One of the breakout animes of 2019 was Demon Slayer, as its dark story about a teenager’s journey to avenge his family who are slayed by demons kept viewers on the edge of their seats.
A talented cosplayer brought one of the series’ most beloved characters to life, the Insect Pillar Shinobu, with an insanely detailed outfit.

In show’s plot, protagonist Tanjiro Kamado joins Demon Slayer Corps which is led by the Pillars – the strongest swordsmen in the organization – with Shinobu being one of them.
Cosplayer Swifty Amaterasu shared her jaw-dropping costume on social media, which was so accurate it looked as if the character had jumped right out of the anime itself.
Collaborating with photographer ‘ziggityzoopity,’ the talented artist struck a pose from the show, and using special effects transformed into the character as a butterfly rests on her finger.

The artist’s insanely accurate outfit mixed with the stunning photography taken outdoors makes for one of the best Demon Slayer cosplays we’ve seen to date.
