Cosplay Feature: Holly Bean Cosplay's Sypha from Castlevania!

Photo by David Ngo By the time you're reading this, I will have just gotten back from my first convention of the year, PAX East! You can hear all about it in a brand new episode of CosplayBytes! For now, let's go back a little bit further to MAGFest from January for even more gaming related cosplays. Holly Bean Cosplay here brought along her cosplay of the devoted mage Sypha from the Castlevania anime adaptation aired on Netflix. By the time of this posting, the original has aired two seasons plus a spin off called Nocturne starring another Belmont Descendant. You'll notice that even if the cosplay is relatively simple in its design, I love both the pose work that Holly has done in addition to the edited photos that came out of this. Starting from the top, Holly is rocking a short orange wig with a variety of curls and wefts seen on her sides and from the back. Then you have the main top piece all in a light shade of blue and layered.

Cosplay Feature: Dollilicious' Rikku!

Getting to meet Dollilicious this year has been an absolute delight. She was just as sweet in person as I imagined her to be with following her work online. I really wanted to share one of her cosplays again having done one before on her Cindy but it definitely took me awhile to pick another outfit! I went with her Rikku cause it's one of her cutest outfits plus it's the one I got a print of! I hope you guys don't mind the selfies I got of her in this cosplay too! Dolly's Rikku is of course the thief outfit worn mainly in Final Fantasy X-2! Lots of warm colors make up the cosplay with orange and yellow taking a forefront here. For instance, the bra top is mainly yellow with an orange trim around its edges. She is also rocking a small orange/red scarf around her neck. The wig Dolly has is pretty spot on for Rikku, and you can't forget about the blue bandanna wrapped around it!

Other areas of the cosplay include long white arm wraps which are wrapped in several knots as you travel up to where her hands are. Simple forest green shorts are visible with a belt tied at an angle. Along this belt are small pouches that have the same color scheme as Dolly's top. Black fingerless gloves, and a side cloth are seen as well. The latter piece looks to be hanging off of her shorts! Orange lines can be seen within the shorts too! The cosplay overall is fairly simple and is more so perfect to wear at the beach or other fairly warm areas.

Dolly's figure looks absolutely incredible in the cosplay, she perfectly captures both the sexy and cute natures of the character. I imagine she puts on an incredibly bubbly personality when wearing this! It looks like more shots were taken for her Patreon which I'll link to down below! For now check out the photos I managed to find <3.
