Daily Cosplay Spotlight: Melanie

Anime Vice’s daily look at amazing cosplayers around the world.


Today’s cosplayer is from the great country/continent of Australia, the home of the colony drop. Melanie has a unique take on what she cosplays. There is a severe lack of anime cosplay, but instead concentrates on video game cosplay; more specifically, cosplay from Dynasty Warriors, Samurai Warriors, and Sengoku Basara games. This is incredibly interesting for I have never seen someone almost completely concentrate on these types of massive beat’um up style of game. What’s even more impressive is that she does a fantastic job crossplaying male characters as well; and she even managed to cosplay all of my favorite characters too! Check out her Cosplay.com for more pictures of this talented cosplayer.

So, cosplay isn't illegal yet there then?  Wonder when laws are going to start going into effect for that

FREYA! Not an easy or usual cosplay to see. Major props.

My alternate title for that first pic is "All Stormtroopers Go to Heaven." Seriously, she only needs the helmet and a blaster rifle to pull it off.
