What up guys, it’s (chiha voice) magical girl Monday.
There’s something so heartrendingly vast and beautiful and good about Macross Frontier that will always call me home, space home, and when a friend is like, hey photos?? I’m always, heck yeah photos. So, thank you Bryan Lee Cruz Photography for taking the time on a gorgeous morning during this past Katsucon to set me against a sky so big and bright and blue it makes me feel like crying, like stupid baby princess Alto tears crying, which is possibly the most relevant kind of crying possible.

We’re back from our double feature show of Katsucon and MAGfest with stories to tell and incriminating photos to share! (Don’t worry, it’s only the fun kind of incriminating.) In the meanwhile, have a few snapshots of Lin’s various space dates and sports anime hell from Katsucon while we land back on our unsteady, post-con feet.
Space Date #1: Lin as Uranus, Abby as Neptune
MAKI-CHAN!!!!! (with Ana)
Lin being Toudou, constantly (photo by Chiha)
Space Date #4? Let’s call it #4
Fire crashed Space Date #2, but we’ll make it (Lin as Ranka, Abby as Sheryl)
So just how many Macross Frontier costumes are you planning to make.
I don’t know.
How many are there.
(There’s a lot.)

Macross Frontier is the series that completes me.
I still have so many feelings about this show that I can’t articulate so I’ll just funnel them all into elaborate stage concert combat outfits ha ha ha and here we are. This particular orange number is from the Macross F Music Clip Collection and continues the dubious tradition of a new outfit for every Katsucon — afterall, the upcoming blue-ray release has only added to the potential lineup, and we’re happy to oblige.
To my dismay, running out of time means it’s not quite as polished as it should be, but that just means a little bit more time and my Sheryl Nome and I can debut these properly!!

Want more Macross Frontier cosplay? We sent off Alto Saotome into battle for one last time in Sheryl and Ranka’s Sayonara no Tsubasa finale stage combat outfits at last year’s Katsucon!
