Character: Miaka Yuki
Series: Fushigi Yuugi- The Mysterious Play
Outfit: school uniform
Competition: YaoiCon 2010
Award: Wildcard
Fushigi Yuugi has been a fave of mine since I watched it on VHS in the 90s. Miaka was the first cosplay where I fully styled my own wig. I pulled a straight wig up into pigtails and wound the hair into buns with hairnets to keep everything in place. I also decorated a cat plushie to be Tama-neko to go with me.
I ended up destroying the cosplay in typical Miaka fashion by spilling grape soda on it.
Competition info
There was a certain amusement of cosplaying a shoujo anime lead at a BL convention. Our skit was Miaka and Yui on Jerry Springer about the scandals of their Seishi dating and not paying attention to them (and also fighting over Tamahome). The skit won Wildcard, which is basically “Whatever this is, we like it!” for YaoiCon.
