/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

Michiru, Laura, Aimee Major, TristenCitrine... who else?? who's the Saturn?

Saturn isn't in this photo, that's Pluto. Adella is the Jupiter. Uranus is Laura's old gf, I forget her name.

>>7917760
Holy shit that's Adella?! Did not recognize her, night and day from what she loks like now...

>>7917760

Surprised the Uranus isn't Michiru's GF

Shit, I feel like I used to know Ami but I'm blanking on her name now. Are these FL/Georgia people?

I miss BrightestAtDawn

Not ancient, but I really miss KoiCosplay. Not for them, just for their batshit crazy drama.

>>7917589
>Michiru, Laura

These two also dated for a short time.

>>7924485
Yep, one is trying to be an author but her first book flopped and the other recently married her girlfriend.

>>7924473
>copyright Naruto Lolita Maid do not steal!!!!!!!!
Those were the days. Are none of them active any more?

I followed the Neptune and Uranus cosplayers before i knew about cgl. I remember being so upset that they broke up. I have her two books. I think they are alright. I wonder if she still cosplays though.

>>7924544

Laura wrote a book? I think that's kind of...awesome, actually? Someone I used to know is a published author. That is mind-blowing. What's it called?

>>7924521
They're still active, I think, but not nearly as popular as they used to be.

>>7924585
Not Laura, Jacqueline - is called Ascension but it got harsh reviews and bombed. She's since stopped updating online blogs etc.

>>7924616
Jacqueline Koyanagi? Her last name is Koyanagi now? Didn't she end up marrying ANoM or Dan or whatever his name is?

>>7924585
No its Mary Shannon. The book was called branded anne. I liked it. Its lesbian fiction which its always fun.

>>7924678
Wait so two of them are authors writing bad lesbian fiction???

Anyone know what became of Enver, that Seiya cosplayer who was with Usagi Kou for a while? They seem to have dropped off of the planet.

This is the only photo I have of Michiru and Anom. whyy do I have this photo? WTF? who knows. I don't even know what costumes these are.

>>7924616
Four stars on Amazon doesn't seem like 'bombed' ngl

>>7925297
I think that these were just outfits from a photoshoot rather then cosplay.

>>7926539
Yeah, that was just a photoshoot they did a long-ass time ago. Also I know a lot of people thought Michiru/Jacqueline was a dramabomb but she was always nice to me when I was hanging with them. I might check her book out.

>>7925356
Have you read the reviews on one of her blog site's, its hilarious.

>>7925297
Are they still married? From her twitter it sounds like she's dating some genderqueer snowflake girl.

>>7928493

she was my hero when I was a cosplay kid-ling, but she seems to have dropped out of cosplay after she and Mary Shannon broke up?

I remember just staring at her Artbook Anthy cosplay and wishing one day I could be as good as her. Those two were the First Ladies of cosplay for sure. Tristin Citrine, Aimee Major and the Ami whose name I forget were their Cabinet of awesome. I remember how badly I wished I lived in the West Coast so I could see their cosplay in person.

>>7928869
Michiru didn't date Mary Shannon, Laura did.

>>7928849
Yeah she's still married and still batshit insane.

>>7928794
I have not but I'd like to. Link plz.

>>7928849

They are, but they're (both) poly-amorous. To each their own, I suppose.

>>7928869
Michiru or Laura? Michiru was my personal cosplay hero. She's so goddamn pretty.

>>7932565
This is her now

>>7932826
What.

>>7932826
interesting

>>7932826
I thought her whole thing was hyper-feminine? And that's why she liked Michiru?? wtf

>>7935938

Nope, she's butch now! Gender identity incoming!

>>7935938
She reinvented her personality at least 5 times in the last decade.

>>7936882

I guess. I remember her when she was in her super metaphysical stage, showing off her rock collection and talking about meditation and the eight-way path and pseudo-buddhism.

>>7937286
Is that lilly xandra? What the fuck is she wearing?

I'm kind of a Michiru/Jacqueline expert so sit right back and you'll hear a tale...

