Enako, who has been widely regarded as Japan’s “Number One Cosplayer” for her brilliant take on a variety of characters, has apparently expanded her popularity beyond the otaku community.
Even when she’s not dressing up as popular anime/manga characters at events, the 24-year-old social media darling is still attracting large crowds at events.
According to Soranews24, Enako’s fans adore her so much that they have been coming in droves to non-cosplay events just to see her being herself.
In fact, thousands of fans went to see her in the 2019 Visual Queen Photo Shoot, an annual gathering of major swimsuit models that was recently held at Toshimaen Pool in Tokyo’s Nerima Ward.
