A. No, none of my friends at school or dance even knew what cosplay was before I started doing it.

Q5. What is the biggest event for Cosplay enthusiasts that you are really looking forward to?

Q10. How do you think you have changed since you have started dressing up in CosPlay? Do you think you have grown with confidence and met more people?

A. I have definitely grown through cosplay and met some amazing people. WhenI'm in costume I feel more confident speaking to people as I am playing a character. I get to explore being different people all the time and I don't want that to ever stop.
