  • What Are Adult Themed Cosplays?

    What Are Adult Themed Cosplays?

    When people think cosplay they think it’s usually innocent fun – and it is, don’t get me wrong! The cosplay hobby fortunately hasn’t gotten the same stigma as Furry fandom and Bronies (male fans of My Little Pony). However, like anything else, people will find the sex appeal. There is a difference between dressing up as an already sexualized character and doing a cosplay that is “adult” in nature.  Adult cosplay takes the hobby to another level and allows adults to use this medium to express themselves sexually. Most cosplayers who take part in “adult” cosplay reserve it for evening/night time events at conventions, parties, and photo shoots. Adult cosplay is also choosing to cosplay a character from something that is also mature in nature – like hentai which is pornography made in Japanese anime/manga style.

    Common Misconceptions Abut Adult Cosplay

    People who do it aren’t “real fans” of what they’re dressing up as is a major misconception. Attractive people are jumping on the geek train for attention and taking innocent things and ruining them with sex appeal. Not true at all! Many who do adult cosplay genuinely like and enjoy what they’re dressing up as and could easily take on another fan in a trivia game. Also the misconception that the porn industry is willfully infiltrating “geek spaces” to wrongfully paint geeks as perverts and sexualize things that never had sex appeal.  As long as there have been fans of a piece of work, there have been people finding the sexuality in it and showcasing it.

    Star Trek fans in the early days wrote some very explicit stories about the crew of the Enterprise and before then, people had some interesting theories about the sex lives of Sherlock Holmes’ characters. Now with modern technology and new ways to express enjoyment of something, people are now showcasing their sexual take on various characters and themes visually through cosplay. Another misconception about real cosplayers is they’re unattractive losers (and those who are attractive are “fake”). Again, there are many physically and aesthetically attractive people who love things that are geeky in nature and dressing up in cosplay costumes.

    Why Is It So Popular?

    It takes fantasies to another level. Sure there have been budget porn parodies of famous movies, books, and comics but fans could tell the only thing the performers knew how to do in it was sex.  A couple of porn performers would be given cheap Spider-Man and Mary Jane costumes to put on, given a handful of cringe-worthy dialogue, and then get to the “meat” of the movie.  Cosplayers have a history of love and attention to detail with what they are portraying. So when a cosplayer is doing a movie of Spider-Man giving it to Mary Jane, not only will the costumes look more believable, but the performances tend to be as well.  People can really invest themselves in the fantasies rather than be taken out of the moment because something seems too off.  There is also the appeal that geek girls and guys are just as horny, raunchy, and naughty as jocks and cheerleader-types.

    What Are Adult Theme Parties Like?

    Cosplay-themed parties are a blast because no where else could you see people portraying some of your favorite characters and be so open-minded with expression. At regular events you ask a woman in a Catwoman costume to unzip and flash – you’d get thrown out after she slaps you. At these parties she more likely will happily do so, laughing, and grab a drink with you. Deadpool can really be in character, flanked by beautiful men and women (and everything in between) who happily let him consensually grab them making wisecracks. A Danaerys Targaryen cosplayer will prove her immunity to fire by stripping off her dress and let people do body shots of Fireball whiskey off of her.  You have all the women of super hero stories lined up presenting their butts, shaking them in perfect unison. Guys in Star Fleet uniforms can openly joke about being with someone from another galaxy. The damsel in distress characters are actually enjoying being tied up! There’s just so much going on and people being so open-minded with their creative expression and sexuality.

    A Final Thought On Adult Theme Parties

    Adult Cosplay is a unique niche of cosplay because those who take part of it celebrate things about themselves that make them unique. They don’t feel ashamed for having a sexual attraction to certain looks or personality types. They revel in the creativity of making costumes that may also in turn show off what they feel are their best assets. It’s important to note that the usual events where cosplayers feature are not adult in nature. Some cosplayers with booths may have a folder of prints of nudes for sale but they’re not out in the open. And all rules of mainstream events should be respected. But there are special parties as well as photoshoots and other engagements where cosplay and cosplayers are allowed to be more mature and get naughty. If this interests you keep an eye out for them and support adult performers who are cosplayers who make the kind of content you like!

