If you were keeping up with my C73 coverage<\/a>, you would know that I had the pleasure of meeting Arisa Mizuhara live on day three<\/a>.<\/p>\n For those of you who are oblivious to who she is, Arisa Mizuhara<\/a> (\u00e6\u00b0\u00b4\u00e5\u017d\u0178\u00e3\u0081\u201a\u00e3\u201a\u0160\u00e3\u0081\u2022) is one of the greatest cosplayers ever. (Even Danny<\/a> agrees with me.) I’ve been a fan of hers for some time and it was quite a fanboy moment to meet her in the flesh at Comiket.<\/p>\n Anyway, I recently contacted her and requested for an online interview. She gracefully agreed and answered twenty questions provided by me. The interview was actually conducted over a week ago, but it took me some time to get around to translating the responses. Read them after the break!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n

\nPlease introduce yourself briefly.<\/p>\n
\nMy cosplay name is Arisa Mizuhara. I started to cosplay earnestly 8 years ago. My homepage is called Nyannyantei<\/a>.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
\nBirthday: 22nd November (Scorpio)
\nBloodtype: AB
\nFavourite food: Chocolate, cookies, cheese
\nFavourite drinks: Coffee, orange juice
\nFavourite manga: Gintama, Yu-Gi-Oh!, Initial D
\nFavourite games: Biohazard (Resident Evil), Final Fantasy series, Kamaitachi no Yoru<\/a>, and other mystery novel games
\nCosplay history: I started in December 1999’s Winter Comiket. My first cosplay was Dejiko.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n2.<\/h3>\n
\nHow did you come to be interested in cosplay?<\/p>\n
\nI was making doujinshi and selling them at events. I once saw someone doing a Di Gi Charat<\/a> cosplay in the booth next to mine and I thought it was cute. I wanted to try making a Dejiko costume myself too and that was how it started. ^^<\/p><\/blockquote>\n3.<\/h3>\n
\nWhat do you think is the attraction of cosplay?<\/p>\n
\nI think it is fun to make and wear the cosplays of my favourite characters and take pictures while making the same poses as them. It’s an expression of my feelings for the characters.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n4.<\/h3>\n
\nHow do you decide on what characters to cosplay as? Is it limited to only characters you like?<\/p>\n
\nI cosplay characters from works I like. But occasionally my appearance or features don’t match certain characters, no matter how much I like them. In those cases, I get my friends or other cosplayers to cosplay and then take pictures so that I can mo\u00c3\u00a9 over them later. *^^* (Examples include Seto Kaiba from Yu-Gi-Oh!<\/strong> and Toshirou Hijikata from Gintama<\/strong> ^^::)\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n5.<\/h3>\n
\nWhich is your own favourite cosplay?<\/p>\n
\nBlack Magician Girl from Yu-Gi-Oh<\/strong> and Dejiko from Di Gi Charat<\/strong> left the biggest impression when I made them. I made both costumes quite some time ago but I still often wear them.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n6.<\/h3>\n
\nAs a cosplayer and as a person watching others cosplay, what kind of cosplays do you like?<\/p>\n
\nI think no matter which side one is on, cosplay feels best when it brings out the essence of the character and the poses match the original source.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n7.<\/h3>\n
\nWhat characters to you want to try cosplaying as?<\/p>\n
\nI’m currently making a few costumes from Umineko no Naku Koro ni<\/strong><\/a>. (Shannon, Battler, Maria, etc.) I’m also making costumes from the Touhou<\/strong><\/a> doujin game series.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n8.<\/h3>\n
\nAre there any cosplayers whom you admire?<\/p>\n
\nThere are a few, but it’s a secret. (lol) Watching them cosplay so perfectly and have fun inspired me to want to continue to enjoy cosplaying too. ^^<\/p><\/blockquote>\n9.<\/h3>\n
\nDo you think cosplay is an art?<\/p>\n
\nDepending on reproduction level of the costume and the details, and the overall feeling it gives, cosplay does often contain artistic elements.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n10.<\/h3>\n
\nSome advice for people who want to give cosplaying a shot?<\/p>\n
\nI think anybody can enjoy cosplaying as long as you put in the love for your favourite characters. ^^ Whether it fits or not is not as important as trying your best to become the character you like. I’m sure you’ll find that it’s a really enjoyable experience \u00e2\u2122\u00aa<\/p><\/blockquote>\n11.<\/h3>\n
\nYour thoughts on C73.<\/p>\n
\nActually, I caught a cold that day and I felt really sick. >_< But I met a lot of people and it turned out to be a fun day. ^^<\/p>\n12.<\/h3>\n
\nPlease tell us the type of music you like.<\/p>\n
\nI like fast eurobeat songs like the ones in Initial D<\/strong>.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n13.<\/h3>\n
\nWhat were the last games you played and the last anime you watched?<\/p>\n
\nI played Umineko no Naku Koro ni Chapter 2<\/strong> (Original work: Ryuukishi 07<\/a>) that came out on 31st Dec. It’s a new work from the original creator of Higurashi no Naku Koro ni<\/strong> and the story this time is really good! I’ve been watching quite a few anime series recently. I finished the whole series of Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei<\/strong> and Gunslinger Girl<\/strong> (first season) on New Year’s Day \u00e2\u2122\u00aa<\/p><\/blockquote>\n14.<\/h3>\n
\nWhat does “mo\u00c3\u00a9” mean to you?<\/p>\n
\nIf talking or thinking about a particular character and series makes me feel excited and my heart beat faster, then I think that is “mo\u00c3\u00a9”. (lol)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n15.<\/h3>\n
\nAre you really into anything recently?<\/p>\n
\nI’m currently addicted to half-body bathing<\/a>. In terms of anime and manga, I’ve been enjoying Gintama<\/strong> (Hideaki Sorachi) and ZONE 00<\/strong> (Kiyo Kujou), among others.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n16.<\/h3>\n
\nWhat’s your ideal relationship partner?<\/p>\n
\nA kind person with compatible values. ^^<\/p><\/blockquote>\n17.<\/h3>\n
\nWhat do your family and friends think about cosplaying?<\/p>\n
\nMy family and friends are very understanding about cosplaying. ^^ Especially my father, because he likes anime and cute-looking character goods. (lol)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n18.<\/h3>\n
\nDo you often receive fan letters from overseas?<\/p>\n
\nI do receive e-mails from various countries. ^^ Although I have only been cosplaying in Japan, I always feel wonderful that people from so many different countries can view my cosplays on the internet. I can only speak Japanese, so I apologize for not being able to reply your e-mails, but I am really happy to receive them. ^^<\/p><\/blockquote>\n19.<\/h3>\n
\nHave you ever cosplayed overseas? If not, do you want to?<\/p>\n
\nI have only cosplayed in Japan before. >_< If the opportunity arises, I will love to participate in cosplay events in other countries. ^^<\/p>\n20.<\/h3>\n
\nPlease leave a message for your overseas fans.<\/p>\n
\nI’m very happy to know that there are so many overseas fans who are interested in Japanese animation and cosplay. ^^ I’m still a novice at anime and cosplay, but I will continue to have fun cosplaying, so please feel free to drop by homepage anytime. ^^<\/p>\n
