Team Crusnik

"Whatever it is you're doing, please don't give up!"

Team Crusnik
ab:Did you have any particularly interesting or standout experiences at the "World Cosplay Summit 2016?"

Team Crusnik:In Japan, we received a warm welcome from the people at the Nagoya town hall. It was something totally unexpected, so we were really moved. The other teams were super friendly and there was no sense of rivalry throughout the event. By the end it was like we were all one big family.

ab:What was your impression of the representatives from other countries and regions?

Team Crusnik:Everyone was so kind and respectful to one another. The teams were so creative, the cosplay costumes were made down to the finest detail and the performances were very interesting. I was also really taken aback by the audience and judging panel.

ab: In order to get from the "ICGP" to the "WCS 2016" I bet you had to go up against lots of other competitors. How were you able to seize victory?

Team Crusnik:Team Crusnik: To be completely honest, we're not too sure how our performance was judged and evaluated, but a lot of people told us that cutting the bodies in half and flying through the air had a big impact.

Team Crusnik
ab: Well, you've already become the number one cosplayers in the world, but what are your hopes and dreams for the future?

Rian:My dream is to become a business person who's active on the world stage. I hope young Indonesian people will take the lead and really help develop society to such an extent that that their creative potential becomes known to people all over the world.

ab: Finally, do you have a message or anything you want to say to your cosplaying friends out there?

Team Crusnik:To all the cosplayers in Indonesia, please don't stop striving to what you're working towards. All your efforts and hard work will definitely be rewarded. I think it's far better to be someone who tries doing something that they love, than to regret not doing it.
