Let's just say my cosplay history consists of lots of trolls and goofing around, which I don't think I can call myself a cosplayer at all. NOW, however, I am taking one serious step at a time in cosplaying. 

Being a cosplayer requires confident and great in-character esteem and for me, such things come from costume. Meaning, by wearing the costume, I feel more or less like the character and I can easily breathe in life into the character I am cosplaying, which is why I am very particular about where I buy my costume.

This year, Alhamdulillah, I have gained many friends who actually want to be my partner in cosplay. Among all of them is Aoi Ryuzaki, who I have known for quite some time. He proposed me to be his long-life cosplay partner, which made me flabbergasted to respond for few days. /laughs lightly/

We shared few same interested series and characters. So, Insya Allah, we will cosplay as duo for few cosplans.

For our first debut, or that's what people called, is from K Project. We both know there are many OTPs in the series, but both Aoi-kun and I just want to cosplay character we desire and love the most.

Aoi-kun wants to cosplay as Fushimi Saruhiko and I know, I know, Saru-Saki is the OTP, but I don't plan to cosplay as Misaki, or crossplay if I could say so myself.

I choose to cosplay as ANNA KUSHINA.

There's something extremely cute about this new Red King. Oops, sorry to spoil the surprise! I guess many should have known or pretty much guessed she's the Red King after Mikoto Suoh.

Many also know, especially you my sempai, that I have taken the Unbreakable Vow not to cosplay again few times already and yet here I am, already bought and had a costest as this adorable strain Red King and pretty much throw the vow out of the window.

Even so, I am most grateful and appreciate my sempai and friends and kouhai that remain cool with my return interest to cosplay. Domo arigatou /hearts/

Anyway! I ordered Anna Kushina costume from Ruby's Cosplay Shop. I have been ordering custom-made costumes from Nekoworkshop over the past years but as Nekoworkshop is completely overwhelmed with orders and limited slots, I have to search for new affordable and good quality cosplay costume commission shop.

Some of you know that apart from cosplay, I am interested in lolita and, got to be honest, lolita pieces are soooo not cheap. It is as hole-drilling as cosplay in my purse and bank. I have to take some serious life-crisis decision making whether to buy lolita piece or costume for the particular month and I always end up buying both uughh!!

For now, you can say that I am 10000% CONFIRMED that I shall cosplay as Anna Kushina this year as my comeback. Wish me luck guys! Gambarimasu!
