What was your first costume and why?
The MSU anime club, Animosity, had been watching Naruto for two years when it got liscenced. My friends and I dressed up as the sand nins (in two hours before club... rather last minute) in honor of the last time we could watch it in club. I was Kankurou.
What is your favorite costume and why?
Toss up between America and the Bubblehead Nurse.
I just get to have a lot of in character fun in those two costumes.
What has been your most memorable cosplay experience?
Winning the Youmacon Masquerade thing for a novice presentation. We weren't expecting to win anything at all because the skit was very last minute and just silly, so when we won we all started screaming like little girls and running down the hallway to the stage (of course, Tobi and I couldn't see well, Kisame was sceaming like a schoolgirl and Sasori's puppet body made it a little hard to run... )
Do you participate in masquerades?
Yep. Whenever possible.
What was your best masquerade experience?
Naruto Algorithm March - Asuma finishes his single dance, and no one cheers at all. Perfect response. ^-^
