The Cosplay Teahouse

Welcome to the Teahouse, honored guests...

                                            Irashaimasen!


 Welcome to the Cosplay Teahouse!

I'm Lady Tenkage- also known as Tenkage-chan on Cosplay.com. I'm a cosplayer based out of Colorado, and this is my personal website. Here, you can find pictures of all my cosplays, details on how they were made, my current projects, and what my plans are for the future. You can find which cons I attend, reviews on anime and games I like, and stories about my random misadventures!

                          A Quick Introduction to the Site

To help newcomers navigate through my website, I've added here a short review of each section, and what it contains.

 

Welcome to The Teahouse: The main page of the site welcomes everyone who visits. It provides a brief summary of whay the site contains, and a description of myself.

Cosplay Gallery: This section of the website houses pictures of all my cosplays. Each gallery has pictures, and a description of the costume in question, as well as details to how I made it.

Cosplay Diaries: A blog of sorts, which I rarely update. I do post in it, on rare occaisions. Very rare, that is. Most importantly, though, I use it for progress reports of the costumes I'm currently making.

Upcoming Events: A calender showing all the conventions and events I will be attending.

In the Making: A review of all my current cosplay projects, and how I felt about them, after their completion. It also has my cosplay wish list.

The Samurai Review: Here, you will find my reviews of various anime, video games, manga, and novels! Some good, some bad, but always fun!

Media: This section of my site houses links to all the various media I have pertaining to my hobbies- this includes Youtube videos of the skits I've done, and links t the radioplays I'm a part of- and whatever else is added, in the future!

Writing: The section contains links to the various fanfictions and stories I've writen or will write. Currently, the only story available is Gundam Wing: After Era. More will be added, as I finish them.

Tenkage's Friends: Members of my site!

The Teahouse Forums: A place to chat! About cosplay, anime, and life! There's also forums for the Shinsengumi cosplay group, web-based RP-ing, and for my VA projects!

The Shinsengumi: The Shinsengumi is a cosplay group I'm currently forming. Here, you will find a brief description of the group, and what you need to join! Still under development.

Links: Pretty self-explanatory. Click here for all the places I think you should check out! Sure to grow!

 

 

                          Who is "Lady Tenkage" ?

 
"Lady Tenkage" is the name I go by online, derived from an original character of mine I created long ago. And, if you couldn't tell from the above pic, I'm a total ninja geek. Buuuut, we'll get more into that, later.
 
As I mentioned before, I'm a cosplayer from Fairplay, Colorado. And for those who don't know, Fairplay is better known as... South Park!
Yep. That's right. South Park is an actual place. Although, in our case, "South Park" actually refers to Park County. However, as I'm not a fan of the show, I'd just like to say the following:
 
"No, I don't know Cartman, there is no Kenny or Hanky the Poo, and if you ask me about it, I will promptly bap you upside the head."
 
 I started cosplaying back in 2003. It was at Anime Expo, and my very first costume was none other than Azumi Kiribayashi, from Real Bout High School. Suffice to say, it didn't take much for me to get addicted to it, especially if you consider all the years that I've been attending the Colorado Rennaissance Festival.
 
 Of course, cosplay and anime isn't all that I enjoy. I of course love to play video games- primarily RPGs and Action-Adventure games. I also rather like fighting games, though I'm admittedly terrible at them. I'm not too partial to shooters, though- with a very few third-person shooters being the exception. I also don't really like racing games, and Mario Kart is the only exception to that. But I absolutely don't like sports games. Nothing against them, they just aren't fun for me.
 
I of course just love attending conventions. I try to attend 2 a year, one being NDK, and the other so far is AX.  After I won a Wii at AX 2008, I just had to go back!
 
My other side hobbies include online forum RPs, writing fantasy stories and fanfictions, drawing fanart (though I've admittedly retired from that), reading fantasy novels (my favorite authors are R.A. Salvatore and David Eddings), and some mild amateur voice-acting. My most recognizable bit would be "Sakura's Admirer", a radioplay on Youtube, where I play the role of Haruno Sakura. I also do the voice of Rosa in the Final Fantasy IV Radioplay. More on that in my Media page.
 
In any case, thanks for dropping by my page! Feel free to look around at my various pages, and feel free to leave a comment! Interested in the same series? Making a similar cosplay? Going to the same con! Let me know, and maybe we can meet up!
 
Ja Mata Ne!