    Spanish Cosplayer Candy Cottom

    Hi Candy it is a pleasure to feature you on SimplySxy.  Please share with our readers a little about yourself and where you’re from?

    Thanks for offering me this feature. I’m known as Candy, I’m a Spainish cosplayer, have one twin sister, Reivaille and is a cosplayer too. I am 21 years old. I mostly cosplay girl characters (especially “loli”).

    I have been a person who has suffered many ups and downs in this world but there is nothing that pleases me more than to read a nice comment about what I do.

    Where do you love to shop from?

    Long time ago I discovered the world of online stores and since then I have not left that world .

    What beauty products do you use to look so fantastic?

    Thanks but I have never used any beauty product for my skin or anything and I wouldn’t start using because redness will begin to be noticed haha.

    Why do you love to cosplay?

    Has it never happened to you that you would like to see it differently? To be someone else? Well I do it by doing cosplay, I get to be another for a few minutes or hours. The magic of cosplay and that’s why I love it part of it is fun.

    What kind of movies do you enjoy watching?

    I enjoy a lot with the cartoon movies. I could spend hours watching them.

    If you can travel anywhere in this world, where will you go?

    My list is too extensive to choose only one site but if I have no choice I’d go to Japan. Even though I’ve been, it’s a country I never get tired of.

    Have you experienced a funny or embarrassing moment before?

    Not really.

    What is your idea of an ideal date? 

    I always imagined an ideal date in Disneyland hahaha. Sounds very fanciful but why not?

    Thank you for taking the time to answer our questions Candy. One question before we end, how do you define “sexy”? 

    I define sexy as having the confidence. An attitude.

  • Cosplayer Brittany Chaos

    Cosplayer Brittany Chaos

    Hi Brittany, thank you for taking the time to answer our questions.  Please share with our readers a little about yourself and where you’re from?

    My name is Brittany or (Brittany Chaos). I’m originally from Dayton, OH born and raised. But now live in San Antonio, TX. I stared cosplaying back in 2010. When I went to my first conversation (Dragon Con) in Atlanta, GA. I wore my Lady Deadpool cosplay. The feedback was so overwhelming that I wanted to keep making costumes. In my everyday life, I’m a hair stylist and have been for 10 years now. But in costume I can be anyone!

    What do you love most about cosplay?

    The immediate connection you have with a stranger, when they see you dressed as their favorite character. Another reason is being able to be anybody I want. I know simple right? It’s more than that. The cosplay you become could be a little kids hero. And the way they light up when they see you… it’s the best feeling in the world!

    Is there a misconception you still commonly hear about cosplay?

    Well there are a few. But the one I will talk about is age! That you should be young (below your 30’s) in order to cosplay. Not true at all! I’m 32 and still going strong ! And I can tell you I’m just getting started!

    Which is your most memorable cosplay experience so far?

    This has been the hardest question I’ve had to answer. Since I’ve had so many amazing moments while cosplaying. From meeting celebrities, pro cosplayers, etc. But my most memorable would have to be during memorial weekend this year. I was attending a local convention called Alamo City Comic Con. It was here I first debuted my Hawkgirl. As well as competed in my first costume contest. The most thrilling moment was walking on stage and showing everyone the hard work I put it! I was placed 2nd in the expert level. I was incredibly proud of my self! Because there were some pretty amazing costumes I went up against.

    How long does it typically take for you to prepare for one event?

    Well if we are talking building a costume. That can take me months. After a cosplay is constructed it takes me about a week to prepare for an event.

    Are you more into action movies or horror flicks?

    Horror all the way! I’ve seen so many horror movies! Do not get me wrong I like action. But I will choose horror over action every time!

    If you could go back in time to live in a historical period, which will you choose?

    That’s hard! I would say, the 50’s. I love the clothing during that time frame. The hair, makeup, how people presented themselves.

    What is the funniest or lamest pickup line a guy has tried on you? 

    Oh gosh, Well I have been asked if I wanted a sugar daddy. Which I kindly declined.

    It is a pleasure to feature you Brittany. One question before we end, how do you define “sexy”? 

