Description
Wow, surprise! Space Paranoids Riku!There's just one pic of this costume here on DA ( [link] ) and I always wanted to show you more, but I just had one little shooting with it and I never had the right location. And there's no good pic without a good location. As you might imagine, it's terribly hard to find an at least decent background for the Tron world.
The pattern on the front appears to be broken. That's due to a rising chest part which you can't see here.
The costume was hell to make. I had help from *Evil-Uke-Sora , but most of her and my Tron costumes were my doing. The blue parts glow in the dark and there are lights in the rear parts of the helmet. We made the outfits in spring 2006, when almost no one already knew KHII and Sora's forms. So it's no wonder that not many people recognized it at a convention we wore it for XD That surely may be different now. I hope I can present you a shooting in a not-so-far future, it was just too much work to rot in the closet.

*Evil-Uke-Sora is recovering slowly, but she's awfully in pain and I'm sure it will take a while until she's fully herself again. I was looking forward to my birthday a lot, but now I don't think it will be half as cool as it could be, but sometimes life has to fuck you, it seems.
My nerves have come down to nothing somewhere between yesterday and this morning, the last weeks were just too much. I don't have any more strength left, I just feel like shit, but university doesn't wait, a new musical has to be done, I'm awfully stressed by some personal things, I'm still trying to get a traineeship and I have to take care of my dear, she's more important now. Her parents are here, too, and I don't have a lot time for myself. I really need something good now, I really do. There was not a single easy thing since the accident. At the moment, I'm feeling like an empty bottle, but I have to go on with things.
It sucks. I had to get that out of my system.

I hope your love will heal fast and things will be back to normal before you know it~! Just make sure to stay by her side and let her know everything will be alright with your arms wrapped around her. n_n
You need to take a break! You have that right and it's up to YOU to get what you deserve and fight for that break! It may be hard and seem impossible, but there's always a way to get past the impossible! Just try your best and I hope you can get a nice break from everything, spending your time with your sweetheart!
Anyway, your outfit is amazing! I love it more than Sora's tron world outfit thingy.. XD

This is a great photo. I love all your cosplays, I think they're wonderful.
Please hang in there. I can't say I know what you're going through, because I don't, I've never been in a situation as tough as yours. But I hope that you can stay strong, and if things get too hard, sit back, breathe. I wish I could help more, give you better advice, but just know that there are people out there thinking of you, praying for you.

You're so amazing! I love all of your costumes... I'm such a huge fan of yours... I really hope your girlfriend gets better soon.... I don't like hearing that you're so miserable right now... if I lived in Germany near you, I'd come over right away and give you a big hug, and bring a bunch of roses for you and Sora-chan!! *huggles*

nice job with the space paranoids costume!
And I wish the very best for two --- things might seem hard now (believe me, my life feels pretty crappy right now as well --- school sucks for everyone), but it will all be better soon as long as you have each other, that's more than anyone could ever ask for

I'm sure you've probably heard this but I figured I'd tell you anyway. Kingdom Hearts Re: Chain of Memories is gonna get released in English dub and sub! You're probably more partial to German as it IS your native tongue but I'll try and cheer you up any and every way I can!
Life is hard for everyone right now no matter who or where you are. My family is going through a very crappy financial time and it's upsetting. But I know that stopping and wallowing in my self-pity won't help anything, so I keep my chin up and take each day as it comes, knowing that I'll wake up to a better tomorrow. Just keep your chin up and stay smiling and I'm sure things will work out for the better.
Please send *Evil-Uke-Sora my biggest Get Well wishes! And I send you my biggest hugs.
Great pic, btw! Hahaha, I give you this big, encouraging talk and don't even comment on your pic. It looks pretty sick. I like the variety you do; it keeps things interesting.

Oh, Koji, you just have to find strength in you! It's very difficult. sometimes I feel broken too, but then I realise that I just mustn't give up, because a lot depends on me. Sora needs you, your troupe needs you and Sora's parents (I'm sure) look at you to see this strength and support in YOU. I'm sure this hard time will end and as Sora wrote in her journal, soon she'll be "jump around soon again". I wish you and Sora good luck! You two are always in my mind.

What an amazing outfit! This is just so cool, I can't wait to see more of it. ^^
I'm sorry to hear about the state of things. I have to say that I've been impressed with your resilience despite all of the crap that seems to have been thrown at you. I think you're a very strong person. *Evil-Uke-Sora is so lucky to have you by her side through all of this. Please give her my best wishes.
I really hope things go well for your birthday anyway. I'm working on your present now, so you'll probably be seeing it within the week. ^^ You deserve a good celebration, at least (okay, that's a lie- you deserve a FANTASTIC celebrationXD). I hope you start feeling better soon. You have my support.^^

Ooh, I'd love to see a shot of this in the dark. And I'm sorry life's getting you down at the moment. But you know, every cloud has a silver lining, so I'm sure things will start to get better soon. Take care of Sora, but don't forget to take care of yourself too hun. ^^

stay strong and take care of yourself too - things will get better and calmer with time. it is hectic now, but you have to take what life gives you and do the best that you can. that's all you can do - give your best. and that's good enough.
thanks for keeping us updated, and for the new picture!
