• Feature & Metrocon Plans

  A few days ago, I was featured as “Sexy Cosplay of the Week” on nerdbastards.com. Thank you so much!

  This weekend I will be heading down to Tampa for my favorite Florida convention, Metrocon! I’m really looking forward to it, especially since I wasn’t able to attend last year. Although I won’t be entering anything myself, I was asked to judge in the costume contest! Metrocon is the regional competition for the Yume Cosplay Prize, so I’m really looking forward to the experience.

  These past few weeks I’ve been working on a few new costumes for my Metrocon line-up. Here’s what I plan to wear, most of which are with partners or a group:

  

  ♥♥ I hope to see some of you at the con! Good luck to everyone competing. ♥♥

• New Content!

  I’ve been a busy bee with all these site updates! SeishunCon was a blast; I debuted three new costumes that weekend and won a nice award in the costume contest. All of my latest costumes now have their own pages online with information & galleries. I also took the time to re-organize the costume page, so it’s a bit easier to navigate. Tsumugi, Louise Maid, and Mizore also have some new photos.

  Next up is Metrocon down in Tampa, FL which I am excited to be attending once again! I will announce my costume lineup and other plans once the date gets closer.

  A while back I made this little video of my sewing room. It’s not much, but maybe some of you may find it entertaining? I apologize for the loud music, I’m still getting used to editing videos.

• We ♥ Summer

  Date: 2010.06.24 | Category: Conventions, Costumes, Updates | Response: 0

  Hello, everyone! Summer is here, and I’ve been busy making preparations for events & conventions that occur the next few months. On top of getting fit and working full time, things have been pretty crazy for me. Last weekend I attended the Momocon / AWA sponsored photoshoot at Rhodes Hall and got some excellent shot of my Louise Maid costume! Afterwards, my friends and I did a little K-On! shoot with our school uniforms. Pages for those costumes will be updated within the next week or two.

  

  Please vote for me in the AC Paradise Ranka Lee Contest! Select “Miss Meru” and “Vote for this Entry” if you’re a fan of my costume.

  

  I will also be at SeishunCon in Atlanta this weekend to debut 3 new costumes! Look forward to it & hope to see you there~ and as always, I’m up for a link exchange. Please contact me if I haven’t added you; I tend to be forgetful. ♥

• Galleries & More!

  Although updates lately have been less frequent, hopefully that will start to change. Since February, I’ve been working on getting everything on the site up-to-date, along with adding a different theme for a new layout.

  

  All costumes now have complete galleries. I have also added two new simple costumes that I’ve worn this month: Bikini Louise and Saito Louise. Con season is starting to pick up! I’ve added SeishunCon to my convention schedule, and will also be attending another beach photoshoot within the next few weeks. Currently I’m working on a few different projects for summer events. Look forward to it~!!

• Happy (Almost) New Year!

  I’m on holiday break and happy to say that I have epic updates! Check out costumes, as they all have working pages and information available. The next step is to work on galleries for each, of course. Links have also been updated, so be sure to check out some other amazing cosplayers if you haven’t already.

  Anime South was wonderful. I ran the Zero no Tsukaima maid/cosplay cafe and an interactive Cosplay 101 panel. I did photoshoots for all 3 of my new costumes: Louise Maid, Taiga, and Tsumugi. Those should be online soon enough!

  2010 should bring some amazing things. I will be attending Metrocon, Dragon-Con, and Anime Weekend Atlanta for sure. I hope everyone has a fantastic New Year, and thanks so much for visiting my site!

  Hello, you’ve reached merucosplay.com, my cosplay website & online portfolio. Everything is still in the process of being uploaded ヾ(=^▽^=)ノ I plan to gradually add costume info, galleries, etc. to the site over the next several weeks.

  I’m also working on preparing things for my next convention, Anime South! This is my all-time favorite small con. I will be hosting the maid cafe (Zero no Tsukaima themed!) and Cosplay 101 panel. Costume-wise, I’m working on several projects at once and plan to bring…

  Louise (maid cafe version) – Zero no Tsukaima
  Taiga & Ryuuji – Toradora!
  Tsumugi (school uniform) – K-On!
  Maybe something else, not sure. ^_^;

  Anyway, I shall be adding the Links section to the site too. Please contact me if you’re interested in exchanging links!
