SAKURA KASUGANO

Series: Street Fighter
Worn to: Ohayocon 08, Uchicon 08, Fanime 09
Status: Active


Well, in all honesty, I have only played Street Fighter a couple of times. However, I am a huge fan of Puzzle Fighter! When my friend Joe and I decided to go to Ohayocon in 2008, it was a very last-minute decision and thus a last-minute costume was in order.


I decided to cosplay Sakura because, 1) I already owned 75% of the fabric, 2) I already had the wig from my Haruhi costume, 3) I was on a huge Puzzle Fighter kick at the time, and, 4) Joe was going as Ryu. It was very easy to make and was started and finished 2 days before the con. A fun fact: the sailor collar was actually the first thing I ever sewed by myself. It was originally meant to serve as Puchiko's collar from DigiCharat but I never quite got around tofinishing that costume. I'm glad the collar finally has a purpose!


I got the chance to rewear this costume with a group in 2009 and had a blast. This costume was definitely a fun surprise!
