Experts 3

The characters I identify with the most are two male characters.
The first one is very lazy. He always lies on sofa reading comic books and do nothing. According  to my mom, she said that my behavior is very similar to him. He is also my favorite character, too.
 The second one he has a special ability that many monsters(妖怪) like to get close to him. I like to imagine that there are many cute and strange unknown creatures stay by me side or play with me, just like the character.

I think I don't "escape" into the comic's world, I imagines I'm in it is only because I really like the story.   And comic books are like chargers to me, when my energy is about to run out, comic books give me powers.

Sentence from  Andrew Zimmern's show "Explore Cosplay in Tokyo"
1. Yurika is a nurse, working and living on a grounds of a busy Tokyo hospital. Cosplay, short for custom play, is an antidote to her high stress job. 

2. I can see why this is tremendous appealing, it's a lot of fun. And it's cool to sort of get lost into another world.

3. One of a hottest trends right now in this world is women going as boys. Because I am girl already, so I can wear skirts in daily life. I want to try to become like "handsome boy" in cosplay's world. Japan is still a male dominated society, and cosplay allows women to explore more empower role. 

4. You even walk a little differently. When you are in a character, you must feel very empowering. That is cosplay's purpose, different character different life.

2. What kind of positions does anime plays in your mind? To me, it is the introductory textbook of Japanese culture; it is a good partner of learning Japanese and it is a good helper to start a conversation to communicate with people. The most important of all, it is an exit. It is an exit to escape from reality. In my busy life, when I encounters difficulties I usually chooses to escape. To escape into a world different from reality. Sitting in front of the TV watching anime or reading comics on the bed or toilets, is my simplest way to face the problems and I can always get comfort from it. To visit my favorite scene in anime is just like walking into the screen or the comic pages, the feelings are incredible. This gives me the courage and strength to return to real life.

3. Cosplayers hide their own personality and implantation the anime characters' personality in order to expand the other side of themselves. They will get a sense of accomplishment from being photographed , watched, approved and praised. They will also be satisfied which is what they can't get from their daily life.

4. The meaning of creation, is to met someone who understands your work.

少女魔鏡中的世界
日本漫畫的基本策略,就是將主角設定為平凡、與讀者年齡相近的人物,以拉近少女讀者與角色人物之間的距離,使讀者產生認同感,將自己投射在「她」身上,引起閱讀的興趣、進而喜歡這部作品。

次元突破 動漫迷的巡禮勝地 10部超人氣動漫x100個熱門動漫場景滿載攻略
動漫畫,在你的心中佔有什麼樣的地位呢?對我而言,它是日本文化的入門教科書、是與時俱進的日語學習良伴、是與人交流、打開話匣子的好幫手。最重要的是,它是出口,是一個逃避現實世界紛擾的出口。在繁忙的求學與職場上,我碰到困難最常選擇的方法,就是逃避,躲進與現實迥異的異次元裡。在電視前看著動畫、在床上或是馬桶上翻著漫畫,是我面對無解難題或世間風雨最簡單的方法,也總是能讓我得到心靈的慰藉。走訪喜愛的作品場景、走入螢幕中與紙張裡的感覺是十分難以形容的,動畫的「聖地巡禮」,則帶給我回歸現實生活的勇氣,以及力量。
