Gives KanColle cosplayers a run for their money.
Azur Lane is a new battleship-management game for smartphones, and while rather similar to KanColle, it has enough uniqueness to stand on its own. Unfortunately Azur Lane has not been fully accepted by some patriotic Japanese players, but that hasn’t seemed to put a dent in its popularity.
Cosplayers have begun trying their hand at dressing up as one of the many Azur Lane characters, and among them is @sherryken777, a Twitter user and cosplayer from China who has caught the attention of Japanese netizens with her beautiful depictions.
▼ She’s got hands down one of the best cosplays out there of Kaga,
a white nine-tailed fox in Azur Lane.

味方の前ではクールで気配りの良い常識人、敵の前では冷酷で残忍な肉食獣。そのギャップは、敵味方を分けて接するさっぱりとした性格ゆえか、それとも普段は秘めた「野性」を抑えているのか、真実は彼女を手に入れた指揮官のみぞ知る…#アズールレーン pic.twitter.com/nrqyCLlEbp
▼ Her costume for Akagi from the same game is equally astounding.

https://twitter.com/sherryken777/status/909006023389622272▼ We suspect she has dabbled in a bit of modeling as well,
which would be immensely helpful in her cosplay endeavors.
Cosplay fans will no doubt be thrilled with the new wave of fleet-girl cosplays thanks to Azur Lane, and with a bit of luck Comiket attendees may just catch a glimpse of @sherryken777 when winter comes around.
