So I knew I was gonna get insanely addicted to Hades 2 but I wasn't expecting to essentially clear it all out a little over a month after it released. Having done so much in the first game it didn't take long for me to get back into the rouge-lite groove and do run after run to progress its story. So naturally that led to me wanting to find cosplayers that portrayed the main antagonist Melinoe. Shiro Cos was someone I came across early on as I was searching throughout Instagram with the game's hashtag attached and man does this look freaking awesome. To kick things off, the 3D files for some of the pieces like her weaponry in ADDITION to the killer shoot location were provided by cosplay collective The Dangerous Ladies ! Shiro has a short bob cut blonde wig with a small leaf crown placed on top. That crown also has a silver moon symbol placed directly in the middle of it. This to help signify Melinoe's placement as one of the Silver Sisters. You'll notice that the ...
I mentioned multiple times on here since rooming with her at Katsucon, that Anya Braddock is a gorgeous sweetheart who I treasure dearly. Last night I managed to do a video interview with her and I couldn't be more happier with the outcome. You're guaranteed to laugh at least once during the whole thing as I dive into Anya's cosplay life. Classifying herself as the black sheep when it came to liking nerdy things growing up around her family, Anya was definitely fascinated by cosplay. Finding people dressing up as Sailor Moon characters wowed her to the point where she wanted to do this for herself! In this interview, you'll get a peek into Anya's style with her dozens upon dozens of bodysuits and bikini cosplays for ColossalCon. Whether it's Zero Suit Samus or Bikini Widowmaker, Anya certainly has covered a wide variety of characters.
From initially being all anime and a weeb (as most anime fans are), she soon dove into the gaming side of cosplays along with dabbling in some comic book characters here and there. With Kingdom Hearts 3 being on the horizon, she mentions she has a backlog of games to finish. Just have to get through not playing Overwatch and LoL, that's all! We both take a look at how Katsucon was for us, her cosplays she brought, and the cursed Panther tail that eventually broke later on. RIP Takamaki tail.

Every time I do a cosplayer interview in video format, I love each of them for their own reason. No way could I ever pick a favorite! I definitely can't remember if there was one where I laughed as much as I did with Anya. Her personality and smile just light up the room and seriously can't wait to see her at another convention. Her all pink attire for the interview, doubling back on questions to give me even more answers, tales of the cursed image, this was just lots of fun for me to do. I hope you all sincerely enjoy the video. Buckle up too, it's a long one ;)
