— What aspects did you want to express or focus on in this cosplay?
Hikiniku: I paid a lot of attention to the wig to ensure it would cover or reveal my eyes in just the right way. However, it was very challenging on the day due to the strong wind... Additionally, since the character has covered eyes, I wanted to focus on the lipstick. I tried on all the lipsticks I had at home to compare and chose the one that looked most like Elegg's color! Also, I definitely wanted to express Elegg's plumpness, so I made sure to eat a hearty breakfast before participating (laughs).
— Can you tell us how you got into "NIKKE," what you find appealing about the work, and who your favorite characters are?
Hikiniku: I came across Viper-chan's visuals on Twitter (now X), which were too cute to resist, and before I knew it, I had downloaded the game... The story is incredibly interesting, and the characters are adorable, so I can't stop playing! My favorite character is Neve-chan!! I wish she appeared more in the game~!! (sob)
— Are there any other cosplays you would like to try in the future?
Hikiniku: I want to do even more "NIKKE" cosplays in the future, and I really want to improve the quality of my Elegg cosplay even more! Since she's a character I love, I aim to pursue even higher quality to achieve the best Elegg cosplay possible!
— Thank you very much!
Hikiniku skillfully portrayed the eye-covering character Elegg with a perfect sense of subtlety. Her fresh approach of ensuring a plump look by eating well was a revelation.
