This cosplay of Ventus and Aqua from Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep is brilliant.

Last year, we reported about a sighting of Kirsten Dunst walking through the streets of Tokyo in a weird costume. Here is the music video that she was making.

On July 25th 2009, from 10am to 4pm, Tokyo's Cafe & Bar DiCE! will be turned into a place of terror, borne from the stuff of nightmares. It will turn into Aokazetei, a full-body kigurumi cosplay waitress cafe.

For the fortunate few who are unaware, "kigurumi" cosplay can be best described as mascot cosplay, wherein the cosplayer dons a full-body suit and mask. While the term itself is quite general, covering everything from mecha cosplay to the sorts of animal suits worn by furry enthusiasts, this particular variant concentrates on wearing full facemasks with the design proportions to suit the characters and costumes.

I can imagine it now, a kigurumi waitress approaching your table and asking for your order, the voice muffled by the freakish, dead-eyed mask. Gah! Well...at least they're not inflating themselves.

Hit the gallery for psychological trauma.

The arcade fighting game BlazBlue: Calamity Trigger was released in Akihabara today and our favorite cosplaying Asobit staff is here to promote the game. This time she cosplay as Noel Vermillion, one of the in-game characters.
