Description
My friend Mei and I became big fans of the low budget sci-fi Japanese live action drama of manga series, Shibuya 15 (Sh15ya) a series about 15 year old street gang members who are trapped in a world they can't escape from and are being mysteriously murdered one by one. We decided it would just be a bit of fun to cosplay some of the main characters. Our friend Shinbios was convinced to join us as Tsuyoshi, the protagonist of the series, whilst Mei and I chose rival gang leaders Asagi and DJ. The photoshoot with Nic was so much fun. All of the clothes were thrifted and altered to match. It was a great little group.

I love DJ, he's a complete wannabe gangsta who picks fights he can't win, likes to make up stupid dance routines with his fellow gang members, sucks on chuppa chups all day and ends every sentence with "yo". I went through a whole pack of sour bubblegum chuppa chups during our shoot, my cheeks hurt a lot after that.

Hahaha, that is awesome! I love Sh15uya, never thought I'd catch people cosplaying from it though.

Never seen the drama, but this certainly looks like a great cosplay :3
