Cosplay Feature: Jess Blaze Cosplay's Lenne!

Shot by Savanyahs Who the HECK is Lenne?!? I always love seeing Jess Blaze Cosplay continue the Final Fantasy rabbit hole she's in with all the cosplays she's done from the franchise. Tackling the mysterious singer from X-2 alongside her friend Kam C Cosplay (as Yuna) felt like a natural next cosplay for her to create. This also wasn't Jess' first foray into the many dress-spheres that the sequel focused on. For the originator of the Songstress job class, there's a whole lot of blue here which you see immediately with the main top piece and arm sleeves. Starting from there, you have essentially a blue vest that has lighter blue frills along the edges. The dress also has differing lengths for each side. One giving off a midriff look whereas the other extends longer past the black skirt.

Figure Review: Ann Takamaki by Hobby Japan


Through playing Persona 5, I definitely fell head over heels in love with Ann Takamaki. Otherwise known as Panther in the Metaverse, her design and character was something that hooked me in hard. After an accidental purchase when looking through her statue and seeing how much it'd cost me, I can happily say that I love this figure immensely. Nearly a year long wait for her too! Sculpted beautifully by Natsuki Manabe, this is Ann in her skin-tight cat uniform where she dons the identity of Panther. The curvature and shine of this statue is definitely one that makes me blush :3. Ann is made in a very action like pose, almost like she's about to spring into a fight with her deadly whip. Hell, even the box she came in was super rad! This statue of Panther is all done in a bright shade of red for the suit, with the darker shade for the boots. The zipper details are incredibly accurate, from the chest opening, to the one traveling down her backside.


The waves of Ann's ponytails are gorgeously sculpted too! When the figure arrived, there was some assembly that needed to happen. Mainly with her whip and the tail coming out of her butt. The latter part scared me as I was placing it in due to how loose it initially felt. The base is small and done in a sleek triangle shape with the Persona 5 title/logo on it. There's also a slight indent where Panther's heel goes for placement. The pink gloves stand out too! Other accessories include the Panther mask and a tuft of hair which can be switched to give Ann either a masked or unmasked look.

The whip was also pre made in a crazy loop so I did my best in recreating the correct look shown on the box and in the instructions. Ann has a nice spot in the corner of my desk so she's always looked at. Also of course I had to give you guys booty shots :D <3.








This is one figure I will NOT grow tired of, best accidental purchase ever! Currently the Ann figure is sold out over on Tokyo Otaku Mode where I purchased her. I'm unsure if she's out of print, gonna have to do some Google searching for her guys!
