What got you into cosplay?
At my first convention, Katsucon 9 I saw people in awesome costumes and outfits. And after that I was like "I want to dress up too!" So then I finally made a costume for AnimeUSA in 2003, and I haven't stopped since! XD
What was your first costume and why?
My first costume was Utena's duelist outfit. I chose the costume because I remember that Utena was one of the first anime's that I had ever seen and I though that she was awesome. Although I had to buy most of it since my sewing skills hadn't kicked in yet >.< I also had a lot of help from my mom.
What is your favorite costume and why?
A lot of my costumes are favorites of mine, but if I had to choose my top 5 they would be: -Azuma Kazuma because Azuma is just too awesome for words and I get to act all happy,wacky and crazy when I cosplay him :3 And I never act like that XD -Keiichi Maebara because he is awesome and I get to carry around a bat XD Also I love my Higurashi group :3 -Renton because Renton is my favorite character from E7 and I get to meet awesome people when I wear that costume. -Sasuke (time jump) because Sasuke is my top favorite character from Naruto and I really liked how the costume turned out. -Konata because acting like her is fun and the costume is oh so comfortable.
Do you have a dream costume you'd like to make?
Way to many to list >.< But currently I guess it would have to be Pierrot from Yakitate!! Japan. I just love his character so much, and people rarely cosplay him which is sad D:
What has been your most memorable cosplay experience?
Well I have a lot but I guess the one I think that's my most memorable one was when I first cosplayed with my friend Anat. We did Kairi and Namine together, and ever since then we haven't stopped cosplaying together XD Actually cosplaying with all my friends is always AWESOME!!
Do you participate in masquerades?
Not yet
