Probably the most famous and successful cosplayer in Japan right now, Enako is no stranger to provocative photo shoots. Heck, did you see her as a semi-nude mermaid?
But did she inadvertently reveal more than she and her managers intended in a recent photo shoot?
That's what netizens are hoping and speculating about in their customary frenzy. Cue lots of zooming-in and squinting at screens.
The suggestion is that in this photo, Enako's left nipple (or at least, the areola) is visible. The image was described as a behind-the-scenes shot from a shoot for the August issue of Young Champion ...
When it comes to gender, Japan does things differently. That guy may well be a girl, and that girl may well be a guy. Androgyny is a firmly established aspect of beauty and fashion. Indeterminate gender is sexy and alluring.
Deception, the other hand, is just plain annoying.
Cosplayer Rei Dunois is known for a penchant for Evangelion and MCU, and for incredible character transformations. He has built up a significant fanbase -- to the tune of over 60,000 followers on social media.
We write "he" because we now know the truth, though you would be forgiven for misunderstanding if you saw ...
We are late to the party with sharing this but we just spotted an interview that prolific YouTuber Nobita did with Japanese porn star Roku Kuroi (黒居ろく).
Posted back in December last year, the interview, which is subtitled in English and Chinese, is provocatively called "Why This Japanese Girl Chose to Become a Porn Star." The content, though, is not sensational but actually quite sensitive and insightful.
In the video, Kuroi, who is also a cosplayer, explains the difficult circumstances that led up to her becoming an adult video star. "When I appeared in porn for the first time, I ...
This is the grim reality for Comiket if you are a cosplayer. Sure, if you're a popular cosplayer like Enako, no doubt you get your own team of staff to help manage the crowds, but for the amateurs and the small fry out there -- of which they are many -- you are nothing more than a toy or meat to be haggled over, parsed, and lensed by the snapping cameras of hordes of male visitors. And all at ultra-close proximity.
These two pictures widely shared online have once again revealed this situation, this time at Comiket 97 held at the end of December at 2019.
As is clearly visible, the men are ...
The popular ero-cosplayer Shikimi Otogi (御伽樒) has posted a series of nude selfies documenting what she looks like when she strips off a hot swimsuit.
While sexy Japanese ladies in slinky swimwear is nothing new, we love the fact that Otogi is not paipan and opts to retain a modest bush.
With a striking crop of blond hair (at least, in terms of her hair on top), the girl-next-door-type ero-cosplayer is careful (for some reason) not to reveal any nipples in these selfies but does show us plenty of bust and pulls her swimsuit tight on her trimmed pussy...before unveiling the full goodies ...
As we know, Comiket is less about comics and more about cosplay. Specifically, female cosplayers.
Stars like Enako can attract huge crowds (and money).
But even lesser-known female cosplayers can pull in a strong audience, though, as one example from the recent Comiket 96 showed, this phenomenon can have unpleasant consequences if you are not prepared or don't have adequate minders.
In a video that has since gone viral (nearly 4 million views as of writing), a Chinese cosplayer found herself on August 11th surrounded by a mob of men with cameras who refused to make space for her. Instead ...
Cosplayers surely know what they are doing when they wear short skirts and let fans surround them at events.
They know that those lens are pointed in a certain direction and will inevitably capture a certain thing. And so naturally they prepare their nether regions for that express purpose.
If you have ever wondered what kind of shots fans really want to get, it's something like this.
Gorgeous cosplayer Yutori definitely got her you-know-what into the right paipan fully-shaved state in readiness for those copious amounts of panchira upskirt shots.
Close-ups reveal that she did a mighty ...
The Japanese cosplayer Enako has answered her fans' prayers and posed semi-nude for a photo shoot in the March 11th issue of Weekly Playboy magazine.
The shoot is a promotional preview of her first photo book "Mermaid Princess." Not surprisingly, there is a marine theme -- perfect for relieving us of our winter blues -- and Enako is dressed up as an alluring mermaid.
Born in 1994, Enako is often spoken of as Japan's "top cosplayer" today. And it pays. Enako recently revealed that she earns over ¥1 million (over $9,000) a month, which is a heck of a ...
Tokyo Game Show 2018 concluded on September 23rd after four days of the usual booth babes and sexiness -- oh, and a few cars.
We weren't able to make it in person, being too busy testing and writing about adult toys, but we saw some great pictures of a Japanese cosplayer showing off her cute, striped panties to the crowds.
We're not sure if this has anything to do with the automobile industry, or whether it needs to, but the results have proven a hit with netizens in Japan -- and for obvious reasons.
The slinky, provocative cosplayer in question is Miyu Inamori (稲森美優), ...
Over three days last weekend, the 94th Comiket was held in Odaiba, Tokyo, attracting its usual crowds and online attention as much as for the fair content as the attendees.
The weather was good, so ero-cosplayers were out in forced, dressed to various extremes of skimpy. So what's new? Nothing much, but we reckon we might have found two of the skimpiest cosplay outfits on display at the event.
This cute catgirl cosplayer (Fate/kaleid liner Prisma Illya cosplay, for those in the know) came about as close to showing us her paipan pussy as she could while still ostensibly protecting her ...
