Nowadays, it's not just ordinary people who are cosplaying—artists, singers, and social media personalities are also joining in. Previously, famous Japanese enka singer and actress Sachiko Kobayashi cosplayed as Muzan Kibutsuji from Demon Slayer. Now, a veteran actress and singer has graced the cosplay world.
70-year-old Japanese singer and TV personality Naoko Ken made an appearance on the variety show GURU GURU 99, where he cosplayed as Beerus from Dragon Ball. His transformation was so great, many netizens laughed and were amazed. Despite her age, she proves that cosplay fun has no limits!
Naoko Ken is a well-known personality in Japan who has been in the entertainment industry for over 50 years. Aside from being a singer who has joined Kōhaku Uta Gassen several times, she has also appeared in many commercials and variety shows. He is also now active on social media, where he shares his life, as well as his YouTube channel which is full of entertaining content.
In this episode of GURU GURU 99, the theme is “Guess Who’s in Cosplay.” His Beerus costume is extremely detailed and costs around 810,000 yen. Even though he's almost unrecognizable because of his costume, guests still catch him because of his demeanor and expression—he definitely still has that “Naoko Ken vibe”!
This is not the first time Naoko Ken has cosplayed. He has also previously costumed as Ginyu from Dragon Ball and Rem from Death Note. Her dedication to cosplay shows that age is no barrier to doing the things that make you happy. I hope this inspires cosplay lovers to pursue their passion!
