Description
In your life
There will be many hardships,
Many times when you feel as though you don’t have the strength to continue
But my hand will always be there for you to reach out and grasp
I will give you my strength
Although I am no longer with you

So take my hand






Genkai 幻海 (Yu Yu Hakusho)



Costume : Me
Makeup : Myself and *cescat
Wig : ~Midgiee and ~Jesshime
Photography *cescat
Editing by *cescat


This is a extremely special cosplay and photo for me.
I want go to in-depth into detail here but it is dedicated to a beloved person who passed away several years ago today, Genkai from Yu Yu Hakusho always strongly reminded me of her, both in the strength and determination and the true caring, love and selflessness...and offcourse the quick wit and strong sense of sarcasm.
So this cosplay and photo shoot is dedicated to this person, whom although is no longer around, is provding me so much strength in life.

I have a few very big thank you, without the help of very good friends this cosplay wouldn’t have been as good and important as what it is.
Offcourse*cescat for the photography, I am so touched that you were willing to take this photos for me, and beyond that you understood why it was so important to me and worked really hard for my sake, I honestly would not have been as thrilled if it had been anyone else but you taking this photos for me, it really means the world to me.
A big thank you to the lovely ~Midgiee and ~Jesshime , your girls were saviours, real cosplay heros xpp bringing hairspray and styling my wig, as well bringing drinks and skittles, not to mention onto my hand to keep me stable whenever anyone walked on the bridge when I was balancing on the rail.

For this particular shoot I wanted to do the hand reaching out, when Genkai died in the series, it was really upsetting, but I got the feeling that she would still be reaching out and helping everyone by lending her strength and support, for me I feel the same with my above mentioned person.
Although people are gone, it doesn’t mean they are no longer supporting you, you just need to remember their face, their words and all the strength they had in life then you can remember how much the loved you, and there is no better support.
So that is the emotion I wanted to come through in this particular picture
