So I wasn't the only one who caught that? I can see how they didn't get it, it's a pretty obscure reference.supersupersuperguy said:#23 isn't just some lolita chick; it's Patchouli Knowledge from Touhou! Look at the hair colour! The crescent head ornament! The bows! The colour scheme!
Well, kinda. The outfit's pretty different. Patchouli's regular outfit would not only be hard to make but extremely hot (as in temperature) and impractical; she usually spends her time in really thick and baggy pyjamas. However, the defining features are still there in the cosplay (crescent, colours, bows, etc).

What character is she from Guild Wars 2? The one in the picture, not your friend, I mean. We were trying to figure that one out for a long while.2xDouble said:Man, my friend PolarisNova is going to be mad when she sees someone ripped off her Guild Wars 2 cosplay... (#1)
Still, very well done.
Not any particular character (as far as I know), but that costume is the "Shining Blade" armor set: a signature high-level armor for Mesmers (also wearable by other light-armor wearers).Greg Tito said:What character is she from Guild Wars 2?

No problem! I'm a huge Touhou fanboy, so I though that I should share. Glad I could help!Greg Tito said:Thanks for the tip!

Yeah, Patchy in full costume would be amazing, but for now I'm just gonna be happy it's not a freakin' GUY in the outfit. If I see another dude dressed as Yukari or something I'm gonna brick someone.Stekepanne5 said:Anyway, I praise that girl for dressing up as my favourite Touhou character, though I wish she had spent some more time on her costume. A fully complete Patchouli costume would be awesome.

You should have seen the knight with an arrow in his knee. Hilarious.BehattedWanderer said:Zombie Dovahkiin? Nice. Always love seeing the creativity people mesh into a working costume.
