I enjoyed reading the manga then watching the anime for this series., so naturally, I wanted to cosplay one of these tough blonde beauties!

I wore this to Comic Con San Diego in 2017!

Fun facts:

  • I made this entire outfit in less than 2 weeks!

  • I used insulation foam to form the sword, then heated Wonderflex on top. I did NOT like working with Wonderflex tbh haha!

  • I sewed my top! Was tricky to get the pointed end to look right because I am not a pro at sewing.

  • At Comic Con SD, the weapons check people made me tie my sword to my body. They said that was the only way I was going to be allowed into the hall. So, I let them use a zip tie to my belt. When I went outside, I was able to take it off and hold my sword better!
