“I Have the Plague.” –Anime STL 2019 cosplay & commentary

I have the plague. I don't know when it happened---if it was slow in coming or began all at once---but I have it, and I'm looking for a cure. An amazing someone tried their best to cure me, and their medical expertise was unparalleled in its individuality (the usage of ducks was very inventive, for …

Faces of the Scouting Regiment – CMV/AMV SATURDAY (09/29/18)

Frankly, the quality of this CMV put out by Cosplay Videos by Diesel blows my mind. The amount of time, energy, planning, cooperation, and editing that went into this video titled "2000 Years Ago" is astounding. The collaboration of 20 cosplayers and 3 crew members was filmed in Germany. Entirely amateur, they have no film making experience, …

Pack Bonding with a Smol Octopus (Anime STL —Day 2)

Today brings a return of my rambling, journal-like coverage of AnimeSTL. When I saw Elias, I knew it would be a good day. I'm currently waiting the next 20 minutes for the Caleb Hyles concert, and following that, well... I saw the CUTEST giant hedgehog at the dealer's hall, and it is 25 dollars, but …

Mayes Hughes is Alive and Well! (Anime STL—Day 1)

If you are reading this post because I handed you a business card, welcome! If you are of my usual anime compatriots, also welcome! Just welcome, everyone! And so begins my highly subjective, rambling, journal-like coverage of Anime STL! Does anyone have any rose petals I can borrow? How about a periwinkle jacket? No? Aw, …

Cosplay Updates~~ 1950s Gender-Bent Yuuri Katsuki

You may remember that I've planned a very specific cosplay for Anime STL (as well as any other cons I pick up this season). The deadline for creation draws ever nearer, and I'm getting antsy as the bulk of my work still lies ahead as my RL job gets ever more demanding... To begin, the …

“Keeping Up with the Dancing Wind” — CMV/AMV Saturday (04/07/18)

Have you ever wanted to see someone (or a group of someones for that matter) summarize the second season of Hakuouki (Hakuouki Hekketsuroku) in dance? Well, now you get to see it. I, for one, am just dead. I love it so much. Why do I love it so much? This feature is published on the …

“1950s Gender-bent Yuri Katsuki Cosplay” (Or, “Plans for the 2018 Convention/Cosplay Season”)

It's that time again, Anime Compatriots. We have officially hit... bum bum bum... CONVENTION SEASON!!! °˖✧◝(⁰▿⁰)◜✧˖° Last year, I hit up my FIRST EVER CON with Chronic and another anime compatriot; we decided to go big or go home when we flew out to Cali for the first time to attend Anime Expo 2017! (Not bad …

Yuri On Ice: The Musical!?!? (fan-made)

Excuse me while I die a little bit, guys. A huge cast and crew came together to make this fan-musical, and I'm loving it. It's so funny, and the singing is great. And the voice they got for Victor... yes. The production uses re-written songs from the movie "Grease," which in my honest opinion makes …
