Cosplay idol Shoko-tan has been busy making mischief; we hear that she made the three announcers pictured above give Kira☆ poses, and in addition has published a spot of Macross cosplay on her blog, and produced a rather skilful illustration of Ranka Lee, both visible below.
The programme in question is めざにゅ~ / Mezanew, which has no particular connection to anime, and it is not clear whether the trio had any idea about what they were doing – alas, no video is available.
You’ll recall that she recently drew Aya Hirano too..
If you’re not familiar with her, see the Shoko-tan cosplay idol gallery.
the cosplay was okay. but the fact that I hate ranka lee made it look worse for me…
go sheryl nome!!!
shokotan’s ranka is actually doing the el cornato instead of the kira pose. the world metal council would @#$%^&* her.
HOLY s♥♥t! I didn’t notice until you pointed it out!
Go, Shoko tan! You blew it royally!
Gotta wonder if she’s wearing anything under that dress lol.
Whats the origin on that hand sign? I don’t think it originated with Ranka
But it did! IIRC it was dubbed the キラッ☆ (kira) sign on 2ch and Nico as the first Ranka/Seikan Hikou-themed MADs after episode 12 emerged. But there is the slight possibility that I’m actually misinformed on that one.
I like the somewhat shoujo-esque feel of her drawing style… she should do an ero-manga!
