Leslie: 切ない is my favorite word and I always fall for such a character.

I love the scene in which finally Rukawa and Sakuragi shakes hands in the final game, but it is a very short moment, though.

Everything you’ve written about has been so interesting, I’m studying Japanese but am nowhere near good enough to figure out these things by context. But for example, now I will never forget what 切ない means and what makes it different from 悲しい!

I didn’t care much for Rukawa when I first started watching, but then after a while he really started to grow on me, I think when he and Sakuragi were arguing about whose fault it was they lost a game I always liked him after that…

It seems like a singer character always has a lot of costumes like Yuna or Sheryl Nome. Lelouch actually has more costumes than I thought. The reason why I cosplayed this, not his emperor one is, yep, not because I would be a loser if I did, but I just like it.

Thank you for your explanation. We don’t have such a thing here. It was Father’s Day last Sunday.

Oh thanks for coming. Yes I sometimes write about such a trendy word like soushoku-kei danshi since there are also people who want to learn not only anime words but trendy ones.

And thank you for saying like that for my Rukawa cosplay! I like him the most in Slam Dunk.^^

Wow that is really nice cosplay! ^^ The first photo made me think of Songstress Lenne/Yuna costume from Final Fantasy.

I think it is every cosplayers dream to own all the costumes to their characters, I once wanted to make every single costume from Card Captor Sakura (but there were way too many). For me, if a character i am cosplaying has different outfits, I will try to do the one that not many people cosplay (not because I would be a loser if I did what everyone else was doing haha, but it’s just refreshing to see something different.)

Johannistag is a holiday that celebrates the birth of John the Baptist like how celebrating Christmas is for the birth of Christ. It is similar since many Christmas traditions are based on traditions associated with the winter solstice (like Christmas trees). Johannistag has traditions associated with the summer solstice (Like bonfires.).

I just found your blog and I think it’s fascinating, thank you for writing it! (I found it after reading an article about 草食系男子 and looking for more information, I thought your post was more interesting than the article…) I love your cosplay pictures too, Slam Dunk is one of my favorite series and I think you made a wonderful Rukawa

Ahaha～arigatou!!^^
Yes, I made this windmill toy for this cosplay. I wanted to make Lelouch more of a voyager in the wind.
