Tokyo Interview #1 : Rachel & Paula

Sat down and chatted with two American cosplayers living in Japan for the past 4+ years.

So this video runs a 73 minutes long so I suggest you let it run in the background and listen to it. They really tell you how it is cosplaying in Japan.

Despite the differences how they may cosplay and how we may cosplay, at the end of the day, it is still the love of the characters.

Cosplay in Japan is neither good or bad but just different due to cultural differences.

Have questions about cosplaying in Japan ? Feel free to contact these two. They'll be happy to answer your questions !