    Being confident in your own skin, a sense of humor, and Passion. Confident to know you can do it, humor to laugh at your mistakes, and passion to keep trying!

  • Alternative Model & Cosplayer Aleata Illusion

    Alternative Model & Cosplayer Aleata Illusion

    Hi Aleata it is a pleasure to feature you on SimplySxy.  Please share with our readers a little about yourself and where you’re from?

    Heya, thank you for having me! Well I go by “Aleata Illusion”..Aleata is my real first name, but Illusion was added as a stage name. I hail from a small town in Ohio, but I’m currently in the moving process. I love change and need some new scenery and people! I’m a little ball of artistic creativity. I have always been interested in ALL THINGS ART! I can’t even properly describe how much of an impact it’s had on my life and who I am.

    I think my “super villain” title tends to confuse people but I actually model (alternative websites, Cosplay, magazines, live shows, conventions, for fun). I am a student of business and journalism, I design and make clothing, sell fetish items and stage clothing. I am a photographer, writer, and I love doing promotional work. I haven’t kept up with it in awhile but I also love blogging about horror movies, I basically use my social media to still rant about them.

    What inspired you to start modeling?

    I was inspired to start modelling when people were gaining more interest in me than the other work I was wrapped up in. I always just posted photos to express my creativity and would collaborate with some amazing photographer friends, and friends of the alternative online community really loved what I was doing. There’s no one like me in the world, I think I’m referred to a lot as sexy and sarcastic. Most models try to play themselves off as conventional and avoid any kind of confrontation, but I’m just an outspoken person. I will never hold back my opinion to make someone else feel comfortable.

    I love what I do but I am who I am, I don’t feel the need to water down my personality. I think that’s why a lot of people take to me. It’s an amazing feeling to inspire other people and be sought after as a sex symbol, my ass is legitimately famous. I don’t know how many strangers have identified me online by my bum. Not to mention the opportunities that come from promoting my modelling on social media is insane, everything from tattoo artists offering work to brands contacting me to sport their clothes. I really have a blast with everything I do and even though I have some crazy fans I still try to communicate with everyone! I can’t even relate how stoked I am for new shoots and publications this year! I’m already getting swamped with requests to do so much, it’s really surreal. I don’t plan on quitting yet so the road of entertainment will be a long one for me! I will always stick to the entertainment industry!

    What motivates you?

    I am my biggest source of motivation! I will legitimately give myself motivational speeches if I ever start feeling overworked. The people who stalk my profiles to report my photos and leave hateful comments, they definitely motivate me. You can only laugh at nasty individuals like that because it’s all jealousy based, I’ve dealt with it my entire life. Any type of hate only fuels my fire. I know who I am and what I want to accomplish in life and I’m doing just that. When people are afraid of criticism or falling out of line, they have a tendency to take it out on those who are doing what they love fearlessly. I’ve always had a wacky appearance and bold personality so I’ve been judged and harassed by strangers my entire life. I used all the hate as a stepping stone to build off of, go even further, rise above the rest. It keeps making me stronger and I feed off it. It doesn’t matter path you choose to follow in life there will always be someone that doesn’t like what you do, so why not do what you love?

    I have been lucky enough to have spectacular amount of supportive friends, family, and fans! People write me beautiful messages, share my photos, buy my sets and items, even the people who take the time to say “good morning” every day, it all makes me smile. I challenge myself to see how much I can accomplish every year regardless of how much craziness is going on in my personal life. Another thing I’ve always wanted to do was have an article in the number one magazine representing tattooed people, Inked Magazine. I know a wonderful photographer who shoots for them so that dream may be a reality very soon. I just keep working hard and pushing forward. We only live once so just go fucking nuts!

    Is there a fashion trend you hope will make a comeback?

    When it comes to fashion trends, I’m an eclectic weirdo. I love so many different styles and love mixing all my clothes to form creative little kawaii outfits. Also in the way of clothing I adore designing my own and having everything custom made. It also helps because I’m extremely small, I weigh about 90lbs and I’m 5’4” so I never fit any clothing items properly. I love Japanese, Chinese, 80s punk, 50s retro, and costume wear. I’m a huge comic/horror movie fan so cosplaying is a huge aspect of what I do. I never follow any certain trends that are going on, I start my own.

