This set of Demon King cosplay photos from Shiyakata 2 is finally retouched and ready. Quite a lot of thought went into this Dark Gothic style outfit, from preparation to the actual shoot. The overall color scheme is the classic red and black combination, which matches the oppressive feeling this character gives off very well. The green long straight wig paired with golden contact lenses, with eye makeup intentionally intensifying the red smudging, aims to highlight that yandere yet slightly crazy dangerous temperament. The top is made of black leather straps and hollow-out designs, exposing the waistline, while the skirt features an irregular black and white wavy hem adorned with rivet decorations along the edges, paired with black stockings and platform shoes, making the overall look more aggressive while also adding some sexiness.

The shooting location was chosen at the Nanning Dreamer Dimension Studio, where the red velvet curtains and black cross background fit the style of this photoset perfectly. Props prepared included a black lace folding fan, a silver knife, a fork, a skull, and a red apple. To create that atmosphere of being ready to attack at any moment, I specifically studied the gestures of holding the knife and fork while posing, trying not to look stiff. We repeatedly adjusted the position of the fake blood special effects on my face and arms, wanting to create the realism of splashing and dripping without looking too deliberate.

During the shoot, the photographer Miaobai was really good at catching moments, especially those moments when I held the folding fan to half-cover my face and placed the apple next to the skull. Because the clothes have many straps and hollows, wearing them is actually a bit tight, coupled with those platform shoes, the physical energy consumption for the whole set was quite large. However, when swinging the skirt hem and opening the fan, the on-site effect was indeed very cool. Although I didn't go to the Nanning ComicExpo site this time, I feel that this finished photoset in the studio expressed the arrogance and danger of the Demon King quite appropriately.
