Cosplay
Alodia Gosiengfiao frequents anime and video game conventions, whether it is to attend the convention or join in cosplay competitions. Her popularity began in 2003 when she won in an event called the C3 Convention in 2003 as Gun Mage Rikku of FFX-2.[2] This led to her and her sister Ashley being featured on the cover of Issue 14 of Culture Crash Magazine[1], which was also incidentally the iconic Magazine's last issue.
Alodia was Animax's first ever Levi's Kawaii girl winner in the last episode of Mad Mad Fun, which was announced on air on November 29th, 2007.[3] Since then, she has continued to cosplay various characters from different anime and videogames.

"We just started cosplaying late last year, around September, says Alodia. "We planned to cosplay last summer, Ashley as Yuna and me as Lulu, but we went to the states for vacation so it didn't push through.... The sisters admit that they had a bit of stage fright at the C3 Con, but were encouraged when the crowd cheered them on. "I felt nervous at first, but when I got the feel of it, I really thought it was fun," says Ashley. The two are planning to cosplay other characters in future events, but intend to keep their plans secret... for now.”
