Not just because Cherry Blossom is my favorite character in the series, but also Megu is a talented cosplayer who I have seen over the years getting better and better! So we found a nice park and did some amazing portrait style shots. Why? Peace. One thing Cherry Blossom could use is a peaceful day.

At the time, I didn’t realize that Rem had a different outfit, so we ran with it.