    If you could learn anything in this world, what will it be?

    If I could learn anything in this world? Well, I’m currently learning to speak Japanese. Writing in kanji won’t be as easy. I’m literally a knowledge sponge. I read constantly, I love listening to people’s life stories, I love studying just about anything. It’s true what they say, knowledge is power. Open your mind to the world and take everything in.

    Which is the sexiest item in your wardrobe?

    The sexiest item in my wardrobe would have to be my birthday suit. I LOVE BEING NAKED! I’m a huge exhibitionist! In the way of lingerie, I love the white strappy style that shows off almost everything. Mesh fabric is always alluding to the figure. I have a thin tone body with a bubble butt so I can pretty much rock anything! I love color and any bottom I wear has to show off my butt or it’s just unacceptable. I also love my cut/ripped-up halter tops I make out of old band shirts!

    Is there any music artiste you wish to watch live but have yet to?

    I used to do a ton of band promotion so I’ve already seen most of the bands live that make my heart skip a beat. Dennis Lyxzen is truly an inspiration to me and I really hope to see him live soon. He’s the lead singer of “Refused” and his new band is called “INVSN”..he’s not just another punk rock singer, he’s a political activist who’s fighting for what’s right in the world. There are not many bands around still trying to convey an important message to their audience, to make people really question what’s going on around them.

    When you can artistically turn what you’re passionate about into something meaningful to change others lives, that’s what life is about. We are lied to our whole lives beginning with shit like; Santa Claus will only bring you presents if you’re a good child, about having to follow all the rules, only listen to what we’re taught in school, go to college or you’ll fail, get married and have kids or you won’t be normal, dress how everyone else dresses or you’re a freak, obtain the religion you’re “born” into and never question the inner workings of the cult-like propaganda being shoved in your face and down your throat. People like Dennis are fighting the good fight, he’s standing up for what’s right.

    Lamest or weirdest attempt a guy has hit on you? 

    Oh, here we go…I hear a lot of horrible pick-up lines considering I do nude modelling. I could never count the copious amounts of dick pics I receive on a daily basis. I’ve heard things like “I’d drag my dick through miles of shards of glass to lick your feet”, “I’d bury my face in dat ass”, “I’ll fuck you until you can’t walk straight for a week”…lot’s of disturbing messages and comments. I get asked out on a daily basis, I get marriage proposals, I get the people who fake being “photographers” and “business managers” to try to lure me into their homes, people who claim to have connections.

    I legitimately have people follow me around in public, stare at me with their mouths open, try to start conversations based on my tattoos or hair to ask for my number or try to get a date. I don’t feed into any of the weird stuff. I’m a professional, straight edge, monogamous family woman. I have morals and high standards. People are fooled by what I do and they are crazy if they think any other alternative models would just happily accept their disgusting requests. All the girls get their fair amount of sicko and trolls, even if they don’t model in the nude.

    Thank you for taking the time to answer our questions Aleata. One question before we end, how do you define “sexy”? 

    You’re so very welcome and thank you for having me! Now to define “sexy” I’d have to say it can be a little bit of everything! Sexy doesn’t always have to be defined as completely naked, spread eagle, sucking on a dildo. Sexy can be your attitude, your personality, your style, your habits,  your intelligence, your outlook on life…as well as your body, but it can always be much deeper than that. People may get reeled in by your flesh, but they’ll stay for other little quirks you exhibit. I’ve had people fall in love with me over the strangest things, from my nose to my laugh, from my confidence to my strength.

    Sexy is so much more than people give it credit for. We can’t just judge people by looks, someone could be gorgeous on the outside and despicable on the inside. I have never fallen for someone over looks, there was always something unique and intriguing that I didn’t see in anyone else. Growing up we’re all disciplined to be discouraged by flaws. But to me, I think sexy is being rare. Being a rare breed of human is something so beautiful. That’s sexy!

