Shutting One Door, Keeping others Open

UPDATED ON 8/20/21: Facebook, Patreon and Blog IG pages have been shutdown/discontinued As the COVID pandemic rages on and cons are even shutting down into 2021, it got me thinking on a drive home one night about how I'd feel with even coming back to blogging. When cons eventually do come back at some point. Truth be told, many of the posts and content I shared here could be transferred over to more discussions via my podcast CosplayBytes. I've been blogging my love for games, cons and cosplay for 7 years now and maybe it's time to say goodbye for now? My podcast has gotten me some incredible opportunities as a member of Press for conventions, and the rapid love I've had for streaming is also taking up a lot of time now. On top of multiple personal things on my end, I don't think I have the energy to keep this up even post COVID you know? The very first cosplay centered post I wrote was on Jessica Nigri's Deadpool, and since then it's spawned over 800 posts

Cosplay Feature: Bishoujo Mom's Mai Shiranui!



I can't recall if Bishoujo Mom made this as a brand new cosplay or simply did a reshoot for Mai Shiranui. Whatever the case, she did an absolutely gorgeous job and the setting overall really sets the tone she was going for. Mai may be familiar to most gamers whether or not they've played King of Fighters or not. Juliette here is in Mai's default outfit which is of a red and white color scheme. As a whole, she resembles a traditional Japanese female warrior/ninja. The kimono is draped over her front and back leaving openings in the sides. Also included in the cosplay are small arm sleeves that travel up to her elbows. Small white strips can be seen on these sleeves along her wrists. The cosplay is held together by a white sash wrapped around Juliette's waist. Prop wise, dual fan blades are being wielded which is also a trademark weapon for Mai.

I absolutely love the hairstyle that Juliette has going on and I'm almost certain it's her actual hair rather than a wig. My apologies if it's not! The pony tail is tied up by a single white piece of fabric. Juliette certainly has the bust/figure for Mai and some of the photos definitely showcase that. Another aspect of the cosplay I love is the makeup job on her face. Literally she's glowing in that area with most of the pictures I have to share.

Whether it's really cute cosplays like these, or super sexy lewd shots/concepts (such as her recent Starbucks Mermaid), I'm always loving what Bishoujo Mom puts out! There's really not much else I could say in regards to her Mai. As a whole the cosplay is simple in its design with not that much going on. The fans have a standard design to them as well. Feet wear consists of ankle sleeves to ensure Juliette is super comfy in this setting the photos were taken!
