——Could you tell us about your first encounter with "NIKKE", the charm of the work, your favorite characters, etc.?
Chin:I started with a friend's introduction. There are many attractions of "NIKKE", but what I particularly like is that when you play, you are deeply drawn into the serious and profound world view of the story. It's exciting to see the characters trying to find hope in desperate situations! The characters I particularly like are Lapi, Red Hood, and Guren.
—What aspects did you want to express and what did you focus on in this cosplay?
Chin:With the posing in cosplay, I wanted to recreate Lapi's cool and stylish vibe. For the costume, I'm using ready-made pieces, but I've adjusted the details to better fit the body line and removed unnecessary parts. I also remade the bullet belts equipped on both sides of the waist.
The weapon needed reinforcement for more aggressive poses, so I customized it using parts for airsoft guns.
—Is there any other cosplay you're interested in trying in the future?
Chin:Next, I'm preparing for Lapi's overspec "Lapi: Red Hood." I want to continue participating in various cosplay events as my beloved character and enjoy them. I'm also eager to take on challenges in recreating cool scenes in photoshoots at studios.
—Thank you very much!
The attention to detail in the meticulous costume and the coolness portrayed in the posing left a strong impression of Chin. With the Red Hood version also in preparation, there's a lot to look forward to.
