akiyama-mio.jpg

The first cosplay rendition of Mio Akiyama to attain any exposure surfaces, and it has received mixed reactions from fans, although certainly has promise.

This is by Chamaro-san. Mio’s bass guitar may be expensive, but we can but hope she includes one in any future efforts, along with some additional Photoshop work for the unrealistic professional look.

More efforts:

And by another cosplayer:

    just the comments :( and that is sad ._.
    People won't realise that this is a site where all those themes are mixed and therefore insult/attack everything thats not within their line of interest.

    Artefact and the other writers commented much more often in the past. Maybe they are not that much interested, dont have much time. Or, that is what i expect, they dont feel like commenting because of this immense mass of crap comments.

    I like the cosplay. But to be nitpicky: the face doesn't fit that much. xD But that is hard to change... or at least way too expensive for some moments of otaku fame :P

    There are something like a thousand comments a day now. I probably comment as much as I used to, but proportionately it is now a drop in the ocean.

    I used to read every single comment, but when it hit 500 it just became impossible - I could make several posts for the time it takes to read that many.

    I too think Ritsu's better than Mio. I mean, i'm talking about cosplayers in here, ok ? not a chance i'd prefer 2d ritsu over Mio. It's probably because obviously there are some differences in the faces, and the 3d ritsu resembles her character more.
    as said, 3d mio lacks moeness. And it's not even so appealing. But still, we're talking about first attempts, and we have high hopes.

    Costumes are fine, though
