howling x princess mononoke 2025

You unleashed the beast
Call it wolf gang 'cause we 'bout to feast
Call it firsthand a new type of breed
Never cease, I got mouths to feed

After watching XG’s ‘Howling’ music video for the first time, I couldn’t help but see the similarities between their concept and San from Princess Mononoke! I wanted to see if I could put my own spin on some frames from the MV and @hailthenaninator was generous enough to make this costume for me to shoot! I hope you enjoy these shots and something a little different from my normal cosplay work :)

Way out
Feeling like an ocean, on the wave now
Feeling like I’m floating, never weighed down

Will I complete the mystery
of my flesh
I will rise
After a thousand years
lipping
flowers
And set my teeth in the silver of the moon

Oh, who do you cry for?
Keening softly 'neath the winter moon

serenity - 2022

Sometimes such passionate love doth in her rise
Down from her beaten path she softly slips
And with her mantle veils the Sun’s bold eyes
Then in the gloaming finds her lover’s lips.
