Back again with another phenomenal cosplay interview here on Robot Punch! Lindze Merritt joins me this episode, sharing her thoughts and experiences about cosplay and more.
You’ve most likely seen her from her unforgettable Morrigan and Baroness photo series. As you’ll find, there are other places that you may have seen Lindze’s work, whether you’ve recognized her or not…
Rape games have been banned in Japan! No, wait… They haven’t. Oh, oh! Yes! Yes, they’re banned. SRSLY
The ripples from Amazon banning the violent rape simulation game, RapeLay, continue to roll, leading to a radical change in Japanese politics. In this week’s Robot Punch!, we’ll go over play-by-play this revolutionary change in the eroge industry and what these decisions say about our cultural attitude toward these controversial games.
Back with more cosplay fun, Robot Punch! returns with another interview with one of cosplay’s hottest icons. This round, we speak with Yaya Han, a professional cosplayer, model, and fashion designer.
For nearly a decade, Yaya has travelled to conventions all over the world, adorned in some of the most intricate costumes ever designed. Yaya was able to spare some time from her busy schedule to share with us some insight to the brains behind the beauty.

Have you ever played a porn game? No, of course you haven’t. Neither have I. And if I ever did, it would have been purely for research purposes.

Cosplay (short for “costume play”) is the art of dressing up in costume as popular fictional characters, most commonly from anime or video games. If you’ve been to any website or message board that discusses cosplay, there is one person whose photos you’re guaranteed to find: Omi Gibson.

Some video game vixens can give a man the extra fuel needed to carry him through his dreams. It’s all well and good…until you read the game’s manual. One look at the character’s profile and suddenly you’re not so sure of yourself. (Not that there’s anything wrong with that.) Here are some classic video game trannies that may have fooled you.
The best things in life are free, so the saying goes. But the premium content, the stuff like significant others and video games, cost money like magic spells cost mana. So if you want the best of anything you better be prepared to shell out some coin or, if you live in Hyrule, rupees.
