What Is the Most Amazing Cosplay Experience You Have Had?

I love it when people ask me for a photo op but the best is when I was Shinobu from demon slayer and a group of 6 year old kids were the rest of the characters and they ran up to me with big smiles on their faces asking for a photo op . It was so nice to see that I could make their day and their first convention happy.
