Costume Player's Paradise

Young Japanese girls these days are dressing up like their favorite characters from anime (Japanese cartoons) and video games.

The practice known as "costume play" has gone from being looked at as just another fan-inspired craze to an established trend in today's Japanese youth culture.

This is a Chinese garden at Niigata Prefecture in Japan.
This garden is a splendid stage for girls who mimicked_ "Romance of the Three Kingdoms"_of Chinese story.
