What got you into cosplay?
The feeling of dressing into fabulous costumes made by your own hands.
What was your first costume and why?
My first costume was Yomiko Read from Read or Die. She's a great character and her costume looked easy enough for me to begin.
What is your favorite costume and why?
I love all my costumes, they are all very comfy and characters near to my heart.
Do you have a dream costume you'd like to make?
I'd love to do something very showy and difficult. Maybe some CLAMP character.
What has been your most memorable cosplay experience?
My first time cosplaying was fun and it gave many sweet memories, but I have to say that cosplaying Izumi from Kujibiki was most memorable; people actually knew the character ^^;
Have you won any awards for your costumes?
Our Kujibiki group came to divined second place in Best skit at Animecon IV 2006.
