Maridah - cosplay celebrity and a great comrade of mine who I first met at Anime Expo 4 years ago.
Her cosplay has been featured in print, TV and all over the internets and she is also well known in Japan too.
Maridah is also a show host for EX Studio which produces programmes about anime and gaming, and recently she's also become a Brand Ambassador for Crunchyroll.
Maridah has just arrived in Penang and be joining us as a guest at Culture Japan Con which takes place this weekend August 17 - 18 2013 at SQCC. If you want to meet her and got no tickets then just turn up this weekend!
See Maridah in action in the vid below.
