Choosing between two cosplays..
« on: July 12, 2010, 10:42:50 am »
So at the moment I am unable to make a decision on two cosplay ideas I have.

One of the cosplays would be Sakura from Tsubasa Chronicles (I'm leaning towards one of the more complicated outfits). Also, if I choose Sakura I also need to choose which outfit.

The other cosplay I want to do is Shana from Shakugan no Shana. I had been planning this one for quite a while...

Reference pics:

Nice pic xD Remind me never to piss you off. >_>;

Anyways, as much as I <3 Sakura, I think you'd look better as Shana.  Maybe it's the fact that both of you are holding a sword in that picture, but you seem to "fit" as her better. ^_^

To me it depends on why you are cosplaying. If you are doing it for the pictures and to be noticed go with Sakura because she is a better known character. I think Shana is a little too ordinary looking. She is wearing casual clothes. I imagine a lot of people will just think you are a girl walking around with a sword and not realize that you are cosplaying unless they know the character.

I'm gonna have to disagree with Nikkiolie since the long red hair is a dead give away that you're cosplaying, despite the "ordinary" school girl outfit. But yes, I think you should cosplay Shana! It may not be as recognizable, but I think it'll look good on you!

Though Sakura is pretty awesome it'd be even cooler to see Shana cosplayed. I've always had a soft spot for the less known. =)

Just think, you can be a badass mofo and just eat melon bread all day instead of being some stupid broad whose face doesn't express emotions.

Well then, Shana it is I guess (I was also going to order red contacts if I did cosplay Shana..) and since I made a school girl outfit last year, I know this year should be easier :P.

I think I'll also get her trench coat..thingy.
