——What inspired you to want to cosplay as Maomao from "The Apothecary Diaries" this time?
Kotoeri Yuma-san (hereafter, Kotoeri): After watching "The Apothecary Diaries," I felt that the world view and story were absolutely wonderful, and I thought, "I want to enter that world!" That was my inspiration. Also, I felt that Maomao's personality, height, and body type were similar to mine, and I thought she was a character whose anime world view I could express without any sense of incongruity, so I tried cosplaying for the first time in my life this time!
