About this Costume
- Construction Details:

- Personal Thoughts:
- This was one of those cosplays decided in a whim and made in less than a week, though I had a powerful reason to do so: one of the guests of the convention I planned on taking this costume to was the great Shinichiro Watanabe, director not only of this beautiful adaptation, but also of a few of the masterpieces of anime such as Cowboy Bebop or Samurai Champloo. I couldn't help but make my own little homage to this living legend, and when a friend of mine told me he'll be going as Sentarou, I didn't doubt anymore! XD Ricchan is my second favorite character of this beautiful series (the first being the adorable Sen) which also has amazingly animated musical sections. It also made me respect jazz, a genre that I previously ignored.
As a prop, I brought a score of 'My Favorite Things' (the song Ricchan sings during last episodes of the series) and I was lucky enough to have it signed by Watanabe himself, who complimented me after we had a photo together *;__;*
