The Cosplay Cuties are a pair of cosplayers, Samantha and Sunny, who have been good friends since middle school. We both shared an interest in art, anime/manga, fantasy, costuming, and many other things. We have been cosplaying since 1999 when we went to our first anime convention, Anime Central. We have remained a dedicated local Midwest cosplay group and have attended all but one Anime Central.
Cosplaying has allowed us a fun and creative way to express ourselves and has proved an interesting way to meet new people. Originally our group was a trio including Sunny's cousin and Samantha's good friend Mary. Over the years we have added honorary Cosplay Cuties, including our close Japanese friend Asako, Samantha's friend Casey, and Sunny's little cousin Alexis. Our cosplaying has opened up many opportunities for us, including being offered jobs that ask us to cosplay. Sunny and Samantha can sometimes be seen working for the anime merchandise booth, Anime Pavilion. (So stop and say "Hi" sometime.)
