cosplayer
They may be young, but they can pull off some fantastic costumes.
Texan cosplayer UniqueSora has been wowing social media with perfect costumes of everything from American animation classics to ambitious anime icons.
We’ve seen some crazy trends in fashion come out of Japan, but this is definitely one of the most unusual yet.
These images show why the popular cosplayer has become the face of Japanese high school girls around the nation.
It’s hard to believe this photo of a barista in a Michigan Starbucks is a real photograph of a real person, not an image created by the team at Square Enix.

Meet Enako, a cute and popular cosplayer who has all her fans buzzing recently with her latest photoshoot that shows off how well pink suits her.
After enjoying the relatively slow pace of Tokyo Game Show 2015 on the press days, we headed back at the weekend for the madness that is the public days. We had to fight our way through the crowds before we finally reached the outdoor cosplay area, where the weather was perfect for getting some great shots of the amazing outfits on show. While there were plenty of video game characters striking their poses, there were also familiar faces from anime and movies, so even if you’re not into gaming you might recognize some of them.
The level of detail in some of these home-made costumes is astounding, and there was a great mix of the sexy and the totally kick-ass. Join us after the jump for a selection of pics and video of our favourites.
