Why I cosplay Kakashi:
"I've made many costumes for a variety of different characters, but I mainly cosplay for Kakashi Hatake - my favorite character from Naruto - because I like his personality, way of life and different techniques (Sharingan is one of his greatest). Kakashi is a great role model to follow and I am truly proud to say that I am a Kakashi cosplayer."

Why I cosplay Kakashi:
"I like to cosplay Kakashi because I enjoy both the elements of mystery and humor that are in his character. I also find it amusing that my identity is essentially hidden, so everyone knows me as just Kakashi when I'm cosplaying him."

Why I cosplay Deidara:
"I really loved the character because of his attitude, and cosplaying Deidara was fun because most of the characters I've cosplayed are more reserved. But when my friends decided to all cosplay Akatsuki, it became an amazing way to bond with them, and I had my best convention experience ever."
Tenten Cosplay

Why I cosplay Tenten:
"I LOVE Tenten. It’s ridiculous how much of a character with such little screen time I’ve come to love and identify with. I understand her struggle to find her talents and to accept her weaknesses and turn them into strengths. I love her character and her team. I want to cosplay all of her designs because I just love and obsess over her so much. That’s really it, I love her and her design from the last film which I think is the most beautiful."
Gaara Cosplay
Why can't we be friends? Why can't we be friends? Why can't we be friends?
