Cosplay is Costume Play and if you've ever been to a con or just been a geek on the Internet then you've likely seen your fair share of them. We thought we would honor some of the great ones today. These lovely ladies don't just look good but can alsoput together some great costumes that really capture their characters!
Pee-Wee's Big Holiday Is Adding A Little True Blood To The Cast
1. Magikarp (Pokemon)
Ever played Pokemon and run into that kid whose father gave him a magikarp and then thought, "Your dad didn't love you that much." Well if it was Lisa Lou Who, you might rethink that.

2. Ibuki (Street Fighter)
This take on Ibuki was well thought out and nicely executed right down to the spiky hair. The cosplayer is Rincos.

3. Witchblade (Witchblade)
This is not an easy costume to pull off and it takes a lot of guts which this cosplayer, Jacqueline Goehner, has in spades. She brings the comic vixen to life.

4. Sailor Neptune (Sailor Moon)
No list of cosplayers is complete without at least one Sailor Moon cosplay. Although this one isn't as titillating as some of the others on our list, this well put together costume really captures the look and feel of the popular show. Plus 10 for Sakura blossoms. The cosplayer is Arc De Angel.

5. Asuka Langley Sohryu (Evangelion)
One of the most recognizable anime figures is Asuka from Evangelion. Her red Plugsuit matches her hair and personality. Crystal Graziano embodies every inch of her in this cosplay outfit.

6. Darth Vader (Star Wars)
This gender swapped Darth Vader is pretty rad. Unfortunately we don't have any information on the woman behind the mask. However, she clearly makes us all want to go to the Dark Side.

7. Baroness (G. I. Joe)
Whether you realize it or not, Baroness was your first crush. I mean, loving her marked you as a traitor, but it was totally worth it. Chicks with glasses can be hot too. This outfit was made and modeled by Yaya Han.

8. Supergirl (Supergirl)
This costume is really well done. Usually Powergirl gets all the cosplay love, so it's refreshing to see the real (?) world version of Supergirl get some attention too. Megan Coffey's version is sweet but with a touch of Justice.
