Cosplay Feature: Karlibra's Genderbend Riku!


Throughout the course of my time on Social Media and cosplaying, I've came across so many amazing people. Some of which have become such awesome friends and I'm more than happy to gush about one of them to you guys. For today, I have my friend Karli who's Genderbend Riku INSTANTLY made me gravitate to her. It was so great to find another Riku cosplayer not to mention how incredibly beautiful she looks as the experienced Keyblade master! The version Karli chose is Riku's Kingdom Hearts 2 look. Complete with blue pants and the vest. The latter part has the classic colors of white, yellow, blue and black. I love Karli's shoes she chose for him. They're mainly black and white but incredibly high heels!

Karli's eyes look absolutely beautiful here. Not to mention the long silver wig she wears which matches up Riku's color perfectly. Weapon wise, Karli has the Oblivion keyblade which looks to be done with foam. I have to say it looks so freaking cool and that she did an excellent job on it. The cosplay as a whole was debuted at Wonder*Con this year and I have with me many photos that she sent me so I hope you guys don't mind the excessiveness :).

The pictures vary between convention hall shots to outdoor shots. Karli can be seen doing a variety of poses from raising up her keyblade to standing a bit stoic like, ready for battle. It's unfortunate that she lives on the other side of the country as I would very much love to meet her one day and take awesome pictures of our Rikus together. Was so happy to hear she liked my cosplay of him as well <3. Enjoy the rest of the pictures everyone!
