Update: We had the opportunity to chat with Karen Sakai. You can check out the interview here.

Karen Sakai is a cosplayer who has recently posted a crowdfunding project on GoFundMe asking fans to help fund her breast augmentation that’s going to cost her $4,300. She wants to have bigger breasts to help with modeling and cosplaying. People have said that she already has big breasts, but she admits that her breast size is a C and that she doubles up on bras.

The crowdfunding project has received negative comments from the cosplay community, with many saying that cosplayers shouldn’t resort to crowdsourcing for cosplay, and that cosplayers should use their own funds for hobbies.

Check out her video on why she wants to do this below.
