Muskblog: Homesteading the Internet since 1995

While I was trying to study, someone on Facebook posted a picture of what I thought was their friend dress as Chun Li from the video game Street Fighter 2. Turns out it was Yaya Han who appears to have made a career out of creating costumes and dressing up as characters from video games, comics, and movies. 

I’ve never been ‘in’ the cosplay scene, but I have lived in Japan, collected comics, played video games, and of course dressed up on Halloween as comic book characters. So given all that I wanted to repost the pictures, but I just didn’t have the time or didn’t want to take the time prior to my exam. I’m perfectly capable of wasting time I just try to be selective. Plus this allowed me to use my 健美 blog post category.

Over the last few days more pictures have been posted by Ms. Han or her fans on Facebook. She also has a personal website, which may give grief to Opera… Maybe if Facebook buys Opera people will actually care when their website gives Opera grief. 

Given people still read the two previous posts I made about Chun Li (1, 2), she is still among the most popular female video game characters. She was in Tatsunoko Vs Capcom, but my fight stick is in storage, that game isn’t much of a challenge without using a proper controller.

Ms. Han and her fans post plenty of pictures, you can tell you’re coworkers you’re looking at them to admire the stitching on the costume…

Update

Yaya Han appeared in this costume on the television show “King of the Nerds”, it was apparently their cosplay episode.
