As Christmas comes near, I seem to be getting more and more pink stuff. ^_^ This is a photo of me taken when I came home from the event MegaCon, where I wore my pink santa costume, with a black classic short hair. My head felt so relieved after removing the santa cap and wig! [...]

I was my favorite anime girl for a day

Czari Flores - Sakoshita Yanagi from Flame of Recca - Cosplay

When I stepped into the venue of an event, it definitely looked like I was in costume, but most people there didn’t know who I was cosplaying.
