SubscribeAlthough my childhood memories are primarily punctuated by cartoons like Batman: The Animated Series, DuckTales, and Disney’s Gargoyles, I was exposed to a handful of anime in my youth. One offering in particular – Studio Ghibli’s Princess Mononoke – resonated with me for years to come. To some degree it retains a special place because it was one of my first forays into the world of Japanese animation, but it additionally warrants fond recollection for a powerful story and moving performances. When I was invited to Katsucon 2012 as a cosplay guest – a massive honor and an amazing experience – it only seemed natural to take on San’s deceptively simple garb from the Ghibli film.

Game Informer Issue #213: Tomb Raider
I know. I’m really late to the party. But I have a good excuse! My dedication to updating gameinformer.com with quality Tomb Raider content has kept me away from my blog!! That’s an adequate reason. Right?