    Canadian Cosplayer Koneko Cosplay

    Hi Jamie (aka Koneko Cosplay) it is a pleasure to feature you on SimplySxy.  Please share with our readers a little about yourself and where you’re from?

    Hi, thanks for offering this feature. I’m a Canadian cosplayer finishing up my third university degree, working on producing more cosplay, and filming for my YouTube channel.

    What inspired you to cosplay?

    Other cosplayers inspire me to cosplay and just my love for anime. Whenever I watch new anime series my list of cosplay keeps going up!

    Which characters have you loved cosplaying most so far?

    I really love cosplaying Krul Tepes from Owari no seraph (Seraph of the End). She’s such a cute sassy little vampire and it’s great. I also love cosplaying Sailor Moon as it’s a childhood favourite!

    What are some of the challenges you face when creating a costume?

    I just have a regular sewing machine so doing anything fancy when making costumes is difficult. I’m also a little impatient with patterns so creating those can be challenging. Money and available resources often create challenges as well, but there’s nothing like completing a challenging project successfully!

    Have you experienced a funny or embarrassing cosplay moment before?

    Not really. I’ve put pieces on wrong but no one noticed except me and so I was able to fix it before anyone did notice.

    If you can travel anywhere in this world, where will you go?

    Japan. Hands down, no question about it. I’ve wanted to travel to Japan for the longest time and I’m hopefully making the trip within a year or so.

    What do you find attractive in the opposite sex?

    A smile. The first thing that attracted me to my fiancé was his smile.

    Lamest or weirdest attempt a guy has hit on you? 

    I don’t remember anything too lame or too weird.

    Thank you for taking the time to answer our questions Jamie. One question before we end, how do you define “sexy”? 

    Feeling comfortable and confident in your own skin.

    Which is your proudest achievement so far?

    As a influencer I’m honored that I got selected as Etude House Ambassador from 2015-2016.  As a cosplayer, I’m glad to say that in just 3 years I have handmade 4 to 5 sets of costumes <3 even though I’m still quite new in the committee.

    What is your secret to looking so fantastic?

    IT’S A SECRET. *winks*

    Do you have any hobbies?

    Drawing, cosplay, makeup, cooking, and collecting stamps.

    What kind of music are you into?

    I love pop songs ! Can’t live without it. My current favorite song is Shape of you by Ed Sheeran. I also love oldies like songs from Westlife too.

    Have you experienced a funny or embarrassing moment before?

    HAHA , yes to be honest a lot of times. Especially when I thought I saw my friend, called out to them, ended up getting the wrong person .

    What is an ideal first date for you? 

    Romantic but casual. I would love it when both of us are feeling comfy yet being able to enjoy each others company . FOOD>FLOWERS.

    Thank you for taking the time to answer our questions Regina. One question before we end, how do you define “sexy”?

    Sexy doesn’t necessary mean you need to have a curvy body or being pretty.  For me sexy means having confidence and being proud of yourself for doing what you love.

    Illinois Model Penny Aphrodite

    Hi Penny it is a pleasure to feature you on SimplySxy.  Please share with our readers a little about yourself and where you’re from?

    Thank you so much for having me! I was born in Heidelberg, Germany, and now I currently reside in Central Illinois.

    Photo: Fine Art Photography ( www.fineart-adel.com )

    What do you love about modeling?

    The ability it gives you to be different characters/people, to take you to different worlds and different era’s, and being able to dress up in all sorts of fun outfits!

    Fine Art Photography ( www.fineart-adel.com )

    How will you describe a typical day for yourself?

    This is going to sound strange, but I usually wake up and start my day around 3pm. Once I wake up and get ready, I either go to rehearsal for a local theatre production I’m in, have burlesque practice, or go out and do a photoshoot. Once the night starts I head off to my day to day job, which is night audit at a nice hotel in my town.

    On my off days I usually am watching my favorite TV series/anime, playing video games, or sewing either my cosplay or burlesque outfits.

    Is there an experience everyone should try at least once in their life?

    Travel. I can not stress enough how strongly I recommend going on vacation to your dream destination, either alone or with company. So many people I meet let work schedules, finances, fear of leaving, everyday life – anything, to prevent them from seeing the world. Take the time, save up, and spoil yourself at least once. There’s so much out there, and everyone deserves a chance to see it.

