I would be so happy if you got to go to ACEN. I have such wonderful ideas of us hanging out and having Chicago pizza and having fun and gushing about Naoto and things (though in reality we'd probably be really busy with you doing your GeekLurv thing and me doing artist alley but still we'd at least say hi and maybe hug and say we love Naoto before parting ways).

Actually I don’t think GeekLurv is intending on running tables/events outside of TX area conventions — so I’d literally just be doing promo work by walking around and handing out business cards. So I’m sure we could hang out some :)
ACEn isn’t a for-sure thing ATM, it was more like…up for discussion last I heard. They need to lock it down and I need to make sure I can get off for school and stuff.
I hope this is a thing that happens :) It would be so awesome to meet Naoto Shirogane… urm, Sarah Fong. Same thing, right?
snowtigra:
Well, on to season 2. Might as well go all the way ^_^
Oh Naoto. We mourn for you.

THIS IMAGE IS LARGE please give it a moment to load :3
I love cosplaying my waifu. Once I maxed out Naoto’s S.Link I made her wear this everywhere, lmao. But she was alright with it :)

Once upon a time ago I saw a request for a Kanji/Naoto picture with the two of them as a prince and princess and I decided to take it upon myself to fill this request. I hope this reaches you fellow shipper because this was super fun to do. (Even if the anatomy is awful and I drew everything from memory. I will redo it later I promise!)
I hope you like Utena because oh my god I cannot unsee Utena in anything relating to princes and princesses.
(Of course Kanji is the princess duh.)
My OTP? As Utena and Anthy? Happy sounds!
sarahfongcosplay:
I did it, tumblr. I finished ;~;
Wig/makeup/etc will be on Saturday so stay tuned.
She finished! Good job, Sarah!
omegajosh:
Yes! I want more of this
… wow, I didn’t know this was a thing I needed until now!

*** I realize there is a spelling error please forgive me for that one
I notice people get really heated over kanji x naoto stuff??? like, chill out no need to take it out on anyone just because you don’t agree with them. It’s nice to consider what might be true to canon and stuff, but at the end of the day shipping is for, you know, fun. Besides, Kannao is such a malleable shipping situation how could you spoil it by sticking to and defending only one interpretation???
There are a lot of ways people ship them and I think all of them are interesting! Whether Naoto identifies as trans or not„, whether Kanji is gay, straight, etc. There are a lot of ways to interpret these characters! Not even just these 6.
But if you feel otherwise that’s totally okay and I love hearing everyone’s interpretations and stuff because stuff like that is cool!!
Yes yes. This this this. Yes good. There are so few ships I have where I can take a couple and ship them in so many ways, which is why I get so sad when “the big debate” comes up. Like, this ship is kind of a creative goldmine, if you ask me. Het, yaoi, hell yuri (come on Kanji wears a dress and hopes he’ll look pretty), just… the possibilities are endless. So when we get flooded with, “Kanji isn’t this,” or, “Naoto isn’t this,” it’s like… guys can’t we just have fun? I love all of the interpretations, honestly. Girl Naoto, Boy Naoto, in the process of becoming a boy Naoto, trying to accept herself as a girl Naoto, gay Kanji, straight Kanji, curious about wearing a dress again Kanji, black haired and trying to be proper Kanji, just friends kannao, one sided kannao, future kannao, shadow kannao, kannao with other characters (Rise, Souji/Yu, hell I’ve read them with Yosuke even) just… take your pick, guys, and have fun with it :)

Persona 4 AU:
Naoto Shirogane vs. Yu Narukami
Wow. O.K. this looks really cool and now I want art of them fighting or sparing or something *__*
Oh god new headcanon of Yu being turned on by Naoto because she’s strong and capable and awesome and can match him even if he has a bunch of persona and she just has one, he’s just turned on by her skills, and at the end of their little matches he’s got this tired smile on his face like he just had the best orgasm just from the adrenaline of their duel.
SOMEONE DO THIS THING O.K.?!

I really want to try cosplaying Naoto Shirogane, but I’m a guy, and I can guarantee I’ll get a lot of negative remarks from both my friends and the general public.
Nerd problems.
You should cosplay who you want! There are a lot of great male Naoto Shirogane cosplayers :) The point of cosplay is to cosplay who you want, to cosplay who you love. If Naoto is who you want to be, then be her. You should not be scared to cosplay, ever. You should not worry over what other people think, you should cosplay because it makes you happy. Have fun with it. There are going to be people who love your cosplay, I promise. Send me a picture, I want to see, show me your Naoto cosplay. I’m not going to judge. I love Naoto, too. The more Naoto love, the better!
