would not forgive anyone that tarnish her with an UGLY cosplay. But this cosplay is certainly the most awesome I’ve ever seen! And the cosplayer is so cute!
Her name is Yuu, a Japanese cosplayer. That’s all I know about her, she has also a myspace page here, and friendster here. Photos below are mostly taken from her friendster profile, just to show how kawaii she is!
Here’s a photo with the original costume of Tifa in Final Fantasy 7.
Now that is what I call cosplay! There are many other good cosplayer out there too, like Kipi, who makes her own costume and does appearance all the time. She is, absolutely gorgeous as well. ^.^
Tifa is probably my favourite gaming girl ever, so to see her “brought to life” so well is awesome. Thank you for making my rather crappy day a hell of a lot better!
hawt indeed! but her figure does have some catching up to do – recall tifa’s watermelons =P
