Description I don't know if it is just me, but I kind of look angry in this picture when I originally was trying to go for an emotionless look XD ohhh welll~

I made the Yukata from a Kimono pattern and just altered a little. It is from a lightweight cotton, which when I go it I thought about how convenient a non-hot costume would be in AZ, but not so much in cold San Jose, CA XD. SO COLD

The obi isn't actually tied like a traditional obi. To save time putting the costume on and me trying to learn how to tie an obi without it looking derp, I made it so the bow is sewed on to the obi and I just Velcro then ends together around my body.

The flower piece of from craftfoam.

The splotches in the hair is actually paint. I wanted to make sure I had the hair splotches without it looking weird and mentioned a good technique on putting splotches in the hair!

I hope to get a photoshoot of this cosplay

I also plan for Anime Expo to make the claws XD If I have time XD!

Ah, I saw you disappear into a crowd, and spent the rest of the day searching for you!

My friend and I were Shichika (Friend) and Nanami (The eps. 4 outfit)

I wish we could have met up with you!

Great job! It's always nice to see a Katanagatari cosplay. I love that series ^_^. I'll be at AX this year so maybe a small photo session can be arranged

Thank you for taking the picture! XD!

and Certainly! I'm going to AX and I am bringing Nanami with me. I'll be sure to connect with you a week before the con (or sooner) when I figure out which cosplays I am going to wear on what days and so on. XD

Very nice work! Nanami is such an interesting character. It always makes me happy to see people cosplaying her, especially when it's done this well
