    Gotou Yuuko as Anya on CosCosPlayPlay

    Here's the random video for the day:
     

    As some of you might know, Gotou Yuuko voiced Anya in CODE GEASS R2 as well as many other popular characters like Mikuru from Suzumiya Haruhi. She appeared on yesterday's episode of CosCosPlayPlay - a program on Fuji Satellite TV featuring a lot of cosplay tips and info - cosplaying as Anya. In the video, she does a sketch (she's known for being good at drawing) and acts out some lines (explaining to the host who Marianne is in the process), all while in costume. It's pretty cute and worth a watch if you're a GEASS fan, though I don't think the Anya look really suits her.
