The details of this gear for Tsukishiro Yanagi definitely required a lot of thought during the preparation phase. Starting with the texture of the character's outfit, the white long-sleeved shirt is paired with a small black tie, and the outer corset belt along with tactical attachments makes the layering of the entire upper body highly distinct.

For the lower body, I chose a black high-waisted leather miniskirt, paired with a pair of black high-heeled ankle boots carrying a touch of techwear style, keeping the overall lines incredibly sharp. The red wig was also chosen with a highly natural luster. Paired with those fine-rimmed glasses, it beautifully recreates Tsukishiro Yanagi's intellectual yet capable temperament. The ID tag at the waist and the sparse color accents were all cross-referenced repeatedly against the in-game model before the convention.

This shoot was conducted at the VH Comic Con venue. The lighting conditions in the studio area were actually superb; you can see lots of lighting and reflector equipment in the background, which is the perfect guarantee for an absolute flawless output in this event photo sharing session.

In terms of props, the long-handled weapon this time was entirely hand-painted and assembled. Holding it while striking that bold, dynamic pose of "Everyone, feel it!" as well as the cold look of glancing back with the weapon resting on my shoulder, gave me an extremely strong sense of immersion into the character's emotions.

Even though the convention was incredibly crowded that day, the photographer was very patient in capturing these moments. The lightning special effects in the photos, combined with the tension brought by the movements, truly deliver a small sense of awe typical of Anime-style photography. Being able to personally recreate a beloved character and bring a game character into reality is a deeply rewarding thing. I hope these photos allow everyone to feel the charm of Tsukishiro Yanagi, and my gratitude goes out to the friends on-site for their support and affirmation. Every time the photos come out and I look at the final images again, I feel that all the hard work of staying up late to make props early on was completely worth it. I am actually filled with anticipation for continuing to prepare for the next convention shoot.
