A gallery of cosplay featuring Evangelion’s fiery tsundere Asuka Langley Soryu, excellently portrayed by elite cosplayers Saya and Arisa Mizuhara.
You might also remember Saya, who provides the bulk of the photos here, from her excellent Sheryl Nome and Kallen cosplay galleries…
Asuka in her gothic lolita attire, made famous by an official illustration from Eva character designer Yoshiyuki Sadamoto…
The plugsuit has always been a problem to cosplay to perfection - the incredible tightness of the form-fitting design might just be too hard to pull off in reality, something the 2D original has a much easier time with…
Hopefully these images will help us Eva fans bide our time until the new movie, Evangelion: 2.0 You Can (Not) Advance is released this summer…
The cosplay images come to us via linkinstreet - seemingly a relentless pursuer of superlative cosplay who was kind enough to make a post on the Sankaku forums.
See the rest of the gallery (over 100 pictures!) at his blog.
Hmmmm, so what’s creepier? The freaky contacts? The overly upped white contrast? No, the creepiest part is seeing Asuka smile.
Fail, Kipi is far superior! I demand Kipi! :3
also Asuka = <3
Kipi should be coming soon (TM).
Not really. I skipped Kipi because she did the same cosplay as Arisa did.
I certainly think these pictures are legendary, but, agreeably, Kipi is legend.
not really. Go to CURE and you can find many more just like her. The reason that she’s well know (and also others like Arisa or Namada) is because of their good clothing sense, and rabid fans on many Japanese boards, some which spilled over to the english version
But then I have to register to look at the pictures. T_T
then register lol. CURE now has an english version as well IIRC
NO U. Arisa is better .. Kippi fail for her fang!
The cosplayer was hot, though Asuka is a Tsundere bitch
I don’t remember Asuka being so big (refering to 2D pics)
I would rather see Kipi cosplay Gendou than this, Asuka is probably the worst character ever.
Plugsuit is easy imo.. bodypaint
That would make this already winplay gallery even better :)
I like your green hair cosplay gal pic, could you share with us…source..?? Thx ..
OMFG.
Kill me this instant I found love >_<
Doesn’t look much like Asuka imo.
Japs trying to cosplay a german girl is about as bad as westerners trying to cosplay japanese characters. It just doesn’t work.
O’rly? Remember that her surname is Soryuu (惣流), and NOT as many think, Langley. Her mother was half Japanese, and only thing non asian about her looks was the strawberry blonde hair.
Ironically she is an American citizen
Here are two German Asukas for comparison from Animagic 2008 and Connichi 2008:

I’m not sure if these two pictures contain the same girl just in different costumes because they look very similar^^
I prefer these cosplays IMO
That plugsuit needs some major padding.. just looks strange like that… like a raincoat somehow haha
Asuka’s been one of my favorite characters since I was 13, so this is a welcome surprise. This is one of the better ones I’ve seen.
Welcome thermal expansion!
Elite? Elite failure, maybe. Pro-tip: the elderly should not try to cosplay a 14yo character.
Still, it is much better than seeing (middle-aged) men cosplaying female characters <.<
The artwork does not really potray her as 14y/o either
touche
Also, could we have your 14-year-old cosplayer folder on the forums please…
need to ask my friend for that. I go for mature ones :D
He usually have all these 3D loli pictars
Love the cosplay but I disagree with the materials made to conjure up a plug suit.
only like the 2nd chick and the art.
First pics look too white IMO… ok, I know that’s what they can do to resemble the skin smoothness of an anime character but, oh c’mon! That looks SO FAKE. Also, German cosplayers look nice, but this one owns.
I think the lesson here is that if you photoshop your pictures you’d better be good at it.
mmmh Kipi http://www.kipi-fan.com/index.php?page=gall&pic=18
I approve :)
*Puts stamp of approval*
lol, the way her hip curve looks a *little* off. Photoshop failure maybe D:
My god Arisa is LOVE, i’ve used a picture of her cosplaying Aru from demonbane for god knows how long
yeah. that one has been my wallpaper for quite a while now.
is that a nip slip? please confirm…. I can’t distinguish it properly

nah, she usually wear something inside her clothes if it’s loose fitting on the top. In fact, all (established) cosplayers does.
Why, in the last set of cosplayer pictures (before the 2d pics), is the chick cosplaying not Asuka, but Asuka dressed up as Kemeko? One of the 2d pics has Asuka as Kemeko, too…
Weird…
^_^
Needs more Kipi
No Elite without Kipi
I must hit it des…
Apart from the plug suit at the end, damn awesome
Cosplay as a form of therapy (snigger)
shes not too convincing as asuka
now all she needs is shinji so they can re-enact that fapping scene from the movie…
She does not look even like asuka.Her face look more to me like taiwanese singer Rainie Yang.
I doubt any cosplayer can look LIKE the characther they cosplay. They can only do so much, like the costume. For the face, unless they do plastic surgery, that’s pretty much it.
For me they are good looking and the costumes are good
