Jun Kurosu Persona 2 — Cosplay by: Lin Media: Video Game Debut: 2014 Status: Active

Persona 2 makes me want to lie down and cry, which means it’s probably on my cosplay bucket list of 90’s golden era PSX JRPGs and I like it a whole lot.

Heather and I have been talking about a Persona 2 group since the dawn of video game time, and we were gonna make it happen or die trying. I love these stupid games so much, and it killed me that I haven’t been able to pull it off yet because I spent the last billion years of my life trying to (unsuccesfully) do Eikichi Mishima’s dumb wig instead. So when she mentioned that a few of her buddies were getting a group together for Katsucon, I whispered hell yea to the heavens and ironed creases into my pretty boy antagonist bestie pants and switched to Jun Kurosu.

Needless to say, a huge heartshaped thank you to all my cosplay buddies who welcomed me into this group: Sew Crunk Cosplay, Ukraine Kraine, Rin, Leesers, and Heather & Nate @ zhobot  — it means a lot to me that this finally happened, and I only wish we could have had more time on The Other Side together!!

…. did I part my hair on the wrong side? Of course I did.
