Event Companions Disguised as Elevator Girls! The Long-awaited 'Persona 3' Elizabeth Cosplay

—— Could you tell us what motivated you to cosplay as Elizabeth from 'Persona 3'?

Kairi Minamino (hereinafter, Minamino): The first time I cosplayed her was 10 years ago, and it led me to work as staff at artist Lotus Juice's solo concert, and I've got many memories with this character.

There was a time when my enthusiasm for cosplay diminished, but I wanted to continue a little longer, so I participated in "Hokocos" last May for the first time, enjoyed interacting with 'Persona' fans, and started attending events again.

I think it was the first time in about 7 years that I cosplayed Elizabeth at that event. I'm glad she caught the eye of 'Persona 3' fans again this time.

—— Please tell us about the costume for this cosplay.

Minamino: The costume was ordered 10 years ago. It's a bit worn out since it's old, but I love the material and shape. I didn't want to cosplay in something flimsy that would ruin her aura, so I was very particular when ordering it for the first time.

—— Are there any expressions you focused on while cosplaying?

Minamino:I think the character design's unique inorganic nature stands out particularly in her, so I made sure to maintain her defiant smile.
