It’s been a long while since I wrote anything relating to my personal Cosplay plans, usually labeled as as CEN.TAKU.ME Cosplay Corner, now renamed to simply Cosplay Corner for the time being. It’s been a year since I decided on my choices for Anime Weekend Atlanta ’08 (and originally for MTAC if I hadn’t ran out of money and a driver to attend).

As of 2009, I still plan on going as Toshirou Hitsugaya from Bleach. My attendance of AWA is very likely this year thanks to the Boogie BAM Anime Jam Club. (And this will probably be the last time I will mention attending AWA until a few days before the con as it seems I end up not going at all if I keep talking about it…)

In this issue, I am going to go over other costumes I plan on doing in the future, including some I’ve done in the past, and one I did recently. On the JAMPcon forums, there’s a Cosplay Resume thread. In it, I posted my reply with the following:

-Cosplay Completed-

Pan (Dragonball GT) – ACEN 2004
Vash the Stampede (Trigun) – ACEN 2006
Rukia Kuchiki (Bleach) – JAMPcon 2008

-Future Cosplay (50-100% Completed)-*

Iruka Umino (Naruto) – 80% Completed (AWA ’09, MTAC ’10)
Toshirou Hitsugaya (Bleach) – 60% Completed (AWA ’09, MTAC ’10, JAMPcon ’10)
Kakashi Hatake (Naruto) – 60% %90 Completed (Debut On Hold)

-Future Cosplay (0-49% Completed)-

L (Death Note) – 10% Completed
Edward Elric (Fullmetal Alchemist) – 10% Completed

I wrote that post a couple of months ago. Since then, I’ve managed to finish my Iruka costume, and the results were fantastic! I participated in Boogie BAM Anime Jam’s first Cosplay Contest on May 30th. A report along with lots of pictures will be posted in another installment of Cosplay Corner coming up soon.

Moving on to the unfinished costumes: I need a wig and a Captain’s Haori—without buying the whole Hakama again, for Toshirou’s costume. I will also need a sheath for the sword—that I could make myself, out of vinyl fabric—or just do without if there’s no time left.

And for Kakashi, I also need a wig for him and a part of a Balaclava pattern for the mask. I need a pair of sandals (I made my own pair of Naruto sandals last year and for the cosplay contest, but I’m worried as to how long it will last through the weekend).

Anime Weekend Atlanta is only 2 and a half months away. There’s plenty of time for me to get my Toshirou costume together. Until then, I will come up with my Cosplay plans for MTAC and JAMPcon ’10. ^_^
