Cosplay Goddess

Alodia Gosiengfiao

Alodia Almira Arraiza Gosiengfiao (born March 9, 1988) is a Filipina cosplayer, model, artist, singer, and recording artist. As a celebrity endorser, she is one of the Ambassador and VJ For Animax-Asia known as the "Ani-mates"

Gosiengfiao became involved in cosplay after contacting other anime and video game enthusiasts in an internet fan forum called Animé Club. Encouraged by her friends from the forum, she started cosplaying in 2003 at the age of 15, joining various competitions in Metro Manila. Her first cosplayed character was a Priestess from Ragnarok Online at Ragnalaunch in Glorietta.

 She began to attract attention when she won 3rd place in the 2003 C3 Convention as Gun Mage Rikku of Final Fantasy X-2.

 This led to her and her younger sister Ashley Gosiengfiao being featured on the cover of Issue 14 of Culture Crash Magazine, a Manga Magazine in the Philippines.

 Since then, she cosplayed a series of characters from over 40 anime, movie and video game titles including Witchblade, G.I. Joe, K-On!, Paradise Kiss, Evangelion, Final Fantasy X-2. As a multi-awarded cosplayer, she is now being invited to appear at conventions or to judge competitions locally and abroad. She started judging at the age of 18.

 This is my favorite photo of her, she's cosplaying as Lina of DOTA2. The details of the costume was done by her. Cool ^_^

By making use of Crypton's software you can have your very own studio and your own idol to work with - all from the comfort of your home!

Saki Fujita

She was born in 1984 in Tokyo, Japan. In 2003 she was awarded in the contest VS Audition 2003 by Pony Canyon which established her career as a voice actress. Since then, she has built her fame in the industry, providing her voice for many animes and computer games. She provided high quality voice samples for VOCALOID2 Hatsune Miku.

Hatsune Miku: VOCALOID2

Her soft and clear voice caught the attention of Crypton and they adopted Saki for their second VOCALOID2 product, Miku. Crypton's actions created an instant hit, creating the widely-known VOCALOID trend. Saki Fujita provided a cute, high and clear voice for Hatsune Miku; a VOCALOID2 voicebank. Now Miku is widely recognized as the most famous and leading VOCALOID having appeared in concerts worldwide and animes.

Comparison between the Vocaloid and voice provider

Learning English: VOCALOID3

Saki once again reprises her role for the Miku append voicebanks. Now, Saki Fujita will take on a new challenge in Vocaloid; providing English-based voice samples as Miku, for the upcoming English voicebank of Hatsune Miku. Saki Fujita is learning English using an English learning program called "Engrish away!". "Engrish away!" aims to reduce the strength of a Japanese accent and is used by many Asian English learners worldwide. Due to problems with learning an American accent, she has been progressing slower in her voicebank than a native English speaker.
