I stumbled across a site introducing a cosplayer, that was my first experience with asianbeat. There was lots of information on manga, anime, fashion and competitions so I started checking asianbeat pretty regularly. All the cosplayers on asianbeat are at such a high level that I really wanted to see them so I ended up going to an event.I got to see AZA MIYUKO live, read “AZA MIYUKO's Doki-Doki Fukuoka Story” and wanted to get to Fukuoka straightaway.

I used to be shut away at home but through asianbeat I wanted to experience so many things and was able to get out more. Going to events and exhibitions and running a stand at the event have let me make lots of friends too! I saw all their pictures and decided to record my experiences in pictures as well. I've made so many great memories. When I am organising my pictures I remember all the fun I had.I found a picture of me wearing sunglasses which I won from asianbeat competition in the past! I was so happy and surprised when the prize was delivered. Gradually I'm doing all the things I want to do. That's because of the power asianbeat has given me. Here's to living positively!