    Photo: SKGlamour Photography ( www.facebook.com/skglamor/ )

    Which is the sexiest item in your wardrobe?

    Only one? My whole wardrobe seems to consist of leather, lace, and lingerie. I actually have a harder time picking out outfits for everyday wear then for a night out.

    Photo: SKGlamour Photography ( www.facebook.com/skglamor/ )

    What motto do you live by?

    There is only one way to avoid criticism: do nothing, say nothing, and be nothing.” – Aristotle

    Photo: SKGlamour Photography ( www.facebook.com/skglamor/ )

    If you could describe yourself as a flavor, what will it be?

    Vanilla! Original, a classic, and you never grow bored of it.

    What do you find attractive in the opposite sex?

    I’ll be generic and say personality. However if I’m being fully truthful, I tend to be drawn to men with power, or those in charge. I’m into dominance and people who have their life together, I guess. Also, a tattoo or a piercing here and there doesn’t hurt, either.

    Photo: SKGlamour Photography ( www.facebook.com/skglamor/ )

    Thank you for taking the time to answer our questions Penny. One question before we end, how do you define “sexy”?

    Compassion, character growth, and confidence. xoxo

  • Chicago Based Cosplayer Whitney Wickham

    Chicago Based Cosplayer Whitney Wickham

    Hi Whitney, thank you for taking the time to answer our questions.  Please share with our readers a little about yourself and where you’re from?

    I feel like I’m kind of from all over the place. I was born in Idaho, grew up in Montana, lived in Los Angeles, France and Germany and have now found myself based in the Chicago area! I am kind of a nomad.

    When and how did your interest in cosplay start?

    I was always that kid who was putting together costumes out of my closet. I lived for Halloween and any chance to dress up. I suppose that may be why I was so heavily involved in Theater. But in Montana we didn’t have comic cons and cosplay wasn’t something on anyone’s radar but I was performing as characters at birthdays and events since the age of 16. I only recently in the past 3 years began taking it super seriously and began making my own cosplays.

    Do you have any quotes or mottos that you live by?

    Do or do not, there is no try.“- Master Yoda and “We all must face the choice between what is right and what is easy.“- Albus Dumbledore

    Is there something you can never get enough of?

    Guacamole….I suppose it’s a good thing it’s good for you! And TRX workouts.

    What is a typical day like for you?

    Generally I get up and go to the gym because it’s a great way to get energized for the day. I also have a 4 year old at home so between teaching him letters and numbers, I’m either making patterns for costumes, sewing or creating props, or doing a photoshoot. On weekends most likely you will find me on a film set acting or doing a charity event as a character.

    How much of a foodie are you?

    I’m allergic to a lot of things so I don’t get to try as much as I would like to, but I will admit I’m a bit of a food snob. That doesn’t stop me from chewing down on some sinful foods every so often though. Sometimes there isn’t anything better than a corn dog or pizza. My favorite food however is sushi and love to go to those all you can eat sushi places. I also just discovered Chinese Hot Pot…I may have a new addiction!

    If you could learn anything in this world, what will it be?

    I would love to learn all of the languages so no matter who I meet I could always communicate. I feel bad when I’m in a character and a child sees me and they speak a language I don’t. There is nothing more magical than inspiring another person.

    Have you ever had a bad date experience to share?

    I once was taken out to a typical chain restaurant where my date had not only some bad gas he didn’t excuse but paid for the entire date with coupons. In a way I have to commend him because he was who he was and unashamed to show it.

    It is a pleasure to feature you Whitney. One question before we end, how do you define “sexy”? 

    I feel sexy is defined by ones own confidence. Being comfortable in one’s own skin no matter the shape is what makes a person sexy.

    Cosplayer Raquel Sparrow From Australia

    Hi Raquel it is a pleasure to feature you on SimplySxy.  Please share with our readers a little about yourself and where you’re from?

