What got you into cosplay?
I was inspired by some of my friends who I'd seen pictures of cosplaying. I was also inspired just by seeing other people's pictures. It looked like so much fun that I decided to try it out for myself. ^_^;
What was your first costume and why?
Shuichi Shindou's concert outfit was my first costume. After watching Gravitation, I decided that I would cosplay as Shuichi since he was my favorite character from my absolute favorite anime series at the time.
What is your favorite costume and why?
Rena! She's my most popular costume and I LOVE carrying around that huge sword.
Do you have a dream costume you'd like to make?
First dream costume was Rena from .hack//Legend of the Twilight, which has been done. Next up, Rei Ayanami's plugsuit from Neon Genesis Evangelion.
What has been your most memorable cosplay experience?
My first time wearing my Rena costume at Anime Central 2007. I finally had the chance to walk around in my first dream costume and loved every moment of it. It also made me happy that people didn't seem to mind my figure given the costume. I had lots of pictures taken of me too.
Do you participate in masquerades?
Yes, but just for stage presence, not craftsmanship. Most of my costumes aren't 100% made by me anyway. I need to learn how to sew.
What was your best masquerade experience?
N/A
Have you won any awards for your costumes?
Nah.
