Koizumi Risa:   Zephyus
Otani Atsushi:   Kaika
Photographers:   Brian & Lynweh
Helpers:   Maria

I've been wanting to cosplay Lovely Complex ever since watching it somewhere around late 2009 (?). Yes, I'm horrendously late into the Anime but hey, a good story is good regardless of time right?

Anyway, if any of you haven't watched/read Lovely Complex yet. I highly recommend you pick it up. While the story is simple, the way it is developed and presented really puts you straight into the context. It is literally a series that makes you laugh and cry at the same time.

I am obviously too small to cosplay Risa, so the other option was Otani. Which is just as well since I was hoping to expand my Cosplay genre. I'm doing way too much girls =\ . I decided Lovely Complex's costume was just too bland to cosplay alone and hence went on to invite my Risa!

I was pretty disappointed when anther cosplayer declined my invite to be my Risa and I thought my chance to cosplay Otani was gone. But somehow I managed to psycho Zephyus to be my Risa and what a mighty pretty Risa she was!

The shoot was pretty cursed in a way and started off horribly off-schedule. But in the end, we made it. Much thanks to all the photographers and helpers who made it possible with so much patience and laughters.

The cardigan was bought from Uniqlo and we stuck ribbons and felt over it to create the red decorations required.

It was one of the most 'fun' photoshoot I've ever had in a while. Cosplaying as comedic characters meant we could do whatever un-glam stuffs we wanted. Like Lynweh said, we were like 2 big kids xD

80% of the shoot was like this xD Everyone was just laughing and having crazy fun.

I was really surprised when Zephyus agreed to be my Risa. She was always cross-dressing and despite knowing her for so many years, that was the first time I saw her in a skirt xD

All in all, it was a very fun shoot! I especially ravish the chance to act gangstar-ish and boyish xDP1110467

Much thanks to the photographers Brian and Lynweh for their kind patience and Maria for her incredible wig styling skills and jokes! Last but not least, much love to my very very pretty Risa for obliging to cosplay something different with me!

Hopefully more pictures to come soon ! And hopefully, you guys enjoyed the photos as much as we enjoyed taking them! Leave me a comment if you like them ^^!
