I am honored to have participated in a cosplay event for the very first time, and to experience it at Matsuri in Manila made it even more special.
I am deeply grateful to my parents for their unwavering support throughout this journey.
I had the privilege of cosplaying Sakura Kinomoto in her neko costume inspired by the episode “The Thunder” from Cardcaptor Sakura. Being chosen as one of the cosplay participants is already a great achievement for me.
Win or lose, I consider this a victory, as I had the opportunity to perform at the Quirino Grandstand. Despite my young age, I proved to myself that I am capable of stepping onto the stage and performing with confidence.
I am also thankful for the kind words from Myrtle Sarrosa, who recognized my confidence on stage. It truly meant a lot to me.
Thank you, Matsuri, for this unforgettable experience. I am sincerely grateful to everyone I met and shared this event with.
