Sound Horizon: Marchen

The main character of the fantasy symphonic rock band, Sound Horizon's 7th Story CD, Marchen tells the dark side of fairytales such as Hansel and Gretel, Snow White, and Sleeping Beauty. All the songs in the album contain the same identical verse arranged in different styles representing the similarities of the stories.

Cool cosplay! I need to get my hands on an album from this band to see what the hype is all about. Thanks again to Cherokee for sending this in!

Sound Horizon: Hortensia and Violette

Twins who are the exact opposites of one another, Hortensia and Violette were first featured in the album “Roman” by fantasy band, Sound Horizon. They represent day and night as well as life and death.

Aren’t they adorable? I wish I could read Japanese so that I’d know what’s written on the photograph though. Thanks to Timmy for sending this!

Sound Horizon: Violette and Hortensia 02

Violette and Hortensia refer to the flowers "violets" and "hortensia/hydrangea". However, the kanji pronunciation can also mean “death” and “life” which is also the symbolism behind the flowers. Hiver Laurent, the owner of the dolls, placed his moon tattoo on Violette as a sign of death and his sun tattoo on Hortensia as a sign of life.

Even though they’re not twins, they’re still very cute cosplayers from Comiket 2010. Thanks to Ingrid for sending this!
