The reason I didn’t purchase the kimono accessories via bidding was because there’s specific versions of items I wanted and there are a lot of items used when wearing kimono it just didn’t feel worthwhile trying to outbid someone on something if I was still going to have to purchase x item elsewhere. Sometimes the second hand items are new/unworn. You can get some great deals from bidding and sometimes pay much less for second hand items than purchasing them new. I did buy winter zori as well, (like the ones she wears when she’s first introduced) but didn’t have time to paint them. These were all auction bids so I can’t really link a specific shop, but for all the kimono accessories, I bought them from KIMONO WAKU. The obi, obijime, zori were purchase from Japan Yahoo! Auction. I purchase the kimono, obiage, under kimono, tabi socks from Kimono Yukata Market Sakura. So a lot had to do with learning how to properly wear a kimono and tie an obi (practicing kitsuke, the art of dressing in kimono). Like the stage play, I wanted to keep the costume as authentic as possible and more on the realistic side since that was what I was basing it off. I also liked how her wig was translated into a more realistic hairstyle than the super poofy 90’s look, but that’s just a personal preference! Marina Tanoue is so cute as Yukina and everyone in the stage play is really well cast. I actually had been working on the stage play version of Botan first, but Yukina was easier to bring to a convention. I recently reread it and had been watching the Stage Play and felt inspired to cosplay more characters. Yu Yu Hakusho is one of my favorite animes. When she found out about her brother who was cast from the Ice Kingdom she escaped to the Human World. As a member of a demonic family of winter spirits, she produces beautiful jewels through her tears. Description: Yukina is an Ice Maiden and twin sister of Hiei, although she is unaware of their relation.
