Gundam Seed Cosplay >> Lacus Clyne

Lacus Clyne (Rakusu Kurain) is a fictional character in the anime series Mobile Suit Gundam SEED and Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Destiny. He is a popular female vocalist and the leader of the Clyne Faction. He also is captain of the ship Eternal, along with Andrew Waltfeld. Lacus also selected as the most popular female characters as much as four times in Animage Anime Grand Prix, in 2002, 2004, 2005 and 2006. His name, "Lacus" means "lake" in Latin. In Gundam SEED, Lacus has the title "Pink Princess" and "The Songstress". In Gundam SEED Destiny, she is also known as "White Queen" by Gilbert Durandal, when he played chess with himself.

Gundam Seed: Lacus Clyne 04

Near the end of the Bloody Valentine War, Lacus leaves the PLANTs in a stolen support ship known as the Eternal. Hers, along with Orb Union's Kusanagi, and the Archangel, form the Three Ships Alliance, dedicating themsleves to stop the war. In the final battle, she tried to persuade both sides to stop fighting, but she unfortunately fails.

Lacus has been known to have the ability to go into SEED mode when she goes to battle. However, only her pupils become dilated, and no symbolic seed explosion has ever been seen.

Another cosplayer from this year's Comiket! Lacus is practically one of my most favorite characters in the series, but she became less prominent in the sequel, Gundam Seed Destiny. I do love this outfit of hers more than the original one. Great work!

Gundam Seed: Cagalli Yula Athha 03

Despite being an aristocrat and the Princess of the Orb Union, Cagalli Yula Athha is head strong and impulsive, which makes her take bold risks. She often does this for the greater good and not for herself, but her actions tend to be a little to risky, endangering the people around her.

While her twin, Kira Yamato, is a Coordinator (someone who has been genetically altered), Cagalli is a Natural. She is also the only known Natural who has the ability to go into SEED Mode.

Stunning cosplay! She definitely captures Cagalli's strong personality, which I prefer more than her passive one. Nice work!

Gundam Seed: Yzak Joule

Yzak Joule is one of the elite pilots of ZAFT in the series Gundam Seed and Gundam Seed Destiny. In Gundam Seed, he was under the command of Rau Le Creuset, leader of the prestigious ZAFT Le Creuset special operations team. He is very proud of his elite status, and considers Athrun Zala to be his primary rival.

This character may not be at the top of my favorite characters’ list, but it’s hard to deny how awesome this cosplay is. To explain why this cosplayer is covering his/her right eye, it’s because in the series, Kira Yamato gave him a scar in one of the battles they fought in. Technically, it’s on on his right eye, but above it, and across his face, but it makes sense to people who’ve seen the series.

Kelly Osbourne: Turning Japanese

An interesting video clip of Kelly Osbourne cosplaying Lacus Clyne from Gundam Seed… Her hair clip is on the wrong side but you pretty much know she’s doing Lacus anyway.

She doesn’t really do a good Lacus Clyne, but I’ll give her a ton of credit for doing something she has no idea what it’s about…

Enjoy the clip! Don’t mind the first 2 slides… I was just testing the video uploader thing in Sanriotown.

Gundam Seed: Natarle Badriguel

Natarle Badeiguel, one of the few survivors of ZAFT’s Le Creuset’s raid to seize the new weapons of the colony, is one of Earth Alliance’s most loyal and promising young officers. She is the executive officer of the Archangel, a ship headed by Captain Murrue Ramius. She is a superb tactical analyst, a fine trait that made her a captain of her own ship, Dominion, after her former captain began to question the Earth Alliance’s actions.

Natarle is one of my favorite character in the series. Most people don’t really like her because of her cold nature, but I believe that’s what makes her such a fine officer in the first place. Besides, I respect characters like her better than the Damsel in Distress types.

Sadly, she perished in Archangel’s hands because of her blind loyalty to the Earth Alliance.

Pretty accurate cosplayer though, isn’t she?