    Hi guys, thank you so much for having me. I’m from a country named Macau, I’m part Chinese, part Portuguese and currently living in Melbourne, Australia working as a Graphic Designer. I escape the real world via video games, comic books and reading too much /nosleep on Reddit.

    When did your interest in cosplay begin?

    I’ve always loved dressing up and Halloween was definitely a day in the year I’d look forward to the most. But what really sparked my interest was when I went to my first convention named Manifest in 2013. I quickly put together a “closet” Tifa cosplay and I had a blast at the convention. I was able to be 100% myself and not to be judged by anybody and that was great! Being a Graphic Designer, I’ve always been into arts and crafts, so I started looking into armour making and came across Kamui Cosplay, she is and will always be my inspiration and cosplay goals!

    Which characters that you have cosplayed before are you most proud of ?

    I would say my Thor,  Aquaman and Darth Talon were my biggest achievements. I always aim to get better though!

    What is the most common misconception you hear about cosplayers?

    “Is that what you do for a living?” I hear that all the time! I wish honey, I wish.

    Which is the craziest thing you have done or experienced so far?

    I wouldn’t call this one crazy but an experience that really stood out for me, which was definitely moving to Australia on my own at the age of 18. I’ve met so many people and had so many experiences in this country I wouldn’t change a thing. I’m so glad I live here now.

    Do you have any guilty pleasures?

    Watching horror shows on Netflix/YouTube and eating in bed all day, singing out loud to Disney songs and otome video games (Japanese dating games, yep.)

    If you could describe yourself as a flavor, what will it be?

    A strawberry sour skittle! You know how you don’t know how sour it is, then you have to get that over that super sour coat and then get the sweet part of the candy? I’m like that,  I’m actually quite shy and can come across cold or even… “standoffish”? But once you get to know I’m quite bubbly and hard to get me to shut up!

    Connor Kenway by Snap Happy Ian

    What is the lamest attempt a guy has tried to hit on you?

    I was at the beach with my girlfriends and there comes this guy, “Excuse me, but you know what’s missing in your life? My number.” Smooth, sir, smooth.

    Thank you for taking the time to answer our questions Raquel. One question before we end, how do you define “sexy”? 

    Sexy is confidence. A state of mind, an euphoria which determines how you speak and your body language. Being able to talk to someone that is sure of what they believe is super duper sexy!

    Hi Termina, thank you for taking the time to answer our questions.  Please share with our readers a little about yourself and where you’re from?

    I’m a full time prop maker, cosplayer, and model from Indiana.

    What do you enjoy most about cosplay?

    The thing I enjoy most is making things and then admiring them when they’re done.  I guess that’s probably the artist in me talking, but there’s just something magical about making something from scratch and then seeing it in all its glory when finally finished.

    How long does it take you to create a costume from scratch?

    It really depends on the costume.  Somethings could take only a few hours and some things can take hundreds of hours.  For example, I made my entire Meme Chan cosplay from Me!Me!Me! in under 24 hours, but my Aranae Highwind from Final Fantasy xv has taken months worth of work.

    Have you ever had a bad cosplay experience?

    Absolutely.  No matter what your choose to do in life, you’re bound to have a bad experience with it eventually.  It’s just the way life works.

    Which fictional character do you wish was real?

    Oh, there are plenty I wish were real, but I’m always going to be partial to Spike Spiegel from Cowboy Bebop.

    If you could have a superpower, what will it be?

    Does not having to sleep count?  Not sleeping would be great.  I’d get so much more done!

    What item at home can you use as a weapon if there is a zombie apocalypse?

    I live in the same place I work, so there are tons of tools/weapons around I could use in a zombie apocalypse.  The choices are nearly unlimited!

    Are there any characters which you will love to cosplay in the near future?

    The next thing I’m working on is a genderbent Kimahri Ronso from Final Fantasy X. its going to involve wearing stilts, facial prosthetics, and full body makeup, so I’m really excited to challenge myself with the design and transformation!

    It is a pleasure to feature you, Termina. One question before we end, how do you define “sexy”? 

    That’s a tough one.  What is “sexy” doesn’t really have a set definition, so the answer will be different depending on who you ask.  Personally I find badass anime guys sexy, but to each their own!
