Say Hello to Piano Squall

You might have seen a cosplay Squall at conventions before. What you might not have experienced is the pure passion and energy this man has at the piano. Here's a sampling of his piano and piano renditions of Chrono Cross, Chrono Trigger, and Xenogears.

Wonder how he got started? It's simple: from the Youtube comments:

Well, for what it's worth - it wasn't really a gimmick... He was just a Squall cosplayer at cons, until some of my friends found out he played piano really well and had him play at a piano we found at BAAF 03 in the Mariott Marquis... and some people from AnimeNEXT overheard and invited him to play there, very informally... and so on and so forth. He wore his Squall cosplay as always and people just started knowing him as "Piano Squall,"
