Cosplayers at gamesweekberlin 2022

Maike Huster

I’ve been cosplaying since 2018 and have specialized in larger armor for the majority of the time. I like to experiment with different materials and try to learn something new with every new cosplay.

I have already participated in several cosplay contests and was in the jury several times.

Kohana Aneko

I’m Kohana and started cosplaying in 2017. It all started when I found cosplay videos randomly and knew: “I want to do this, too!”. As a child I tried out a lot, but cosplaying turned into a passion, which I’m not only pursuing privately, but also for my work. I love to try out new characters and to challenge myself from sewing to crafting.

LittleMissBlueberry

I’m LittleMissBlueberry and started cosplaying in 2014. Mainly anime and game characters. Most of my costumes are selfmade since I’m a fashion designer, I also do the wigstyling, make-up and crafting. I’m working as a tattoo artist near Stuttgart and do many anime or game related tattoos but also floral and dark art.
