Cosplayer PONZU posted a cosplay photo of the popular character Catherine from “Gintama” on SNS.[A wonder created by a chest measurement of 125 cm!! Thor “Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba” Yukimei Shimaji, with natural hair and a muscular physique, is fully focused on the rock pillar]
She is wearing a green kimono, leaning against the wall and smoking a cigarette. He seems to be hated, but there’s something about his character that makes you hate him. The love for the original work overflows from the entire photo.
The first photo was taken by dolce (@dolce156), and the second and third photos were taken by peacemaker (@ren1911a1).
It looks like it came straight out of an anime, and has received 160,000 likes and 23,000 reposts on social media. Followers commented, “She’s such a genius! She looks so much like her! But she also has a beauty that can’t be hidden and it’s amazing!” “It’s innovative to attack that part” “She looks exactly like her! I hope she appears in a Gintama movie next time!” “Catherine’s perfection is also amazing , I was amazed at how perfect it was, including the background and the situation! I couldn’t stop hearing people say things like, “That’s amazing!” “Catherine was real!”
We asked PONZU and Mr. saku (@saku4864), who is always in charge of PONZU’s wig production, about their commitment.
PONZU: “For now, I was conscious of making the eyes look more like the original than any other makeup.
Since Catherine has no light in her eyes, she looked for jet-black colored contacts and used them, processing them to turn off any light in her eyes.
After looking at Catherine’s drawing, I cut the false eyelashes to the required number and used them only on the outer corners of the eyes.
This character has big eyes and a very wide double width, but in my eyes, if I make the original double width wider, the original eye size becomes smaller, so I decided to make the double width wider while keeping the same size. I filled in all the original double lines with eyeliner and drew a new double line.
Regarding her skin makeup, she said, “I had a hard time finding a foundation color that wasn’t too dark, but a shade darker than other people’s.
The skin was not processed to make it smooth, but the texture of the skin remained.
I think a lot of people have the image of her as having rough skin and being dirty, but my image is that she’s a celestial being (alien), so her style is outstanding, but her face is shaped like an old man, and her cat ears are a moe element. “has not been digested”, so
I wanted to promote the image that everything other than the skeleton, wrinkles, etc. is the model: Fujiko Mine, so I was particular about it.”
saku: “We have a special mannequin to make the wigs that fit PONZU’s head perfectly, and we always make them using that.
The silhouette of the wig has bangs and a straight bob, so it seems easy to set up and create, but the silhouette is difficult to make, so we paid attention to that.
The cat ears are shaped like a real cat with a Gintama design! Because it doesn’t feel like that, I made the size and texture more like a toy than a fluffy cat ear.”
The cosplay, with attention to detail such as Catherine’s dead eyes, cat ears, facial expressions, and dynamic poses, can be said to be the fruit of PONZU’s love for the original work. Like Catherine who suddenly appears in front of the Yorozuya store, it grabs the viewer’s heart and never lets go. The high degree of reproducibility is truly heavenly.
