Gojo’s life took a dramatic turn when he met Kitagawa Marin, his cheerful classmate who happens to be a cosplayer, in the anime series titled My Dress-Up Darling. The encounter with Kitagawa, who has many friends, gave a new touch to Gojo’s dull life. Gojo, an introverted teenage boy who has been living with his grandpa since his parents left him, has been trained to make dolls and their accessories. However, he lacks human interaction and friends because of his passion for doll-making. When Gojo coincidentally met Kitagawa at school, Kitagawa caught him using a sewing machine. Eventually, Kitagawa asked him to help improve her cosplay outfit, which was the first time Gojo created a cosplay costume. Despite his lack of cosplay experience, Gojo dedicated himself to making the best cosplay outfit possible for Kitagawa, although he still needs to learn how to choose the right materials to make it comfortable for humans to wear and move.
Despite the imperfections, Gojo received admiration for a job well done in creating Kitagawa’s cosplay costume. It proved that Gojo is talented and has a future in the world of cosplay. Furthermore, Gojo and Kitagawa complement each other’s personalities. Gojo is introverted, hardworking, and kind while Kitagawa is extroverted, cheerful, and has many friends. As long as they stay together, they will continue to support each other both in their love life and careers.
In conclusion, My Dress-Up Darling portrays a story of how an introverted boy who enjoys doll-making discovers the world of cosplay and gains new life experiences through his friendship with an extroverted cosplayer girl. The series showcases how their complementary personalities lead them to new possibilities.
