So, my friends...

Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica. <3
A short series as an anime(also, a great manga), but some incredible characters/costumes/lessons learned!


Like...Do not contract your life with a weird creature that perpetually smiles at you...and eats its own corpse.


Any magical girls attending Anime Central 2013?

Homura Akemi? Madoka Kaname? Sayaka Miki? Mami Tomoe? Kyoko Sakura?

Any witches attending?


<3


Don't forget your Soul Gems. Srsly. Bad news.

[Noiz]

I have a friend (she doesn't have a forums account) who is going as Mami. :3

[YasuiGetups]

I miiigghhhtt have a Kyoko for you...

[MeltedGeneral]

You forgot magical guys and it just happens that this particular person is a male Madoka. Oh and possibly my friends as genderswaps since ACen is at a better time for them.

[Suika]

I may be going as Sayaka and if I do I don't know if I want to go in her magic girl form or her school uniform. Anyone else going in their school uniform attire?

[YasuiGetups]

Okay, I have officially been conscripted to go as Kyubey. I will be carrying a notebook to take down "contracts" with any potential Mahoushojous-in-the-making!
This'll be fun!

[Suika]

I'm doing a special cosplay for Sayaka (it's a surprise), but I was thinking if of something fun we could do.

If I could get ONE of each of the following
- Mami
- Kyoko
- Homura

I was thinking the four of us (I being Sayaka) could dress in white dresses sort of like angels. Maybe with a small accent of their color in some way.

- Then ONE Goddess Madoka

I dunno i think it'd make a sweet gentle photoshot?

Just a thought. Would anyone be interested?

[Siren_N0el]

That sounds so beautiful!!!!! <3

[jamboreejess]

I will be Madoka for a day or two

[gaogaoemisaurus]

I'm going as Homura! I'll have a Madoka and a Mami with me.

[Suika]

Would anyone that's posted they will be cosplaying as Mami Homura or Kyoko be interested in my white angelish idea. If we can't find a goddess Madoka we could just do everyone in white without madoka being a goddess.

Please let me know.

Kinda off topic (Hope not) but the Madoka Magica movie will be playing at Chicago next month!

Yep! Anyone else planning on going to that? I know I am

I want to go! But since I live with a bunch of people who dislike anime, I would have to find a way to let me go. OTL. But I was planning on cosplaying if that is allowed...? Dressing up at a movie theater. (I hope)

hmmm I would err on the side of caution and say I wouldn't cosplay for this. Considering what happened in Colorado over the summer, people are very cautious of this kind of stuff. Ruins it for those of us that do it for love but it's a messed up world we live in.

Sigh... TT_TT I do agree. Everything we love to do, there will always be something that takes it away from us.

Isn't that the truth? Still, I still plan to attend and enjoy every minute of that movie

I bought my ticket the day it was announced. Good thing I did because the show is apparently sold out.

I think it should still be okay as long as you're not wearing a mask or have any prop. Wasn't it just AMC cinemas? Besides.. people still dress up as characters from "The Room" during midnight screenings at The Music Box.

I'll be cosplaying Madoka two days, probably (Magical girl and school uniform) haven't picked the days yet though.

edit* just realized I already posted here in September.
DERP!
lol.

Also, I went to the Madoka premiere at the music box cosplaying Madoka :3

I am lame and cannot remember the name of the person here who brought up the idea of cosplaying as the girls in white flowy dresses and possibly angel wings?

That idea was brilliant and I very well may be doing it. I have a Homura Akemi, Mami, and possbly Kyoko. Do I have a Madoka and Sayaka for this adorable idea???

<3

[Audri]

I just saw the show a few weeks ago and fell head over heels in love with it. I'm pondering doing a Madoka cosplay but Im having a hard time deciding on what. I think it would be fun to cosplay big "worm" shaped Charlotte or Mami herself.

Oh and Kyubey, Im looking for you! I got a contract that needs to be made and I guarentee to make it worth your trouble!

Charlotte would be an interesting cosplay, and you'd get to eat Mamis! I'd go for it- and hey, even witches can still have wishes, right?

Just don't be making contracts with any black cats, a'right? I've got a quota to meet! Stupid Jyuubey...

Charlotte would be a ton of fun, but Im not sure how I would go about doing it. My thought was getting a lot of pink poke-a-dot fabric with a black background and doing most of my body, then somehow making Charlotte's face above my head where I could see out the mouth or something along those lines... If anyone has seen anything in there cosplay website travels where Charlotte's been done, please let me know

[Siren_N0el]

Suika!

Amazing idea. Yes! I am in for that.
We would just need a Madoka!

What dress were you thinking of wearing? What kind?

Oh and for those looking into cosplaying Charlotte, there are people out there who came up with cosplays and ideas and sketches for her! Also, ebay sells full Charlotte cosplays that you can purchase, or look through and make costumes of your own!

Search google or ebay for Charlotte Madoka Cosplay.

Essentially, Use a Madoka wig. Pink with the side ponytails. style and fluff them up to look like a candy wrapper. with the sides sticking out a bit. Scarf and hat (the hat style is similar to a small chef's hat, or a poofy french beret) are matching fabric with polka dots. She wears a cute cloak/cape over what looks to be a light colored dress vest and bloomers or a skirt. a very very long sleeve shirt is under the vest. usually brown fabric. Long sleeves that hang down in an over-sized kind of way. The design is similar to Hsien-Ko from Dark Stalkers. Then dark tights, or knee to thigh high socks and any kind of shoes. Perhaps leather oxfords, saddle shoes, or loafers. Most Charlotte cosplayers so far carry around a plushie version of Charlotte or Charlottes big witch/worm form. Or they carry around candy or cheese. Poor Charlotte is mad because she cannot have cheese.

I was going to use my Shiro Lolita dress. http://i8.photobucke...3693/mokona.jpg (Just the dress though not anything else xD, this is from an old cosplay) I was thinking of putting a blue ribbon around the waist or something like that.

[roserosered08]
