As some of you might remember, back in July this year I wrote about Juby Headshot’s super awesome Angel (“The King of Fighters”) cosplay. Well, I got so impressed by Juby ‘s cosplays that I decided to reach out to Juby for an interview =) And luckily enough for me and you; Juby agreed to my interview request. So we talked about everything from cosplay, Gaming, video games to lewd content. So without further ado, please enjoy our interview with Juby 😉

Robin TGG

We’re going to start of this interview by letting you introduce yourself to our readers. So, please go ahead and do so 😉



Juby

Hii!!! I’m Juby Headshot a cosplayer from Spain, who loves anime, manga, games and caffe latte.

Robin TGG

How did you get involved with cosplay? (when, where and why) And for how long have you cosplayed? I would also like to know where you got your name from? =) (Juby Headshot).

Juby

Since I was a child, I have been very interested in Japanese Culture, and I always wanted to make a cosplay. Finally, four years ago I did my first cosplay. Poison from Final Fight and Street Fighter, and I couldn’t stop doing more and more cosplays! My cosplayer name includes how my friends call me “Juby” and the term “Headshot” because I’m in love with Caitlyn (League of Legends).

Robin TGG

I have seen tons of cosplays of Angel (“The King of Fighters”) in the past, so it’s nothing new to me. However, when I spotted your cosplay of Angel, I just got blown away how much you look like her. Simply put, you managed to nail down that cosplay like a boss. That’s also why I would like to ask you how that cosplay came to be? And are you a fan of Angel and KOF in general?

Juby

When I was a child, I spend a lot of hours playing KOF, and I have a special feeling for this game’s characters. I really love all their designs! Angel it’s one of my favorite characters, and I couldn’t resist making her costume!

Robin TGG

Since you are from Spain, I’m curious to know what the cosplay scene is like in your home country? I would also like to ask if you have been to many cosplay and Gaming events outside of Spain?



Juby

In Spain, the cosplay community is growing more and more! And there are a lot of talented cosplayers! About going to cons outside Spain, I have only gone to Gamescom 2014 by now, but I hope I can go to more events outside of Spain soon!

Robin TGG

What’s your favorite cosplay so far? And why? And is there any cosplayers that you look up to? If so, who?

Juby

Mmm… It’s difficult to choose a favorite cosplay, but now I think that It’s Angel. The costume wasn’t very difficult, but I made my best in the details. It’s comfortable and I really feel into the character when I cosplay her.

Robin TGG

Which cosplay has taken you the most time to complete?

Juby

That’s easy! Elementalist Lux: Dark from League of Legends.

Robin TGG

Based on your past cosplays I take it that you’re a fan of both video games and anime? So which anime’s and video games do you like the most?

Juby

In anime case, my favorites are Bakemonogatari series, My Hero Academia, Inu Yasha, Baka to Test, Shingeki no Bahamunt and Sailor moon. And about videogames, my favorites are all the KOF saga, Twinkle Star Sprites, Overwatch, Tera, Fire Emblem: Awakening and League of Legends.

Robin TGG

Would it be alright for me to ask for your height, weight and measurements? The reason why I ask this is because I bet that you are very close to Angel’s weight, height and measurements.

Juby

OMG! We have the same Birthday XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD My height is 169’5cm my weight it’s also “Write it down, and you die!” as her and the measurements are very veeery close to what the wikia says.

Robin TGG

Have you always been super confident when it comes to doing more lewd-like cosplays? And which kind of cosplays do you prefer to do? (Safe for work Vs Not safe for work cosplays).

Juby

I think I’m shier than most people could imagine when they see my pictures. When I cosplay I don’t think like I’m acting like myself, I’m modeling or performing the character I’m cosplaying at the moment and still now, I feel embarrassed sometimes. About my preferences, I usually prefer the sexy characters, but I don’t think about if it’s NSFW or SFW.

Robin TGG

Is there any limits to what you will cosplay as? I mean, have you ever felt like “maybe my cosplay turned out to be a little too lewd?” and then you changed your mind about the said cosplay? Or perhaps you go by the “everything goes” rule? (if you like it, then you do it no matter what other people might think of it).

Juby

Well…I never thought about if my cosplay turned out too lewd because I don’t think so. In my opinion, everything goes, and it’s good if you are having fun and enjoying what you do.

Robin TGG

What games have you enjoyed the most so far this year? And which games are you looking forward to play? (2017 and 2018).

Juby

Nowadays, I’m very busy with cosplay and I only play Fire Emblem And Overwatch.

Robin TGG

Do you see yourself as a PC Gamer or a console player? (or perhaps you play equally much on both formats?) And which formats do you currently play on?



Juby

I’m a PC Gamer without doubt. I also play in Nintendo 2DS XL but not too much.

Robin TGG

What’s your take on censorship, nudity and sex in the world of games? And do you like nude content in games in general?

Juby

I only think that if the nudity or sex scenes make sense if the history of the said game (s) is good. However, if that’s not the case, and it’s like “it’s simply there for the sake of it”. Then the game in question can be better without this kind of content.

Robin TGG

Do you like comics, super-heroes and super-villains? If so, who?

Juby

Yes, I like it! My favorites are X-23, Psylocke, and Poison Ivy.

Robin TGG

How do you make your cosplay picks? And do you accept cosplay requests from fans?

Juby

I pick my cosplays depending on the dressing and the personality of the character, as for the part about the cosplay requests. Some time ago, I asked in my social networks “with which costume would you like to see me?) to know the opinion of my followers, but I don’t accept directly the request of fans.

Robin TGG

What’s your hopes, expectations and plans for the rest of the year? And is there anything that you would like to say to our readers?

Juby

I hope to assist to more cons and make better cosplays. I’m very happy with my progress, and I want to say thank you to all the readers for the interest of reading this interview and knowing more about me!