So she was a straight lesbian all through high school and for the longest time. But then one summer she did some sort of internship in Hawaii or the Caribbean and met a dude who was married and had an affair with him. After that, she was bi. She went to Japan at some point, then she became an even more special snowflake and got really into her spirit animal and stuff. Then at some point she met Dan and of course they became Assassins, Inc. which everyone seems to remember because they actually put out some really quality cosplay in a short time. Then they posed nude, and she was on some pay site (no, I don't have the nudes), she has a bunch of tattoos so it was an alt girl site, but not SuicideGirls. I forget what it was called. Anyway, they got married and are still married, but they are both polyamorous and she usually has a girlfriend on the side. She seems to suck up bits of personality from everyone she dates, so since her last gf was more tomboyish, she cut off all her hair and now looks totally different. IMO she looked better with her long hair and more woodsy/ethereal way of dressing, but that's just me. So she makes chainmail jewelry and writes queer sci-fi and also works at a vet's office because she really likes dogs.

The end.

>>7937669
I forgot to mention, she likes dogs because she has a thing about wolves, I think they're her spirit animal, and Dan took her last name when they got married. Which isn't even her real last name, it's her maternal grandmother's last name, who is Japanese.

>>7917760
her name was Meg. Sugar and Spice. Dang, spontaneously remembered that.

>>7937677
If she changed it legally, it is her real last name.

>>7937286
Mary and JoEllen. Man, I remember when that Sakura cosplay was AMAZING. How far the cosplay world has come.

Have some Yaya

>>7917536
as someone new to /cgl/, I'd really love to soak up alot of board culture and such, so i am monitoring this thread

LimeBarb, Voltz, Stripper Vash, Jia Crens

>>7937845
also Midwest: CardCaptor Will (and ~Moot~)

>>7937669
That's kind of sad. At 32 you think she'd be confident enough in who she actually is to have her own path and go down it...

>>7937829

AUUGH I LOVED SUGAR AND SPICE.

>>7937833
Isn't that Christy with Lillyxandra? Does she still cosplay at all?

I miss DFC Yaya...

>tfw nobody ever found out who the Motoko cosplayer was

>>7940172

Wasn't it DIa??

>>7941610
No, Dia was the Mamimi.

idleambition. One of the Genki Gang.

>>7941914
She was not part of the original Genki Gang. You saying that makes me buttmad.

>>7941947
I recognize Miyu and Bev but who are the other two?

>>7941914
GOD thank you.
>>7941959
Still fap to her.

>>7941947
Oh Yeah! Bev! Does she cosplay still?

>>7917536

>>7942242
Get out.

You're welcome.

Beverly!!!!!! I forgot the dude's name but he had an awesome Balthier costume from FFXII

Almost a decade and Lindze's Morrigan is still the best Morrigan I've ever seen.

what was the drama with koi? i love them

>>7942242
This is not old. Being an "oldfag" means you were cosplaying between 1997 and 2002. This pic is from just a couple of years ago.

>>7943121
Was this before photoshop or after photoshop?

>>7943271
I disagree, imo oldfag status ends at about 2004-2005 or so. That's when the community really started to change into how it is today.

>>7932826
thanks tumblr.

>>7937677
>spirit animal past middle school.

>>7943618

No kipi? Come in seagulls, I know at least some of you remember the kipi floods.

>>7943961
I remember Kipi's dad!

>>7943941
OMG is that sum Kat from breath of fire? <3

>>7943941
Holy shit. I remember this. Wow.

>>7942195
She's pregnant and only talks about pregnant things because pregnant and oh my god pregnant. She's a computer teacher at an elementary school.

>>7943618
This makeup looks so much prettier on her. What year was this?

>>7945405
What. She looks like a Mexican bride in the close up.

>>7937833
Newfag/non-cosplayer here. Holy shit @ that being Yaya. Fucking insane how much her face and body have changed.

Does anyone else have any pictures or comparison pics of what she used to look like?

>>7945429
Oops. Scrolled down and found a bunch.

>>7943941
;_; memories

>>7945405
you sure about that?
Even when this dress came out, she was still slammed for her "overly mature" makeup and slutty boots. Some things never change.

>>7945667
Fucking christ, thank you. This doesn't scream 'Yuna'. She really is chola bride here. Her Lenne was shit, too.

>>7945667

>>7937286
>>7940171
Nope, definitely Mary, JoEllen's sister.

>>7945667
That's still toned down compared to what she does today.

>>7943941
I wanna see heidi wear her katt again.

>>7945896
And, it still looks like your average stripper makeup.

>>7945667
You can see the color of her skin? That's not like her at all. Still
>yayaposting

Hey whatever happened to the SailorJAMBoree girls?

>>7938677
You'd think, but nope. She changes friends at the drop of a hat too.
