These Asian Cosplayers Are Posting Their Pictures Before And During Cosplaying And The Changes Are Incredible

If you like video games and anime, you probably know what cosplay is, but just in case you don’t, it’s a performance art where people wear costumes representing characters from their favorite shows or games. The goal of cosplaying is to resemble the selected character as close as possible, often making the cosplayers themselves barely recognizable. This fact even started a Japanese hashtag #レイヤーのオンとオフ (translating to “with and without the layer”) to trend on Twitter. Asian cosplayers started posting pictures of themselves in and out of the costumes and you can hardly believe they’re the same people.
