What got you into cosplay?
My friend, Shelby, told me about Otakon in '03 which made me want to go, so I wanted to do a costume from Fushigi Yuugi since that was my current favorite anime.
What was your first costume and why?
Miaka from Fushigi Yugi. I hated her as a character because I thought she was annoying throughout the series. -_-; So I figured I'd cosplay her to let people take pics with me in poses where they were murdering me (Miaka) in all ways possible LOL
What is your favorite costume and why?
I'd have to say my Sexy no jutsu Kakashi costume. It's the most well-known one of mine and it's a bunch of fun wearing it. ^-^
Do you have a dream costume you'd like to make?
Yes, a few actually: Sophia or Ellis from BAT2 Jun Kazama from Tekken 2 Multiple Dynasty Warriors characters
What has been your most memorable cosplay experience?
Doing the AnimeUSA2005 skit with group 15 going as SnJ Kakashi. ^-^
Do you participate in masquerades?
Yes, I participated in my first masq. at AnimeUSA2005 in a Naruto skit.
What was your best masquerade experience?
That's the only experience and definitely the best! I made so many friends and I was glad to have been in a Naruto skit. It was one of the best experiences of my life, actually.
Have you won any awards for your costumes?
Nope.. ^-^;
